The Balfour Declaration.

I have just watched the BBC 2 programme on The Balfour Declaration.
I have arrived at precisely the same logical point previously reached when I look at the Arab-Israeli conflict.
The first terror and invasions were largely caused by the Palestinians.
Israel was reactive in its calculated unpleasantness. Israel made the situation worse by settling on disputed parts of The West Bank. They cannot, however, be blamed for taking their security seriously by building a 700 kilometre partition wall!
Clearly, he intransigence of Hamas is why the Palestinians are in such a dreadful state.
I just watched Dr Mahmoud al-Zahar, co-founder of Hamas, categorically state that his group will not accept Israel's right to exist!

What else is there left to say? The Israelis have committed wrongs but Hamas ensures that the Palestinians DO NOT hold the moral high ground.

A Verse of Great Encouragement.
