and now they're at the 4th picture

Looks like Israel is dead set on annihilating all Palestinians to me.

Get OVER Versailles, Dave. The League of Nations was superseded by the UN, which set the border in 1967. End of story.

before the pro-Arab/Jew hating forces took control of the British.

And why did that happen? That was because the Jews in Palestine turned to terrorism.They attacked Arabs, British and Jews seen as not zealous enough. They threw bombs into markets, sent letter bombs even planted bombs in London.and Rome. They kidnapped two British officers, killed them and planted bombs on their bodies.

So yeah, the Brits weren't wild about rewarding terrorists. But you think they were obligated to.

Why?

The first picture is about 20% of what the Jews were promised by the British at Versailles before the pro-Arab/Jew hating forces took control of the British.

That decision cannot be discounted, much as some of you would like to do. You don't make a commitment like that then just change your mind after the fact.

The second picture would have held until this day had the Arabs not attacked the Jews time and time again.


Like I have said previously, you need to read very closely the history leading up to the establishment of the state of Israel. I don't know what this Versailles shit you're talking about is but the basis for the Zionists' hope for a Jewish state in Palestine was the Balfour Declaration. It was a promise made to one of the Rothchilds in payment for some weaponry created and provided by Rothchild to the Allies in WW I. The Balfour Declaration was the initial stage for setting up the British Mandate of Palestine. It never ever promised all of historic Palestine to the Zionists..........which sorely disappointed them and made them angry. In fact, it was never really clear what part of Palestine would go to the Zionists and what part to the Arabs, or if there would be any breakout in favor of one or the other group. I think the Brits initial intention was to have them all live together in one country............that turned out to be a very bad mistake:

The Balfour Declaration (dated 2 November 1917) was a letter from the United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour to Baron Rothschild (Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild), a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland.

His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.[1]


The text of the letter was published in the press one week later, on 9 November 1917. [2] The "Balfour Declaration" was later incorporated into the Sèvres peace treaty with the Ottoman Empire and the Mandate for Palestine. The original document is kept at the British Library.
