Don't you think the UN 1947 plan supersedes the failed League of Nations, Dave?

Look at your frigging map........the same self serving idiots who created the Iraqi mandate/mess are the same ones who created the Palestinian mandate........a colonial power doing what worked best for it and not the people who live in the ME. Of course, that may is from 1920...........by 1944 the Jewish terrorists had blown up the Hotel David in Jerusalem, killing lots of Brits, and the Brits were no longer in favor of giving the Jews anything. However, that's when the US stepped in and demanded the Jews get something. Eventually, the UN, over the objections of many, gave them the land that constitutes present day Israel. It was not a popular decision but the Israelis have run with it and have bullied their way into getting more land and water.......at the expense of the Palestinians. As I have said repeatedly, there is nothing pretty about either side........Israelis vs Arabs......but the Israelis have become bullies, pig and thieves. I don't want my tax money supporting them.


This is just racism on your part and as such, I'm not sure there is any point in arguing about it.


Huh? Explain please.

But there was never a "Palestinian State", even though the Jews are willing to give them one now. All 51 participating states in the League of Nations voted in support of the map I posted. And so, you want to arbitrarily point to a map revised after the murder of millions of Jews, as though it were somehow authoritative.

The UN succeeded the League of Nations. The UN Partition succeeded the 1920 map you posted.

This is racist bullshit if you ask me. The Jews took what was, at the time, a worthless piece of land, and turned it into something, and now the Arabs are saying, "Oh, we want what you have." Well, bullshit.


Who told you it was a worthless piece of land? It was worth a lot to the Palestinians. They owned property, had businesses, farms and homes on that land. Who told you it was worthless? Oh wait......was it an Israeli.

If they want to take on Israel they do so at their own peril. If Israel has to wipe out the Palestinians to be able to protect their own homeland then that's what they have to do. There will always be those who support pushing Israel right into the water, but your motives are questionable.

I see.........so if Russian feels threatened which they do, they have a right to take over Alaska. Interesting game rules you have, o wise one.
