    Your point would have some validity if Jews were not indigenous to the land of Israel.

    A more acurate and historically correct analogy would be if you showed up at the front door of an aboriginal family and said "Hi folks Im home" .......Dont you agree?

    1 Dead, 17 Injured in Student Clashes at Beirut University


    BEIRUT, Lebanon — Students for and against the government hurled rocks and furniture at each other Thursday as Lebanon's power struggle turned violent on a university campus and spilled onto nearby streets.

    Hezbollah's Al-Manar television said one of the militant group's supporters was killed, but security officials could not immediately confirm the death. Security officials said at least 17 people were injured. Other TV stations reported that about 25 people were hurt.

    Soldiers fired shots in the air to disperse the rioters at the Beirut Arab University in the Tarik el-Jadideh neighborhood, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

    The trouble in the Sunni Muslim neighborhood spilled over to nearby streets, where people from outside the university joined in the fight. Young men carrying sticks and wearing hard hats arrived in the area and started throwing stones at each other. Some in the crowd smashed car windows before setting several on fire.

    More troops arrived in armored vehicles as soldiers fired volleys in the air, and residents fled for cover. The army closed the road on the southern edge of the Lebanese capital.
