In 1948 Mandate Palestine 650,000 Jews inflicted their nation upon 1.2 million non-Jews, expelling over 700,000 PALESTINIANS from their homes, businesses, and bank accounts.
Things have NOT improved for PALESTINIANS since that time:
"Over the 60 years since Israel’s founding on May 14, 1948, this profound injustice has continued. Palestinian refugees are the largest remaining refugee population in the world.
"1.3 million Palestinians live in Israel as 'Israeli citizens,' but despite their status as citizens, they are subject to systematic discrimination. Many are prohibited from living in the villages and homes from which they were violently expelled, and their property has been confiscated for Jewish-only uses.
"In Orwellian terminology, Israeli law designates these internal refugees as 'present absentees.'12
"In 1967 Israel launched its third war and seized still more Palestinian (and other Arab) land. Israel also attacked a U.S. Navy ship, the USS Liberty, killing and injuring over 200 Americans, an event that remains largely covered-up today, despite efforts by an extraordinary array of high-level military officers and civilian officials to expose it."
The Catastrophe - Al Nakba
Hey sunshine, it' wasn't the Jews who enforced the 1948 mandate it was the Brits who had control of the land at the time. They offered to split the land between the Jews and the so called Palestinians/AKA muslims. The Jews said Yes and the so called Palestinians said no they wanted all or nothing. Brits said fine and gave them nothing. Sorry for ya.
1967 bigger Muslim countries were poised to attack Israel and wound up getting their asses kicked by a country the size of New Jersey. ROLMAO! They have been butt hurt ever since. Yes the Israeli's confiscated some of their land but let me ask you. If the Muslim countries had won in 67 would Isreal still exsist? **** no, they would have taken the land away. So now you tell me why the winners of that war should do any less than what was going to be done to them. Muslims have a sense of entitlement that they should always get their way no matter waht and are poor losers. The Refugees who are squawking now are nothing more than squatters because all the countries that they once belonged to still exsist. They should have just gone back to the new borders of those countries.
As for Gaza and the newly given Palestinian territories, Isreal should never have given them those lands. A mistake Israel has been paying for ever since. Maybe some day they will realize their mistake and do what they should have done in the first place, run the malcontents out to their land and into the arms of their muslim brothers. BTW their muslim brothers don't want them either. Just sayin.
Hey, Hasbara...stick to writing bad fiction.
With the backing of the UN, 650,000 Jews inflicted their nation upon 1.2 million Arab Palestinians in 1948 after the Brits decapitated the Arab leadership in 1936-39. In 1967 Israel attacked Egypt without provocation three days before killing 34 US servicemen in international waters. In case you're completely ignorant of international law, the Fourth Geneva Convention makes it completely illegal for Jews to fill the territories they occupy with their civilians...you know... like "Jews" from Russia or bumfuck Bulgaria looking for some West Bank welfare paid for by US taxpayers. Currently the Jewish state is circling the same drain White South Africa disappeared into twenty years ago. Can you swim?
I guess you need a history lesson.
Mandatory Palestine (English: Palestine;[1] Arabic: فلسطين* Filasţīn; Hebrew: פָּלֶשְׂתִּינָה (א"י
PalestÃna (EY), where "EY" indicates "Eretz Yisrael") was a geopolitical entity under British administration, carved out of Ottoman Southern Syria after World War I. British civil administration in Palestine operated from 1920 until 1948.
Oh look there were Jews in Israel before 1948. Oh look the Arabs refused to co-operate.
1. Samuel tried to establish self-governing institutions in Palestine, as required by the mandate, but was frustrated by the refusal of the Arab leadership to co-operate with any institution which included Jewish participation.[8] When Grand Mufti of Jerusalem Kamil al-Husayni died in March 1921, High Commissioner Samuel appointed his half-brother Mohammad Amin al-Husayni to the position. Amin al-Husayni, a member of the al-Husayni clan of Jerusalem, was an Arab nationalist and Muslim leader. As Grand Mufti, as well as the other influential positions that he held during this period, al-Husayni played a key role in violent opposition to Zionism.
Oh look Arabs don't co-operate again.
2. The 1922 Palestine Order in Council established a Legislative Council, which was to consist of 23 members; 12 elected, 10 appointed and the High Commissioner.[13] Of the 12 elected members, eight were to be Muslim Arabs, two Christian Arabs and two Jews.[14] Arabs protested against the distribution of the seats, arguing that as they constituted 88% of the population, having only 43% of the seats was unfair.[14] Elections were held in February and March 1923, but due to an Arab boycott, the results were annulled and a 12-member Advisory Council was established.[13]
Oh look Muslims make terrorist cells, what a surprise from the religion of peace.
1930s: Arab resistance and armed insurgency
3. In 1930, Sheikh Izz ad-Din al-Qassam arrived in Palestine and organised and established the Black Hand, an anti-Zionist and anti-British militant organisation. He recruited and arranged military training for peasants and by 1935 he had enlisted between 200 and 800 men. The cells were equipped with bombs and firearms, which they used to kill Zionist settlers in the area, as well as engaging in a campaign of vandalism of the settlers-planted trees and British constructed rail-lines.[16] In November 1935, two of his men engaged in a firefight with a Palestine police patrol hunting fruit thieves and a policeman was killed. Following the incident, British police launched a manhunt and surrounded al-Qassam in a cave near Ya'bad. In the ensuing battle, al-Qassam was killed.[16]
Oh look the Arabs get their asses kicked
Arab revolt:
4. By the time the revolt concluded in March 1939, more than 5,000 Arabs, 400 Jews, and 200 Britons had been killed and at least 15,000 Arabs were wounded.[20] The Revolt resulted in the deaths of 5,000 Palestinian Arabs and the wounding of 10,000. In total, 10% of the adult Arab male population was killed, wounded, imprisoned, or exiled.(Khalidi 2001, p. 26) From 1936 to 1945, whilst establishing collaborative security arrangements with the Jewish Agency, the British confiscated 13,200 firearms from Arabs and 521 weapons from Jews.(Khalidi 1987, p. 845)\
Oh look Arabs offered their own state and rejected it.
Partition proposals
5. In 1937, the Peel Commission proposed a partition between a small Jewish state, whose Arab population would have to be transferred, and an Arab state to be attached to Jordan. The proposal was rejected by the Arabs. The two main Jewish leaders, Chaim Weizmann and David Ben-Gurion, had convinced the Zionist Congress to approve equivocally the Peel recommendations as a basis for more negotiation.[21][22][23][24][25]
Oh look another Arab rejection of thier own state in 1947, are we seeing a pattern here?
6. On 29 November, the UN General Assembly, voting 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions, adopted a resolution recommending the adoption and implementation of the Plan of Partition with Economic Union as Resolution 181 (II).,[37] while making some adjustments to the boundaries between the two states proposed by it. The division was to take effect on the date of British withdrawal. The partition plan required that the proposed states grant full civil rights to all people within their borders, regardless of race, religion or gender. It is important to note that the UN General Assembly is only granted the power to make recommendations, therefore, UNGAR 181 was not legally binding.[38] Both the U.S. and the Soviet Union supported the resolution. Haiti, Liberia, and the Philippines changed their votes at the last moment after concerted pressure from the U.S. and from Zionist organisations.[39][40][41] The five members of the Arab League, who were voting members at the time, voted against the Plan.
The Jewish Agency, which was the Jewish state-in-formation, accepted the plan, and nearly all the Jews in Palestine rejoiced at the news. Israeli history books mention 29 November as the most important date in the creation of Israel as it refers to UNGA 181 of 1947 Partition of the Mandate of Palestine into two states and whereof Israel's Proclamation of Independence refers to UNGA 181 as its source of sovereignty in Ph's 9 & 15.[citation needed]
The partition plan was rejected out of hand by Palestinian Arab leadership and by most of the Arab population.[citation needed] Meeting in Cairo on November and December 1947, the Arab League then adopted a series of resolutions aimed at a military solution to the conflict.
Britain announced that it would accept the partition plan, but refused to enforce it, arguing it was not accepted by the Arabs. Britain also refused to share the administration of Palestine with the UN Palestine Commission during the transitional period. In September 1947, the British government announced that the Mandate for Palestine would end at midnight on 14 May 1948.[42][43][44]
Some Jewish organisations also opposed the proposal. Irgun leader Menachem Begin announced: "The partition of the Homeland is illegal. It will never be recognized. The signature by institutions and individuals of the partition agreement is invalid. It will not bind the Jewish people. Jerusalem was and will forever be our capital. Eretz Israel will be restored to the people of Israel. All of it. And for ever."[45] These views were publicly rejected by the majority of the nascent Jewish state.[citation needed]
1948 Arab Israeli war: Note that Egypt got control of Gaza and NO PALESTINIAN STATE WAS CREATED. lol
7. The 1948 Arab–Israeli War or the First Arab–Israeli War was fought between the State of Israel and a military coalition of Arab states and Palestinian Arab forces. This war was the second stage of the 1948 Palestine war, known in Arabic as al-Nakba (Arabic: النكبة*, "The Catastrophe") and in Hebrew as the Milkhemet Ha'atzma'ut (Hebrew: מלחמת העצמאות*, "War of Independence") or Milkhemet Hashikhrur (Hebrew: מלחמת השחרור* "War of Liberation").
The war was preceded by a period of civil war in the territory of the Mandatory Palestine between Jewish Yishuv forces and Palestinian Arab forces in response to the UN Partition Plan. An alliance of Arab states intervened on the Palestinian side, turning the civil war into a war between sovereign states. The fighting took place mostly on the former territory of the British Mandate and for a short time also in the Sinai Peninsula and southern Lebanon.[16]
As a result of the war, the State of Israel kept nearly all the area that had been recommended by the UN General Assembly Resolution 181 and took control of almost 60% of the area allocated to the proposed Arab state,[17] including the Jaffa, Lydda and Ramle area, Galilee, some parts of the Negev, a wide strip along the Tel-Aviv-Jerusalem road, West Jerusalem, and some territories in the West Bank. Transjordan took control of the remainder of the West Bank and East-Jerusalem, and the Egyptian military took control of the Gaza Strip. No Arab Palestinian state was created. Armistice agreements were signed between all belligerents except Iraqis and Palestinians.

everyone was in the end responsible for making the escalation unavoidable.[83]
