Axe Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 17 minutes ago, Al Bundy said: Jews have had historical and religious connections to the Land of Israel for thousands of years, which would probably explain why they thought it was an appropriate place for the Jews around Europe to settle after WW2. Seems sensible to me. Correct. At the time just after WW2 most of the land was desert. Israel has transformed the land and created agriculture on desert land. It has been an agriculture revolution which is the envy of the World. The Jews are hard workers which throughout history has attracted envy a prejudicial behaviour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do people think that if thousands of Muslims or Arabs were given that land after WW2 there would have been such carnage? Of course not, it's just plain hatred of Jews.

Depends on who you believe, historically you would have to say Israel's but more recent Palestine. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12630283/Hamas-arrested-Met-Police-pro-Palestinian-protesters-London-officers.html You would think that the protests would be about getting rid of Hamas, but no. 🙄 Edited October 14, 2023 by Al Bundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over many years a lot of Jews left and settled all over the world, but very large populations in Germany, Poland & Russia. When Hitler started decimating them, and Russia followed on, those who survived had to look elsewhere until WW2 ended and then we, The UN, and US decided. to put them back to where they originated and then trouble brewed between the Israeli's and the Palestinians who considered their land had been stolen. Israel since then, has kept taking more and more Palestinian land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delbow Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 In justifying the forthcoming ethnic cleansing / possible genocide of ordinary Palestinians, the Israeli president has said: "It is an entire nation out there that is responsible. It's not true this rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved. It's absolutely not true. "They could have risen up, they could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup 'd état." But following that logic, Jewish Germans who didn't fight or rise up against the Nazi Party in the 1920s and 1930s were morally responsible for the atrocities committed by the Nazis? By the same logic, ALL Russians are responsible for the war crimes in Ukraine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they send Mossad all around the world to assassinate all the top islamic terrorists and supporters of Hamas like they did after the Munich murders Maybe take out a few in the UK too I could think of a few names Edited October 14, 2023 by Jack Grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
