9:23pmLibrarian:

9:24pmme:

9:24pmme:

9:24pmLibrarian:

i’ve read everything
my brain is a gigantic compendium of all things
jk
9:25pmme:
Palestine and the Israeli-Arab Conflict
by
Smith something
if very halal and balanced
waging peace is alright too
I am kinda skipitcal of when memiors are writing about teh oslow accords and such
b/c they are so biased and so limited in perseptive
but I know rabinovich’s kid
soo.. I read it anyway
9:29pmme:
but in the end I think Locke’s theory on government is on solid ground an helps explain the underlying issues
haha, sorry, now if I was so motivated to write my paper
meh
Alhumdullah
9:36pmLibrarian:
sorry
i had a patron come
(i’m working at the circulationd esk at my school library)
hmm, smith eh? i’ll have to take a look at it
what’s the relationship
between locke’s theory and thep palestinian conflict?
9:37pmme:
That government is initially created to protect property
9:39pmLibrarian:
i’m not fololowing you
explain yourself
9:41pmme:
haha, because I am being obvious
what do you want me to explain?
Lockes thoery?
9:41pmLibrarian:
whats the relationship between the concept of creating government for attaining property and the palestinian-israeli conflict?
9:45pmme:
In the two treaties of government Locke says man was a peaceful being, independent, nomadic etc. And basically he started to accumulate food and plant and sow
9:45pmLibrarian:
k
9:45pmme:
but other then “first come first serve” which even human children seen to understand
seem*
what warrants protection of the fruit of labor and your land other then a general rule of law?
and therefore “civilzation” and government was made to ensure these rights–or at least to the illusion of them
and even I am part Pali and I never really grasped the importance of land
until then I suppose
9:49pmme:
you see in Jewish culture
or European Jewish culture
Land isn’t a big issue
unless you come from a zionistic stance
becuase the culture has developed without being to own land for centuries
so scholarship and city work is encourage instead
hence cities in Israel that contain over 8- percent of the population
80*
or over I believe
9:53pmme:
anyways from the Israeli part of my familia we weren’t big on land
even though my mother’s parents were super zionists
blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ok I totally need to write this paper
salaam
9:58pmLibrarian:
sorry
my cmputer got messed up
10:00pmLibrarian:
