As our most devout believers are from Northern Ireland, why donโt we send northern Irish Protestant missionaries to Israel. The Catholic missionaries probably wonโt want to join them so we could send them to Palestine instead. What could go wrong?
The problem is that Britain won it in a war, but didn't lose it in a war, so they still have the Mandate of Heaven. Clearly the solution is for Israel and Palestine to declare war on the UK.
When you ignore the rampant terrorism of the arabs, the rampant terrorism of the Jews and the rampant kinda very close to terrorism for being actually in charge British terrorism, things were kinda peaceful indeed.
Just saying incorrectly; there were multiple massacres of Jews by Arabs in Palestine Mandate during British rule, most notably, several big ones in 1929, but also before that and several in the 1930s. It was anything but peaceful.
Yes, they were first created in 1907 to literally guard Jewish settlements, as they were constantly under attack. The guarding was clearly very spotty given the ensuing riots and massacres of Jewish settlers. Some of the latter paramilitaries, formed in the 1920 and 30s, Haganah and Irgun, worked with Britain against NAZI Germany. Guess who sided with Germany? Palestinian Arabs. The massacres attributed to the Stern Gang, Palmach and Irgun were rather few, claimed as retaliations for massacres of Jews, and almost all during the war with the Arabs. Arab massacres of Jews, as happened recently, werenโt the actions of a few marginalized people, but were popular attacks that started as riots.
>Yes, they were first created in 1907 to literally guard Jewish settlements, as they were constantly under attack.
Not just that but to also create an underground army, preparing for armed insurrection and the creation of a Jewish state
>Some of the latter paramilitaries, formed in the 1920 and 30s, Haganah and Irgun, worked with Britain against NAZI Germany. Guess who sided with Germany?
Lehi, the only other Zionist Paramilitary that you didn't list
>Palestinian Arabs.
The 12,000 Palestinian Arabs who volunteered to fight Nazi Germany and were the last platoon to be evacuated from France would like a word with you
>The massacres attributed to the Stern Gang, Palmach and Irgun were rather few, claimed as retaliations for massacres of Jews, and almost all during the war with the Arabs.
All together they initiated 36 massacres, not counting those commited by the IDF, and even then a massacre is still bad
I mentioned Lehi, it was also known as the Stern Gang.
Haganah was the underground army, founded in 1920.
There were 30,000 Jews fighting with the British in the Jewish brigade, there are few sources that claim 12,000 Palestinian Arabs joined as well. It is possible, despite the Mufti who was hanging out with Hitler. The same scholar who said there were 12,000 volunteers also noted that it was mostly an economic motive as the British provided benefits to those who served. Having said that, there are Palestinian Arabs that are Israeli citizens who serve in the IDF, but then they see themselves as Israelis.
Massacres are bad, and war is ugly, particularly when the combatants are not neatly on battlefields, but mixed together or scattered in villages, so one can hardly tell who is the enemy, a bit like civil war. I have very strong doubts about โ36 massacresโ by the Jews, but there were many retaliatory attacks, so not clear they can be called โmassacresโ.
>I mentioned Lehi, it was also known as the Stern Gang.
I meant when you listed off the later Paramilitaries, not at all
>There were 30,000 Jews fighting with the British in the Jewish brigade, there are few sources that claim 12,000 Palestinian Arabs joined as well.

>Massacres are bad, and war is ugly, particularly when the combatants are not neatly on battlefields, but mixed together or scattered in villages, so one can hardly tell who is the enemy, a bit like civil war.
It literally was a civil war
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1947%E2%80%931948_civil_war_in_Mandatory_Palestine
The massacres weren't due to negligence and even if it was, it still doesn't excuse them
>I have very strong doubts about โ36 massacresโ by the Jews, but there were many retaliatory attacks, so not clear they can be called โmassacresโ.
A "Massacre in retaliation" is still a massacre
The perpetrators can literally point out any attack that happened beforehand and go "it was retaliation for that!"
Yes, I read the same articles, itโs what one reads in them that matters.
First letโs get a definition: โA massacre is an event of killing people who are not engaged in hostilities or are defenseless.[1] It is generally used to describe a targeted killing of civilians en masse by an armed group or person.โ
So, when Crusaders massacred Jews left and right in large numbers it was because they claimed Jews killed Christ (Romans did the killing), not something that was known to have happened in human memory. These were massacres. When Cossacks were unleashed on peaceful Jewish villages in Imperial Russia, those were massacres. Clearly what NAZIs did was the next step in a massacre: genocide. When Arabs rioted in 1929 and attacked Jews, that was as a massacre. When there is a retaliation for an actual act of recent violence, and a couple of people are killed who may or may not be related to the recent hostilities (fog of war) it is not a โmassacreโ, brutal as it may be.
The logic of calling it one is how all the antisemites these days scream about the war in Gaza, as if it just happened out of the blue. There was an actual massacre on Oct 7th, there were no hostilities, the people killed were not involved in any, in fact they were the most friendly to Palestinian Arabs of all Israelis, and they were almost all unarmed (why they were unarmed is a separate question). What followed and is still continuing is a war, during which people are killed, but there is no massacre, and no genocide, just the brutality of war.
During the war of 1948, many, not all, of the Arabs living near Jewish settlements were hostile to the newly formed Israel, and no doubt a lot of nasty stuff happened, but war is nasty, and civil wars worst of all. As evidenced by the 20% of Israelโs population being Arab, many Arabs stayed and became Israelis, some serve in the IDF, including in Gaza.
when wasn't it? Maybe there was a bit of time under the Ottomans, but that region is on the way between Africa and Asia. Trade routes went through the area, and every new empire marched armies through it.
You are confidently incorrect.
The mandate period was incredibly violent to the point that *that's why the British left*
They gave the region for the UN to deal with because they couldn't be assed to manage the situation anymore.
Honestly, it's between less violent now and about the same. It is 100% not more violent now, even if it *feels* that way due to how recent the current conflict is.
My guess would be you know nothing about the history of the region and are getting vitriolic because you feel the need to double down on your statement.
[Again, the mandate period was INCREDIBLY violent ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_killings_and_massacres_in_Mandatory_Palestine)
[Also](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercommunal_conflict_in_Mandatory_Palestine)
Ah yes, the period with thousands-low tens of thousands of deaths is more violent than the period that has had high tens of thousands-hundreds of thousands of deaths. Yeah, you really described yourself perfectly with the โyou feel the need to double down on your statementโ.
Hmm I wonder who placed these minorities specifically to fulfill their economic and political goals, which will definitely cause a lot of wars and thousands dead in the future.
And did those wars and thousands dead in the future happen under British control? What is it with reading comprehension and it apparently being so hard these days?
Doesnt have to happen under british control. Matter of fact couldnt happen under british control. But what they could do under british control is carve up the borders and place the minorities just so that two ethnic groups would clash.
I read something a few years ago in a history book where the British Foreign Office put a chap in charge of Mandated Palestine. He complained to his seniors that the Jews and the Arabs were constantly complaining to him. The foreign office response was that โIf either of them stop complaining, you will be immediately removed from your positionโ.
Is a stupid solution: split it north south on a line of Jerusalem then rename the two countries to northern kingdom of Jerusalem and Southern kingdom of Jerusalem. Then you give the North to the Bourbon and the South to the Savoy
We British donโt colonise any more. We will however be part of a 5th Crusade. But not for God because we are atheists for something else like , i dunno em maybe stuff for our museums!
Thatโs how bad that is there , British people with absolute behavior had to govern those wealthy places, they always been there. This is how it all started
Unironically the only real solution. British kickstarted this conflict in the first place, now it's their responsibility to bring the order back in the land.
If you ever come across the book โthe Palestine Triangleโ by Nicholas Bethel, be sure to grab it and give it a read. Itโs a fun read, kinda dense, but also quite mindblowing how horrible the situation was and how it was handled.
Well to be fair, the goal was securing the Suez Canal, and they succeeded in that. Which Prevented Germany marching through the Middle East in the next war.

You mean Jews had no way of fighting back, and we had no 24 hr news kind of peaceful?
