The name was JUDEA, not Palestine. This land always was and is today a strateigic location, being in the centre of Arabia, and of three continents - namely Africa, Europe and Asia. Ancient legend has it this is the centre of the earth's landmass [depicted today by aeriel topography], and the centre or beginning point of the universe.

Arabs believe Arabia is the center of the Universe too. Palestine is on the African rift valley, that stretches from the middle of Africa.

You've stated here many times in the past that Christianity had no history in Palestine... yet here you discuss Christian Jews and the extraordinary step of the Jews putting an anti-Christian prayer into the Amida, at a shockingly early date. I think you are close to correct here, but how do we reconcile this view into your previous statements? Previously, you must have been young and impetuous. There can be little doubt that we will eventually defeat the Arabs as decisively as Bar Kochba dispatched the Romans. The only requirement is that we all faithfully follow our messianic leaders. |

Judea and Israel is not in Africa, but Asia Minor. Palestine & Jordan are recent and ficticious, non-historical names manufactured with an agenda.

I wish the problems can be solved without defeating anyone. But this would require both christianity and islam not to attach the negation of the Jews as their only path to salvation. Unfortunately, this is not the case, and that the small nation of Israel even survives today is a miracle of miracles.

Premjan's talking about a "divergent plate boundary," or rift zone that extends from Mozambique in East Africa through Tanzania and Kenya, and meets Red Sea Rift at the Afar Depression Triple Junction. The Red Sea Rift meets the Dead Sea Transform Fault south of the Sinai peninsula and that fault system then proceeds north through the the Gulf of Aqaba, the Wadi Arabah, the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan Valley and on to the Beqaa Valley in Lebanon. Technically Palestine & Jordan are on either side of the Dead Sea Transform which is structurally related to and intersects with the East African Rift and many people today casually refer to the whole system as "The Great Rift" or simply "The East Africa Rift." BTW, still waiting for those historical references Joe. |

Re Titus, Berenice and Vaspasian. This is found on most histrical links. Titus met Berenice via his father, while she was also in an incestous affair with her brother. Titus even assassinated an innocent man because he suspected that man had eyes for his obsessed woman. Vespasian moved from Berenice knowing his son was an uncontrollable maniac. |
