The Uk gave the land to Israel following a war with Jewish terrorists.
People like Golda Meyer, Begin were all terrorists(freedomfighters).

Again, you're confusing terrorists with rebels.

Rebels fight for territory. Terrorists kill indiscriminately.


The jews in 1948 were indiscriminate killers.


That's a BS myth -- they were most definitely NOT indiscriminante.

Boy, I really hate to step into this thread, but there were
incidents of what would be called "terrorism" today by the jewish
factions in pre-Israeli palestine. The bombing of the King David
Hotel in 1946 comes to mind.

Better get some more info because that's (KD Hotel) one of the worst myths.
British were warned repeatedly and well in advance and arrogantly ignored
all the warnings.

No Tom, it's not a myth. The bombing actually took place and it was
done by a faction of the pro-jewish movement (IIRC, the Irgun). The
bombers admitted their participation publicly.

Using your logic, an action is not a terrorist action if you call
and warn someone in advance.

That's not what I said.

I would say that's a fair estimate.

The jews in 1948 were indiscriminate killers. But by your definition the
Palestinians are rebels too and what they are doing is legitimate,

fighting
for their native soil.


I, for one, do not blame the Palestinians for fighting for their land.

However, they have lost the moral high ground with their moronic, murderous,
suicidal tactics. Where once we saw rebels, all we see now are terrorists.

Damn shame, too. They very nearly had world opinion on their side.

(Same thing happened to the IRA, by the way. Had they held strictly to
fighting the British, they might have pulled it off. Instead, they started
blowing up innocent civilians, and lost public opinion worldwide.)

They abandoned their land.

Unfortunately the Palestinians don't have any land. Never did. Israel
did not kick the Palestinians out of present day Israel.

Quite right. The Jews forced no Arabs off their land. Many Arabs, those
that are referred to as Palestinians, abandoned their land at the behest of
their fellow Arabs in Jordan, Syria, etc. They were to leave while the Arab
states drove the Jews into the sea, then the Arabs would return and have all
of the land. Israel would not exist. But the Arabs lost the war, and those
that had abandoned their land within the new state of Israel were now
homeless. The Arabs that didn't abandon their land are now citizens of
Israel. They vote, hold seats in the Knesset, and have the highest standard
of living among any Arabs in the world. Other than the relative few that
control large quantities of oil, of course.

Most Palestinians came from Jordon...when they were kicked out.
