Bear in mind that the Palestinian people aided the British in WWII, at the same time that the Zionists were fighting against the British Gee, is that what they say now? This is getting more and more Orwellian. Both the Palmach and Irgun fought on the British side in WWII in the Jewish Battalion. The Mufti, on the other hand, was a Nazi who spent the war years in Berlin. Or have these facts dropped down the memory hole? The Zionists made their share of attempts to ally themselves with the Nazis, but were rejected. Should I thank you that you've now aimed your calumnies at Shamir, the intended target? Negotiating with the Third Reich in an attempt to rescue refugees is hardly an attempted "alliance". The absurdity of any Zionist attempt to ally itself with a regime founded on the hatred of Jews, their degradation and enslavement (no one but Hitler had yet conceived of the Final Solution) should be obvious to any sane person. I guess you don't qualify.

Just noticed a priceless quote from your link: In general, Palestinians and Arabs are VERY PROUD that they were among the FEW who did not collaborate openly with Nazis. On the other hand, the people and governments of France, Italy, Japan, Romania, Croatia, Chechnya, Bulgaria, Switzerland, ..etc. collaborated openly with the Nazis. Sadly, many of these people happily pointed out their Jewish neighbors and citizens to the Gestapo. If such rule must be applied toward the Palestinian people, then it must be applied with equal proportions to others. Very proud, huh? I can point out one other thing that the Palestinians did NOT have in common with the aforementioned governments: they were not occupied by Germany or an Axis regime! (Why Switzerland is in the list I can't imagine.) Rommel failed to conquer Palestine, and the Palestinian Arabs remained under the British Mandate. Now they claim MERIT for not collaborating with a government they never had! They just wished they had a German government. The Mufti wasn't some sort of a fringe character -- he was a national hero! Can anyone doubt the eager collaboration the Gestapo would have received if they had even been in a position to ask for the names and whereabouts of the Jews of Palestine? These guys have brass, I'll say that much.
