it’s important to remember that 1947 was not the start of the conflict. There were massacres as early as 1920 and it was the WWI decisions that really got the ball rolling. Originally the British were just trying to preoccupy the Ottoman Empire with the Arab territories so they wouldn’t be so involved in the European theatre.

This is the history that is conveniently forgotten. Even farther back is the history of the Palestine Mandate. Wikipedia has a good explanation under “History of Jordan”.

And the phrase “Never again!” apparently doesn’t mean “never” “never”. It was only 80 years ago folks. 80 ain’t much time.

I am not sure if ‘partition’ has worked anywhere ... ever. Does anyone know the score on that one? (I'm thinking of Germany (with the wall), Korea, Ireland, Pakistan, etc.). Has it ever been a good solution?
