Factoring: I gave the Christian perspective because there are 2 billion Christians in the world. Are you saying all 2 billion Christians are deeply fanatical dangerous nuts? And you call ME a bigot???
To John: Document the so-called genocide that Israel has committed against the Palestinians. What percentage of their population has the IDF killed? Over what period of time? Were any of these deaths justified?
Then take a look at historical records on East Timoor, Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, Rwanda, Nazi Germany, and the current situation in Sudan.
Can you tell me, quantitatively how these other examples of real genocide compare with your allegations of Israeli genocide against Palestinians????

John, you are so close to actually getting it. The Israelis are not going to go away. They will not give up Israel and move back into the diaspora. If the Arab armies attack again, they will defend themselves down to the last man.
If the Palestinians actually recognize the right of Israel to exist, then the violence will stop.
Or if all the Jews are dead, then Arab violence against Jews will end but Arab on Arab violence and anti-Christian violence will continue.
As for land concessions by Israel, look at the 1979 Peace Treaty with Egypt. Israel gave back 94% of the land it conquered in 1967 to Egypt. Does that count as a land concession? Setting up the PA amounts to a land concession. The Oslo Accords, had they been properly implemented, would have amounted to a land concession to Palestinians 5 years after the ink was dry. It didnt happen because Arafat didnt stop the terror attacks.
You are woefully uninformed about some very basic and important points to be making the serious charges you are making.
Start with explaining how the disputed territories came to be land "owned by the Palestinians."
Document your charges!
