So kind, so kind. Kinder than anyone else, some say. Beautiful. Now move on!

As the article from the Jewish Virtual Library shows:-From 8% in 1882, the Jewish percentage of the population of Palestine/Israel had reached 32% by 1947, and suddenly in 1948 it became 82% in a year. How kind of the Muslims to move out. Would Britons do something so self-sacrificing?https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jewish-and-non-jewish-population-of-israel-palestine-1517-present

Mr RoseIn my opinion you are right and Mr Ainsworth is antisemitic in my mind as is made clear to me by his uniquely one sided ahistorical anti-Jewish posts.I wonder what early life experience made him so ?I posed the same question to Ms Holliday who has yet to reply.Further, the way you describe how he posts is also absolutely accurate.He is like the little kid in the school playground when some shouting match erupts.Standing well at the back yet keeping it going by lobbing in spurious quotes and comments, usually diversionary and of no relevance, then ducking aside.However, it could be that Mr Ainsworth IS actually a child, sitting in his bedroom relishing as he obviously does the one handed posts he makes......

There seems to be a denial of the Nakba here.

I wouldn’t bother posing questions to David Ainsworth on the subject of Israel, John, because he either a) responds with a question b) posts a long tendentious quotation from a biased source or c) ignores the question altogether and starts another thread critical in some way of Israel. His post on this thread can only be described as anti-Semitic since it implicitly denies the right of Jews to migrate to Israel ( a land from which their ancestors were expelled two thousand years ago) while offering no criticism of other historical migrations e.g. the Arab conquest of North Africa, British colonisation of North America etc.

Mr Ainsworth'YOU From 8% in 1882, the Jewish percentage of the population of Palestine/Israel had reached 32% by 1947, and suddenly in 1948 it became 82% in a year.'ME Perhaps the genocide of the European Jews influenced this ?ME What territory do you define as Palestine/Israel ?ME Where did the Muslims move to ?More deafening silence from you 😁
