Very playground of you.
So your contention is that Israel in 1948 Israel simultaneously invaded five neighboring nations?
No, wait a minute. It was Israel that was simultaneously invaded by five neighboring nations.
And after the “Thornton affair” the USA declared war on Mexico. A war that was never even a contest, and a war which furthered President Polk's aim of securing the Southwest as US territory.
Israelis declared their political independence when the British mandate expired. At that point they were invaded by five neighboring nations. They won the war and their independence.
Texans declared their political independence from Mexico. There was conflict between Mexico and Texas. Texas won the war and their independence. Later they joined the USA, conflict was provoked and the USA declared war against a nation that couldn't even beat Texas. We won the war and much of the Southwest right down to the Rio Grand.
You win wars, you win your Independence.
But for some reason it is “stealing” when Israel does it. Why is that?
Sorry I missed your post. On Friday night, Saturday and Saturday night I am a DJ in the FReeper Canteen and get around 500 posts per weekend that usually start around 8 PM my time on Friday night.
Now.....
“But for some reason it is stealing when Israel does it. Why is that?”
Because the “territory” of Texas was already a bonafied “territory” with a name.
There simply was no “Israel”. It was created by Jews from land that was not previously “Israel”.
As I said in the previous post, if you cannot see the difference then I truly empathize with you. :-)
