re: Why Does This Board Support Israel/Zionism?

The British had and have absolutely no right to dole out possession of anything that isn't in Britain.

You forgot to mention the repeated declarations of Wilson and others that a Jewish state would not be possible without DISPOSSESSING the inhabitants of that region, which Ben-Gurion himself admitted.

Whether or not they had an official country according to western law is meaningless. People were driven from their homes and in many cases, wiped out. Go back and check the "miraculous clearing of the land" quote. That's the attitude, then and now. To deny it is either a display of ignorance or a lie. You seem reasonably intelligent, so I'll go with the latter.

England was incredibly bad at doling out land. This can be seen in a lot of countries like Iraq where you have 3 distinct sect of people lumped into one country. Who's land was it to give away f not England? And why not give some the Jews if there was a high density Jewish area? Te Palestinians no matter how long they lived there had never had any real control of the land. They moved there albeit sooner than the Jews by a large margin but there were Jewish and Arab areas.

Israel created the rocket attacks. Like I said, the people that kidnapped the Israeli teens were not Hamas. It was a lone cell according to Micky Rosenfeld.

In a Friday interview with the state-run BBC, Israeli Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld ruled out any links between the men responsible for the murdering of the three teenagers and Hamas, saying they are part of a “lone cell.” Israeli forces killed several Palestinians and arrested hundreds of others, including Hamas members and lawmakers, as part of the search for the three settlers, whom Israel claimed went missing in the West Bank on June 12. Hamas had denied involvement in the alleged disappearance of the teens. On June 30, Israel confirmed that the three Israeli settlers were dead and their bodies were buried in a field near the village of Halhul north of the city of al-Khalil (Hebron) in the West Bank. A day after the funeral of the three teenagers, Israeli settlers abducted and burned alive 17-year-old Palestinian Mohamed Abu Khdeir in the West Bank in retaliation for the incident. One of the main reasons that Israel launched its new war on Gaza was the regime’s accusations against Hamas over the kidnapping issue. The Palestinian death toll has reached 900 from more than two weeks of Israeli strikes. Around 5,700 Palestinians have also been injured in the onslaught. Israeli warplanes have been carrying out incessant airstrikes against the blockaded Gaza Strip since July 8. On July 17, thousands of Israeli soldiers launched a ground incursion into the densely-populated strip.

BEIRUT: The Israeli Police Foreign Press Spokesman, Micky Rosenfeld, appears to have falsified the Israeli government’s claim that Hamas was responsible for the killing of three Israeli settler teens in June, by saying responsibility lies with a lone cell that operated without the complicity of Hamas’ leadership. The kidnapping and subsequent killing of three Israeli settler teens last month is considered to be a flashpoint for the escalated violence in Gaza -- that as of day 19 of the conflict has left 926 Palestinians, mostly civilians, dead. At the time Israeli authorities placed the blame squarely on Hamas, with Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu saying "They were kidnapped and murdered in cold blood by animals in human form. Hamas is responsible and Hamas will pay." Friday however, there appeared to be break in the official line when BBC journalist Jon Donnison tweeted a series of statements he attributed to the Israeli Police Foreign Press Spokesman, Micky Rosenfeld. “Israeli police MickeyRosenfeld tells me men who killed 3 Israeli teens def[initely] lone cell, Hamas affiliated but not operating under leadership1/2.” “Seems to contradict the line from Netanyahu government. 2/2” The journalist then goes on to tweet a further statement from Rosenfeld which, given that Israeli authorities used Hamas’ culpability as a pretext for its crackdown of the West Bank that saw hundreds of Palestinians arrested and several killed, could cast serious doubts on the Israeli government’s justifications. “Israeli police spokes Mickey Rosenfeld also said if kidnapping had been ordered by Hamas leadership, they'd have known about it in advance.”

The underpinnings of the Israeli justification for its assault are completely gone. Israel has an insurmountable credibility problem at this point. But so does the West, with its baying pro-Israel media and cowed or complicit politicians. Hamas, not even consulted on an earlier ceasefire proposal put together by Israel and Egypt, had submitted its own opening position for a ten-year ceasefire, but it was almost completely ignored by the media and Western governments. Keep ignoring the facts Sammy. You and the other pro Israeli sheep are supporting a tyranny that has now claimed almost 1000 lives for unfounded reasons and Netanyahu's twisted beliefs.

Comparing Israel to the Nazis if a great tactic because of Israel origins but it simply doesn't hold up to any real analytical comparison. Of Israel were like the Nazis there wouldn't be any Palestinians right now.

I was comparing the current state of Israel to the Gestapo police state in the early 1930s. Notice I didn't mention anything about a holocaust. If Israel was as powerful, they would exterminate the Palestinians without a doubt. Compare the Israeli government to what you want. The regime is tyrannical, radical, racist, and artificial.

Seen a lotta Zionist terrorist attacks around the world , have ya?

Yes, actually I have.

Israel created Hamas as they have admitted. Now they are using Hamas as an excuse to bomb the living hell out of Gaza with a 80% civilian death rate.

That means each Hamas member shot must have had 4 kids tied to him, not sure how they would even run.

If Israel stopped illegally occupying people and if it didn't create Hamas it would not need weapons.

But with the lies again trying to prove a point with them.


You as are a racist. Plain and simple. Israel has a right to defend itself. If you don't like that.... then go lead the call for hamas to stop and for the Palestinian people to elect you because you would lay down arms
