So lets see if I understand this correctly. The Palestinians did not destroy government buildings or military bases. Both of which they would need for the administration and secuirty of their land. They did however destroy synagogues. how many Jews now live in these areas? Or right, none. So how useful are those synagogues? Oh, I guess they are not useful. So they kept what they needed and destroyed what they did not need. And they world is not up in arms over this? How can it be? how to handle the synagogues was a touchy issue that was going to leave someone unhappy. They probably should have been moved. Feasibility well that's another question. But it would have be the most politically acceptable solution. The Jews who worshipped there would have had the peace of mind that their houses of worship still existed and could be accessed etc... And the Palestinians wouldn't have to keep up buildings that they would never use. By the way, what happened to the Mosques that were in these areas prior to the Israelis taking control? Michael, I know its hard to believe but the entire world isn't out to get you, all the Jews or Israelis. Yeah, there are some that are, they should be treated harshly. However, the over dramatization of each and every situation gets old and actually takes away from your arguements and cause. The Jews will not eliminate all their foes, nor will their foes eliminate them. They've been fighting for what seems like forever. They've been at it since the inception of modern Israel (1948?). Let's try a new approach. Let's try compromise and see where it gets us. Its a new approach and it will have its ups and downs (destroying synagogues etc...), but whats the alternative? Continue to fight and kill each other? Nobody has really tried a peaceful solution. Now that Arafat is gone let's give it try.
