no one is trying to erase Jewish history, it just never existed in the Middle East to begin with. Judaism is a religion, not a society, not a way of life...a religion. Just as today not many would agree with an Islamic state, I don't agree with a Jewish state. This isn't because I hate Jews, I know there's plenty of Arab Jews that descend from the Mid East that live in Israel today and plenty more that want nothing to do with it because they see right through it. Fact is that on top of the Arab Jews there's Jews from all over the world that moved to Israel because all of a sudden it was their "promised land". Get real buddy, the state doesn't belong there, it clearly is there for one reason and one reason only and that is a political stronghold and the people running it have you guys buying all their BS.
2.) We live in the 21st century, why are you talking to me about Phoenicians? I was born Arab, therefore I'm Arab. And good, we agree, anyone of Mid Eastern descent has the right to *any* Mid Eastern land...so how about we get rid of all the settlers that came to Israel from outside the Middle East and committed genocide on a Middle Eastern people as a whole and fed the world a lie that most Israeli's themselves are finding hard to believe nowadays.
3.) Darn! (I don't care, only people giving you thumbs up are Jewish extremists who are so blinded from reality, *you* shouldn't get too excited).
