83,000+ German Jews fought for the Kaiser as "Huns" on the side of Germany in World War I, the war to end all wars. In 1919 (months after the war to end all wars, was over), no one could have possibly imagined the horrors that a would be 30 year old, non-smoking, vegetarian artist from Austria (who fought in the trenches as an ally to the Huns) was about to unleash upon the earth in his now, aspiring, political career. But it was his infernal actions that convinced the nations of the earth (not just France and the British Empire, ALL OF THEM including the communist ones) that maybe it would be good idea to get the surviving Jews the fuck out of Europe and into their very own country where they can take care of themselves and prevent their own genocide? And the choice as to where that country should be was plainly obvious; where is Jerusalem?aTm wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2024 10:16 amThe problem from a nation-state perspective, is that Palestine under Eastern rule was more of a borderlands area between varying administrative centers than its own thing with any kind of unity. The northern part was ruled from Beirut and the southern part was part of the Hejaz ruled from Mecca or Jeddah. The blame for pretty much everything can be laid directly at the feet of the British and the French, who divided up the entire region as spoils of war after World War 1innocentbystander wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 9:24 pm Tree,
The Paleo-Arab peasant people could have had their own country. Could have being the operative word. These illiterate peasant people, they were given billions of dollars from the global community. Billions. Moreover, they were given the money with NO CONDITIONS upon how such money was to be spent. No global committee stood in judgment of their actions. And so, these fucking peasant people, they gave that money to Hamas to murder Jews.
What the fuck do you want to do with these people? You decide, what do you do with them? Do you ignore, tolerate, and "understand" your neighbor if he keeps flinging dog poop into your pool and then smiles at you with an ignorant, "wasn't me" look? Is that what you do? Because, your comments here are immature.
This is a thinking man's forum. You have tiktok brain and think that you can have people "cancelled" with your comments. That is not going to happen here. And if you don't want people to keep tormenting you, you need to start thinking about what you are posting. If you can't think deeply, this is probably not the place for you.
And if you respond, do not say "brah." I am not a middle schooler.
In any event, the world had to get the millions of Jews that were still left alive, out. Or at least, we had to give them the option of where to go if they didn't want to stay in Europe. Many came here to the States, some went to South America (Argentina where they still speak German, decades later) and quite a few (the not so lucky ones) started having sex with their Soviet liberators and made their way to Russia. The ones who figured they were on their own, they found a militarized Kibbutz somewhere in Israel.
Every nation on the Earth bought in on that, all of them EXCEPT the Islamic ones. Their votes were, out-voted so to speak. Fuck 'em aTm. This country of Israel is about as big as the state of New Jersey with not a drop of oil in it. Saudia Arabia is fucking gigantic (1.25 times larger than Alaska) and sits on an infinite ocean of oil. Plenty of room there. Plenty of room still but Saudi wont take the Paleo-Arabs.
And what are these Paleo-Arabs anyway? ATm, you mentioned World War I. In World War I, the land that was then "Palestine" (under the protection of the British Empire) had no one on it with the exception of a bunch of useless gypsies and horse thieves. Oh, and the British. They were there. With rifles. Or, with a hotel on the Mediterranean beach. Or both. They were there in 1948 trying the manage the empire's "decline" (for lack of a better word.) This was all pretty well documented with Otto Preminger's Zionistic epic, Exodus.
A black listed communist wrongfully incarcerated by McCarthy by the name of Dalton Trumbo wrote the screen play I might add.
There were no Palestinians. There never were any Palestinians. These peasants were stateless. They had no central government. They had no rule of law. They were illiterate. They were Muslims who didn't even know who Mohammed was (they still don't.) Their 13 year old daughters were pregnant and (well) that is just the way they lived. And they lived like gypsies and horse thieves, lived. They lived as parasites off the well being and fruitful labors, of others. Then the Jews arrived and started to use the land to grow oranges the size of basketballs. NOW, we have Palestinians.
