The thing is no-one had any right to give Palestine to anyone.

Likewise, did anyone have the right to give Australia to the British, at the expense of the existing Indigenous population?

They didn't, but in our case, we are doing or best to right the wrongs of the past and do the best that we can for our indigenous citizens. That is more than can be said for the Zionist government in Israel.

Ahhh the old furphy designed to shut us all up.

No-one gave Australia to anyone.

No-one existed here once. We are all immigrants. Some arrived much earlier than others and have had much of their traditional lands taken, as had been the way of the world for eons.

Civilised modern western societies, apart from Israel, have now recognised that practice as wrong and unfair.

We have been or are addressing that issue.

Israel is pursuing the polices of pre-civilised essentially unenlightened, barbaric and unjust societies, simply because of the dictates of the religion of a majority of Israeli's.

This highly emotional one sided essay from ultra-apologist Adam Keller', is hugely speculative. The sad news about prisoner X's demise highlights the black art of Mossad Intel services. They do not suffer shoddy intelligence, lest of all agents that spill the beans on their Operatives !

Whether it is viewed in Australia as the supreme act of betrayal by one of it's own citizens, depends rightly on those who profess dual citizenship. One cannot serve two masters. That he involved others, not only complicates his allegiance to his Country of birth,it apprehensively reflects on DFAT, and Minister Carr for his obtrusive naivety. It's not the first time an Australian is jailed in a Foreign Country e.g. the Bali Nine,Corby and others on death row, etc.

Israel has always defended it's borders with ruthlessness and complete disregard for the United Nations, Unites States, United Arab Republic, etc. Backs against the wall, it is clinging on for it's very survival.

It is fought two major Wars, and hundreds of skirmishes, from enemies bent on their destruction and complete annihilation. In this particular equation, it is a case of double jeopardy. People have already formed an opinion, and view the prisoner's incarceration and ultimate demise with apprehension.

Was it: " a murder, most foul..deed " or something more sinister ?

WHICH ?

In this post and the comments following from it, we speak of the detention of the Palestinian Samer Al Issawi, the death of the Australia/Israeli Ben Zygier, a bomb in Argentina, an assassination in the Emirate of Dubai and the reservations of Lord Edwin Montagu concerning the Balfour Declaration.
So far no mention of the possibility that a bomb in Bulgaria was a false flag operation involving Israeli agents and not Iran and Herzbollah as some would have us believe.
It seems there is very little coming out of that part of the world that can be taken at face value.
