@CptAllenHistory I think the term solidified after the ‘67 war. Before that it was West bank or the West bank of the Jordan river. For 19 years before the ‘67 war after Jordan captured it in ‘48 and formally annexed it in ‘51 it was Jordanian and the inhabitants were Jordanian citizens.

Jews first came to Paris in the 1st century under Roman rule. By the 6th century, a small community thrived in trade and learning. By the 9th-10th centuries, a vibrant quarter grew near today’s Rue de la Harpe, lasting until Philip Augustus expelled them in 1182.
@curatorWH Ironically, Phillip Augustus was from the germanic Frank tribe which slowly migrated into and later conquered the territory of modern France in the fifth century C.E. The Jews were in "France" before the "French."

👉The Ben & Jerry's global company’s management is furious! But there is nothing it can do: Israel’s Ben & Jerry’s has released a special Zionist ice cream called “Milk and Honey,” a vanilla-and-honey cream ice cream with fudge pieces shaped like Stars of David. The ice cream is being produced in cooperation with dairy farms from the Gaza border area and the Yad Mordechai apiaries, with part of the proceeds going toward the region’s rehabilitation.
👉A short time ago, Ben & Jerry’s global board decided to stop selling its products in Judea and Samaria. The Israeli franchisee and importer, Avi Zinger, refused to comply with the directive. In response, the global company announced that it would not renew its franchise agreement. The company also decided to release a Palestine-flavored ice cream as a show of solidarity with the terrorists.
👉The international parent company, Unilever, did not support Ben & Jerry’s global decision to boycott Israel. It reached an agreement to sell the brand’s rights in Israel fully and permanently to Zinger. Ben & Jerry’s global management filed a lawsuit against its parent company, Unilever, in an attempt to block the deal, but a federal judge rejected the request for an injunction and approved the sale.
👉As a result, the brand in Israel became fully independent and separate from the global company. Now, the Israeli brand is releasing an unmistakably Zionist flavor, right in the face of the antisemitic management abroad. 🤣(From the Sinai Project)
This day (July 1) in 1994, Yasser Arafat — architect of decades of terrorism and death — entered Gaza and took control of the newly created Palestinian Authority.
The Oslo Accords had presented it as a “provisional” body meant to build toward peace. Instead, Arafat and his inner circle turned it into one of history’s most profitable kleptocracies.
Billions in international aid flowed in for schools, infrastructure, and development. Much of it disappeared into Swiss bank accounts, luxury properties, and payments to loyalists. Arafat’s personal wealth reached into the billions.
That same culture of corruption and theft continued under his successors. Aid money has long funded terror salaries, tunnels, and propaganda instead of functioning institutions.
Sadly, Oslo did not create partners for peace. It empowered a parasitic ruling class that enriched itself while weaponizing grievance and violence against Israel.
July 1, 1994 was not the beginning of a new era of hope. It was the day the scam was institutionalized.
Some “provisional” arrangements become permanent disasters.
Before the Crusades, two-thirds of the Christian world had already fallen under Islamic rule.
Your school probably skipped that part.
They taught you the Crusades began in 1095, as if Christians just woke up one morning and decided to march east for no reason.
But history did not begin in 1095.
By then, Islamic armies had already conquered massive portions of the Christian world:
Syria.
Egypt.
North Africa.
The Holy Land.
Spain.
In 711 AD, Islamic forces crossed into Spain.
By 732 AD, they had pushed all the way into France.
That is where Charles Martel met them at the Battle of Tours and stopped the advance into Western Europe.
Some historians consider it one of the most decisive battles in world history.
So when people talk about the Crusades without mentioning the 400 years before them, they are not giving you history.
They are giving you a narrative.
Were the Crusades complicated?
Of course.
Were Christians perfect?
No.
But the idea that the Crusades were some random act of Christian aggression is historically dishonest.
The real story begins long before 1095.
And once you know what happened before the Crusades, the entire conversation changes.
They buried this.
Now you know.
Turkey cannot lecture the world about sovereignty while it continues to maintain military control over northern Cyprus more than 50 years after its 1974 invasion.
The international community does not recognize the self-declared state in northern Cyprus, and UN resolutions continue to support the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus.
Respect for international law cannot be selective. If borders matter, they must matter everywhere. If sovereignty matters, it must apply to Cyprus as well.
The occupation of northern Cyprus should not be ignored or normalized. History does not expire simply because the world chooses to look away.
Trump has lost his way.

The Washington Post buried “Two Million Jews Slain” on page 6.
On November 25, 1942 — while the Nazis were systematically murdering thousands of Jews every single day — major American newspapers treated the greatest crime in history like a minor footnote.
A 32-year-old Palestinian Jew named Peter Bergson saw it and was furious.
Instead of waiting for polite diplomacy, he and his small group immediately shifted focus to an all-out rescue mission.
They launched one of the most shocking ad campaigns in American history:
“FOR SALE TO HUMANITY: 70,000 JEWS — GUARANTEED HUMAN BEINGS AT $50 A PIECE.”
(The Romanian government had offered to release the Jews if the Allies covered basic transport costs. It was thought to be around $50 per person — it turned out to be even less: just $8.50 to save an innocent man, woman, or child.)
The “Bergson Boys” demanded immediate Allied action while there was still time.
The established American Jewish leadership was horrified. They preferred quiet lobbying and “responsible” channels — and feared looking too loud, too pushy, or too Jewish.
While the gas chambers ran at full capacity and the Bermuda Conference produced nothing but empty words, Bergson’s aggressive campaign helped force Roosevelt’s hand and contributed to the creation of the War Refugee Board in 1944.
In humanity’s darkest hour, some Jews chose to scream — and history remembers them.
