Reply #67: A friend of mine was born in a displaced persons' camp in Europe. [View All]

Her family picked themselves up with the help of other Jews, moved to America and started over. They didn't wallow in camps for generations and they weren't left to rot there by their co-religionists. So we know what Jews would do if "you and everyone you know were being oppressed by an alien people and had been since you were born in a refugee camp" because we know what they did. Why do you think it's beyond the capacity of Palestinians to do the same and how many generations do you think should be sacrificed to an all or nothing principle?
BTW, Jews are not descendants of Europeans and Americans. European and American Jews are descendants of Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews and those who wish to return to their ancestral homeland deserve your understanding.
