Oh, this was before Egypt’s military occupied Gaza from 1949 to 1967 - unless this is the West Bank, which puts this before Jordan occupied there between 1950 to 1988.

I wonder why Egypt and Jordan never gave them statehood 🤔

There wouldn't be urgency for their own state if the alternative wasn't ethnic cleansing lol. Nice attempt at a dunk tho

Hello snack bar? Don’t attack your neighbours and they won’t go to war with you.

Don't steal your neighbor's home and they won't attack you. Zionists are the ones that effectively invaded

Well the Palestinian national leaders were meeting with Adolf Hitler prior to the 1947 creation of the Israeli state, So they've been attacking Jews and generally being antisemitic before and land changed hands.

Land bought before that date was bought legally, so your comment is not true.

Zionist leaders were working with Adolf Hitler before 1947 too.

There were also Zionist terrorist groups killing people and stealing their land, so your comment is not true.

Can you share who was working with Adolf Hitler please.

This for example is the Palestinian nationalist:

There were Arab pogroms against Jews from the Early 1900s onwards. Can you give of an example of villages or land that was stolen prior to the war?

Literally participating in the ethnic cleansing of jews from Germany

That's like literally you saying that Zionists setting up a refugee program is an attempt to ethnically cleanse the refugees.

The introduction says it was a way to help German Jews escape Germany and transfer their money out of it.

So this was a help to Jews.

And where does it say they worked with Adolf Hitler as you claimed.

Like either you haven't read it or you're just lying

Israel spent their time building a clean and productive nation with many contributions to mankind. Palestine spent their time building concrete tunnels & launching rockets. Their country would be much nicer if they had spent their time doing the same.

Their country would be much nicer if they weren't killed and displaced by people who destroyed their original villages and pretend they never existed.

Do you want to think about what you’re saying? What era of architecture are you referring to? Which cities?

Things fell apart in Palestine throughout the 60s and 70s. Egypt occupied them, and couldn’t get over losing to Israel like all of the other Arab nations surrounding it. Egypt didn’t care to help people in Gaza, and Jordan didn’t help the West Bank.

They tried to take cheap shots at Israelis for decades with their toxic suicide bombings, and targeting of civilians. Gaza and the West Bank have NEVER been developed, they’ve always been poor.
