Lies about Jewish history and Israel

Yes, the entire history of the formation of Israel is distorted by lies. The most important fact that everyone needs to get back to is that a significant majority of Israelis fit into on of three categories: Arab Jews, the children of Arab Jews, or the grandchildren of Arab Jews. In other words, a significant majority of Jews living in Israel are people who would be there whether or not Israel was created.

In fact, the original League of Nations mandate and the Balfour declaration came about specifically to deal with the inhuman treatment of Jews by Arab leaders, in Arab lands. Jews were treated as little more than animals or slaves. We must also remember that the LoN mebers were not Jew-loving countries. They were, for the most part, mildly anti-semitic. However, the mistreatment of Jews by Arabs was so extreme the even these borderline anti-semites saw the need to intervene and do something about the problem.

It is high time for everybody to go back to the history books and relearn the history of the period from 1880 to 1930. All of the answers are there, that is why people are not being taught about that era.
