Justice is Not On The "Pal." Plate

The American Conservative magazine gets it wrong, again.

Its editors write:-

The task before the Israelis is not to defend themselves against aggressive neighbors but to give justice to the Palestinians already in their midst—to suppress terrorism without suppressing civil liberties and human rights, which only leads to more bloodshed.


That is oh so wrong.

The Arabs of Palestine were offered "justice" many times but refused all efforts and offers because their goal was not anything for themselves but rather nothing for the Jews.

From pre-state partition plans (1937, 1939 & 1947), from the removing of 75% of the original territory intended as the Jewish national home for a fictitious "Palestinian Arab people", to Rhodes Peace Agreements in 1949 with the armistice lines that were never honored but crossed thousands of times by the fedayeen, the precoursers of the latter-day Fatah, to the June 1967 offer to return almost all the territories refused at Khartoum, to the Autonomy Plan rejected and to the Oslo Accords that the Pals. subverted.

They constantly used terror, whether in riots and pogroms during the Mandate period, led by the Grand Mufti who ended up in Berlin broadcasting for Hitler's radio, to the fedayeen, the fatah and the Hamas.

All of their nationalist effort and enterprise is negative. Nothing positive. It is all against the Jews, against the Zionists, against Israel.

And these "conservatives" claim to be knowledgeable.
