And the League, which you so pointlessly brought up, gave Britain its Mandate to rule what was then called inapproprately "Palestine" after what the Romans had called it (incidentally, the word "Palestina" is a Latinised version of the word "Philistia", the people of whom are called "Philistines", an ancient enemy of ours. The Romans called it that in an attempt, fortunately unsuccessful, to de-Judaeise the region). By the time 1948 came around, the League didn't even exist any longer. So bringing that failed institution up was just stupid on your part. It had nothing to do with the decision Britain made to LEAVE the region to its own devices in May of that year, if memory serves me well.
So, if I were you, by this point in the argument I would be feeling like such an ass and a fool that I would turn tail and run for the hills. Lets recap, just for those who need to know briefly how I've made you look like a dumbass.
1). Israel is NOT like Germany. Germany killed 11 million persons in her camps in 12 years, 6 million of them Jewish. The "Palestinian" pop. on the other hand has multiplied by FOUR times in 49 years.
2). "Palestinians" can actually protest their treatment in the Supreme Court of Israel, where they often win. No other occupied people in the world has that prerogative.
3). "Palestinians" were invited by Jews to share the country with them in 1948. Many chose to do so, and, as Israeli Arabs, have full rights as citizens. Most of them, in poll after poll, have stated repeatedly that although Israel is not perfect, they would MUCH prefer their current status as citizens of Israel as opposed to any "Palestinian" State.
4). The "Palestinians" who rejected the idea in (3) fled at the request/order of the five invading Arab Armies after Israel declared independence. It was their choice to leave, and lose their homes.
5). Atrocities were committed by both sides, albeit far more by Arabs. And the ones done by Jews were usually punished when known about. The Arabs continue to uphold the perpetrators of theirs as heroes.
6). When someone starts a war with you, you are permitted to kill as many combatants as needed to force a surrender, which is what Israel did fighting five invading armies in1948.
7). The "Palestinians" NEVER had self government at any point in their history. The Israeli Arabs have far more rights than Arabs living in that region HAVE EVER HAD at any time.
(8 ). Jews are the sons of Isaac. Arabs are the sons of Ishmael. They are not the same people, although they ARE both Semitic, along with some other groups.
9). The Levant is not on the Arabian Peninsula.
10). Israel already TRIED something unprecedented by completely evacuating the Gaza Strip. In return, mass weapons were imported and rockets were rained on their heads. A blockade was introduced by Israel AND Egypt, although THE ONLY ONE THE WHINY MEDIA EVER TALKS ABOUT is the Israeli blockade.
11). Hamas openly calls for Israel's destruction. The PA teaches its children that Israel doesn't exist.
12). Without the British, the Arabs would never have known what oil was, or that they had any, or how to get it, or what to do with it.
The last point about the use of the word "Israeli" is just above, so I won't cover it here. But I think that about wraps up the argument, and puts a tying bow on making jroa look like the fool he is. Please note that that was NOT my original intent. But when someone deliberately acts like an anti-Semitic asshole, I shall respond.
I hope this argument can rest here. But that is up to him.
