Merry Christmas er happy holidays Abu, God bless you, and your family and those you hold near~ Rev Anarchist aka Rev Greg
Many thanks for the "This land is mine" video. I found it to be very telling. I am just back from a week in Istanbul. WOW!! In November we go to Egypt (Marsa Alam). I will continue to ask questions :-) You are one of my top-3 posters. KK
"The problem is the USA gives them so much power and it is actually against US interests. But the good thing is the world is waking up. Slowly...." That's why I support Ron Paul!
"Our region is very religious and pious and you must to be fair take that into consideration because if you dont it is meaningless. It needs a foundation and is not just about chopping up land into districts." Great point. I guess I left that out because I agree that it needs to be about moving past that. An Israel-Palestine that doesn't champion anyone as a "chosen people" would be a great model for Muslims, Jews and Christians living together in a highly disputed land. I think it would have an epic positive effect. The only way to make that happen though would be to connect Non-Zionist Jews with Non-Jihad Muslims and Non-Evangelist Christians in the Region to form an organization to push forward an "Equal Rights Single State." Maybe a "Party" that is represented in both Israel and Palestine that makes a single-state Constitution their single Goal. Are there any networks you could think of where these people could be found or join together? Maybe even making a "group" on social networks called "Jews, Muslims and Christians for an Israeli-Palestinian Single-State" ? I've heard from one other Palestinian who supported this idea, I have his contact and blog link in a post on a forum that is unfortunately down today. Once I can access it I'll link it up.
What do you think of this? http://freeindependentsun.com/republic/israel-palestine-a-single-state-solution-w-map/

I dont know. I dont know that movie. It is a picture of an Egyptian sufi dancer. They are famous in Egypt and Turkey. Sometimes they are called whirling dervish. They are called Sufi after wool from sheep which their clothes are made of. They are the mystical sect of Muslims and are popular in upper Egypt. Here is a picture of another more colourful. http://www.sandierpastures.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/p-whirling-dervish3-with-wm-450x299.jpg
