@crystaloftruth@TelegraphWorld The only difference between a spacecraft and a missile if if it's manned. Any "spacecraft" can be used as a missile and vice versa.
@hi13736 @scaredofrobots @Retro_Sicotte@Eion7 @LiZaisatweetie @TelegraphWorld So you're comparing these tiny camps, the purpose of which is still under debate, to the massive industrialised death camps of nazi germany?
@CraigWhite2020 @Theo_____S @jackson013101@dee4life2137@Tyblake02@Breaking911 Where does this notion of it being a wasteland come from? There were plenty of Muslim majority cities in Ottoman Palestine.
The Palestinians could've done everything Israel did, they just needed to industrialise, which is where all of Israel's development came from.
@Theo_____S @jackson013101@dee4life2137 @CraigWhite2020 @Tyblake02@Breaking911 The Palestinians were, definitively, not left alone at all.
Learn history, prior to the war, Zionist terrorist attacks were the norm. Most of what would eventually become the IDF started out as terrorist groups such as Irgun.
The brutal Zionist insurgency raged for years.
@Theo_____S @jackson013101@dee4life2137 @CraigWhite2020 @Tyblake02@Breaking911 Are you dense? Stop referring to the land as unsettled when I just showed you it's not.
Your comparison with Hispanics isn't a good comparison. What is comparing it to the Native Americans, and I doubt you'd dispute that America was built off of stolen land.
@Theo_____S @jackson013101@dee4life2137 @CraigWhite2020 @Tyblake02@Breaking911 Unsettled land????
Ottoman records show 603,000 Arab Palestinians in 1915.
It also shows less than 40,000 jews in Palestine in 1915.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD Except it's not special pleading. I'm stating facts.
The fact is that the Jewish population was so low that they couldn't mount an effective revolt again.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD This doesn't dispute my point. The fact of the matter is that Jewish immigration was far larger compared to the previous population compared to the Arab immigration.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD It's not hard. We're talking about Palestine, not the middle east at large. What happened to the rest of the middle east is a moot point.
The fact of the matter is, after the Bar Kokhba revolt the jews were, for all intents and purposes wiped out in the region.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD The difference is in the size of the immigration. The Ottoman records show an increase from 300,000 to 470,000 ish in the late 1900s.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD Please show me where Arabs colonised the Jews. Because it certainly wasn't in Palestine.
The Jews had already been largely wiped out in the region for nearly 500 years before the muslim conquests.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD How does the Mamluks or Ottomans make my narrative fall apart at all. Throughout Mamluk reign muslims were the majority in Palestine.
@ARedJay1@AltHistoryHub@SOROSWRLD Again, yes. The earliest Ottoman records give 300,000 muslims in Palestine by the mid 19th century. That's 90% of the population there. Before any of the immigration they already had a supermajority.
