Oddbean new post about login | logout do a little more digging and you will find Balfour was an Englishman. Jews had a home. It was Europe. The English made them leave and turn into refugees long before WW2. But the English did that to the whole world, so no surprises there... This gave them access to the sea ports for commercial trade as long as they support Israel. Here we are today, not much has changed...
I’m going to give it a good dig and get back to you.
This stuff is interesting too... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_Haifa In 2018, the port processed nearly 30 million tons of cargo including 1.46 million TEUs, as well as 240,000 passengers. Israel is klling more children in months than Hitler did in 5 years. I wonder who is getting all the organs and profits on the blackmarket? But lets not forget about all the Oil in Palestine. Oh but thats a classic Anglosphere pretext for invading people :)
Here is an OK explainer :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjnBmH8b0Ko
Alright so after a couple of days of reviewing this is what I came up with: since 2014 the Israeli government has killed thousands of people. And the Palestinians have killed at most a couple hundred. This does seem to be extremely excessive and going beyond what is necessary to protect themselves.
