Great analysis of the left's rapid slide into anti-Semitism

All a matter of semantics. According to History citing one of dozens of sources that could be used:

". . .As for the UN’s “license,” the argument on its behalf was based on the dramatic vote, still fresh in memory, that had taken place on November 29, 1947 at a meeting of the United Nations in its then-headquarters in Flushing Meadows, New York. Then and there the General Assembly, by a two-thirds majority, recommended a plan for “Independent Arab and Jewish States” and a “Special International Regime for the City of Jerusalem,” to be implemented two months after the British evacuation but no later than October 1, 1948. . ."

Did the UN Create Israel? » Mosaic

On May 14, 1948, Israel’s founders wanted to emphasize to the world that while the Jewish people had been born in the Land of Israel, its state was the adopted child of the United Nations.

The fact is nobody 'owned' the land now occupied by the tiny TINY state of Israel, but it had been under British control since 1917. Britain supported the creation of a Jewish state.

The U.N. accepted Israel as a member state May 11, 1949.

The war began soon after the non binding vote and the SC never adopted. It is a fact not semantics. Israel won it's independence like the USA did, through war.

In the beginning of the Mandate the Brits didn't support ethnic cleansing or a two state solution, but a Jewish homeland as citizens of Palestine.

If is the most powerful word in the universe!

The resolution still needed the Security Counsels approval and then member nations, and their militaries, to impose the resolution on the Mandate. Hostilities escalated after the GA vote and by the time the UK quit the Mandate the war for control of the land was raging.

Whatever. I am glad that the Jews exploited Arab aggression by expanding their boarders.

The day after Ben-Gurion declared the State of Israel, the Arabs attacked. The Israelis, already independent but greatly outnumbered, managed to fight them off. The U.N. gave Israel the land. They didn't win it in war though they did increase their acreage a bit because of that war.

The concept of the trolls that Israel stole that land is preprosterous, flies in the face of the actual history, and in my opinion comes from blatant antisemitism.

They couldn't declare war on Israel until Israel declared themselves independent, which couldn't happen until the UK officially quit the Mandate. The war was already on, and several Arab states had sent in irregular troops to help the villages try and hold off the Jewish land grab in land that was designated Arab Land in the Partition Plan.

I know the history. It is of course your constitutional right to express your opinion. Do have a nice day.
