What land are you talking about? Be more specific.

Great, another thread on Palestine/Israel. Shanek- quick, tell us how teachers should arm themselves to prevent school shootings.

 

[LFTKBS]

There should be a third option: Quit with the God talk and just share, already.

 

[UnrepentantSinner]

Damn, I thought this was a Pete Seegar thread.

This Land Is Mine


From behind these walls I hear your song
Oh, sweet words
The music that you play lights up my world
The sweetest that I’ve heard
Could it be that I’ve been touched and turned
Oh Lord, please finally…finally things are changing

[Chorus:]
This land is mine but I’ll let you rule
I let you navigate and demand
Just as long as you know…this land is mine
So find your home and settle in
Ohhh, I’m ready to let you in
Just as long as we know…this land is mine

After all the battles and the wars
The scars and loss
I’m still the queen of my domain
and feeling stronger now
The walls are down a little more each day
Since you came, finally…finally things are changing

[Chorus]

Follow the days I’ve travelled alone
In this cold and colorless place till now
It’s what I had to pay

[Chorus]

This land is mine and I let you rule
I let you navigate on demand
Just as long as you know…this land is mine

 

[Vitnir]

Without answering the question, it has always been and will always be - the ones with the military force to claim it

This land is your land,
This land is my land,
From California
To the New York Island,
From the redwood forest,
To the Gulf stream waters,
This land was made for you and me.

As I was walking,
That ribbon of highway,
I saw above me
That endless skyway,
I saw below me
That golden valley.
This land was made for you and me.

I've roamed and rambled
And I've followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me

The sun comes shining
As I was strolling
The wheat fields waving
And the dust clouds rolling
The fog was lifting a voice come chanting
This land was made for you and me

As I was walkin'
I saw a sign there
And that sign said no trespassin'
But on the other side
It didn't say nothin!
Now that side was made for you and me!

In the squares of the city
In the shadow of the steeple
Near the relief office
I see my people
And some are grumblin'
And some are wonderin'
If this land's still made for you and me.

Nobody living can ever stop me
As I go walking
That freedom highway
Nobody living can make me turn back
This land was made for you and me

The land belongs to those who work it with thier hands.
Mexican revolution.

Id have different answer if this was 1940's . Israel exists, and its not going anywhere. I dontthink the UN had the authority to give Isreal the land way back, but hey water underthe bridge.

Shift to today. There should be a Palistine adn the settlers ought to back off. Jerusalem needs to be split, or made into some crazy separate city/state.

 

[Kodiak]

Both should share it, IMO...

Thanks again, UN...

 

[PygmyPlaidGiraffe]

False dilemma


If the land does not belong to the Jews then it belongs to the Palestinians. (or, vice versa)

 

[peptoabysmal]
