Ottomans. Palestinians never had autonomy here. Jews weren't refugees those years. They just migrated here as part of the Zionist effort to get to Israel. Arabs were tribalistic, they would kill each other over territorial intrusions, you think they would like Jews? The only Jewish refugees were Jews that got attacked by Arabs.I don’t really see that he made anything up. It’s a fact that Jewish migration to Palestine started in 1870s under Ottoman rule that allowed them in as refugees. No cases of any violence against Jews from that wave of refugee exodus until the British took over after WW1.
As far as what Roald Dahl is writing, there is some truth in it, no? The jewish people, especially the religious nationalists, less so the reformed, have a kind of strong disregard for the goyim. The chosen people theory makes you look down on others by default. It’s a sort of nationalism that is religiously enforced.
The rest of the quotes are contextual. Being anti-Israeli gets you the accusation of anti-semitism, which I think is unfair. And credit goes to American Jewry- they have been hyper successful in America. No doubt because they have some admirable qualities. That they exercise that power to limit anti-Zionist views is evident to anyone who has a brain here in the US.
That the Arabs started these clashes needs to be proven by you. Seems like the clashes started after WW1 after the British took over. If the Arabs would have started it, or would have been disposed to it, why didn’t they do it pre-WW1 under Ottoman rule. Actually, from accounts one read, looks like the Jewish militants started them actually.
You think this only started under British rule lol, this isn't the case
