| #8 What else does Italy sell to Syria? Surely they're not selling out the Joos for 30 pieces of silver, are they? |

| #7 My understanding is that Solomon's kingdom was more than double the size of David's, extending well into Syria. The borders of Israel were clearly defined and described in Joshua, but Israel never fully controlled all the areas described. Be that as it may, the Golan Heights are an essential part of Israel's defense. How do you say "piss off" in Italian? |

| #6 There's no archeological evidence of that, Oldcat. But under the Hasmoneans (the House of the Maccabees), Israel conquered and converted the Idumeans, in what I think is now Jordan. Will that do? ;-) |

| #3 Well, France shall reclaim the Val d'Aoste, a 3262 square kilometers region of Italy, which was french for centuries. I affirm the right of France to regain the Val d'Aoste occupied by Italy. And I hope that D'Alema will be supportive of this position. |
