Revisionist BS. Little Tich Apr 2016 #2

Except he's talking about what happened in 1947 that led to 1948. aranthus Apr 2016 #3

Please read the Wikipedia article again. Little Tich Apr 2016 #36

Perhaps you should re-read it with an eye to the thread topic. aranthus Apr 2016 #43

Perhaps I'm reading the article differently. Little Tich Apr 2016 #60

Which article? aranthus Apr 2016 #61

Funny. One of your favorite, most trusted historians is a revisionist: Ilan Pappe shira Apr 2016 #7

Pappe may be a "revisionist", but he's not a Revisionist: Ken Burch Apr 2016 #31

He's a hack & fraud with zero credibility. He has admitted he doesn't deal in facts. n/t shira Apr 2016 #32

I think your interpretation is incorrect. Little Tich Apr 2016 #37

Pappe admits he's driven by ideology rather than facts. He's a propagandist.... shira Apr 2016 #39

Yes he did what he did...but that simply means HE was a bastard. Ken Burch Apr 2016 #6

So this should be surpressed because you've decided the motive for posting it ? King_David Apr 2016 #9

It is historically important, but it needs to be acknoweledged Ken Burch Apr 2016 #14

So you think you should whitewash it ? King_David Apr 2016 #17

No, not whitewash it, but place the blame where it belongs: Ken Burch Apr 2016 #18

Your duty here is to protect the reputation of the Palestinian people's? King_David Apr 2016 #21

No, to stand against collective punishment of those living today Ken Burch Apr 2016 #23

The problem in the Mideast is that *everyone* has both historical, and refreshed, excuses villager Apr 2016 #27

What then, indeed? Ken Burch Apr 2016 #30

Thanks, Ken. I've given up hope, actually, that either side will stop "Otherizing" their "enemies." villager Apr 2016 #35

Israel is actually beating the water problem, defying drought conditions.... shira Apr 2016 #33

And the comments section gets right back to my post. villager Apr 2016 #34

It doesn't apply to Palestinians, apparently: Little Tich Apr 2016 #38

The fear(soon realized) of mass dispossession and exile were one of the major reasons Ken Burch Apr 2016 #48

I don't approve of their tactics, but what they were offered in '48 was too small to be a real state Ken Burch Apr 2016 #22

The '47 partition plan was more a state than what the Palestinians are asking for today.... shira Apr 2016 #24
