Jews are not native to the Levant, yet Jerusalem is a Hebrew name and Jewish settlements there predate the invention of Islam by over a thousand years.Jews are not native to the Levant, so have no right to determine the fate of the region.
The Hebrew tribes likely are Egyptian and native to the Sinai Desert.
They invaded the Levant around 1000 BC, and committed terrible atrocities, like the massacre at Jericho.
But only rules about 150 years before being defeated and kicked out by the Babylonians, Assyrians, and Romans, who consecutively had enough and made them leave.
They did not return after the Romans kicked them out until after 1920, and the Balfour Declaration.
Do you ever not whine? My goodness. It’s not stolen it’s conquered. Like your ancestors were but mine had the balls to take back their land. Yours? You whine online like a bitch.Why was a Jewish state plopped/mandated/forced in the middle of the Arab world on stolen Palestinian land?
I never understood the "why". I'm glad we do since the Arabs and Muslims seem to by hyper violent and lean on terrorist tactics more often than not.Do you think the average American knows why the US backs Israel so strongly or what the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is??
I can't believe I'm writing this about a Lakhota post, but...Why was a Jewish state plopped/mandated/forced in the middle of the Arab world on stolen Palestinian land? Israel is a squatter nation on stolen lands.
Your getting confused.
The British were the people who had the Mandate for Palestine.
They gave the Zionists spies in Germany the Balfour Declaration to encourage Zionist immigration, in exchange for Chaim Weizman stealing the German formula for synthetic acetone for cordite explosives.
There was also the Zimmerman Letter they stole in order to get the US into the war.
ore rubbish 'history'; they were banned from Jerusalem, not the Levant, by the Romans and the Temple scam was dismantled. Constantine's mother allowed them back in and allowed them to try and rebuild their Temple, which they failed to do. The population was certainly reduced, but they were never banned from the Levant. The Jewish population was reduced to about 50 villages from a 160 or so. The region was never 100% Jewish to begin with. They still made up some 15% to 25% of Gallilee's population, for instance. Money and life was easier to come by elsewhere.Jews are not native to the Levant, so have no right to determine the fate of the region.

I don't have a dog in this fight. Carry on...
Where else could/should they have sent them?Me neither, but in real life they were never going to be allowed to return to Poland, and after two years of holding them in camps after the war was over, settling them in Palestine was a good idea, already a large population of Jews there, and nobody needed to give a crap what a bunch of Arab Nazi allies liked or didn't like, nor did we care about the Brits' antisemitism and allowing a bunch of Arab squatters to illegally immigrate there. We couldn't feed them in European camps forever.

So the Brits liked the camps and refugee ships with no ports?Yes, I'm familiar with the British efforts to shut down immigration to Palestine. Our policy after the war was still FDR's drive to dismantle European empires around the globe and set up free independent states, and American policy re British fecklessness over displaced Jews was perfectly in line with that agenda. I have no problem with it; as I said most Arabs backed the losing side, so tough shit. We merely added to what the Ottomans themselves encouraged, in any case.

They would take a hut and divide it into ten tiny rooms for ten couples. The desire for life overcame everything - in spite of everything I am alive, and even living with intensity.
We took children and turned them into human beings…. The great reckoning with the Holocaust? Who bothered about that... you knew the reality, you knew you had no family, that you were alone, that you had to do something. You were busy doing things. I remember that I used to tell the young people: Forgetfulness is a great thing. A person can forget, because if they couldn't forget they couldn't build a new life. After such a destruction to build a new life, to get married, to bring children into the world? In forgetfulness lay the ability to create a new life...
It goes back even further. Remember Abraham had two sons. The first was through the illicit relationship with Hagar who bore Ishmael and his second with his wife Sarah who is Isaac.We support Israel because of the inherent right to self-determination.
The Arb/Jewish conflict is based upon a clash of two different cultures.
The Bible was written by Jews a couple hundred years later.
None of it is accurate.
A real God would never be racist or material, with a "Chosen People" bribed with a "Promised Land".
They know what their media stronghold outlets tell them. The rest of us?....have seen this coming for years..and know it won't end well...for the Palestinians.
Well I've figured out why everyone in Gaza is so angry all the time.
At 4:30AM there's some asshole on a loudspeaker yodeling about allah.
I'd be pissed off all the time too if I couldn't get a good night's sleep.
The average American does not understand that the people pulling the strings on both so-called ''sides'' are one in the same and that they, in reality, do not like the people they claim to speak for very much.Do you think the average American knows why the US backs Israel so strongly or what the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is??
