A lot of people commented (on Facebook) that using the British census data, the Jewish population was higher than I originally stated. I am not using the British census. I’m using academic sources who explain that the census was inaccurate for a variety of reasons. I found the whole thing not worth getting into though and I could see leaving it up would only cause further people to latch onto that, so the number is gone. Love you all. 😘

Are you a bot? Obviously absolutely no one here supports hostages or murder a point which should have been clear if you read the post. If you’re not a bot, perhaps consider telling this to people who need convincing.
You mention that in the 19 century the British controlled central Palestine and designated it as a Jewish home land, yet they didn't have the right to do so.
A very 21st century perspective on 19th century politics and military might.
The British Empire was the most powerful national collective on earth at the time. The British army was unstoppable, the British Navy ruled the waves, and the Empress Victoria, Queen of England reigned over people who were so certain of their own superiority, that they ceased and held, or distributed lands from indigenous peoples all over the world.
Might made right. (It was that way until the United Nation began to exert international law.)
The Palestinians may be entitled to reparations from the United Kingdom and Commonwealth for the lands they lost, but make no mistake, that land has been lost to them. Only war would get it back. There are close to 8 million Israelis, most are trained soldiers, and they have nowhere else to go, so they are not going to leave.
2.5 million Palestinians who are not soldiers will never defeat 8 million Israelis.
The pragmatic question for everyone is "What do we do now?"
None of that history justifies the indiscriminate bombing by Israel in the current response to Hama's October 8, 2023 Ambush and slaughter of Israelis. What is happening now in Gaza is a horror on full display to the world.
How Best do we stop it while ensuring the long term safety of ALL peoples? :
Be Honest, during discussions.
Be Pragmatic, most of the land once seen as Palestine is gone, and won't be surrendered. There may be a new nation called Palestine, but it's borders will be very different. Israel is not going away.
Recognize that neither Palestinians nor Israelis can slaughter their way to peace, safety and prosperity.
The Israeli response in Gaza was provoked by Hamas terrorists, who knew there would be a wild over-reaction to ambushing Israel. Should Israel endure endless rocket attacks and periodic ambushes? Clearly No.
Neither should Palestinians be confined to Gaza for the rest of eternity, with Israel controling water, power, and access to the outside world. That Must Change Now. Neither, should Palestinians citizens be driven from their homes again only to become massive collateral casualties. That is a horror.
Will Palestinians turn over the Hamas terrorists who brought this horror down on them?
Will Israel stop using 2000lb bombs to kill individual known terrorists?
The two questions are linked together.
How do Israeli soldiers even know who is Hamas and who isn't?
Do Israelis have to wait until they get shot, and then respond. No soldier will agree to those rules of engagement. For now, all Palestinians are likely assumed to Hamas, until proven otherwise, and THAT is the recipe for slaughter.
Arab nations expelled their Jewish citizens, who then fled to Israel without being compensated for the lands they lost. Perhaps those same Arab nations should agree to accept some Palestinian refugees?
So far Arab nations have not stepped up.
Eventually a Palestinian homeland needs to be established, but I see little hope of that, until cooler heads prevail. For now, a lasting ceasefire must happen ASAP.

Now list every attack by Israel against Palestinians.
A retired army officer? What a surprise. 🙄
Go spew your genocide-loving garbage elsewhere.
The bookshelf was choice. Pizza, Pincushions, and Playing it Straight is a treasure 😅 and ANGELA DAVISSSSS too lol. But he only has eyes for Trump 😍
Yes! I was wondering if he would notice. I also included a few books by my friend Itzel. She’s great too!
PP&P was from me! I read it a few months ago and totally loved it so I sent Brooke a copy.
I bet you never thought you would see it by a Trump book
I did not! Lol.
And yeah, what a fucked up situation. I'm helping send some buses to DC this Saturday, should be another big one 💖🇵🇸
That sounds amazing ♥️
