When you start talking about “mandates” (mandated territories), you are insulting all Arabs with what the Europeans declared their borders should be - at the point of a gun!

In all of that, you obviously still can’t see the invasion of millions of Russian + European Jews. Basically the only “semites” there are the remaining Arab Palestinians…...

I am well aware of the tragedy playing out on both sides of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, thank you very much. Neither side has clean hands, the lion’s share of the blame, however, falls upon the leadership of the Palestinians. One side wants to be left alone in peace. The other side wants to exterminate the first side. Somehow this is twisted to make the side advocating genocide as the victims in the world press and in the minds of the gullible. What I found most interesting was the map here:

It’s the first one in the slideshow, titled “Robbery”. It’s wildly inaccurate and misleading. A much fairer picture can be seen if you compare the area of the original Palestinian Mandate ( http://www.jafi.org.il/education/100/maps/IMAGES/MANDATE.GIF) with the original UN partition proposal ( http://www.jafi.org.il/education/100/maps/IMAGES/PART.JPG) which offered the Palestinians over 90% of the territory. They rejected that in favor of attempted genocide and they weren’t tough enough to pull it off. The armistice agreed upon left Palestinians in control of 90% of the original mandate, ( http://www.jafi.org.il/education/100/maps/IMAGES/ARM.JPG) yet the claim persists that Israel is attempting to “steal our lands”. Poppycock. Looking at the big picture pretty much destroyes any “Wah! They’re stealing our land!” claim that Palestinians try to make.

Those are not protesters, those are organized crimes, riots, and terrorists. They are worse than the riots in New Orleans after Katrina. They are even worse than Palestine bombs Israel, and suicide bomber in Iraq.  The Chinese government has spend millions of dollars to improve the life quality in Tibet. And Tibet longs to China for hundreds of years.
