'The very foundation of Israel as an apartheid entity built on the mass graves of Palestinian civilians murdered by Israel’s pre-state militias was facilitated by the Jordanian monarchy and regime. The definitive book on this still-woefully neglected area of history is reputed to be Avi Shlaim’s 1988 Collusion Across the Jordan (later revised and abridged as The Politics of Partition).

As Andrew and Leslie Cockburn summarise in their 1991 book about the history of the US-Israel military and intelligence alliance, Dangerous Liaison: “Despite the traditional perception that all Arab countries united to crush Israel at birth, King Abdullah of Jordan [the present King’s grandfather] was by no means unalterably opposed to the Jewish state. In fact, secret negotiations with the king, involving [future first Mossad chief Reuven] Shiloah, [General] Moshe Dayan, and others in [first Prime Minister David] Ben-Gurion’s inner circle, resulted in a secret agreement, lubricated by bribes.”

This corrupt agreement stipulated that, “Abdullah would collude with Israel in order to ensure that the independent Palestinian state envisaged by the United Nations would never come into being. Instead, with Israeli assent and encouragement, Abdullah seized Arab Palestine in defiance of his fellow Arab rulers and ruled it as the West Bank.”

Your views sure are opposite to mine....while you act like a pompous twat calling out racism and getting yourself all offended on behalf of your fellow muslims you continue to ignore Pirate and his anti Jewish posts and pictures and there are many of them on quite a few threads in this section of the forum......Maybe Islam never left you Les and your hatred of Jews is as obvious as Pirates or maybe like an out of touch pompous twat you are Jews are mainly white so there can be no racism or anti semitism against people you personally hate and wont stick up for with the same vigour you do muslims.

Not to mention the appalling lack of punctuation. 🙄

Deliberately confusing anti Zionist and anti Jew is such a common thing at the moment. It's an easy target that the right have picked on to say: "Look! They don't like foreigners or other cultures either, but at least we admit it!"

As I understand it, General Chat is unmoderated. Whilst I don't envy the mods, I agree that sometimes things go too far and some appear to be bordering paranoid.

I'm torn between ignoring and challenging them.

Pointing out religious bigotry, hatred and supremacism is now considered "religious bigotry" itself? Funny old world.

They get an easy ride from the press, as they control the press.Thats the lefies that is.

They could spin a tornado...

If you defended your own country,or even race then straight away you are branded a racist, nazi or being far right. Eg Tommy Robinson.

You come at them if facts and try to debate them then they go back to there far right card.

What's my race??
