Re: I don't like Obama's proposal that Israel should return to its pre-1967 borders
It was nearly all extracts from a timeline Kev. I cannot be held responsible for internet. If I am wrong I will admit it.:)
Aye and pigs will fly.:lol:
Incidentally, the reason pork was prohibited was because the neighbouring tribe kept pigs and the Israelites wanted to put them out of business.

Or bred in with the Israelites. The only historical reference I know of is the fabrication of what has become our modern day monotheistic system, but I'm totally guessing on all other historical aspects. "Cross" breeding is how almost any defined/specific ethnicity is phased out over time.

Who are/were the Israelites?
Before 1250 B.C. (Before Computers) the Israelites were a nomadic tribe in the area around Jordan.
1250 BC: Israelites began to conquer and settle the land of Canaan on the eastern Mediterranean coast.
We can assume from this that the land originally belonged to the Canaanites (Possibly the modern day Palestinians)and definitely not the Israelites.
I'm with boab on this. Remember the 40 years of wandering the desert, oleg? Sounds pretty f-ing nomadic to me...
