Who the hell is the enemy here?
A nation who believes that they have a 2000 year old title to a land called Palestine up to the late 1940's or a group of people given the nation by a frustrated British overseer in essence and renamed Israel?
Who do and should we side with?
Up to 1923, Palestine, just plain old Palestine, was the 2000 year old home of Palestinians, not Jews, not Arabs, not Christians, just plain old Palestiniansof all ilks.
Then in 1923, under the directive of the Laegue of Nations, Palestine was put under the protectorate powers(Palestine Mandate) of Great Britian to set up a responsible government in a given territory.
It was clearly understood that the British would help the Jews set up a national home in Palestine afer a British promise in 1917 that this wouls happen.
It all started from this point and up to 1945 then comes the "Zionists"(Jews supporting colonization of Paletsine) versus "The Arab League"(Arab nation backed group to regain their ancestral homeland Palestine).
One reason "The Palestine Question" is such a difficult one is that neither Great Britain or The Ubited States is willing to make enemies of "The Arab League" nations is the vast oil deposits in Iraq, Saudi Arabia and other Middle East nations of which the U.S. and Britain are vitally interested in.....Excerpted from The Book Of Knowledge Annual 1947
And it continues today and I still ask: Who the hell is the enemy here and which side should America be loyal to?
