BBC: The Birth of Israel

"Israel declared independence on 14 May 1948 and neighboring Arab states attacked the next day. Since then, Israel has fought a series of wars with neighboring Arab states and in consequence, Israel controls territories beyond those delineated in the 1949 Armistice Agreements. Some international borders remain in dispute ..." This BBC program from 2008 examines and explains the complicated situation.

Israel was heavily supported by the USA, which gave it that military edge. Israel was well prepared for the war before it even started.

I only feel sorry for civilians from both sides who have suffered due to greedy political agendas. Both sides are idiots.

The israel`s have forced the Christian and Muslim Palestinians into Getto`s and are lobbing all kinks of shit at them, i.e. Phosperous, Nerve Gas etc. Slow Genocide. Real, not a fake like 1918 or 1945. We are Goyim to them. Inferior Soulless cattle. We`re next. Look up uss Liberty 1978, The Moneylenders, Theinfounderground.com. iamthewitness.com

"what they did to the palestinians is what Hitler try to do to them."

You fuckheads are clueless beyond belief. Big surprise since they don`t even bother to teach the history of this conflict in your pitiful public schools. Of course, they don`t teach you about WWII either...so it`s no surprise you try to make such asinine comparisons.

Some day you`ll grow up and wonder how you could ever have been so fucking ignorant.

The Americans saved the jews from the nazi`s? that would have to be american version of how history unfolded, not true history.
Nothing against Jews or Americans, just you guys have your own version of history and its not the same as the rest of the world, sadly you guys have been deluded.
