The Balfour declaration itself should not have happened because if you think about it, the Zionists back in the day, got a homeland for themselves through playing politics in Europe. Basically UK took land that did not belong to them (they were colonizers and therefore the lands they occupied were not theirs to dole out to someone else), and gave it to someone else that did not even live there, without consulting people who actually lived there and had been for centuries. So Israel does not have very many legitimate reasons to even exist, except for colonial politics of the 20th century. But this is ancient history now, and no longer relevant to ponder on, because reality is Israel exists today and the people there have their identities, families, homes, businesses and so on tied to that country. So it has now become legitimate because of time. Its similar to the USA or Canada. People here were colonizers of Native American land. But now these are legitimate countries, because enough time has passed.
But the land stealing I am referring to is since 1967. They have repeatedly built settlements, forced Palestinians out of their homes, and now what the Palestinians have left are a few enclaves that don't have territorial contiguity, where they don't have control of their lands, airspace, movement, rights or resources. An Israeli settler who attacks and burns a Palestinian home or a field, or kills a Palestinian is tried by Israeli civil and criminal law, while the Palestinians are tried per the military court system that falls short of international standards for the conduct of fair trials and administration of justice. I will stop here, but there is tons more on how the Israelis mistreat Palestinians. It is a horrendous existence for them. Just read up about apartheid in Israel and you will see. Here is an example:
PS: That first lady is so annoying though. Just speak your mind! I can see it in your eyes you feel its justified instead of beating about the bush!
