Israel/Palestine occupation
- After World war two the British (who were in control of Palestine at the time) gave the Jewish refugees 60% of Palestine to create Israel.
- The Jewish bible (Torah scroll) claims that Palestine was the home of the European Jews.
- 90% of the Jews in Israel are Ashkenazim Jews, which means they are of European decent and are not Middle Easterners.
- When war broke loose in Palestine, the US gave Israel chemical weapons.
- The Palestinians currently only have two strips of land, the West Bank and the Gaza strip. Even though these two strips are recognized by the UN as Palestinian land the Israeli army continues to occupy it and heavily-armed Jewish settlers continue to live in it (illegally).
- Many Palestinians fled in horror for their lives. Today those people and their descendants are known as Palestinian refugees. About 70% of the population of the Gaza strip are refugees.
- The Israeli's have a full army which includes an air force and navy.
- Palestinians have nor army, nor navy or air force. Israel does not even allow Palestine to get foreign aid (medicine/clothing etc.)
- Israel bombs Palestine on a regular basis everyday.
- The Palestinians have what is known as a "resistance" movements and terror organizations to fight Israel.
