luckizuchinni Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Q: And in that light: What is an "Israeli"? What a funny question. Israel is a country, recognized by the UN. An "Israeli" is a citizen of the country no matter their religions or ethnic bent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) I am confused kuffki and Ulysses G. keep telling me that there was never a Palestine so in what Palestine was Mark Twain then? There was never an Arab country called Palestine or a people called Palestinian. There was a barren geographical area - think Sahara Desert - with very few residents outside of Jerusalem (which was already mostly Jews 150 years ago). Edited May 13, 2011 by Ulysses G.

An "Israeli" is a citizen of the country no matter their religions or ethnic bent. Don't take it out of the context. What is an "Israeli" when the so called "Palestinians" are just illegal immigrants from somewhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
