No, you get off your lazy butt and do your own research.Why not direct us to a really top expert in this field, Amity, to prove what you are saying? Something big like this would be in some important medical journal, not some piece some anti-Israel guy came up with? Surely you should be able to do this for us.
Ariella Oppenheim, Hadassah Medical Center, Hebrew University. If you got out of high school you ought to be able to look that up. Go to the library and they'll help you.
Guess Amity can't direct us to an expert's paper in a leading medical journal. This would be an important discovery and would certainly be discussed in a medical journal and at conferences for the people who are experts in the field.
Don't you just love it when posters bring up the money for Israel. As one poster, a retired naval officer once said, if Americans knew how much Israel helped America, Americans would deny her nothing. Meanwhile, the money allocated to Israel must be mainly spent here in our defense industry, giving jobs to American workers. Perhaps, for example, Amity could drag herself away from her computer and go to Grants Pass, Oregon and ask the people there working in one of the defense plants if they like having jobs. Of course we know that the money given to others usually lands up in the pocket of some tyrant and his henchmen.
Yes, it needs bringing up. We are spending billions of dollars to equip a totalitarian regime that is one of the most oppressive in history. And it is money we need here. We can find those folks in Grants Pass better jobs beating swords into plowshares. When we finally get this thing resolved there will be a huge economy to retool.
I absolutely do not believe they know stuff from shinola the way they talk. It does not even sound familiar. Unless you can provide specifics, you're done. Nothing could be worse.

Oh my God, I have never seen anyone more intellectually helpless. It is going to be in the Journal of Hebrew Studies or whatever professional journal Hadassah Medical Center puts out. Get it in gear and find it.
As a matter of fact, there IS a plant being set up. You must be psychic.
I didn't know there was a conference.Doesn't it look like, folks, that Amity is unable to pull up this very important finding in a legitimate medical journal and also pull up news about the conference held attended by experts in this field from all over the world?.

Amity, don't you realize you were done when you started. All you were doing, as another member from the Boiler Room, is repeat the same old, same old stuff readers have heard for ages.
Look if you really want to do something to help (and I haven't had any sense that you really DO want to help...), there are several good nonprofits that do good work, not like some guy who goes into Jordan and "sets up a plant." Genuinely good work. I like ANERA. And if you mean what you say about economic development as a means of easing tension, you will support them. It is very much needed, believe me. The average Palestinian living in a camp in Lebanon, for example, lives on $7 per day, in a country that has a cost of living not much lower than in the states. Can you imagine trying to survive on $7 a day where you live? Schools, healthcare, business loans, clothing, transportation, even good quality food are all in very short supply.Why don't you tell us what this new plant will manufacture and where it is located?
P F Tinmore, et al,
You read so much into an isolated word.
(OBSERVATION)trusteeship
Key word. The territory was held in trust on behalf of the people. Not the Mexican people. Not the Canadian people. Not the European people.
It was held in trust for the Palestinian people.
Series of League of Nations Publications VI.A. MANDATES 1945. VI.A. 1 said:The nations upon which such powers of guardianship are conferred exercise them "as Mandatories on behalf of the League". In other words, the administration of these territories is delegated to them. This involves an obligation on their part to render account of their administration to the League of Nations.
SOURCE: LoN/1945.VI.A.1 30 April 1945
(COMMENT)
In all "trusts" - there are "obligations." As is often paraphrased from the FDR speech for the Jefferson Day Dinner in 1945: "With Great Power comes Great Responsibility."
First, the Mandate was on behalf of the League of Nations, and NOT (repeat) NOT on behalf of the people of Palestine (as defined in the Palestine Order in Council - meaning: territories to which the Mandate for Palestine applies, hereinafter described as Palestine.); or any other individual state.
Second, the obligation of the Mandatory is to the League of Nations:
Series of League of Nations Publications VI.A. MANDATES 1945. VI.A. 1 said:The acceptance by a nation of this mission carries with it certain obligations and responsibilities established by law. Like guardians in civil law, they must exercise their authority in the interests of their wards -- that is to say, of the peoples which are regarded as minors -- and must maintain an entirely disinterested attitude in their dealings with them. The territories with the administration of which they are entrusted must not be exploited by them for their own profit.
There is no question in my mind - that at the end of the day - come the termination of the Mandate, that the inhabitants had reached a more advanced stage of development and their independence could, in principle, be recognized by the Covenant itself; and that there be the establishment of the Jewish national home in the interests of the Jewish population in Palestine and internationally --- all Jews willing to assist in the establishment of the Jewish national home.
There are a few points to be made here.
- The Mandatory (the UK in this case), is subordinate to the Covenant (the League of Nations), just the dame as an appointed Trustee is subordinate to the will of the Court in civil law. The Mandate itself is not written in stone, but pliable to the will of the Covenant.
- The obligation is to the Covenant, with the idea that the best interest of the people are looked after, yet not always what the indigenous population may want (parental oversight).
- You will notice that the Mandate speaks of "self-governing institutions" (plural). Meaning that more than one institution may be established.
- And finally, "self-governance" was never established geographically (except for Trans Jordan), nor was there a specification on how to establish a Jewish National Home. There was never an outline establish limiting the scope and nature of either how to affect a Jewish National Home or self-governing institutions. (That would not come until the Resolution of 1947.)
Of course, through the process - no one can argue successfully that the Arab indigenous population did not have a right to a self-governing institution. But the expanse, scope and nature of such was never defined until 1947.

Yeah, Amity vets all the sources, and when it is one she doesn't like, it is FAKE in her mind, never once thinking that many think her sources are FAKE and that Arab Propaganda is the best in the world. They probably learned from those old Nazis who went to the Middle East after World War II and wrote propaganda for the Arabs.
Amity, don't you realize you were done when you started. All you were doing, as another member from the Boiler Room, is repeat the same old, same old stuff readers have heard for ages.
"Lady". Ha ha ha ha!Billo, you are a very insightful lady.
It is obvious that they are NOT 'Jewish' under the definition employed either by the State of Israel or Jewish religious law. Not only that, they don't seem to have the slightest desire to be Jewish, and in fact Arab and other Muslim people routinely accuse whoever they wish to demonize of being 'a Jew'......
They ARE Jews under the definition Israel uses, which is based on nothing but ancestry and self-identification. Some Israeli statesman once said "A Jew is whoever says he is." That, plus ancestry.
WANT to be Jewish? Most would not want to be practicing Jews, of course not, but it does expose the bankruptcy of the Law of Return.
Try again, so far all that you have posted are regurgitated lies and false propaganda that has been heard and debunked a thousand times. Your fresh air is worse than what you breath in a public restroom.Amity, don't you realize you were done when you started. All you were doing, as another member from the Boiler Room, is repeat the same old, same old stuff readers have heard for ages.
The intellectual atmosphere on this particular forum is so mindlessly rote Zionist with nothing particularly useful being said that I am a breath of fresh air by comparison. And I think for that reason if for no other it needs to continue in a limited way. There are a few good and sincere souls who deserve to get some truth out of all this.

Why do you say all that. I don't see the relevance.
It is clear who the Palestinians were and that the mandate was supposed to bring them to independence.
"Lady". Ha ha ha ha!Billo, you are a very insightful lady.
If the system is cruel, it's not a "sometimes" problem, it's a "systemic" one.I know more about the IDF and its sometimes cruelty than 1000 stories of breaking the silence. I lived among IDF soldiers from the day I was born and tasted the cruelty of the system.
And systemic problems require immediate attention, something you're not willing to do.
It's not what it tells you, it's what it tells me, about you."Breaking the silence" tells me nothing new. So you can take that site and shove it.
You're reactions to some of their comments, say a lot about you as a person.
Especially the ones where you have "no" reaction, or refuse to even comment on what they said, like their use of "johnnies".
Not if you ask my ex-girlfriend.Billo, you are a very insightful lady.
