Consheff Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Apparently the Jews held those lands approximately 1000 yrs bce so they were Jewish lands long before hammas was even thought of. https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/timeline-for-the-history-of-jerusalem-4500-bce-present Edited May 13, 2021 by Consheff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janie48 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Apart from the Balfour declaration and all the other history, I think the Holocaust played a significant part in why so many Jewish people went to live in Israel after the second World War. Many of the thousands of Jewish refugees, that had survived and were left homeless had to go somewhere and many were often refused entry to a country where they would be have felt welcome and safe. This country limited their access yet refused to allow them to go to Palestine etc until 1948. So maybe it is a degree of antisemitism to some extent as to why so many decided they would be better living in the place they consider to be the land of their ancestors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hauxwell Posted May 13, 2021 Author Share Posted May 13, 2021 I was going to say thank heavens they don’t have nuclear weapons. However I’m not sure if Israel possesses a few nuclear warheads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Israel seems very advanced when it comes to weapons so it wouldn’t surprise me if they did. I am out of my depth when it comes to countries with advanced weapons.

But that doesnt mean firing rockets is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
