If we had never created that travesty in the desert, we might not have as many problems today as we do. They are an unwanted intruder in the tenement of life, over there. But, we just had to do it out of a bunch of silly religious nonsense. I've even heard some argue that the creation of Israel was an anti-Semitic move on the behalf of some Eurpoean governments, a way of inviting the Jews to leave. And, I'm begiinning to think there may be some truth in that.
Regards, Dave

They're no guest, and it wasn't religious.
When are the ME nations going to grow up? 'We're here, we're queer, get used to it.' Wait, wrong slogan. Pete

Okay, fixed it for ya.
And, Ooooooh but a lot of people sure do think the return of the Israelites to the holyland has religious significance, don't they? Dave

Yes some think it's significant, including myself, but the real immediate reason at the time is far different.
I guess you could say the western powers at the time were trying to find a solution that wasn't awful. Pete

It was done to give us a foothold in the middle east and not for humanitarian reasons.
Very little is ever done for humanitarian reasons but humanitarian reasons are always shoved in the face of the masses to "sell" the ideas of the powerful.

The "final" solution was awful, so they needed a better way? The religious aspect just made the move more palatable for the general populace to swallow. Easier for the powers that be to sell. History is full of instances where religion is highjacked for such reasons. Isn't it?
Or are we talking about protecting other "interests"? Which, well..................is getting rather expensive these days. Dave

At the time any thinking person was revolted and hoped to prevent it from happening again.
If we were doing it for various reasons you'd think we'd have put it someplace with oil and maybe water. Pete

I agree that government work in their best interests. The scope and scale of antisemitism at its' worst caused reactions though. Unless FDR was inhuman?
