Reply #104: Universal justice and the first generation of Israeli leaders......... [View All]

....(i dont know what a universal justice is).....

The following quotes may help you:
1. "Likewise, the concept of universal justice is at the core of Jewish religious thinking. Israeli critics of the messianic argument argue that by retaining the entire land, Israel is creating an injustice for the Palestinian Arab population of the territories."

2. “.....it is almost heartening to look back at the first generation of Israeli leaders, who openly confessed that their claims to the land of Palestine cannot be grounded in universal justice, that we are dealing with a simple war of conquest between two groups where no mediation is possible. Here is what David Ben-Gurion wrote:

Everyone can see the weight of the problems in the relations between Arabs and Jews. But no one sees that there is no solution to these problems. There is no solution! Here is an abyss, and nothing can link its two sides … We as a people want this land to be ours; the Arabs as a people want this land to be theirs."



The first generation of Israeli leaders would have agreed with me. Zionism is immoral.
