On May 15 next year, Palestinians will commemorate 62 years of Israeli apartheid and racism including continued ethnic cleansing and decades of military occupation. The central Zionist dilemma was they wanted to create a predominantly Jewish state in an area which was overwhelmingly not Jewish in 1906 there were 700,000 Arabs, 55,000 Jews, and even of those 55,000 Jews, only a handful were Zionists.

How do you create a Jewish state in area which is overwhelmingly not Jewish?

Answer: Terrorism.

[TheCountBernadotte1]

Isaac Herzog’s father was Chaim Herzog, born Clifton Park Avenue in Belfast. In 1935 he emigrated to Palestine, and in 1936-39 he served in the Jewish paramilitary group, Haganah as branch chief at the time of the Deir Yassin massacre and other atrocities. Like father like son… At last after years of careful genetic selection; behold The Uber Zionist.

God what awful people

why transfer jews is ok. but transfer arabs is wrong?

the 2 state solution requires transfer of jews from the arab area, and transfer of arabs from the jewish erea. this is the only way for peace

@Nyackarch Thats sad but so true. ; 0 )

[Nyackarch]

No partition, no 2-state solution. This is not a solution, this is the problem.

Legally and historically, all of Israel belongs to Israel.

So nieve, we never learn from history. We are our own worst enemy.

[Nyackarch]

It is the Labor Party's fault that we are in this shit.

[DofaDofah]

I spew historical TRUTH. U don't like it too bad. Don't worry as your ilk would say: "Ignorance is bliss". I know, like in a nut shell u ignoramus pagan.

[templarkc]

stop spewing propoganda

[DofaDofah]

No 2-State Solution. Its a false peace prospect. Will cause more death and Terror. The land was never Palestinian.

Since the Jewish conquest in 1272 B.C.E. the Jews have had dominion over the land for one thousand years with a continuous presence in the land for the past 3,300 years.

Nationhood & Jerusalem - Israel became a nation in 1312 B.C.E., two thousand years before the rise of Islam.

For over 3,300 years, Jerusalem has been the Jewish capital.
