(42,641 posts)Do you consider the Balfour Declaration to be the work of a European politician?
Do you consider the Sykes-Picot Agreement to be the work of European politicians?
Do you consider England and France to be among the group of European countries that practiced and benefitted greatly from colonialism?
Do you consider that European colonial powers SHOULD have had the legal right to take away land that was lived on and occupied for thousands of years and decide to create a homeland for a people that had been persecuted and killed by those same European colonialists?
Have you seen the many maps that graphically show how the Palestinian territory that is controlled by the Israelis has grown from 1948 to the present?
Have you read any stories about continuing Israeli theft of Palestinian land?
