Okay, so all statistics aside, I wanna talk about Israel. Well, I didn't know much about this topic and it didn't really intrigue me until I was emailed the following video about a Jewish British Lawmaker and his views on Israel
Youtube - "George Galloway- Palestenian Rights/Israel"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUFLpP9Prxo
Well at first I thought that perhaps Jews deserve Israel since that is their holy land and because of the Holocaust. I didn't know that the UN granted Israel to the Jews. Well the Jews did not have the right to get Palestine from the Palestinians. What right did BRITIAN have to grant JEWS someone ELSE'S COUNTRY? Even though they lost 6 million people in the Holocaust, someone else was responsible for it. The Jews have definitely suffered anti- semitism and discrimination but as Galloway said the only place where Jews never suffered was the Muslim world. The Jews left Europe under Islamic protection to North Africa. Before Israel, Palestine had Jews, Christians and Muslims living in harmony. But the people who practiced anti-semitism, who were responsible for the Holocaust did not pay their land but the people who never persecuted the Jews payed. Also Galloway makes the point that Israel was granted to atheistic Jews, and they didn't represent most of the Jews in the world.
