1948 is a stupid start date for understanding this problem. The Israeli state was promised by the British in 1917, years before the British took over the region of Palestine. Deal with it. Before the founding of Mandatory Palestine of 1920 (which only existed as a piecemeal state the British took over after the Ottoman collapse), Britain already had plans for Israel.
History is a wee bit deeper than you might think it seems. Balfour Declaration is rather significant to the discussion, and your avoidance of the subject is quite telling. The plans for Israeli settlement were laid out nearly three decades before 1948.
You seem not to be able to discuss without being rude, it seems.
It is not a “stupid start date” is the start date that Israel became Israel and stole the land from the Palestinian people.
Since you are not able to discuss with manners, I refuse to explain anything further.
If anyone else wants to pick up the discussing from here with me on a nice manner, I’ll give counter arguments to this persons claim.
So you really don’t know what the Balfour Declaration was, who the Ottomans were, the end of WW1 or any of that?
Fine, whatever. Figure it out yourself.
Just read my last sentence/ paragraph. That’s all I have to say. After this I will not comment to you anymore.
I stand by what I said before.
