#2 Mr Gromgoru

Sine yesterday I didn't see in time your posts about UK and WWII where you played "holier than thou" I will remind you that there were Palestinian Jews who, in 1944 with Auschwitz working at top capacity, instead of say, enlisting in the Allied Armies were launching terrorist attacks on the British thus pinning in the Middle East resources who should have been fighting the Nazis. Furthermore one of those terrorists, a such Itzhak Shamir, instead of being ostracized as a traitor ended becoming Prime Minister of Israel

Menachem Begin wasn't in Palestine at this time so he is innocent of the crime of fighting the British at a time doing so meant helping the Naizs.

#5 JFM, you have a little problem with facts. Why don't you read the books I've cited before you open your ignorant yap.

p.s. Itzhak Shamir worth a billion of Europeans of Mosaic Faith like you.

#7 Are you sure JFM is Jewish, g(r)omgoru?

Gentlemen, I repeat my question from yesterday: is this really necessary? We are all on the same side of the war on jihad, and can disagree on some minor details without disagreeing on the critical point. As it was also during World War II, where some Jews saw the British refusal to allow Jews to emigrate to Palestine as participation, however unintended, in the German genocide... and it must be remembered there was a strong antisemitic streak in the British government, then and since -- so the conclusion was not necessarily that far off about the Foreign Department which ran the Palestinian Mandate, at least.

Most certainly their souls were not pure as the driven snow. Even after the war the British government as one of the Four Powers controlling conquered Germany, put Jews in refugee camps surrounded by barbed wire, and incarcerated those who attempted to sneak into the Palestinian Mandate on Cyprus, again behind barbed wire. Surely all here have seen the film Exodus or read the book! In a similar vein, while my mother and her family were in hiding during the war in Holland, her cousins were incarcerated by the British in Tanganyika (now part of Tanzania). And while the British at the time believed their reasoning to be sound, those at the receiving end did not necessarily agree.
