Reply #65: I agree with you there, though it's not addressing the content of my post. [View All]

I'm wondering if you replied to me by mistake.

I think that any sort of ultimate peace agreement is going to have to deal, not only with land issues, but with some sort of reparations for the Palestinian people, maybe coming from the international community as a whole, since Israel was really established by the international community, and it was arguably necessary due to the failings of that community towards the Jews, both during and after WWII, and then they of course followed up by failing the Palestinian people.

But that's a completely different issue than the one I was addressing in my post. I was replying to someone who suggested that the Israel/Palestine situation isn't really that different than the partition that set up Pakistan which was accompanied by large scale population transfers. I was just telling her how I thought the two situations differed.
