Hey, maybe Hamas can just claim it was trying to get Israeli war criminals when their suicide bombers missed. Then everything would be perfectly okay.

We were doing so well, ignoring this whole issue. Now we get yet another useless Palestine/Israel thread....
In the end, lost of Palestinians will die, far fewer Israelis, and nothing will have changed significantly.

I hadn't thought the Brits were involved in any taking from Muslims and giving to Zionists.
In fact they tried to put breaks on Zionist activity during the mandate.(\__/)

The Balfour Declaration explicitly stated the Great Britain would work towards the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine, and definately gave Jews the idea that Great Britain was going to take control of Palestine for the cause of Zionism.Originally posted by notyoueither

It was a pretty vague phrase, and many Jews assumed they could do something like buy out the land of the existing people in the area and get them to move. It also didn't clearly state that Great Britain would still care about this detail once a Jewish homeland was created. As of 1917 Zionists were mostly looking at simply settling in Palestine in large enough numbers to make a Jewish state of some sort potentially viable.Originally posted by notyoueither
