    Ok, clearly this whole Israel in the Middle East thing is not working out so well....so I was thinking what if we moved their whole country to a better place?

    Somewhere that they can fit in with the locals, and improve everyone's standard of living...and it dawned on me.

    Let's move Israel to Cuba.......we can take out Castro and his cronies and move all the Israelis to that island and let them set up shop there.

    They are surrounded by water and out of range of all those nutty arabs and their crazy Rockets.

    The Cuban people would probably welcome a democratic government, and think of all the hot Jewish women with a nice tropical tan....YAOOOWWWZZZAAAA

    Israel is just not working out as a country........they need to move closer to the USA's nipples, since their whole economy is propped up on our countries milk.

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry...or both...

    Ah-ha! Now I understand ;)

    But I have one question for you: Is Cuba a 'holy land'? If not, that might complicate things a bit...

    Well they can make it a holy land when they get there, I am pretty certain that they can update their religion to include Cuba.

    I mean, who would not want to live in Cuba over the deserts of the Middle East.

    And we could let them resurrect the casino industry in Cuba so that they would be less of a burden on the American taxpayer......

    Actually, Cuba's closer to America's wang.

    But Moses can't speak Spanish...

    Most Israelis don't live in a desert, it's actually not a bad thing to live that close to the Mediterranean...

    Are you planning a trip to Havana anytime soon? ;)

    Actually a even better idea is Canada...we need the population anyway...plus we live in peace...


    Well we used to until we jumped onto the U.S bandwagon.

    Well in all seriousness, when they were originally considering a Jewish homeland, Argentina was given strong consideration. Not quite Castro, but Peron :)

    Well the Jews would be safer in Canada. I think they deserve that after the Holocaust. Germany and say the Nuremburg area would be nice and a fitting location. BTW in early Zionism before the Euro Jews moved to Israel and then began importing Jews from the rest of the world to take Palestinian land weren't they trying to decide between Israel and Tanzania and somewhere in South America?

    How about free US passports for Israelis if they move to the US and engage in good behavior for say 10 years. It might ease the problem and be cheaper for beleagured US taxpayers then the massive subsudies we dish out. Many ewish Americans have a good life in this country and we are a large enough country to absorb them quite easily.

    I understand that US passports are quite valued in Israel.

    Not a fair trade. Israel is slightly smaller than the georgraphical area of the city of Houston according to the Moon Handbook of Texas.

    I wouldn't mind. Bring them on down to Texas if they can deal with American ethnic and religious tolerance we are accustomed to.

    If relocation is the thing, I vote for Venezuela. The U.S. gets a fresh supply of oil and the Israelis get lots of ocean front property. Also, they can use their tanks on the drug cartels and Hugo Chavez. ;)

    THIS HAS BEEN MY THEORY FOR A LONG TIME!!!!!!

    Except in my theory, we need to find a place where the locals don't mind being taken over by the Israelies. Who?

    Who wouldn't mind so much being taken over???? :confused:

    How about (sorry JV), THE FRENCH!!!!!

    Yes. The French. They're used to being taken over. Give France to the Israelies. That'll solve the problem. :)

    Let them settle Wyoming. I honestly think it'd serve their interests better.
