>> Fast-forward…
NO. Don't. You don't get to #cherryPick dates that suit you and skip over history that is unpleasant
BEFORE 1948, there were 2 World Wars.
400 years BEFORE #WWI, the land you call #Palestine was under #TurkishOccupation.
In other words, Palestine has not been "free" in at least 500+ years.
BEFORE 1948, there was also #WWII and #Holocaust.
You were saying something about "sweeping #ethnicCleansing?" Oh right, mass murder of #Jews don't count 🙄
Did I not tell you that
1. #Palestine has never been free and independent, at least in the last 500+ years? They were under #TurkishOccupation since 1517.
2. They were offered their own land for #selfDetermination, but they rejected it?
3. Then they fought multiple #civilWar and full-blown wars, and lost them ALL?
LOSERS don't get to set terms. There is no automatic #entitlement to any specific % over what the international community decided to award them
>> Allow Palestinians to have their land back and the murdering Hamas will have no hold on them.
1. #Palestine was never a free independent "state"— at least not in the last 500+ years (#TurkishOccupation since 1517…)
2. Didn't #UN allow #Palestinians to have "their" land back in 1947 but they bet all of it, went to war with #Israel, and LOST?
3. Have you ever lost money in a casino and asked it back under threat of murder?
>> Currently, and since I was born, Palestine has not been an independent nation. The people need their own sovereignty
#Palestine had been under #TurkishOccupation since 1517. In 1917, #Turkey sided with #Germany in #WWI against #British who were neutral toward Turkey. It rejected repeated British offers to withdraw from War & keep Palestine, but it refused— repeatedly
After #WWII, Palestine was offered #TwoStateSolution, which they also rejected— repeatedly
There are #UncannySimilarities in centuries of #TurkishOccupation of #Arabia-#Palestine & those of #MuslimOccupation of #MedievalIndia — both subsequently under #BritishEmpire, & both fighting for independence.
There were 2 factions fighting #BritishIndia for independence — one violent, led by #Bose, aligned with #Japan & #Nazi #Germany Axis, while the other peaceful, led by #Gandhi
Guess which one succeeded?
Try freeing yourself from #Hamas & #AxisOfResistance
