FIRST, the West Bank and Gaza DO NOT, and, have NEVER belonged to Israel - the region called Arab Palestine BEFORE 1948 was 93% Arab until the invasion of ILLEGAL foreign European Jews, whom demanded a chunk of Arab Palestinian land for their homeland, formed murderous Jewish terrorist groups ,actually LABELED as such by their VERY own British protectors, IRGUN(now Likud), the Sstern Gang, Levi, Lehi, Haganah(Irgun were so blood thirsty and murderous, this one actually attempted UNSUCCESSFULLY, to rien Irgun in), went on the rampage killing Arabs and stealing their land to ILLEGALLY form Israel in 1948 - UN ratified it a day AFTER Israel formed - the Ottomans were occupiers, NOT OWNERS, of Arab Palestine, as so many Pro Israelies love claiming - same with the British - Arab armies(no Jews participated - Jews outside of Arab Palestine fought with the Ottomans)- the British were UN assigned OCCUPIERS - not owners. The British recommended political, not LAND BORDERS FOR JEWS AND ARABS- both sides refused - Arabs feeling why should they give up THEIR land they fought to protect, to some foreign ILLEGAL invaders - Jews felt they should murder, and, steal it. Of course, the Arabs revolted in 1936-1939 - the British squashed the REVOLT, taking most of the Arabs's military equipment - leaving them essentially defenseless against the Jewish terrorists.
Myth: Arab armies attacked Israel in 1948 and Israel miraculously won against odds. Fact: This attack is a myth that is spread by the Israeli propaganda and unfortunately does not get challenged enough by the pro-Palestinian side. "Attack" implies an act of aggression.
The one who attacked were the Zionists who started attacking Arab towns and villages nearly 5 months before Arab armies arrived. The Arab armies only intervened to defend the part of Palestine which was allocated to the Arab state by the UN partition plan, and they had explicit orders of not attempting to attack any land beyond that allocated to the Arab state. By the time Arab armies (20,000 in total) arrived, the Zionist forces (which outnumbered the Arab armies 3 to 1) had already occupied 1/3 of the land allocated to the Arab state.
By the time the war was over, Israel occupied more than 50% of the land allocated to the Arab State by the UN. So Israel was the aggressor and the Arabs were just defending their land from Israeli occupation. Had the Arab armies not arrived (though too late), all of Palestine would have fallen to the Zionists in 1948.
SECOND, ARABS ARE SEMITES TO.NO ONE CAN DENY THE FOLLOWING FACTS UNLESS THEY ARE MENTALLY CHALLENGED: Pre 1948 ARAB Palestine(population 93% Arab, less than 5% MIDDLE EASTERN,NO EUROPEAN JEWS- After 1948 Israel-70% (50% European Jews, 20 % Middle Eastern Jews),30% Arabs. The West Bank and Gaza strips- 70% Arabs (AND SHRINKING FROM ISRAELIE ILLEGAL SETTLEMENTS AND ETHNIC CLEANSING), 30% Jews. Myth (half truth): Israel bought the land.
Fact: The truth is that Jews (not Israel) bought about 7% of the land before 1948. Most of the rest was owned by Palestinians as documented by the British Mandate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Man... Actually, it started in Biblical times when Isaac stole Ishmael's inheritance.In modern times it started in 1922(Arab armies-no Jews participated(outside of Arab Palestine, Jews fought with the Ottomans)-threw off the Ottoman Empire Occupiers(few Turks owned land in Arab Palestine)-the UN then assigned Britain as an occupier when the ILLEGAL Foreign European Jewish immigrants swelled Arab Palestine's(93% Arab) from less than 5% Middle Eastern Jews to 35%(mostly European Jews).
These Jews became belligerent, demanding a chunk of Arab Palestine for a homeland from the British UN assigned occupiers. The British attempted to set up POLITICAL, NOT, land borders for Jews and Arabs-this is the British Mandate. The Jews were not satisfied and formed murderous Jewish terrorist groups, labeled as such by the British-Likud(oops, IRGUN before being elected), the Stern Gang, Lehi, Levi, Haganah, and many others and started slaughtering their Arab hosts and stealing THEIR land to ILLEGALLY form Israel(UN ratified a day AFTER the fact) in 1948.
The Israelies continue stealing Arab land through murder up to the present. They must stop laying the blame on God and the British. You want REAL terrorists- makes the Nazis look like pansies- type Irgun in your Google browser - they are a murderous Jewish group one of many labeled as such by the British.
Irgun was OFFICIALLY labeled murderous Jewish terrorist group by the British.No one associates Jews with being terrorists- the Irgun were worse than ANY Arab terrorist group- Irgun used grenades and car bombs to kill Arabs, foreign dignitaries, EVEN Jews opposing their methods, they sniped innocent unarmed Arabs in the back, dropped Arab men women, children, and, babies off building roof tops, bull dozed houses using tanks with Arab families being buried alive, doused Arabs in kerosene and burned them alive, poisoned water sources,crushed Arab women's belly's by stomping on them or standing on enough men on them until they were killed,gang- raped Arab women and young girls 13 and under, then shooting them as they screamed in terror, in non vital areas, finally, a fatal bullet to the head where the infamous IDF term"Confirming the kill" arouse. THEY WERE SO BRUTAL AND MURDEROUS, ANOTHER SUCH GROUP,HAGANAH, ATTEMPTED UNSUCCESSFULLY, TO REIN THEM IN. GEE- Bottomline- the Jews slaughtered the Arabs and stole their land.
Biblically, Ishmael(Arabs) was born 23 years BEFORE Isaac(Jews). Technically Abraham was not Jewish-his ancestry is from Babylon inside the Arabian, not, Jewish, Peninsula/ Canaan/ God's promised land. He was Semitic, possibly Hebrew(Jewish and Hebrew are not the same-although laypersons consider them the same), he was not Jewish-may well have been Arab).
No more dishonest than Israel saying that all the peoples who lived there long before the first Israelite arrived have all died out with no modern day descendants. Jerusalem was founded at least 1000 years before the Israelites arrived. I think the founders were allied to the Pharaoh in Egypt.
So, perhaps Egypt has a better claim to Jerusalem that modern day Jews.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
