USA should have given a part of USA land to the jews, (bad conscience de leur part,) instead take palestinien land, call it Israel, and put the Jews , till today Palestiai suffres from Israels injustice, Israel criminels
everybody seems to talk about the Balfour decln as promising or presaging a jewish state. They haven't read it. It is one sentence wth two clauses. The first clause says the Brits see the necessity for the creation of a Jewish homeland (a place to live and make your home, not a country or a state) IN PALESTINE (the region called that, part of the former Ottoman empire ), and the second clause states in essence that NOTHING IS TO BE DONE WHICH will or might infringe the rights of ALL the existing and prior people living there, jewish or not. NOBODY paid any attention to the second clause when they allowed Israel to be set up. Even the rights of the indigenous arabic-speaking Jews born in Palestine were violated by the zionists, who despised them.
well, Dick you obviously haven'r read it yourself. There is nothing there about political rights of the non-Jewish population. Just civil and religious. Second, Balfour Declaration is no longer relevant. It was a vague promise to start with, it was superseded by the League of Nations mandate, and finally by the UN partition plan and the acceptance of Israel by the UN. You can harp all you want about what Balfour promised exactly, a state, an autonomy, a dhimmitude or else, that ship has sailed and it ain't going back. Get over it.
The Arab League consists of 22 states controlling 13 million sq kms of land as opposed to Israel which consists of 26000 sq kms of land yet Arabs who left or were forced to leave Israel Palestine 70 years ago are still refugees while the Jews who left or were expelled from the Arab league states 70 years ago found full citizenship in the newly created state of Israel. Arabs of Palestinian decent are still treated with contempt in the Arab League states today because the Arab League passed resolution 1458 in 1959 that clearly instructed to refrain from granting citizenship to Arabs of Palestinian descent.
this is to show the world the brutal behaviour of the arab countries who still did not take in these poor palestinian brothers and did not settle them in their big countries , , , why did they not take in these palestinian brothers ,? ? ? , israel took in all the jews kicked out by the arab countries, , the whole world is shocked to see the rich arabs notdoing this humanitarian thing.
factually inaccurate. Jews were not expelled from arab countries as a result of the declaration of Israel or the subsequent arab defeat. Some left, a tiny minority, fearing violence in retaliation for the arab defeat. It never came. Most stayed where they were, until much later, when they were urged and invited by the Israeli govt to move to Israel, in the 50s and 60s. Hundreds of thousands came, from Morocco to Lebanon, Iraq to Saudi Arabia . They couldn't have come if they'd already been expelled in 1948,
@@erichitter1025 I think there is some miseducation on your part. There was also this large campaign to gather all the Jews from the Arab nations vs. the push out from the Arab nations, That is where the misconception of this push vs invite occurs unfortunately. I
