It's a 2003 article. Very old news.

There is no requirements in the Noachide laws to believe in God.

You don't actually know the Noachide laws, do you? Or, for that matter, what status the observance of these laws confers upon...

I am so fascinated by all this talk of dividing Jerusalem. How do they think it's going to work, in practice? Berlin wall-style? Or do they think the division of the city isn't going to require...

"Peace" and "Palestinian state" are not the same thing. You can have a Palestinian state and no peace.

The Palestine Papers don't show any Palestinian willingness to compromise. There were no...

My guess? Twelve. If that.

I remember that study. It's a complete misinterpretation of its findings.

What the study did was compare the genetic make-up of the Jews from different parts of the world with that of the...

1) Learn to use the goddamn quote function.

2) Learn to goddamn Google.

3) If you can't learn to goddamn Google, at least learn to go to the goddamn Wikipedia before you type nonsense. And if...

Polite? You barge in here acting like a prophet of God bringing a new and shiny truth to the masses, and you don't know the basic things. This is something that happens on this forum all the time,...

1) You're not going to impress anyone with Finkelstein's ramblings around here. The name is too well known; he has a history of absolutely nutty statements against Israel, and not just Israel.

For...

That's the thing- he isn't promising a new dea, he is rolling back the old ones. This is a declaration of downgrading the US-Israel alliance across the board, veiled as a generous offer.

You're...

How can siding with the EDL possibly be a good idea on any level?

Just found this on The Guardian's corrections page:


Well, they were certainly defending an injustice, but what does the Jewish tradition have to do with it?

Another gem:

She has already converted to Islam but she's just starting to read the book?!?

Ovadia Yosef doesn't run Shas. The Shas runs Ovadia Yosef.

Yosef is respected for past fame as one of the most important Halachic authorities of the last century. But today, he is a senile old...

And therein lied your problem.

Australians seem to have a lot of interest in Israel. When I was there last November, saying that I was from Israel would instantly endear me to most people. They asked LOTS of questions about the...

Okay, it's like this. If you're born from Jewish parents, you're Jewish. If you convert to Judaism, you become Jewish.

Think about it being a lot like family. You can be born into the family, or...

Not in the West Bank, though. In the Golan. (Kibbutz Merom ha-Golan).

I did. Now please, look at it yourself. On the map.

Ariel is part of a settlement bloc which has major strategic significance because it protects Israel's 9-mile wide "waist". Due to the local...

A military-only deployment will not allow you to control vitally important areas over a significant amount of time. Troops, checkpoints and closed military zones get reshuffled on the whim of every...

"Afraid of the future"? Don't know where you live, but I, and every other Israeli, we're all going to have to live through that future. It is more than reasonable to examine and anticipate likely...

Gee, of course. It's not as if the travellers to Jerusalem were in any danger when Latrun was under Arab control, right?

Why not?


Not really the case, no. Israel needs certain strategic areas which directly threaten key population centers and roads. Israel needs to ensure the safety and access to the main Jewish...

Depends.

Israeli radio isn't very good learning really. The news readers speak with the "high" Hebrew of the founders' generation: their accent is very different from how Hebrew is normally...

They know full well no ethnic cleansing is ever going to happen... not by Israel, anyhow.
