Israel In the Middle East
Giving up Land does not bring Peace...
A lot of people around the world earnestly believe that there exists a Palestinian people, whom had a land that lush and green and full of Palestinian culture. The history however is somewhat different. Let's look at some maps that show us whats for real, and what's not for real. There was never an Arab-Palestinian government, no taxation, no currency, no courts, no culture, no schools, no economy, no stamps, etc. |

 | This map, shows the central part of the Middle East as it was in 1920. The big green chunk, had just recently (in 1917) been conquered by the British Empire. And thru Lord Balfour, the Jewish were promised "A homeland in Palestine ". An International treaty was signed in 1920 adopting the Balfour Declaration. But the British government balked and violated the agreement, and changed its promises, because they were hungry for power and influence, and wanted the power over the oil resources of the Middle East. |
So the British gave the area today known as Iraq away to the Arabs. Later, they cut away 78 per cent of the original British Mandate of Palestine allocated to the Jewish people in 1921 and it became the Hashemite Kingdom of Transjordan as shown in the following map. Today, this terroritory it is known as Jordan. | |
| The rest of the British mandate was allocated and designated for Jewish State and habitation, with a another violation a small clause was added. It was going to be split into two states, one large for the Arabs, and one for the Jews. But Great Britain once again balked, and met heavy opposition from Jewish people all over the world. They wanted Britain to keep their promise. But time went on... and on... |  |
 | Just a year later, the next British strike against the People of God, came. They gave away more. They took all of the Golan Heights, and gave it to France (!) whom added it to their mandate. Later it came under Syria, until Israel liberated it and rescued it from their enemy during the 6-day war in June 1967. |
Years went by, and the Jewish people did not get their homeland. A lot of pressure were put on the British government, with no result. They hardened their hearts. Then came the second world war. Six million two hundred thousand Jews died. 37 million people died, all-together. After the war Britain had to turn around, and resigned as the trustee of the Mandate for Palestine, the United Nations took over, and came to a resolution, and voted for a partition in November 1947. The U.N. and the Arabs with the help of the British reckon they would battle the Jews, and hoped to get the land, which as it turned out, the Jews defended their territory and retained part of their ancestral land. But G-d has had enough, and crushed the rest of the once Great British empire - Great Britain ceased to exist and became merely Britain within 40 years of the start of their commission with "Palestine". Just as G-d judged nations after 40 years before, He did it again. |
|---|
 | On November 29th, 1947, the United Nations voted for the partition of (the rest of) Palestine. In violation of International treaties. They divided it as is shown on this map.The yellow areas were supposed to be given to the Jews, the green to the Arabs, and the red part was supposed to be " international". Jerusalem for 10 years only was in the red zone. The Jews didn't like it, but accepted it. All this happened very fast, as it spoken of in Isaiah 66:8-9. |
The day after the establishing of Israel, on the 5th Iyar in the year 5708 AM, or May 14th, 1948, six Arab armies attacked. The Israeli army had 18.000 soldiers, with a total of 13.000 guns. and won over a tremendous Arab force. A mötley band of men, with not even a gun each, conquered a well trained Arab war machine, led by several British officers. | |
 | The result was an armistice. The map besides shows you how the boundaries of Israel where after the armistice.The following map shows what happened next. |
| But in 1950 Jordan and Egypt annexed parts of the land that Israel hadn't liberated and gotten their hands on. Egypt took the Gaza-strip, and Jordan annexed Judea and Samaria and called it "the West Bank". The world forgot the fact that Bethlehem, where Jesus was born - was located in Judea (which means the land of the Jews) and not in the West Bank. |  |
 | But not for long. In 1967, in the swift and deadly war, known to the world as the six-day-war, the Jews liberated and took their land back. And today it belongs to Israel. Even though the News media still is talking about the "West Bank aka Judea and Samaria", in terms like "occupied" - and the world demands that Israel is supposed to give their heartland to a people who don't exist, and whom never lived there before the more Jews started to return in the latter part of the last century. |
