Etnisk udrensning af jøder
Mens den israelske hær foretager etnisk udrensning af jøder fra Gaza-striben, er Mr. Andersson faldet over en glimrende artikel om tidligere tiders ditto. Den er godt nok fra før Iraks befrielse, men det ændrer jo sådan set ikke på fortiden:
A total of 586,269 Jews from Arab countries arrived in Israel3 with at least 200,000 emigrating to France, England and the Americas. Including their offspring, the total number of Jews who were displaced from their homes in Arab countries and who live in Israel today is 1,136,436, about 41% of the total population. At least another 500,000 currently reside in France, Canada, the United States, Latin America and Australia. ..
It is not generally known that the number of Palestinians who fled the newly formed State of Israel was surpassed by the number of Jews who were forced to emigrate from Arab countries. ..
When the State of Israel was established, the Jews in the Arab countries became hated outcasts in their own lands, terrorized, imprisoned and often banished. This led to mass immigration of Jews who sadly realized there was no future for them in the land of their birth.
Derefterfølger en gennemgang af de arabiske lande, land for land:
1. Iraq
Less than a year after Israeli independence was declared in 1948, repressive measures were taken in Iraq. Thousands of Jews were imprisoned or taken into "protective custody" on charges of "Zionism". Jews applied in large numbers for exit permits to Israel, but legislation was quickly passed freezing Jewish bank accounts and forbidding Jews to dispose of their property without special permission. Jewish emigrants who succeeded in obtaining exit visas were allowed to take only fifty kilograms of luggage per person. Soon after, a decree was issued blocking the property of all Iraqi Jews who, by leaving the country, "had relinquished their nationality" and Jewish property was sold at public auction. A year later, laws were passed, restricting the movements of Jews, barring them from schools, hospitals and other public institutions, and refusing them import and export licenses to carry on their businesses. The program was so effective, that by the middle of July 1950 more than 110,000 Iraqi Jews had registered for emigration. ..
The overwhelming majority of the population was relocated to Israel, as a result of intensified anti-Jewish actions which started with the UN resolution on the partition of Palestine in 1947 and continued till after the cease fire with Israel in 1949. Hundreds were killed and imprisoned during several anti-Jewish riots. Jewish property was confiscated and Zionism, the wish to return to the Land of Zion, became a capital crime. Jews were thus forced to flee and to leave all of their belongings behind. Between 1949 and 1952, 123,371 Iraqi Jews were airlifted directly to Israel in what became to be known as "Operation Ezra and Nehemia".
Ikke at De nogensinde får det at vide i medierne - Palæstinenserne er jo de stakkels ofre, der skal ynkes og beskyttes. Ikke jøderne.
Men spekulerer over hvordan verden havde set ud hvis araberne istedet for at spærre de arabiske flygtninge fra Israel inde i lejre og lade FN (og derigennem også Israel) føde på dem faktisk havde taget hånd om dem og integreret dem?
Hvis den Israelske regering samtidig havde holdt de jødiske flygtninge fra den arabiske verden i transit-lejrene (der heller ikke i Israel var særligt hyggelige steder) og nægtet at integrere dem, så kunne vi måske idag se "The Liberation Army of Reuben, Manasseh and Gad" foretage indfald i Jordan for at befri de gamle jødiske lande i Transjordan-landet, og samtidig give deres tidligere arabiske plageånde en over snuden.
Nå, men det er jo fiktion. I virkeligheden er vi for tiden vidner til at Israel bukker under for terror, og spiller terroristerne det bedste kort i hænde: et bevis på at terrorismen virker som våben.

Lige på kornet. Bemærkede at MrAnderson i sin debat på Liberator stødte ind i en person, der godt nok mente en masse om Israel og palæstinenserne, men forresten aldrig havde hørt noget om de fordrevne jøder fra den arabiske verden...
Det undrer jo uheldigvis ikke - uvidenheden om alle andre synspunkter på konflikten end den venstrefløjs-flæbende er så lammende, at langt de fleste mennesker end ikke begynder at stille sig selv spørgsmålet om sandheden mon kunne være en anden.
For mig at se havde den mest humane løsning klart været den, Tyrkiet og Grækenland gennemførte i 1920erne: mellemstatsligt vedtaget udveksling af mindretal mod erstatning til de forflyttede.
Så havde vi været seks årtiers terror, fire krige, to borgerkrige og en udveksling af ballistiske missiler foruden.
Nå ja, tre borgerkrige, hvis man tager den begyndende Palæstinensiske borgerkrig med.
