And, regarding to Nigeria and Iran, both of them are developing countries with little attraction to migrants. So nobody immigrate to those countries.

      They are known as the Jewish people because that's what they have always called themselves: 'Am Israel', meaning 'People of Israel.'
      Jerusalem and the Land of Israel have always been central to Judaism.
      It's a religion about a particular land and a particular capital.
      That's why Jerusalem is mentioned hundreds of times in the Bible (but never in the Quran) and many times in traditional Jewish prayers, and in the Israel National Anthem - the only national anthem in the world that mentions Jerusalem.

      I'm told by people who remember it that in 1945 when the Holocaust was discovered, the feeling on the streets at least here in the UK was that the Jews *must* have somewhere of their own to live.
      People felt that this antisemitism crap had been going on since the fall of Jerusalem in 70AD, and that everything would be OK if the Jews went back to where their remote ancestors had lived 2000y before. It seemed the obvious answer.
      Unfortunately there were already alot of people of many cultures already living there in the Levant.
      I take your point, it might have been better if the Jews had been given sovereign territories in several different uninhabited places across the world.
      I'm sure there could have been Jewish sovereign states established in the remoter parts of North America, South America, in an uninhabited part of central Africa, and on uninhabited islands in the Far East, which would not have inconvenienced anyone else.

It read:
    ''His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.''

    from either side and come away from it almost as uninformed as I went in.
    It seems to me that anti-zionism is clearly separate from antisemitism. That a lot of racists happen also to be anti-zionist seems akin to bigots being anti-Islam. It is not racist to criticize a religion or a government/regime, but when a set of people is closely associated with those entities (Arabs and Muslims on the one hand, and Jews on the other), sometimes critical rhetoric can be co-opted by racists and bigots.

    If a man were accused of a serious crime, tried, and found guilty by a jury of his peers, we would find but little cause to put faith in a claim by him of persecution. However, if he insisted that the reason for his charge of misconduct was only because he believed differently than others, then we might grant him a second trial to assure ourselves he had not been the victim of injustice, believing with confidence that the people would not for a second time find an innocent party guilty of a crime that he did not commit.
    If, at the conclusion of the second trial by another jury of peers, the man is found guilty of an offence against the people, we have no reason to listen to or place belief in continued cries of persecution. What does this have to do with the Jew? Quite simple. Since the year 733 B.C., the Jews have, by their own records and count, been expelled from AT LEAST eighty-seven (87) countries, nations or political entities. Let's see now. Eighty-seven countries, eighty-seven people's courts, eighty-seven guilty verdicts, and eighty-seven cries of persecution.
    The first time, maybe. The second time doubtful. But to have been found worthy of expulsion by the people of AT LEAST eighty-seven different countries for crimes against the people of those countries? Such a claim stretches the limits of human credulity beyond its most liberal bounds of endurance.
    When one comes to the realisation of the fact that these different peoples in most of these cases did not know of each other, or for that matter had never even heard of the other's existence, and yet determined, independently, over a two-thousand-seven-hundred year span of time that the Jews were committing such serious crimes that it was necessary to uproot them lock, stock and barrel in order to drive them from their homes, many times with loss of life and great destruction of property, it is then and only then, that one can truly appreciate the gravity of their character.

    - Team on the left were allowed to ramble and move the goal posts on several occasions, citing personal anecdote as

    other was filled with fanatics and lunatics and perhaps distract you from the fact that nothing of SUBSTANCE WAS

    No Jew is allowed to be a citizen of the Kingdom of Jordan.

      But a religion that one can convert to no matter your race is a cult with all its horrible implications.
      Jews have been mistrusted because their loyalties were questioned and no matter how they were persecuted in the diaspora always seemed to come up with the money from their international network they remained foreign .
      Why after so much humiliation would a Jew stay in Spain France or Germany? Be cause they were money changers .and they made vast profits while living under the protection of European kings.
      Why on earth did they abandon their own land which they claim god had bequeathed them

      What Greenstein - as well as the two Israeli Israel-haters - would like to see is Israel becoming a Moslem-majority state - which would certainly be under Sharia law - in which Jews would be third-class citizens and stoned again when praying at the Western Wall, as they were before independence.
      The Law of Return would be amended to prevent Jews from immigrating and once again, Jews would be trapped in countries where they are persecuted.
      That's why I'm proud to say that I support Israel and the Zionist cause.

    So the clear result of this debate is that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitic. Which is very logical.
    My observations are that the defence that the zionists always use are: why focus only on Israel’s actions when other regimes are doing bad things (diversion), the Arabs/Palestinians had their chance in 1947 to have a homeland but rejected the proposal (Palestinians had 100% of the land then zionists came from other countries and committed massacres and ethnically cleansed them, then offered them less than 50% of the land! Who on earth would accept such a proposal?!), Israel is not an apartheid because Arab Israelis have full citizenship rights (Arab Israelis are treated as second class citizens and the occupied Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza are simply treated like animals which Israel does not like to include in the equation but they have occupied them and controlled them for 70 years to date, so clearly an apartheid!), and they deny white phosphorous attacks and other atrocities they’ve committed (lie lie lie!).
