Who Are The Palestinians?

[aris2chat]

Italians, who happen to be Catholics, have DNA similarities among themselves. Too funny to debate a cretin.

Why specify them as catholics?

 

[montelatici]

Because they are mostly Catholic. Although there are Italians of all religions, Jewish religion included. But, if you meet an Italian Jew as I have, there is no way to tell he/she isn't an Italian Catholic unless they care to tell you. That's why only small percentage (5%) of Italian Jews were deported and murdered by the Germans.

Who are the Palestinians?

Noor Daoud

She had the benefit of being born in Texas and making the Olympic swim team. Driving since she was 11.
Far from your typical palestinian and not one to get involved in the hate and violence against Israel. She loves life and racing too much.
Do you think she could practice her love under Hamas?
.............though most drivers in the middle east seem to disregard speed, lanes and traffic laws. Driving can really be a free for all. Once saw a man loose his arm sticking it out a car window.
Driving like she does is gutsy in any country. At lease she does it on a track with safety gear.

So, you are saying that it is nurture not nature that molds Palestinians?

That taken out of the negative influence of occupation they can be quite normal or even exceptional people.

The negative influence is Hamas operative encouraging young Palestinians to join the Jihad and that becoming a martyr is the path they should choose in life.

I miss Arafat. What a great leader he was. Took his Palestinians from the toilet to the sewer, got them massacred over & over again by their own Arab brothers, embezzled their money & died of AIDS leaving the Palestinians living in ignorance & poverty with no hope for a Palestinian State. Let us join together in wishing Hamas the greatest of success in filling Arafat's shoes.

have you read it, and seen how racists and anti-Semitic it is. And that it is but a proposal "A collection of various propsals and amendments to the Basic Law of Palestine "
From your past links we get these

50. Table 1 shows the foreign assets and liabilities as estimated
for 1945. The net balance of foreign assets as shown in this table
is divided between the communities in table la. The estimates
have been compiled from analyses of Government accounts, bank
records and commercial balance sheets.
51. Table 2, which has been compiled from the records of land
taxation, shows the area of land held by Arabs (and other non-
Jews) and by Jews. In table 2A the rural areas have been valued
at pre-war prices based on the categorization of land for fiscal
purposes carried out in 1935. These values, although based on
values actually ruling pre-war, are completely arbitrary and have
been designed to reflect the share of the two groups of the population
rather than the aggregate value of the land. The estimate
abstracts from the scarcity values which have in recent years
operated to drive up land values to figures which in earlier years
would have been considered fantastic.


Now the missing tables that tell the true story

You better get back to your Christmas shopping on Ebay Phoney...

Taxation has NOTHING to do with land ownership!

It does in certain parts of the world, mostly those run by Britain. You own property and you are liable to a tax on that property payable every year. The tax is now split into 7 bands and you pay according to the value of the property. Because Palestine was under British rule the same laws applies and so land and property was taxed on value, call it a tithe, so the more land you owned the higher the tax you paid. This destroys the false claims by monti that the arab muslims owned the majority of Palestine as the tax records show the Jews paid the most in land taxes.

Oh Phoney, why do you do it to yourself all the time...

"so land and property was taxed on value"

Does not equate to...

"so the more land you owned the higher the tax you paid"

Can you see the difference?

Property is taxed on LAND VALUE not LAND OWNED!

So if I owned 100 acres and ali owned 10 acres I would pay the same tax as he would, or would I pay ten times more tax than him. Of course 100 acres is valued higher than 10 acres.

Do you understand this now, if the Jews owned 4.8% of the land and the arab muslims owned 0.8% of the land then the Jews would pay more tax. Which is what table 2 shows and is explained in the sectioned I posted that monti left out because it destroys his stance. Just as removing table 1 destroys his claims because it gives the true land ownership.

You are such an idiot it states plainly how much land each group owned. A dunum is about 1,000 square meters

26,670,455 Dunums Arabs
1,514,247 Dunums Jews

That is the true land ownership you cretin.

Arabs owned more than 85% of the land in 1946, and Jews owned less than 7% of the land in 1946. Get it through your thick skull.

The the other table has nothing to do with land ownership.

Of course this discussion is meaningless. Sovereignty belongs to the citizens without regard to private property ownership. Somebody who rents a house in New Jersey has the same rights as a farm owner in Kentucky.

Jews owned land in Palestine but it was still Palestinian land. Jews own land in the US but it is still US land. It does not belong to any other country.

It is the people who have sovereignty. The citizens in a defined territory are the ones with the right to sovereignty. Governments or states only have sovereignty by extension of the will of the people.

You are the dumbass as it clearly states arabs and other non-jews. Which means the absentee Turkish landlords who owned the land are counted. So table 1 is correct in its report 4.8% owned by Jews 0.8% owned by arabs.

Told you once I got the link I WOULD DESTROY YOUR CHERRY PICKING OF FACTS AND PRODUCE THE TRUTH

Table 1, says nothing about land ownership. Other non-Jews are the Samaritans, Greeks and Latins that are included in the population surveys, including Christian Church owned lands.

Nice try, moron.

From your link that shows who is the real moron

NOT OWNED just held as in leased or rented from Ottoman landlords. And the results are based on the taxes raised on the land.

You are wrong YET AGAIN...............Goodness reading your posts..... are #@&%^$#*&!($) = Shit

Whats wrong don't like seeing your world fall down around your ears when your own links are used against you. The preamble tells the full story how the Ottomans are the biggest land owners until the mandate ceases to exist and the title is then transferred

So the LoN treaty that gave the land to the Jews means the arab muslims have no rights there, nice of you to explain that.

 

[RoccoR]

et al,

Land ownership had nothing to do with national sovereignty; it is merely one of many considerations.

The League of Nations did not give the land to the Jewish Agency. Israel was created under the self-determination; pursuant to the "Steps Preparatory to Independence" outlined by the UN.

v/r

[MJB12741]

The reestablishment of Israel was done both legally & morally by a vote of the member nations of the UN at that time whereas all Muslim lands are stolen lands conquered by force over the native populations.

"Palestine" is just a name of the mandate region. When the mandate ended the government of Eretz Israel choose to name their state Israel. There was no state of palestine so why should they have kept the name. They wanted their jewish state to reflect their history and ties to the land.
They had the right to call it what they wanted.
It was a distinction from the state offered and refused by the UN partition plan. At the time most palestinian arabs/muslims identified themselves as southern syrians, jordanian or just as arab. They were a mix of tribes and people and at the time the mandate ended close to half were immigrants that came seeking well paying work what had no real ties to the land or country.
If Israel had kept the name of palestine, what should the rest of the other land have called itself? Palestine II?
With the creation of Israel, the "land" was no longer palestine but now Israel.
Sovereignty and rights come from statehood which the palestinians never had or left because they did not want to accept either Israel or partition.
Israel could have called itself Mecca or Rome or Jewland or XYZland but it choose Israel. Palestinian refugees, gaza, WB , wherever don't have the right to tell Israel what it should be called. They don't want to be Israeli? They leave. Most stayed and are content as Israelis. They don't want to leave or change names.
Israel was identified by the mandate as a jewish homeland and Israel identifies as a jewish state. Israel was a logical choice for a name and the land is Israeli land and the people are Israeli.
Time you accept that.

[Mindful]

As long as Phoney keeps denying what it states in plain language I will continue presenting it to him.

And as long as you refuse to post the details in full I will keep pointing out your LIES and PROPAGANDA with the truth from your own links. Now according to the explanation in your link what does table one show, and then what does table 2 show.

I have no idea what other table you are talking about, there are tables depicting foreign investment, financial assets held, population and other many things.

There is only one table that depicts land ownership. It is the one below:

View attachment 34378

So, this survey shows that, in 1943, the majority of the land was in Arab hands.

So what?

A survey of that same land today will tell a different story - much of it is no longer in Arab hands.

And not likely to BE in Arab hands, at any point, in the foreseeable future.

Next slide, please.

But it doesn't that is just monti manipulating the report, in actual fact it shows that 85% was owned by Ottomans 0.8% by arab muslims and 4.8% by Jews. From 1948 that was moot anyway as the land ownership went to the Jews in the case of Israel and any arab muslim lost the land ownership they had. The Palestinians failing to make their move also lost all land ownership they had in gaza and the west bank, and now have to fight to get anything back.

This is just utter Garbage,Jewish Garbage at its best though

What's the difference between Jewish garbage and anyone else's garbage?

Just who the modern Palestinians are is a matter of conjecture. Palestinian Arabs claim various lines of descentsome of which seem more legend than fact. The Nusseibeh family claim to have descened from the Arab invaders under Omar (about 640). The Dajani claim descent from an Arabian knight, The Husseini family seem to be associated wuth with Ottoman invaders (1510s). The Nashashibi family are apparently descended from Bowmen of Salah Eddin. Izzedin Al Qassam, the Palestinian national hero, was born in Syria.

Palestinians never stop trying to find some root of their being. First they were the descendents of the Assyrians. Then the Akkadians. Then the Philistines. Then the Canaanites & who knows whats next? Sure glad they never had the good sense to claim they are the descendents of the Lost Tribes of Israel to doom Israel.
