Can you not tell by its picture?I see you are educating someone who I have on Ignore or has me on Ignore.This is what you said:A smart aleck serpent.Why do you think that they WOULD NOT have taken arms to defend themselves ?
And why do you put it as in "why do you think that I would not expect them to take up arms to defend themselves?"
That is such a deceitful question.
Why should it matter what you think about the Jewish people, or any other people taking up arms to defend themselves?
My answers are to encourage you to think beyond what you have read or been told.
Something you very clearly have no wish to do. Think beyond.
Why are you the only one who does not seem to be able to realize that you are making a huge issue about the Jews having to take up arms against the aggressive Arabs?
"However it wasn't like they didn't have arms."
Is what you posted above.
Actually, the Jews should have taken up knitting and made some beautiful scarves for them. Then, there might have been peace.
When a group of people swear to kill you and come at you with weapons, again and again......you take up arms to defend yourself.
Okay, the point here was that you're just making shit up about what you think I think.
I didn't say, and never have said, that Israel wouldn't take arms up to defend itself.
So who the fuck are you arguing with?
With very poor command of English.
It's not your fault.
Hey, we can spend all day doing this.
Or you could actually discuss with me what I actually said, rather than what I didn't say.
What I didn't say was that Israel wouldn't or shouldn't take up arms to defend itself.
Is that clear? Or are we just going to have to keep attacking me for positions I don't hold?
"So, are you saying this just happened? That Israel didn't expect a war? How did they win the war if they didn't have an army in the first place?"
So, it was tried to explain to you that from 1920 to 1948, because of the endless attacks on the Jewish community, the Jews began to build up their weapons, and organize themselves as an army. British Captain Wingate was very instrumental in that, by the way. One of the only British to help the Jews (Just an historical fact and oddity, considering how the British really behaved).
Teddy told you that even though Israel was outnumbered and outgunned, that the Jews persevered out of sheer balls.
And I explained it as well, that they had no other choice but to survive.
Outgunned, outnumbered, without a real army to speak of, unlike Jordan and the other Arab countries which were also being aided by the British........but with some tanks and weapons they had acquired.....
Israel won.
As the saying goes:
"By the skin of its teeth"
And that is all there is to it.
Who's the jackass?

Doesn't it look like that serpent from the Garden of Eden?
