OK, I may be really stupid, but I am having serious problems trying to
figure out the whole thing that is happening in your part of the world. I
did a search for maps of Palestine and Israel. I found Israel with no
difficulty, but there is really no such place as "Palestine". So what gives?
How is it that there are people called "Palestinians"? Please explain this
to me, in as simple terms as you can.

Higs,
Katherine

Have a look here it has lots of information

http://www.palestine-net.com/

http://www.palestinefacts.org/

or just type in Palestine into google.com

Yes, SHeila, I have looked at those sites before, but isn't Israel in the
same place geographically? I understand that they are fighting over land,
but if I wanted to send a letter, would I send it to Israel or Palestine?

Katherine,
The land of Israel belongs to the Israeli's/Jews, it is their
birthright, land given to them by God.
The "Palestinians" are of Arab descent, and have no right to the land.

Katherine i will slowly answer you , just now i am not exactly in the
right mood , i try to live as normal as possible , we cleaned the
shelter , a million Israelies will sleep tonight in shelters , because
a Terrorist lead by Iran wanted to escalate fights ,,,,
Also i don`t think political debates are good to be conducted here ,,,

Amongst the poeple by the missiles today were Jewish as well as Arab
people .

Thanks, Mirjam. I appreciate your replying. I wasn't trying to start a
debate, just to get some clarification. Now, thanks to some off-list mails,
and some googling, I have a bit of an understanding.

Higs,
Katherine

I certainly didn't mean to escalate any kind of debate either, I just
stated my opinion, shared by many.....
Hugs,
Noreen
