Everyone is wrong about Israel-Palestine

05-29-2021 • https://www.rt.com by Darius Shahtahmasebi

There are trillions of tonnes of recoverable gas lying underneath the disputed waters off Gaza, Israel, Syria and Lebanon. And the Israelis want to make sure they alone control and profit from it.

Few topics rile people up on both sides of the political aisle more than the Israel-Palestine question. It is without doubt one of the most – if not the most – explosively divisive issues on the planet.

For example, when I have criticised Saudi Arabia's criminal bombardment of Yemen, I have never once even contemplated fearing a backlash of people accusing me of being anti-Islamic or labelling me an Islamophobe. (Sure, Saudi nationals critical of its government's actions may have to avoid entering into their local Saudi consulate upon invitation, but that's for a different reason.)

Yep, EVERYONE is wrong...THE STATE OF "PALESTINE" QUIZ 1) WHEN WAS THE STATE OF "PALESTINE" FOUNDED AND BY WHOM? 2) WHAT WERE ITS BOARDERS? 3) WHAT WAS ITS CAPITAL? 4) WHAT WERE ITS MAJOR CITIES? 5) NAME AT LEAST ONE "PALESTINE LEADER" BEFORE ARAFAT? 6) WHAT IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE "COUNTRY OF PALESTINE"? 7) WHAT WAS THE PREVALENT RELIGION OF THE "ANCIENT COUNTRY OF PALESTINE"?8) WHAT WAS THE NAME OF ITS CURRENCY? 9) CHOOSE ANY DATE IN HISTORY AND TELL WHAT WAS THE APPROXMATE EXCHANGE RATE OF THE "PALESTINE" MONETARY UNIT AGAINST THE GERMAN MARK, GB POUND, JAPANESE YEN, OR CHINESE YUAN ON THAT DATE? 10) SINCE THERE IS NO "COUNTRY OF PALESTINE" TODAY, WHAT CAUSED ITS DEMISE AND WHEN DID IT OCCUR? 11) WHY DID "THE PALESTINIANS" NEVER TRY TO BECOME INDEPENDANT UNTIL AFTER THE DEVASTATING DEFEAT OF INVADING ARAB STATES IN THE 1967 SIX DAY WAR?
