Lib Dem British MP Castigates Israel

I advocate for everybody who is discriminated against, and that includes many minorities in the US, gays and lesbians, and women.

There was a massacre of Jews in Hebron (then, and until 1967, a part of Jordan) in 1929. It was not, however, a case of the Jews being wiped out. According to the Jewish Virtual Library, which can hardly be described as biased against Jews, 67 people were killed, and the hundreds of survivors were relocated to Jerusalem.

In my opinion, your analysis is specious (sounds correct, but is not), since it leaves out who could not live at peace with who. Cause and effect.

Many of the 435 Jews who survived were hidden by local Arab families.

If you look at my link to the wikipage on the real Hebron massacre, as opposed to the one that only exists in Advocate's fevered imagination, you would find this sentence.

So there were, and still are, Jews and Arabs who can live at peace with each other. I'm not surprised you ignored this, because, like Advocate, in your attempt to sully all Palestinians, you're only interested in spreading half truths and misinformation.

Up until 1948, the Arabs and Jews lived in relative peace in Hebron. That is, until the Arabs massacred every one of the 157 Jews living there.

List of Irgun attacks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main article: Irgun
During the 1936–1939 Arab revolt in Palestine against the British Mandate of Palestine the militant Zionist group the Irgun carried out sixty attacks against Arabs and British soldiers.[1] Irgun was described as a terrorist organization byThe New York Times,[2][3] the Anglo-American Committee of Enquiry,[4] prominent world figures such as Winston Churchill[5] and Jewish figures such as Hannah Arendt, Albert Einstein, and many others.[6] The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs describes it as "an underground organization."[7] The New York Times at the time cited sources in an investigative piece which linked the Haganah paramilitary group to the Irgun terrorist attacks such as the King David Hotel Bombing.[8]
Irgun launched a series of attacks which lasted until the beginning of World War II. All told, Irgun attacks against Arab targets resulted in at least 250 Arab deaths during this period. Following is a list of attacks resulting in death attributed to Irgun that took place during the 1930s. The Irgun conducted at least 60 operations altogether during this period.[9][10][11]

You really don't know the history of Palestine.

The Irgun policy was based on what was then called Revisionist Zionism founded by Ze'ev Jabotinsky. According to Howard Sachar, "The policy of the new organization was based squarely on Jabotinsky's teachings: every Jew had the right to enter Palestine; only active retaliation would deter the Arabs; only Jewish armed force would ensure the Jewish state".[2]
Two of the operations for which the Irgun is best known are the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem on 22 July 1946 and the Deir Yassin massacre, carried out together with Lehi on 9 April 1948.
The Irgun has been viewed as a terrorist organization or organization which carried out terrorist acts.[3][4] In particular the Irgun was branded a terrorist organisation by Britain[5] and the Jewish Agency.[6]

Go read the list of killings, plenty of Arabs were being killed, too. You're a liar and a racist bigot, Miller, and don't try to pretend to any righteousness or virtue.

See the linked material, which covers the 157 Jews massacred in Hebron in 1948.

Advocate...that reminds me of a question I have asked of you several times.
