I pray every day for mercy for the Palestinian People. For 60 years now they've been slaughtered
in the name of God, because the zionists made the Jewish people to think that they have
a real estate deal with God. The Palestinians have their homes destroyed, their lands
stolen, they have no water to drink(on the other side of the walls Jewish are playing
in swimming pools) their children cannot go to school, their women are being killed. Only
God in His Mighty can stop this massacre. It,s ungodly what's happening in Gaza.
And I also pray that more people like you, will stand up. King Solomon wrote in the book of
Proverbs 31:9 "Open your mouth, judge righteously, And defend the rights of the afflicted and needy."

1881 - Beginning of mass migrations of Jews to Palestine, at that time part of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Most of the first Jews come from Russia, fleeing pogroms and harsh discrimination. They join a small and politically inactive Jewish population already in Palestine.
1914 - World War I begins. The Ottoman Turks ally with Germany and Austria-Hungary against Britain, France, and Russia.
1916 - Arab nationalists, backed by the British, revolt against Ottoman rule in Palestine. The British suggest they'll recognize an independent Arab state if the revolt succeeds. Yet at the
same time, Britain signs a secret agreement with France to carve the region into colonial zones of influence.
1917 - Britain's foreign minister, Arthur Balfour, tells leading British Zionist Lord Lionel Rothschild that, "His Majesty's Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object." Zionists hail the Balfour Declaration as a crucial step forward. "Yet the statement also says that "nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine."
League of Nations Mandate
1922 - The League of Nations, a precursor to the United Nations, confirms Britain's mandate over Palestine, charging Britain with the establishment of a "Jewish national home," "the development of self-governing institutions," and the facilitation of Jewish immigration, "while ensuring that the rights and position of other sectors of the population are not prejudiced." A British census shows that Jews account for 11 percent of Palestine's 750,000 inhabitants.
1933 - Hitler comes to power in Germany. Jewish immigration increases. By 1936, almost 400,000 Jews live in Palestine, about 30 percent of the population.
1942 - A Zionist conference in New York garners increasing U.S. support for a "Jewish
commonwealth" in Palestine and unrestricted Jewish immigration to it.
1944 - Radical Zionists declare war on British authorities in Palestine and assassinate a British minister in Cairo.
1945 - World War II ends. Nazi death camps liberated. U.S. President Harry Truman urges Britain to accept 100,000 Jewish Holocaust survivors into Palestine. Arab nationalists protest that solving the problem of the Holocaust survivors should not come at the expense of Palestinian Arabs.
1947 - Britain turns its mandate in Palestine over to the newly formed United Nations, which votes in favor of partitioning the region into two independent states: one Jewish and one Arab,
with Jerusalem under international control. Zionists accept the partition, which grants them 56 percent of Palestine, including fertile coastal regions. Arab nationalists reject the authority of the UN to partition a country against the wishes of a majority of its inhabitants. Civil war between the roughly 678,000 Jews and 1,269,000 Arabs in Palestine begins. Soon, Zionists control most of the territory allocated to them under the U.N. plan.
1948 - But after arms from Czechoslovakia reach Israel, the Jewish state establishes military superiority and conquers territory beyond that of the UN partition, including the western part of
Jerusalem.
The Palestinian state envisioned by the U.N. partition plan never comes to be. As a result of the conflict, more than 700,000 Palestinian Arabs flee or are expelled from their homes. Israel
refuses to permit these refugees to return to their homes inside the new Israeli borders.
My comment: if in 1922 the jewish population was 11%,
1936 it was 30%, how is it possible that you say, and I quote:"Firstly, while there were people there, they weren’t “a people” - Arabs at the time identified with the Arab people as a whole,"
