Was this on Oct 7th, you might need to refer to your
Israel has been occupying Palestine long before Oct 7th.
As an occupying force , Israel can't claim the right to self defence, anymore than Hitler could when he invaded Poland.
Pre Zionist Palestine was a small impoverished country.
As far as I know, it was never considered a threat to its neighbours or the rest of the world.
As far as I know it the mass illegal immigration that tipped the region into chaos.
The UN in its wisdom did a 'Neville Chamberlain ' and offered the representatives of the terrorists who were holding the region hostage , a large chunk of the indigenous peoples land in return for a peace agreement.
The rest is history, as they say.
You probably won't agree with my analysis, which is ok.
I grew up in a community where everyone believed that the Jews are the chosen people and the Palestinians are modern day Philistines.
The other day, our local butcher called Terence,a normally cheerful old chap who has won awards for his sausages, put his hand on my wife's arm and said , Lebanon has attacked Israel, we are in the end times, pray for Israel, he then walked away looking quite worried.
I was relieved when he walked off, I didn't want to get into a debate about Israel with him as my wife and i really like his sausages and I know he would probably ban me from his shop.
Terence is typical of the local community, brainwashed from birth and brought up on diet of Sunday school and Hollywood movies like the Greatest story ever told, Exodus and Schindlers list.
