Israel offers Trump opportunity for Republican-Democrat reconciliation : Comments

By David Singer, published 3/4/2017

Bitter partisan Democrat-Republican battlelines – fuelled by a hostile media following Trump's unanticipated electoral victory - increasingly threaten to undermine Trump's election promises.

Part 1:

Yet another three posts of arrant nonsense and utter garbage.

Some examples:

1."Either the diaspora were not practicing their religion or Judaism did not promote Zionism.

The evidence supports the latter."

You wouldn't have the faintest idea. Jews for centuries have read the Old Testament every Saturday and on every Monday and Thursday and on Holydays year in and year out - besides praying for the redemption of the Jews in Jerusalem three times a day.

2. "Presenting the Torah as historical fact to support Zionist claims cannot be left unchallenged."

You insult and offend all believers - Jews, Christians and Moslems with this throwaway line.

Add Christian-hater and Moslem-hater to your Jew-hater title.

3. "This discussion is primarily about Palestine not Jordan, or Transjordan. The Peel Commission population figures above refer to Palestine as we know it. Clearly the Peel Commission's “first partition” was referring to that same Palestine."

No it isn't. Read article 25 of the Mandate. Transjordan was part of the Mandate for Palestine and remained so until it became independent in 1946.

That is why the Peel Commission recommended:
"two sovereign independent States would be established--the one an Arab State consisting of Trans-Jordan united with that part of Palestine which lies to the east and south of a frontier such as we suggest in Section 3 below; the other a Jewish State consisting of that part of Palestine which lies to the north and west of that frontier."

Part 2:

More arrant nonsense and utter garbage:

4. "Rather than accept a failed experiment and gain an equal place in a new nation, the Zionists chopped the baby in half"

The Peel Commission in 1937 and the UN in 1947 suggested partition which the Jews accepted and the Arabs rejected. The baby was chopped in half when six Arab armies invaded Western Palestine in 1948 to try and grab the lot - and failed.

5. "Compare that to a British Foreign minister promising a British Zionist to back the right of alien Zionists to impose a state on indigenous Palestinians."

Sorry but it was all 51 Members of the League of Nations that stated that the Balfour Declaration recognised the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituing their national home in that country. No mention of "Zionists" just "Jews".

There was not even any mention of "Palestinians" in the Balfour Declaration or the Mandate. The Arabs living there were included in the term "existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine".

"Palestinians" is a term invented in 1964 and you have been successfully brainwashed by those who came up with this false and misleading term.

In conclusion:

You have now published 6 posts without justifying your comment that there is no difference between a Palestinian Jew and a Palestinian Moslem.

Do I take it that by your continuing silence you now admit there is a big difference? Start your next three posts off with answering this question first.
