"The facts mam, just the facts." Joe Friday
The 1967 borders were defendable.
Since 1967 the return to borders has been the main point of peace talks.
It was a principal of post war order, no more Sudatenland, no taking chunks of other countries, for that path leads to larger wars.
In war, there are rules about Occupied Lands. One is you cannot displace the people who live there and replace them with your own to settle the land.
Saddam taking Kuwait was not tolerated. It started the first gulf war.
Borders must be respected. Expanding your borders, greater anything, was a leading cause of broader war.
50,000,000 dead, Europe in ruins, was bad for the economy. Rules were made to prevent the cycle of cause and war.
The complaint from Islamic lands is first, it was the last European Colony.
While Christian Europe killed Jews, they were tolerated in Islamic lands, as people of the book. They are all Semites.
Next, the very rules agreed on to prevent future wars were not applied to this post colonial European colony.
People were driven from their homes, people who had nothing to do with borders or wars, and want the right to return to homes and farms they had for many generations. This went on from 1948.
1967 might have been a war, the people who lost their lands were not involved, they were just between Egypt, Jorden, Sryia, and were overrun.
As non combatants, No one has any claim to their lands, due to fighting a third, forth, fifth party.
All International Law supports the right of people to return to their homes. It forbids an occuopier from taking the land of people outside their border, non combatants, displacing them, and replacing them with their own settlers.
The basis of this growing dispute, is the International Law was not applied, when the people who lost their homes and farms were Islamic.
The modern term is Ethnic Clensing, and it is a war crime, and crime against humanity.
The double standard of the West, rules for some, theft and murder for others, not equal justice under law, has spawned revenge by terror, same to you, responses.
Countries like Iran who have a fairly large Jewish population, hate the West for holding double standards. Their right to self rule, like many other countries, was replaced by the British and the CIA, imposing the Shah on them, who ruled by terror. Many were tortured and murdered because they might go Communist. A sure sign on the road to becoming Reds was they wanted to elect their own leaders, and chose their own form of government.
The West chose their leaders, and the brand of cattle prod used in questioning.
Longer term we have produced an Islamic world who would side with China, in the coming showdown. Iran sells them oil, Pakistan has offered a navel base, Afganistan gave them mining rights,
The West has stolen their lands, imposed dictators, armed his army and police, and denied them freedom and self rule. China does not get involved in domestic issues, just trade.
The West will slide into isolation as the rest of the world prospers.
We have no one to blame but ourselves. Blind Justice should treat all the same. When the least among you says, I was treated fairly, the law defended me, the world will support you.
Now I am going out top slaughter my neighbor, Papist Dogs, who have a swimming pool I deserve.
