So, why is it that the inhabitants of the West Bank, previously ruled by Jordan, didn't get to vote in Jordanian elections? Is it because the Jordanian authorities didn't believe them to be citizens in their own land? What is it that makes anyone think that Jerusalem isn't the capitol of Israel? Gaza: "unwanted by Israel, unwanted by the Arabs and even by many Palestinians, forlorn, violent, seething, unlivable". So, I wonder why it is that the people in Gaza, previously ruled by Egypt, don't get any financial help from the other Middle-eastern nations. It's just rockets and more rockets. "Rockets launched toward civilian populations, schools, a college, rockets that slammed through private homes, children's bedrooms in the blue collar Israeli towns like Sderot." And, for what, so the Hamas terrorists would have their own special place in hell? Split the country down the middle and build a wall on either side, to what keep the Hamas inside as they travel from Gaza to the West Bank?
