Would Israel have enjoyed the same support from USA in particular and EU in general as it does now, if, Israelis were not predomuinantly, white population?
The same question viz a viz palestinian and arab support.
Naturally the whole world who are christianity by faith will give support to Israel for the very reasons of their origin of faith. Its not only the super powers like the US and EU who are seen on the front line of support but the little little voice scattered through out Asia and the North Americas. Literally, if the muslims pray towards the Makkah, the christian would pray towards Jerusalem.
getting back to the topic.. I am sure that the Red Sea pedestrians would enjoy the same support, because of their "influence" in politics, industry and media.
Gypsy,thats a very smart way of dealing with the guilt. And what do you mean that they look like arabs? If you mean looking like light skinned arabs of syrian, palestinian type, or brown skinned like natives of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Emirates etc.
It cannot be just money, money might be a major factor when it comes for foreign policies of governments but we also see that European and American people esp whites are sympathetic to Israeli cause.
According to this wikipedia article nearly 80% jews of Israel come from european regions.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Israel
I had to point this out to distinguish the difference. Many are still mixing politics with religion. I hear MANY people cursing a Jew, because by association they assume they're Zionists. (well majority are, but not all.
@ hapy,i second what Qatariladysaid,they're considered middle-eastern(brown), not white mate...The support they enjoy is because the Jews control wall street & have a significant presence in the EU financial market as well & money talks right?!...Also a good number of non-Israeli Jewish people around the world support Israel financially & otherwise so hopefully this answers your question...

The question is all wrong...
It has little to do with black or white, it has to do with religious people declaring land holy and thus protecting from distance their holy sites.

You're pleasing your wife and so does your mother in law...:)) Your wife is the Super Power here.
This is a win-win visit for your own interest too..:)
We're off topic again!
Salam
Yep.. to practise patience and self-control :)
So, going to visit the mother in law is classed as mutually beneficial ??
It's mutual if no party feels under pressure to accept things they would normaly reject.
It is mutual .. i don't want to piss them off because they can hurt me in many ways.. so both our interests are served :)
Diplomacy and politics both are utterly illusive and hypotactic. Every party will want something for themselves.
I agree it's not always mutual and not always for the interest of the grassroots.
Salam
I cannot describe it as 'mutual' though :)
Fear repelling is an interest/benefit too. The outcome would be protection.
Salam
If it's about race the whole world will be impartial because we're cousins.
It has more to do with fear maybe not mutual interest. Remember JFK, Clinton and what's-her-name?
Back to the topic, race has nothing to do with it, it's about mutual benefits.
Salam
Thread Hijack Alert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
getting back to the topic.. I am sure that the Red Sea pedestrians would enjoy the same support, because of their "influence" in politics, industry and media.
We will know if it's beef or pork bacon, when the QLer tells us what kind of wine they're having with the meal...:))
I don't know, but generally Muslims don't like to use the word bacon or mortadella. Although hotels serving Muslim meals use these terms.
Salam
Beef bacon is the most disgusting thing ever created.
NOT if its Beef Bacon..
If someone mentioned on the lunch thread they're going to eat bacon with eggs tonight, Hell will descend on earth, I know what you mean.
Salam
Simply pointing out a scenario on how the lunch thread could be turned to religion.
Despite of not agreeing with Khaid_the_tiger on many of his posts, yet I believe he's entitled to his opinion.
Salam
LOL @ lunch means religion.
I'm waiting for Khalid to post something on KSA's thread about Healthy Islamic Eating Habits or something. :P
You're right..
What I find strange is that with a whole wide world out there, so many non religious people can focus on religion so much :)
Color means religion on QL,
Race means religion on QL,
Your favorite movie means religion on QL,
What's for lunch means religion on QL and
Religion leads to something absolutely irreligious on QL.
Salam
hows this a religious thread?
This was NOT supposed to be religious.. It was about colour..:O)
I'm not boycotting threads, I'm selective, you can do the same.
Salam
Late, but not too late: BOYCOTT RELIGIOUS THREADS!!
I find many look darker skinned. And of course there are black African Jews.
Also you seem to be confusing me with someone who's has something to do with all this. I don't.
Gypsy,thats a very smart way of dealing with the guilt. And what do you mean that they look like arabs? If you mean looking like light skinned arabs of syrian, palestinian type, or brown skinned like natives of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Emirates etc.
Maybe you're looking for the word caucasian?
Now you have more years of guilt to add to that..Like cure guilt with even more guilt!
A Jew is not black or white.. He may be a kike, a yid, a heebie, a hook-nose, kosher or a Red Sea pedestrian, but not white...
SOME are white, and then not really European white. They have a unique look.
If we are sympathetic to them it's because we are dealing with about a 1000 years worth of guilt for how they were treated.
I have seen them on tv and they look white like lippi tivini and netenyaho
It cannot be just money, money might be a major factor when it comes for foreign policies of governments but we also see that European and American people esp whites are sympathetic to Israeli cause.

Well I highly question if Hapy's seen one if he/she doesn't know they aren't white. :P
If not in real life, we see them on TV.
In fact I have a Jewish friend whom I appreciate along with his family.
Salam
Have you ever actually met a Jew??? Most of them aren't white, they looked Arab.
I had to point this out to distinguish the difference. Many are still mixing politics with religion. I hear MANY people cursing a Jew, because by association they assume they're Zionists. (well majority are, but not all.
Besides, there are Arab traitors too.
Salam
Sure Happy, Zionism is an ideology not a race.
In Arabic we say Israelis and Arabs or Jews and Muslims are cousins. I will not apply this same statement to Zionists for one obvious reason.
Salam
Israelis and Arabs come from the same race, both are semitist. It's like gadarene said..money talks.
yep gadarene, money...
The Palestinians are not black either. As has been pointed out by many, race is irrelevant.
Salam
@ hapy,i second what Qatariladysaid,they're considered middle-eastern(brown), not white mate...The support they enjoy is because the Jews control wall street & have a significant presence in the EU financial market as well & money talks right?!...Also a good number of non-Israeli Jewish people around the world support Israel financially & otherwise so hopefully this answers your question...
well donosa, time to upgrade myself
They're not considered really white.
