Civilisation culminates in Gaza?

This is part of an email sent when something else was hidden:
"I once read about a Jewish girl in a Baltic state who agreed to speak in support of the Balfour Declaration before she had read it. Did read it, and because the posters were already out, was on the platform, but did not speak. Later saying that there was not enough room or water in Palestine for all the Jews in the World, and what would happen to the people already there? She emigrated to South Africa where she was active against apartheid. I cannot recollect her name, cannot now refind that info on the web. Can you name her for me?
In WW2 I heard a group of Jews discussing a letter recieved through a neutral country, people were disbelieving of what it said, and fearful that if they publicised what it said, that their relatives in Europe would suffer.
When Israel was being born, One person was insistent that the term Anti-Semitic must only be used for people who also hate Arabs. The group he was then discussing with did not agree, they did not accept that would be essential for a successful secure Israel to be established.
The British Govt should have had funding available once they had made the Balfour Declaration, and Europe should have made funds avaiable to fully compensate all the dispossesed - but where can displaced Palestinians go? It would be far cheaper for the Americans to have sorted that out rather than corrupting the beautiful dream that Israel really was in its early days, with ongoing armaments and subsidies.
It is important to remember how well Jewish Culture flourished under the Moors in Spain. Israel should have sent an Ambassador to talk to Hamas as soon as they were elected."
By killing Hamas leaders in the way they are, Israel indicates there are spies, and they are almost certain to be Fatah supporters. Palestinians are being split, possibly many are bought. The US in Iraq think they have established a long term basis for peace by buying some faction leaders, time will tell, it is far cheaper to buy leaders than to pay to solve the problem. When people hang their traitors, the problem will be far worse.
And the obvious weapon for Arabs to use against European origined Israelis is very frightening. Will Gaza be the culmination of Civilization?
