Like I said, he was wrong: the population of Palestine in the early 19th century was 350,000, in 1860 it was 411,000 and in 1900 about 600,000 of whom 94% were Arabs, Christian and Muslim. In 1914 Palestine had a population of 657,000 Muslim Arabs, 81,000 Christian Arabs, and 59,000 Jews

Mark Twain was wrong. Who, for example, was involved in the Palestinian Revolt if there was no one living there? Peasants' revolt in Palestine - Wikipedia

Israel has a right to exist but NOT at the expense of the inhabitants who were there prior to 1948

They already live on the West Bank as well and can stay there as far as I'm concerned. And Algeria's population are Berbers and Moors as well as Arabs. Your suggestion is like saying Americans of European origin should relocate to Europe

I don't think there's anything honourable in being a colonial power and glad we gave up that nonsense last century. We weren't very good at it but, then again, neither was anyone else.

No it gives the lie to your 'socialized medicine' clap trap; the NHS is not the only health care provided in the UK

He died because we don't keep people alive artificially indefinitely when there is no hope. Neither do you; name a medical insurance company in the US which will pay for someone who is brain dead to be kept alive indefinitely

Are insults all you have? Clearly you don't have an argument as you are stooping to this level

Alfie was not killed. He died. Quit with the misinformation. And all the cases you cited could have gone private, same as in the States

Does anyone know why nations that hold nuclear weapons can demand that other nations are not allowed them, without understanding how hypocritical they look?

No the Guardian is a decent rag. But I'm surprised you cited it as it's pretty liberal by your standards and the articles are what you would characterise as 'whining' as they illustrate the underfunding problems of the NHS

Because I have a sense of decency. ..i don't want to have to wash my hands afterwards

Have you looked at their Sidebar of Shame? Very family friendly...
