There is a constant written record of brutal oppression and pogroms against Jews army88 since the 12th Century, it's really hard to fathom why.Originally posted by army88 View Post
In the same way I find it impossible to rationalise how the people of a religion that has been so brutally treated throughout history, metes out exactly the same brutality to a group of people they have displaced, murdered and imprisoned.Comment

If the Israelis had not kicked the Palestinians out of their homes, we would not have this problem Balan. The only Arabs who show any passion towards the plight of the Palestinians are the Jordanians.Originally posted by Balanbam00 View PostBT Looks only at Israel but apartheid ? Why not look what's happening in Lebanon.
These young people identify many problems with the Lebanese and Palestinian political systems, and challenge their very essence. The first considers them foreigners, and subjects them to many restrictions in terms of their right to work and to own property, without taking into account their specificities as stateless people having sought refuge in Lebanon. The second deprives the youth of true, effective political representation and does not protect them from the Lebanese state.
Palestinian refugees in Lebanon are treated as second-class residents, restricted from working in most fields, banned from owning property, forced to live in run-down camps and barred from formal education.
Mohamad Jabbar makes $10 a day at his butcher shop, just a tenth of what he could earn if Lebanese authorities allowed him to operate outside the military-guarded camp in Beddawi.
“It’s like living in a prison,” Jabbar said. “The government controls where I live and where I work.”
Palestinians cannot own businesses in Lebanon and are banned from most decent-paying professions, including medicine and law. An estimated two-thirds live in poverty. The government will not give citizenship rights to Palestinian refugees, for fear it could make them stay forever.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) deals with aid for Palestinians, while the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) covers Syrians – and the difference in the aid provided is stark. UNHCR gives 150,000 Syrians in Lebanon $175 a month per family; UNRWA, however, can only give 61,000 Palestinians $10 for each family member every three months, spokespersons told Al Jazeera. Both agencies say they target whoever is considered the most vulnerable.
Unlike Lebanese citizens, Palestinians cannot obtain free treatment at hospitals. They are also barred from most public schools. UNRWA has opened 67 schools and 27 clinics in Lebanon, but the clinics are only for general check-ups, while refugees with serious illnesses, such as cancer, must seek help from other NGOs.
Nearly 20 percent Palestinians between the ages of six and 15 – and 30 percent of those aged 16 to 18 – are out of school in Lebanon, often because they are forced to work when their parents cannot. More than 30 percent of Palestinians leave school due to low achievement.
“The schools are so bad, I didn’t see a point in going any more,” said Ali, a 17-year-old Palestinian refugee who asked to withhold his last name. “I was 14 when I left, and I could barely read or write.”
Nine****-year-old Mahmoud Mustafa dropped out three years ago. Asked what his dream job is, he laughs: “We’re refugees, we can’t dream here. We’re just worried about living today.”
Lebanon has 12 refugee camps to house the generations of Palestinians pushed from their homes after the 1948 founding of Israel. Many lack basic services, such as electricity, sewage and waste disposal networks. Seventy-eight percent of households complain of dampness, 62 percent suffer from water leakage, and 52 percent have poor ventilation, according to a UNRWA study.
( Many Palestinians just left Israel ,as at that time there was fighting, they left because of fear. The Arabs were told in Akko to stay ,nothing will happen to them, and today Old Akko is an Arab town. )
Thousands of Palestinians have held demonstrations across Lebanon over the past week, including one in Beirut on Sunday that turned violent. Protesters threw rocks and set rubbish cans on fire outside of the US embassy, while Lebanese security forces fired tear gas and water cannon into the crowd.
At another protest in the capital on Monday, demonstrators chanted: “Death to America! Death to Israel!”
It always amazes me how the Arab nations have turned their backs on the Palestinians and left them to the mercy of the Jews.

''have been displaced'' BT ,some left on their own will. If there is fighting and there was in 1948,people become scared ,and they left. Google 'Palestine remembers', images. There you will photos of Arabs leaving without any soldiers there, they just left because of fear. ( Some could have been expelled because they fired on cars busses etc ) But most left.
Causes of the 1948 Palestinian exodus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes...stinian_exodus
During the 1948 Palestine War in which the State of Israel was established, around 700,000 Palestinian Arabs or 85% of the total population of the territory Israel captured fled or were expelled from their homes by Israeli forces.
The causes for this mass displacement is a matter of great controversy among historians, journalists, and commentators.
In the first decades after the exodus two diametrically opposed schools of analysis emerged; Israel claimed that the Palestinians left because they were ordered to by their own leaders, who deliberately incited them into panic, to clear the field for the war, while the Arabs claimed that they were expelled at gunpoint by Zionist forces who deliberately incited them into panic.
( the idea was if all the Arabs left then Arab forces would come in and destroy the Jewish 'Haggana,' (Haggana means in Hebrew 'defence') or Jewish fighters at that time 1948.
According to Zionist historians, the Arabs in Palestine were asked to stay and live as citizens in the Jewish state. Instead, they chose to leave, either because they were unwilling to live with the Jews, or because they expected an Arab military victory which would annihilate the Zionists. They thought they could leave temporarily and return at their leisure. Later, an additional claim was put forth, namely that the Palestinians were ordered to leave, with radio broadcasts instructing them to quit their homes.
In a review in 2000, Philip Mendes pointed to the prevailing Jewish view being that "... it was an absolute fact that the Palestinian Arabs departed in 1948 at the behest of their own leaders, and that Israel desperately attempted to persuade them to stayComment

why was he shot??
Palestinian **** shot and killed by Israeli forces in West Bank
Israeli soldiers shot 19-year-old Nehad Amin Barghouti in the abdomen during confrontations in Nabi Saeleh near Ramallah.
A Palestinian man has been shot and killed by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank village of Nabi Saleh, the health ministry said, during what witnesses described as a confrontation between protesters and Israeli soldiers.
The Palestinian health ministry said on Tuesday that a Palestinian “citizen” was killed by Israeli fire in Nabi Saleh, northwest of Ramallah.
According to Palestinian sources, Nihad Barghouti was gravely injured after sustaining a gunshot wound to the upper body in the Palestinian village of Nabi Saleh northwest of Ramallah. He died of his wounds shortly after arriving at a hospital.
Barghouti was released from Israeli prison several months back after serving time for security offenses.
The slain militant posted belligerent messages to his social media, warning on his Facebook page of "dying a natural death", adding "only die in a hail of lead bullets."
Following the incident, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) issued a statement saying it was investigating Barghouti's death and preceding events.
Some 20 Palestinian rioters threw rocks and rioted near a guard post at the entrance to the village," the IDF Spokesperson's Unit said. "An IDF force stationed at the scene responded with riot control measures and live fire. The claim of a Palestinian casualty is being investigated."
The altercation erupted when security forces entered the village to raze part of the home of Mahmoud Jaradat, a member of the terrorist squad behind the killing of 20-year-old Israeli Yehuda Dimentman last December in the northern West Bank settlement of Homesh.

After the assassination, clashes broke out between Palestinians and Israeli security forces in multiple locations.

The General Assembly
The Security Council
The UN Human Rights Committee
UNRWA
UNESCO
The Inalienable Rights Committee
The Fourth Committee (Special Political and Decolonization)
United Nations Conciliation Commission for Palestine
The Working Group on the Financing of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East

United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs
Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices
Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs
not forgetting our own BT,
Special Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices Affecting Human Rights of Palestinian People and Other Arabs of Occupied Territories
have preferred to wring their collective hands, sit back and record the escalating violence between Arabs and Jews - issuing reams of reports condemning Israel for what is happening – yet taking no action to try and end that violence and eliminate the need for many of these voyeur groups to exist.Comment
