1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,760
certainly the Arabs have a much greater

2
00:00:02,159 --> 00:00:05,480
claim because they've had a longer

3
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:08,599
history of inhabitants of actual

4
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:10,080
residents in Palestine than the Jews did

5
00:00:08,599 --> 00:00:11,679
if you look at the history of Palestine

6
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,639
there's been some quite interesting work

7
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:15,679
done by biblical

8
00:00:13,639 --> 00:00:18,359
archaeologists you'll see that the

9
00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:20,400
period of actual Israelite as it was

10
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:23,680
called in the Old Testament dominance in

11
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:26,240
Palestine amounts to about 200 to 250

12
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,160
years but there were moabites there were

13
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:30,199
jebusites there were Canaanites there

14
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,200
were Philistines there were many many

15
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:35,879
other people in Palestine at the time

16
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:38,719
and before and after and to isolate one

17
00:00:35,879 --> 00:00:40,760
of them and say that's the real owner of

18
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:42,719
the land I mean that is that is

19
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,399
fundamentalism because the only way you

20
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:46,800
can back it up is say well God gave it

21
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:49,000
to us yes but I mean Christians think

22
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,399
that God gave it to them and Muslims

23
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,960
think that God gave it to them I mean

24
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:54,800
that's not a rational argument nobody

25
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,760
has a claim that overrides all the

26
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:59,519
others and entitles that person with

27
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:01,280
that so-called claim to drive people out

28
00:00:59,519 --> 00:01:04,000
I mean that's the

29
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:06,360
point I mean Jews have a claim in I've

30
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,159
never denied that of course they do but

31
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,439
is it a claim that that can tell a

32
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,119
Palestinian well you've got to leave

33
00:01:09,439 --> 00:01:13,799
this house because I I mean I got it

34
00:01:11,119 --> 00:01:16,119
3,000 years ago I mean it's true I come

35
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:17,840
from Poland or from Brooklyn but I have

36
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:21,119
a bigger right to this house than you do

37
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,840
so get out that's I I I I I'm sorry I

38
00:01:21,119 --> 00:01:26,040
disagree with that with that kind of

39
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,040
logic uh
