I'll point something out on Islam. The religion is very very
similar to Christianity(in fact they consider early Jews to
actually be early Muslims) the thing is its a younger religion
then Christianity. If you look at the respective ages of the
religions, the crusades happened at about the same age for
Christianity(1300 ish years) they will learn.  All of that being
said, there is no reason to expect Israel to just take it.  And
millwad/anyone else who mentions the 1947 treaty as the actual
boundaries of Palestine, that's incredibly stupid. You know who
refused that treaty? Palestine. The fought a war and attempted
to create a larger area for themselves and lost and lost land in
the process. This has happened several times throughout history.
You can't start an expansionist war, lose said war then claim
that the land you lost in said war is still yours. raiderfan19
