    It's Israel that is the root cause of why there are terrorist today If you'r goin to base their history in their history book 'the bible', Moses let them out of Egypt... after so many years, they found a land they called promise land, a land they said their god promised to give them, a land that have original settlers, they conquered it and declared it their own! I'm not so sure if they are the Palestinians or not. This is why up to this days, the Middle East has this land dispute issues between Israel & their Arab neighbors, and The United states is siding with Israel, with their superior firepower, these Arab countries can't fight with them head-on, but to resort to guerilla warfare, that's why some Arabs or Muslims becomes terrorist...Do you agree?

    That's an oversimplification of a very complicated problem.

    Actually their history book is quite accurate in terms of warfare waged then. They were able to conquer the Canaan.

    FYI - modern day Palestinians / Muslims didn't reside in the Palestine lands until a century ago.

    That is because some Arabs do not agree with the UN Resolution calling for the establishment of the State of Israel and the land apportioned to them.

    The last time I checked - most Arab countries buy weapons from the USA.

    Those people (that you refer to as "some") are what you call fundamentalist / extremist. Using religion in this case to rally up supporters for their cause.

    Well - blaming solelly Israel for all the world's troubles is also one form of extremism.

    My first and final post on this thread:

    I don't agree. It's like saying the Jews are the ones who caused WWII. Frankly, "the Jews are the cause of the world's - and Germany's - problems" was Hitler's train of thought when he started purging the Jews. Do any of us want here want to have Hitler's train of thought? I don't know about you but I don't.

    If anybody of you were are an Israelite or a Jew, would you liked to be tagged as the cause of the world's troubles? I think not.

    I also don't want to say that it is our brother Moslems that are causing the world's problems.

    In my frank opinion, it's every race that lives in this planet we call Earth that collectively caused, causes and will cause the world's troubles.

    Finally, I have a ton of problems of my own that I need to solve first so I won't give much time (except for this one post) to theorizing, arguing, articulating and explaining why a race is the cause of a world's problem.

    Want to help the world get rid of it's problems? Let's first each figure out how to solve our own problems first before figuring out the causes of the world's problems. Remember the saying "Charity begins with oneself and at home" - and charity here isn't limited to giving only.

    Peace.

    butter or cheese? :popcorn:

    ok, i have it in me to make at least one serious post tonight.

    it's not a race, country or religion that is the cause of most of the world's trouble. it's ignorant, bigoted people that generalize, stereotype and look for/ or seek to magnify issues.

    An idiot's first guide to debate: oversimplify everything.

    Jeez, why stop at terrorism? Since you stated that Israel is the cause of the world's troubles, I vote to blame the following on the Israelis:

    1. Global warming
    2. Asian financial crisis of the 90s
    3. Asian tsunami
    4. Hurricane Katrina
    5. Breakup of Princess Diana and Prince Charles
    6. Death of Princess Diana
    7. Marriage of Prince Charles and Camilla
    8. The breakup of the Beatles
    9. Death of John Lennon
    10. Death of Elvis Presley (this is doubtful as I believe he is still alive and living in a retirement home somewhere in Florida.)
    11. Assasination of JFK (also doubtful as I believe he is still alive and living in a retirement home somewhere in Florida together with Elvis.)
    12. The Florida mis-count allowing George W Bush to be president
    13. Arnold becoming California governor
    14. Breakup of Ate Shawie and Gabby Concepcion
    15. The disbandment of the Eraserheads
    16. Mga kotong cops sa EDSA
    17. Yung color-coding scheme
    18. Typhoon Milenyo
    19. The sinking of the Titanic (ignore the fact that the sinking of the Titanic pre-dates the creation of the state of Israel, but since we're blaming Israel for everything, might as well blame them for this)
    20. England winning the 2005 Ashes
    21. Italy winning the 2006 World Cup
    22. Philippines getting only silver medals in boxing in two Olympics (forgot which)
    23. Paris Hilton

    That's all I can think of at the moment. Please feel free to add more tragedies you can think of.

    To Moderators:
    I will not apologise for making the above post. I believe that this thread is idiotic, juvenile and lacks merit, and thus, requires this appropriate response.

    I hope this post is just to get a reaction and that you don't actually believe your statement. The problem is people's lack of tolerance for each others differences. There is enough blame to go around for the problems in the Middle East from Israel, the Arab countries, and the western world. However, pinning the blame on anyone does not really solve the problem. Also keep in mind that the Palestinian problem isn't just a Muslim problem since there are Christian Palestinians involved too. The Muslim terrorist do not represent a majority of the followers of that religion. As a matter of fact the terrorist are fighting a jihad based on a fatwah issued by person(Osama bin Laden) that does have authority to issue such things. Bin Laden is not a Mufti and under Sharia law he cannot issue a fatwah for a jihad.

    Zeus, sorry to say but your argument is too shallow and one-sided.

    Like what others have said, WORLD TROUBLE??? How juvenile is that?

    If one country is causing world trouble, it'll be the US since they're the most influencial.

    If you're basing it on ideology, then religion is to blame.

    At the end of it all, greed and intolerance is the world's trouble.

    Like as if terrorism and religious arguments will end if Israel is wiped off the map.
