Let’s imagine for a minute that I decided to cause a little mischief. Let’s say I started a rumor that Arabs in Jaffa were beating up little old Jewish women for kicks and that it would be a damn good idea if a group got together and went and beat up a few Arabs in Jaffa. Now lets say that happened and 67 Arabs were killed and another 435 Arabs were saved because a few good Jews helped them.
And lets say this became a regular sort of thing and that the authorities eventually said to the Arabs there (who’d been there for years) it would be better if they just moved out because their presence there, among the Jews, was inflammatory.
Well that’s exactly what happened in Hebron some 80 years ago. Though, obviously, it was the Arabs killing the Jews and the authorities in this case were the British.
Is it any wonder that most of the Jews, who had lived continuously in Hebron for literally thousands of years, left.
Which is why the BBC can now write the following:
Hebron is home to about 160,000 Muslims, but some 500 Israeli settlers live in the centre of the city with a heavy Israeli security detail.
Well yes, BBC, the British policy of appeasing Islamic violence forced the Jews to leave. It’s actually worse than that and I’ll quote from Wikipedia (not because it is a good source, but because it is generally so skewed anti-Israel that if this is in it, it must be true!)”
The survivors were evacuated from Hebron by the British authorities. Many returned in 1931, but almost all left again during 1936–1939.[4] It also led to the re-organization and development of the Jewish paramilitary organization, the Haganah, which later became the nucleus of the Israel Defense Forces.
So the reason the BBC can now write that there are hardly any Jews in the ancient Jewish biblical city of Hebron, home of the Tomb of the Patriarchs, is that the British were complicit in allowing Islam to force them all out!
So just remember that when you’re watching Israeli soldiers having a bit of a laugh in Hebron!
