Mods -Again sorry for this long post, but the Zionists here are rewriting history so e/o should believe the Zionist propaganda.
Lakewood Fellow -“You seem intent on taking Anti Semites at their words that the reason they hate Jews is really because of the pretext they give:
Or do you only believe the Arabs who used the pretext that they hate Jews because of Zionism?”
Just so you should know my responses to you are not to convince you, but to prevent others from becoming infected with the Zionist delusion!
You seem to keep arguing with – “what I believe”. This has nothing to do with what I believe. This is historical fact, whether you deny it or not. The arabs/muslims, like any Goy, hates Yidden, but the desire to totally destroy them comes from their opposition to Zionism.
“Besides for being untrue as many countries and rulers who dislike Jews will do something that benefits the Jews if it is in their interest and if they are pressured enough;
You haven’t put forward a good argument as to why you believe the British would have done what no other country was willing to do namely open borders of its territories to the fleeing Jews and not find a pretext to avoid doing so like the USA and every other country did.”
Again since you never studied history – you believe the Zionist propaganda as fact. The fact is that Britain didn’t put any limit on Jewish immigration to Palestine when they first took it over. The Zionist Jew Samuel was the first one to do so. He did this to appease the arabs and then the British Gov. continued to appease the arabs by their “White paper” of ’39.
The fact is Britain adopted the Balfour Declaration because they liked Jews, not like any other country ever did. This is why they put Samuel, a Zionist, in the job of High Commissioner of Palestine. If this Zionist wouldn’t have felt the need to appease arabs -there is no reason to think that the English would have done so on their own. They wanted a Jewish state in Palestine so of course they would allow immigration of Jews there.
I’m sorry that the facts don’t jive with the Zionist propaganda that have been drilled into you since childhood!
You will see from the next article where I got my Facts from.

“Samuel’s appointment to High Commissioner of Palestine was controversial. While the Zionists welcomed the appointment of a Zionist Jew to the post, the military government, headed by Allenby and Bols, called Samuel’s appointment “highly dangerous”.[5] Technically, Allenby noted, the appointment was illegal, in that a civil administration that would compel the inhabitants of an occupied country to express their allegiance to it before a formal peace treaty (with Turkey) was signed, was in violation of both military law and the Hague Convention.[6] Bols said the news was received with ‘(c)onsternation, despondency, and exasperation’ by the Moslem [and] Christian population … They are convinced that he will be a partisan Zionist and that he represents a Jewish and not a British Government.'[7] Allenby said that the Arabs would see it as “as handing country over at once to a permanent Zionist Administration” and predicted numerous degrees of violence. Lord Curzon read this last message to Samuel and asked him to reconsider accepting the post. (Samuel took advice from a delegation representing the Zionists which was in London at the time, who told him that these ‘alarmist’ reports were not justified. Samuel’s memoirs, p. 152.) The Muslim-Christian Association had sent a telegram to Bols:
‘Sir Herbert Samuel regarded as a Zionist leader, and his appointment as first step in formation of Zionist national home in the midst of Arab people contrary to their wishes. Inhabitants cannot recognise him, and Moslem-Christian Society cannot accept responsibility for riots or other disturbances of peace’.
The wisdom of appointing Samuel was debated in the House of Lords a day before he arrived in Palestine. Lord Curzon said that no ‘disparaging’ remarks had been made during the debate, but that ‘very grave doubts have been expressed as to the wisdom of sending a Jewish Administrator to the country at this moment’. Questions in the House of Commons of the period also show much concern about the choice of Samuel, asking amongst other things ‘what action has been taken to placate the Arab population … and thereby put an end to racial tension’. Three months after his arrival, The Morning Post wrote that ‘Sir Herbert Samuel’s appointment as High Commissioner was regarded by everyone, except Jews, as a serious mistake.’

As High Commissioner, Samuel attempted to mediate between Zionist and Arab interests, acting to slow Jewish immigration and win the confidence of the Arab population. He hoped to gain Arab participation in mandate affairs and to guard their civil and economic rights, while at the same time refusing them any authority that could be used to stop Jewish immigration and land purchase.[8] According to Wasserstein his policy was “subtly designed to reconcile Arabs to the […] pro-Zionist policy” of the British.[9] Islamic custom at the time was that the chief Islamic spiritual leader, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, was to be chosen by the temporal ruler, the Ottoman Sultan in Constantinople, from a group of clerics that were nominated by the indigenous clerics. After the British conquered Palestine, Samuel chose Hajj Amin Al Husseini, who later proved a thorn in the side of the British administration in Palestine. At the same time, he enjoyed the respect of the Jewish community, and was honored by being called to the Torah at the Hurva synagogue in the Old City of Jerusalem.[10]
