What do you call Gaza and the West Bank? They are concentration camps, in the original meaning of the word. The Palestinians are concentrated into walled or fenced areas controlled by the Israeli army.

I.--THE CONDITION OF PALESTINE AFTER THE WAR.

"The Jewish element of the population numbers 76,000. Almost all have entered Palestine during the last 40 years. Prior to 1850 there were in the country only a handful of Jews."

A Population Boom

As Hussein foresaw, the regeneration of Palestine, and the growth of its population, came only after Jews returned in massive numbers. The Jewish population increased by 470,000 between World War I and World War II while the non-Jewish population rose by 588,000. In fact, the permanent Arab population increased 120 percent between 1922 and 1947.

This rapid growth was a result of several factors. One was immigration from neighboring states — constituting 37 percent of the total immigration to pre-state Israel — by Arabs who wanted to take advantage of the higher standard of living the Jews had made possible. The Arab population also grew because of the improved living conditions created by the Jews as they drained malarial swamps and brought improved sanitation and health care to the region. Thus, for example, the Muslim infant mortality rate fell from 201 per thousand in 1925 to 94 per thousand in 1945 and life expectancy rose from 37 years in 1926 to 49 in 1943.

The Arab population increased the most in cities with large Jewish populations that had created new economic opportunities. From 19221947, the non-Jewish population increased 290 percent in Haifa, 131 percent in Jerusalem and 158 percent in Jaffa. The growth in Arab towns was more modest: 42 percent in Nablus, 78 percent in Jenin and 37 percent in Bethlehem.
 
Ha ha ha. You are truly an ignorant Farting Dumbass. China, Russia, Pakistan, Iran, Venezuela, Syria, Libya, Cuba, France, and many other countries have violated "UN sanctions" far more than Israel has. Where do you think Iran and N. Korea got their got their missile and nuclear capabilities while being under "UN sanctions"?

Got your shit packed didn't you. You said "can you provide us with just ONE instance of "UN sanctions" Israel has violated.

And you got one, there are more, go look.

As for your next but unrelated point, Bush gave taxpayer funding to N Korea to buy nuclear reactors from a company Rumsfeld once sat on the board of directors of a couple years before he decided they were now part of an "axis of evil". Is that what you're referring to? They were following through on a plan that got put together under the Clinton administration. When are you people going to wake up and firgure out your "sides" are both on the same side and you're not? Jesus what blindass fucks.





Meaning that the US has also broke sanctions much more serious that a few bits of gold

Well sure, surprised?






Not really as the US does what it wants when it wants and does not care who it hurts in the process. But it shows that you need to go trawling the internet to find some new dirt to throw at the Jews to justify your RABID RACISM

And no I am not a Jew

Israel is a nation state, not a race. Since we pay for around 20% of their defense budget and fight their proxy wars, they should expect and even invite criticism.





BY WHAT LAWS.


Israel is a nation that has a state religion. Your government decides to pay that money not you, and does so knowing that they get much more back. What you are doing is not criticism as you are singling our Israel/Jews for special hatred known as anti Semitism. This means that you are no different and no better than the islamonazis, catholics and Germas socialist workers party. Just your everyday rabid semi literate racist
 
What's good for the goose.


I watched part of that video. One thing about it that isn't addressed about Palestinians, why all the violence? Nobody is putting them in concentration camps, all this violence can end NOW if Palestinians learn to co-exist. No rocket attacks, no suicide bombers, no stabbing, learn to get along with you Jewish non Muslim non Arab neighbor. Imagine that.


What do you call Gaza and the West Bank? They are concentration camps, in the original meaning of the word. The Palestinians are concentrated into walled or fenced areas controlled by the Israeli army. Why did the non-whites violently resist the Apartheid regime in South Africa? Why did they bomb shopping centers? Why do you expect the Palestinians to behave any differently than the Algerians, the non-whites in South Africa or the IRA?







They are Jewish owned lands that the arab muslims are trying to steal, and in the process find themselves squeezed tighter and tighter together. Their plight is of their own making and they should have obeyed the LoN treaties from 1923 then they would have been settled in the empty lands of Jordan now.

MORE OFF TOPIC DEFLECTION AS THIS BOARD IS ABOUT THE ISRAEL/PALESTINE CONFLICT AND NOTHING TO DO WITJ ALGERIA, SOUTH AFRICA OR THE CATHOLIC TERRORISTS IN NORTHERN IRELAND

This issue has bothered me for years, Why can't Arab Muslims accept Israel? Israel has been heavy handed militarily, particularly with Palestinians. I can understand their anger, but they too have to understand violence is counter productive.


First off, the Palestinian Arabs are Muslim and Christian. Why should the Muslims and Christians accept their dispossession on the part of Europeans that invaded from another continent? I don't get your point.








BECAUSE THE LAND WAS NEVER THEIRS IN THE FIRST PLACE. IT WAS JEWISH, ROMAN EMPIRE, ROMAN CATHOLIC, OTTOMAN AND NOW JEWISH. WHEN WAS IT ARAB MUSLIM LAND IN THE LAST 5000 YEARS ?

(b)IMMIGRATION AND NATURAL INCREASE

15. These changes in the population have been brought about by two forces: natural increase and immigration. The great increase in the Jewish population is due in the main to immigration. From 1920 to 1946, the total number of recorded Jewish immigrants into Palestine was about 376,000, or an average of over 8,000 per year. The flow has not been regular, however, being fairly high in 1924 to 1926, falling in the next few years (there was a net emigration in 1927) and rising to even higher levels between 1933 and 1936 as a result of the Nazi persecution in Europe. Between the census year of 1931 and the year 1936, the proportion of Jews to the total population rose from 18 per cent to nearly 30 per cent.

16. The Arab population has increased almost entirely as a result of an excess of births over deaths."

The Arabs in Palestine | Jewish Virtual Library

Jewish Land Purchases

Despite the growth in their population, the Arabs continued to assert they were being displaced. The truth is from the beginning of World War I, part of Palestine's land was owned by absentee landlords who lived in Cairo, Damascus and Beirut. About 80 percent of the Palestinian Arabs were debt-ridden peasants, semi-nomads and Bedouins.

Jews actually went out of their way to avoid purchasing land in areas where Arabs might be displaced. They sought land that was largely uncultivated, swampy, cheap and, most important, without tenants. In 1920, Labor Zionist leader David Ben-Gurion expressed his concern about the Arab fellahin, whom he viewed as "the most important asset of the native population." Ben-Gurion said "under no circumstances must we touch land belonging to fellahs or worked by them." He advocated helping liberate them from their oppressors. "Only if a fellah leaves his place of settlement," Ben-Gurion added, "should we offer to buy his land, at an appropriate price."

It was only after the Jews had bought all of this available land that they began to purchase cultivated land. Many Arabs were willing to sell because of the migration to coastal towns and because they needed money to invest in the citrus industry.

When John Hope Simpson arrived in Palestine in May 1930, he observed: "They [Jews] paid high prices for the land, and in addition they paid to certain of the occupants of those lands a considerable amount of money which they were not legally bound to pay."

In 1931, Lewis French conducted a survey of landlessness and eventually offered new plots to any Arabs who had been "dispossessed." British officials received more than 3,000 applications, of which 80 percent were ruled invalid by the Government's legal adviser because the applicants were not landless Arabs. This left only about 600 landless Arabs, 100 of whom accepted the Government land offer.

In April 1936, a new outbreak of Arab attacks on Jews was instigated by a Syrian guerrilla named Fawzi al-Qawukji, the commander of the Arab Liberation Army. By November, when the British finally sent a new commission headed by Lord Peel to investigate, 89 Jews had been killed and more than 300 wounded.

The Peel Commission's report found that Arab complaints about Jewish land acquisition were baseless. It pointed out that "much of the land now carrying orange groves was sand dunes or swamp and uncultivated when it was purchased....there was at the time of the earlier sales little evidence that the owners possessed either the resources or training needed to develop the land." Moreover, the Commission found the shortage was "due less to the amount of land acquired by Jews than to the increase in the Arab population." The report concluded that the presence of Jews in Palestine, along with the work of the British Administration, had resulted in higher wages, an improved standard of living and ample employment opportunities.

In his memoirs, Transjordan's King Abdullah wrote:

It is made quite clear to all, both by the map drawn up by the Simpson Commission and by another compiled by the Peel Commission, that the Arabs are as prodigal in selling their land as they are in useless wailing and weeping (author's emphasis).
 
Posting from a propaganda sites demonstrates you haven't any facts to support your claims. But, keep embarrassing yourself. It's entertaining.
