(6,187 posts)Last time I looked the casualty exchange rate was approximately 100 dead Palestinians for every Israeli. And that number almost certainly more than doubles if you include those Palestinians who have died prematurely over the decades, due to lack of access to decent medical care.
Strikes me that if YOU don't agree with that sentiment, then perhaps Israel should not exist at all, since without the continental resistance forces "throwing stones" to slow and partial occupy Germany's attention, it's highly doubtful Britain would have survived until the US entered the war. No Britain, no liberation. Germany gets the Middle East and at the very least Northern Africa, and quite possibly prevails against Russia.
Which would have pretty much reduced the Jewish population of the world to those few in the Americas and Australia.
That's where you'd be, if the occupied, foreign ruled nations of Europe had simply rolled over and meekly accepted occupation and German colonisation. If they hadn't fought back with sticks and stones, and home made guns and bombs. If they hadn't risked their own lives: hiding Jews from the Germans; smuggling Jews out of Europe.
