Middle East Conflict (merged)

[The blue phantom]

It ends with Palestine being wiped off the map and Israel annexing everything.

If something was going to happen to save Palestine and create a peaceful solution it would have happened already. The world's powers have shown what they want to happen with decades of inaction.

Sadly this is true, Israel are also simply fuckin untouchable and while they have the ear of the Americans they'll Bomb and Murder who they like.

And you're right that the colonial powers were very cynical in the post WW1 era. The book 'A Line In The Sand' is currently on sale on Kindle for 99p and tells how there were at least 3 different schemes being pursued for what to do about carving up the Middle East, all of which were deeply cynical.

There's even a view that the British Government were supportive of the Balfour Declaration because they saw it as a way to potentially rid themselves of these recently arrived Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. If you think the language of people like Farage and papers like the Mail is bad now, you should have seen it in the early 20th Century when talking about those Jewish migrants.

Incidentally, the site where the CFA now is, which was Clayton Aniline, played a big role in the Balfour Declaration as the owner of CA introduced Arthur Balfour to the Zionist Movement's leader Chaim Weizmann.

Looks a good read - snagged a hard copy for £3.50 cheers for the steer.

Just seen a video of people driving around Jewish areas in London shouting anti Semitic insults....people have every right to be mad at Israel, but I think it’s clear a sizeable number just don’t like Jewish people.

disgusting behaviour from racists

Fucking morons to boot, only damaging the cause they claim to support by making it an anti-Jewish thing, which is exactly what Israel wants. Then again, no one ever suggested racists were the sharpest knives in the draw.

Nothing to add.

Israel has a right to defend itself. What should it do - remove the Iron dome and let 1800 rockets to drop on its citizens and make this graph look lopsided the other way ?

Israel v Palestinians is not a war. Just like me fighting an old frail man wouldn't be a fight. It's a liberty. Jewish Settlers evicting people from their homes because a made up book of shite said it was theirs. The only people hapoy are those evangelical scum praying for Armeggedon. Thank fuck prayers are useless. I support Israel's right to exist, and also the Palestinians right to territory. Religion, a fucking cancer of humanity.

Is right.

I urge you to look at the timeline map of Palestine: this is not about defending itself, it is about the removal of the state of Palestine.

It's a man standing on another mans neck, then complaining that they are scratching at their ankles.
