@brabon1 In 1948, 800,000 Palestinians were driven out of their homeland. There was no real "war" as you assert because the indigenous population didn't have anywhere near the military capabilities of the Zionist forces. That's why approaching one million people fled. For you to bemoan the state of anyone's education system as you rewrite history is ridiculous.
@nigelparry Sikhs and Hindus were driven out of their homeland in order to make way for the Islamic State of Pakistan. Almost a million Jews were driven out of their homeland from Islamic countries. All this happened at just about the same time as the creation of Israel. Do you concern yourself with those refugees or only the refugees from Israel? Is their plight not the same as the Arab's in Israel? Do you care as much about the Sudanese massacre? Now who did you say was being ridiculous?
@msmcis History is full of examples of colonial dispossession. What's your point? My point was to challenge @brabon1's false historical assertion that 1948 was a "war". It clearly was not a war. Try and enter an argument by actually addressing the point being made. What you did was run in to hysterically shout: "Other bad things have happened". So what? How should that alter my reply? Add in Native Americans and the Holocaust if you want. It wouldn't change my reply to @brabon1's distortion.
@nigelparry There was a war waged on Israel in 1948! Six Arab countries attacked immediately after the creation of Israel. Those six countries were Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon and Libya.
Thank you Nigel for bringing more awareness to the marketing reasons for this artistic endeavor. We all need to learn to live with respect for each other and this includes Israeli's stopping the horrendous apartheid against the Palestinians and the siege of Gaza.
Of course he is going to deny it, how else do you expect him and his ilk to sleep at night. I bet if you ask him about the Palestinians of today (not just those of 48) he will most likely deny their existence as well. But dare question the extent of the holocaust and he will fly off the handle because denying this event is forbidden yet denying a whole people's existence is of course OK for parasitic Zionism.
what happened in 1948? a war happened
the arabs lost
the state of our educational system is woefully lacking

Before you know it, America will withdraw from Iraq and millions of Iraqis will promptly kill each other.
Then I will replay this video and possibly die laughing.
