Re: Democracy in Palestine?

Speaking of history, Hebron has seen it's share:

The city's history has been inseparably linked with the Cave of Machpelah, which the Patriarch Abraham purchased from Ephron the Hittite for 400 silver shekels (Genesis 23), as a family tomb.

Seems that there has been a lot of taking and grabbing after that (democratic) exchange took place.
