Palestine conflict..the end of a Palestinian state in middle east?

good point...but there are so many different factions within the arab community in the middle east..there are those that favour the US in particular such as Saudi Arabia and there are the "rogue " states such as Iran where militant fundamentalism is at the core of soociety..it is Iran in fact which arms Hammas...basically the original oil rich state favour the US because their technologies were supplied to enable the ruling families to prosper..you have to remember that the political makeup of all the arab states is consistent in its inconsistency...Saudi Arabias arms and air force where of course supplied by the US which is a valuable source of revenue to the US.... the whole key to the middle east is oil...despite the noises coming from the US about having oil resrves for decades the truth of the matter is that US oil at home is declining rapidly...already a net importer of oil(because of dwindling reserves and massive consumption) this situation will only worsen as time goes on..some people in the US believe ther may be less than 10 years supply of oil reserves..if this proves correct the US dependency upon the Saudis will increase dramatically..recently an arab spokesman stated that idf the US continues its expansion into the development of bio-fuels the Arabs will cut oil supply which will result in higher prices and possible economic problems for the whole world..mainly the reason the other arab countries dont help the Palestinians is because they dont want to fall.. fowl of either the Saudis or the Americans.The Hammas faction seeks to destroy Israel an ally of the US...this alone means that the Palestinians will be ignored by the rest of the arabs...they just dont want to upset an already upset apple cart any further...

I'll tell you why they don't "help" to the Palestinians- they know they can't fight with Israel because if they do, Israel will probably win. When Israel was founded, in 1948, all Arabs countries in the area (7 Arab armies totally) attacked Israel and tried to destroy the jewish country. In the end, Israel won the war and took important lands for the security of Israel.

where do you get the idea that israel as it stands today is the "jewish homeland"? is this purely on your biblical knowledge?The whole area which is now the middle east was home to numerous peoples...or tribes....the area was well known as a nomadic homeland for many peoples..the jews being one of them....the bible puts the twist of the jewish homeland as the land of milk and honey which was the fertile land between the tigris and the euphrates rivers...many many many miles from where the state of israel now exists..it is not for the Palestinians to give up concessions for their own land///They have a RIGHT to exist just as much as the jews....jerusalem is as much a arab city as a jewish and or christian city....the bible was the original written form of spin doctoring....wandering tribes wanderd to gain new pasture for their livestock..that is the way they lived...settling down in Israel is the spin that was put on this issue...the bottom line is the West dont give a fig for the Palestinians and the Saudis and other arab states dont see anything in it to their benefit to fight the palestinian cause..thast why the Palestinians are on their own and have had no option to resort to terrorism....when you are in a corner my friend youj fight anyway you can....
