Subject: RE: BS: The suffering Palestinians
Teribus-The Jewish terrorist organizations, such as Irgun, were formed before WWII, trying to open immigration so that Jews could get out of Europe before they were rounded up into death camps. I'm not condoning their tactics, but their aims were perfectly legitimate, and the British government's adherence to tiny quotas made them complicit in the deaths of tens of thousands of European Jews.

When the UN partition plan was made, there were supposed to be two states. The Israeli War of Independence, started by the surrounding Arab nations, put an end to that plan.
