Tom, do you know how many Arabs (in numbers) entered Palestine since 1917, before Jews kicked them-out?

Remember when Israel declared it's independence after the UN resolution establishing the Isreali state? "On November 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the United Nations voted with a 2/3 majority to partition western Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab state...Over 75% of the land allocated to the Jews was desert. Desperate to find a haven for the remnants of European Jewry after the Holocaust, the Jewish population accepted the plan which accorded them a diminished state. The Arabs, intent on preventing any Jewish entity in Palestine, rejected it.(2) The Arabs not only rejected partition, but attacked Israel from all sides. On the day that Israel declared its independence, the Arab League Secretary, General Azzam Pasha declared "jihad", a holy war. He said, "This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades".(1) The Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin Al Husseini stated, "I declare a holy war, my Moslem brothers! Murder the Jews! Murder them all!" (2) The armies of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt and Iraq invaded the tiny new country with the declared intent of destroying it.(3)" Sinai Campaign of 1956: "Egypt sealed off the Israeli port of Eilat, effectively stopping Israel's sea trade with much of Africa and the Far East.(1) In response to this violation of international agreements which amounted to an act of war, Israel launched a military operation on October 29, 1956. At the same time, Britain and France, angered over the Egyptian nationalization of the Suez canal, launched their own campaign in order to reverse Egypt's unilateral action. In March 1957, after receiving international guarantees that Israel's vital waterways would remain open, Israel withdrew her troops from the Sinai and Gaza strip. Three thousand three hundred United Nations troops replaced them. Despite Israel's withdrawal, the Egyptians refused to open the Suez canal to Israeli shipping. " The Arab Position/May 1967: On the 26th of May, President Nasser of Egypt declared, "Our basic goal is the destruction of Israel. The Arab people want to fight" Yom Kippur: "Shortly after midday on Saturday, October 6, 1973, Egypt and Syria launched a concerted military attack against Israel. They had chosen to attack on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, a day when most Israelis were in synagogues praying and fasting. While Egyptian troops and helicopters crossed the Suez canal, Syrian troops began to attack Israel's installations in the Golan."

By 1947, the number of Jews in Palestine had reached approximately six hundred and fifty thousand, that is thirty one percent of the total population. Thus they began to establish their organisations, civil and martial which were trained in organised terrorism. From these a large number were trained in and participated in the Second World War in order to gain experience and skills to go to battle in Palestine in the next stage. So when the United Nations decreed the division of Palestine, the Jews had seventy five thousand armed and trained members who were split amongst a number of militias. This period witnessed heated clashes and a brilliant Jihad against the transgressing enemy which was bent on destroying the land and the people. The Palestinian people offered thousands of martyrs for their religion, honour, land, and dignity. 'Israel' established The 1948 war began in May and was immediately after the withdrawal of the British forces from Palestine after the Zionist militias completed their stores of arms and ammunition, and their forces reached one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers leading to the Arabic regimes and quasi-regimes to send their forces to Palestine unprepared and not even in agreement with respect to a particular plan. This of course is natural with an army where the leadership positions are taken by the English who were agents for the Israeli. islam.org.au Sadat started on this road in an open manner when he visited AlQuds and signed the Camp David accord. This opened the way for the children of Zion to dominate Egyptian markets economically, culturally, and through the media. He was followed in this policy by Yaser Arafat who imposed himself onto the leadership of the PLO. Arafat was in turn followed by the Hashimite devil Husain through his signing of the last peace treaty with Israel. These will be followed in the near future with peace treaties with Syria and Lebanon (May Allah forbid this).
