Why don't you start raving a little about Spain's rape of Central and South America, and how about our own country treatment of it's own Indians in the last 200 years.
Perhaps before you tell me to "learn history", you should learn geography and read the title to this thread. You are using the standard Zionist tactic of pointing fingers at others. How about we take a look Plan Dalet, the Zionist plan to expel the Arab population, a formalization of the decades-old wish to create a 100% Jewish State.

You make me laugh with your "intended to set up a "United States of Palestine", modeled after what, the current dictatorship and autocratic regimes around Israel? Under what Law, the Sharia? Why would the Israeli submit to such an affront voluntarily?
Perhaps they didn't discuss this proposal in your kibbutz. The Arab Higher Committee proposed to the Ad Hoc Committee of the UN a democratic regime, which would respect all citizens equally. It is curious that you consider this an "affront". But then, Israel has always been a "democracy" whose greatest fear is assimilation, a rather peculiar setup in and of itself. In addition, an alternate plan was drawn up by the UN, to have one nation, with an arab and a Jewish state. This, too, fell by the wayside due to Zionist pressures.
