It was as a result of Zionism and the establishment of Isra'El over the objections of the majority culture there at the time, that resulted in Jews being harassed and either made to flee or to leave of their own desires.

I don't recall many occidental Jews being fervent Zionists. Zionism spawned out of the European and Russian Jewish communities.

So exactly what was the rational for those Arab regimes, you seem to admire, to deport them and confiscate their personal property without restitution?

Arabs are free to choose any form of government they please, of course

They are? What exactly is the political mechanism by which they assert this "choice"?? It's not like they hold authentic elections where various governmental choices are presented to them to be voted on.

What a moronic statement..

Isra'El is a Western colony and its form of democracy is for Jews only.

So you obviously believe that Arabs are not capable of democracy, nor possess inalienable human or civil rights...

Does that mean we now have free reign to kill them all because the only rights they possess are those bestowed upon them by their rulers??

As for colonies, who exactly do you think permitted/facilitated the current rulers of many of these Arab states to assume centralized power?? The British, French, and to a limited degree, the US..

ALL Arab nations which were carved out of the remnants of the Ottoman Empire are ARTIFICIAL, and effectively "western colonies". They would not exist were it not for the apportionment of various territory under the control of "reliable" allies.
