Why there is no 'Israeli-Palestinian conflict' -- and what is it, actually?

That ship sailed

In 48 Arabs including a lot of Christian were displaced

I know some very well

And Israelis I know acknowledge this too

It’s war and you lose

Problem is in 67 Israel inherited them

[wardaddy]

That last sentence is a money shot

Often ignored here in favor of sound and fury

You’ll likely now be called Jew hater no matter how much you support Israel

For Dispies it’s never enough trust me

[bert]

What is it exactly?

Hamascide

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

It is my understanding that Jews were only able to acquire prior to the end of the Mandate about 20% of the higher quality land.

You do know how to read don't you?

A lot of that land was personally owned by Jews who bought it from the Ottomans who owned it in the 1800s

That was BEFORE the British ran the place.

As a conservative, I value fairness, honesty and facts.P> Hon, you lied outright about what I said while quoting it.

No, little dim, you don't.

[Uncle Miltie]

Given the opportunity in #16 to at least denounce the original middle eastern dispossession of the Jews by the totalitarian death cult, your silence positively screams.

[Uncle Miltie]

Speaking of “confiscation or other theft”, are you prepared to condemn and require the return of confiscated lands by the invader colonialist settler arabs of the indigenous Jewish and Christian inhabitants of the Levant?

Or are you a one-way pro-baby-baker?

Denying that the other side exists doesn’t make the conflict go away.

“In 48 Arabs including a lot of Christian were displaced”

Sirhan Sirhan’s family being one. People often assume that he’s Muslim but he’s an Arab Christian.

They can be just as sullen as the Muslim variety, Orange County having a growing population of both. The Wealth of Diversity courtesy of the uniparty. And somehow people wonder why California votes the way that it does.

I looked up the KGB’s Operation SIG, & found this:

So, pro-Palestiners are Russia collusionists.

I Mississippi we got the early ones

Christian Arabs

Always referred to as Lebanese or Syrian

Saik

Daud anglicized to David

Malouf obviously

Simon or Shamoun

Louis anglicized from Elias

Thomas anglicized from its Aramaic origin

I knew quite a few and they settled in the delta post bellum as merchants though a few had filtered in prior to The War

They are fully assimilated and mostly catholic

The women are usually pretty like the David twins I knew in west Jax or a Louis girl I knew who’s daddy was a doc she was adorable and a good friend

A KD ole miss

I liked them in general

Duck hunted with Maloufs

I grew up with Iupes and simons in large families in my hood

Greeks were similar

And Italians in Dixie too

Merchants esp food and bev and haberdashery

Chinese also did well in the delta but didn’t assimilate like the whites so much

Anyhow

We just viewed them as peers usually more olive

Mom called them Syrians or Lebanese and rumor had it her Thomas family may have had one

They were swarthy but it Doesn’t show on my sons ancestry com

English
Irish
Scots
Ulster scots

A bit of danelaw and French

In other words typical FFV southern white

A bit out of my knowledge scope, dear friend.

And I've ONLY known one person ( went to grammar school with her ) who was of Lebanese ancestry, when I was a child. She and her family were Catholics. Since she was my age and born here, her family must have been in America a rather long time. I think that her parents were also born here, as well. But how far back that goes, I am unaware.
