JPaul brought up THE strongest argument for the Israeli state. What makes those settlements any more illegal than an English "settlement" on Irish land?
He did not say that !
He said this....
The partitioning of Ireland didn't go down particularly well, but the situation is improving. Two steps forward and one step back, granted, but moving forward.
he also said this
but I admit I could have been clearer about it. When I said "the strongest argument" I was talking about the concept of "claiming" or "settling" land in general, not the specific point I was making. I posted too quickly.History is full of examples of people taking the land from others and "settling" it.[/quote]
