| Palestinian leadership along with all Islamic states refuse ANY partition that would give Jews sovereignty and national self-determination.Then, resulting from the Holocaust (and yes, Arabs played a part) hundreds of thousands of Jewish refugees had nowhere to go and no communities to support them.The UN voted to partition Palestine, and give the Jews a state (mostly desert) and the Palestinians a state (in addition to Jordan-70% of the Mandate, closed off to Jews to this day).5 Arab states join the Palestinians in defiance of the UN, launch a war against Israel on the first day of its existence with the explicitly stated goal of committing genocide against the Jews there.Then hundreds of thousands of Jews are expelled from Arab lands having their land (5xIsrael) expropriated and their property confiscated, in addition to thousands of Jews expelled by Jordan from Jerusalem, where they have been living for millenia.Jordan occupies West Bank, Egypt-Gaza and WERE supposed to feel bad? |
