Israel used Terrorist tactics to gain Independence

From Rise to Globalism, by Stephen Ambrose:

"Britain had a mandate to govern Palestine.  Anxious to placate the Arabs, because of their large oil interests, the British tried to prevent further Jewish immigration into Palestine, while the Jews tried to drive the British out through terroristic tactics...Exhausted, the British turned the problem over to the United Nations, where the Soviets and the Americans banded together to force a solution on the Arabs.  That solution was the partition of Palestine to create a Jewish state...On May 14, 1948, Israel proclaimed its independence.  The US was the first country to recognize the new state, Russia a close second."

Isn't it ironic that the Israeli's got their own state by terrorism.  This also shows the British opposition to an Israeli state.  Now the Israeli's are suprised when the Palestinians use terrorism to try and get their land back.

Don Seer:
so why do israeli's think they have a claim?

i know theres more history to this than meets the eye - plus religion thrown into the mix  ::)

King Tech Quadafi:
I agree Jay, not much attention has been given to the guerillaz and terrorists Israelis who launched aggression against British and Arab inhabitants

and speaking of this "Israeli claim", i got a  question.
Name one country or nationality that got a piece of land cuz their holy book says so. The right wing Bible thumpers and its zionist allies kill me for real, they have a claim to the land because their Bible says so...lol
Does anyone not see the ridicolousness of that?

Jay ay Beee:
It's stupid, cause how far back do you go?  If you let Israel steal land because the bible says so, why aren't the Native Americans allowed to have the USA back?

I agree with u. "we were first" is in my oppinion much more of a reason than "our holy book says it's ours", even though u don't have a very religious person saying this here. But all peoples in the world got their religions and the Israeli are the only ones claiming land because of that. On the other hand many jews escaped in WWII and they had the hell of a good reason for doing so...and that does make the situation in the middle east extremly complicated with palestinians who have been livin there for a long time and jews who might have had to go there so they'd stay alive...it's difficult to find a solution but what Sharon is doing is definitely more than wrong
