All during the Mandate, the British put Al-Husseini as Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who started the riots against the Jews in 1920. Even if he was later wanted for those attacks and expelled, he continued to inciteA few things you are missing.Britain, the world superpower of the time, attacking Palestinian civilians.Indeed, yes, Arabs-Moslems helped the British. And, indeed, the Arabs-Moslems were unable to manage their affairs and build a workable society.
Indeed, as then, now.
The Palestinians should have kicked their ass.![]()
Yet they themselves helped Britain invade.
Jews did kick the asses of British occupiers to get independence, Arabs whined and attacked the Jews.
Arabs have no-one to blame for their own choices.
All during the Mandate, Britain allowed the Jews developed their military.
By 1939, Britain had the Palestinians disarmed and their leaders were expelled or killed.
Britain was broke and exhausted from WWII.
By 1948 it was a piece of cake for Israel's military to roll across Palestine expelling unarmed civilians.
Arabs against Jews, be it in the Mandate, or in Iraq - where the Faroud happened in 1941 because of him.
Are you seriously telling us that the Arabs in the Mandate did not build themselves an arsenal and use them against the Jews in 1920, 1921, 1929, 1936 to 1939 and continued to use them all the way to 1947 and 1948?
Are you seriously telling us that the Jews were supposed to just sit there unarmed and not buy weapons and then in 1936 start building themselves a military to deal not only with the Arabs but the British who went back on their word again because of Arab violence?
And you seem to be seriously saying that Israel, once Independent, decided to "roll across the Mandate of Palestine" and expel "unarmed civilians" instead of most of them fleeing at their Arab and Jordanian leaders, or expelled because they were attacking Jews with the guns they got since 1920.
Arabs have the right and must defend themselves against the Jews, but the Jews - the indigenous people - do not have the right to defend themselves since the first Arab attack on them in 1920.
Arabs have the right to attack and expel, but the Jews do not have the right to defense, and letting those who do not want to live in Israel peacefully go, since they started the 1948 war actually in November of 1947 after the UN recognized Israel as a country and the Arabs once again refused the partition because the other side was Jewish.
Muslims love to have their Jews under them.
Jews love to have the Muslims and Christians with them.
Maybe some day you will understand the difference.You forget what it was that the UN wanted to partition.the Arabs once again refused the partition because the other side was Jewish.
You forgot that there was a realization the Arabs-Moslems were incapable of accepting a state that included Jews as equals deserving equal rights.
