Re: Palestinian Islamic Jihad fires rockets into Israel, tanks advance in Gaza

How much war preparations went on by Italy in order to invade Libya in 1911 was completely stunning – and they did invade Libya and then they were thrown out of Libya by the British and the French after World War II and in 1951, the Libyan people gained their independence. Now compare that with how the European Jews arrived in Palestine from the ghettos of Eastern Europe, a very poor and a very hungry people who did not have the means to invade Palestine but the British made it possible for them to enter Palestine! And today, they are still there where they do not belong because these are a completely foreign European people.
