British politicians who waged war in Ireland used the same tactics and forces in Palestine

Arthur James Balfour, then Britain’s foreign secretary and the declaration’s signatory, had previously served as chief secretary of Ireland. He was best known for ordering police to open fire on an 1887 land reform protest in Mitchelstown, Co Cork. Resulting in three deaths, the incident earned him the sobriquet Bloody Balfour.

Frog, don't do it. Don't carry that Scorpion across the water on your back.

Israel recognize Ireland as United Kingdom

President Truman announced the difficulties of establishing Israel in Palestine, over 75 years ago.
Do you recall that?

Spain, Ireland, and Norway are also neutral states durring WWII

[lah]

Odd choice. Not sure Palestine is able to create a state with a govenment, an economy and infrastructure. Also, Muslims would like to see them (western culture, christians) gone, the same with Jews. Still think in the end the people of the region need to work this out themselves. Outsiders can't insist on statehood or that people share. Palestine in itself is made up of conflicting tribes.

Like America or Isreal gives a damn what they think. Why don't they take in the Palestinians in then since they care so much

[bbaff]

Who is going to represent this country? PA, Hamas, IJ, some other group?

[kellypatterson]

Why does Israel have a right to exist while Palestine does not?! The hypocrisy!

[monologic]

With the history of muslims in Spain, you would think Spainish politicians would know better. But then again, they are politicians, and Spainish politicians are easily bought. IMO

Giving a terrorist organization “legitimacy” while Taiwan a thriving democracy that’s leading the world in semiconductor chips only has less than 10 countries that recognize it.

[questionknow]

How can countries outside of the actual countries decide what is best for the countries they are not apart of? Even saying it out loud confirms how crazy it is. lol

[winstonsmith]

I wonder if YT will take down this video

[youlikeitiloveit]

Do they recognize Taiwan as its own country? Are they willing to declare that for everyone to hear?


Or are they spouting bs not because they think it’s right but because because they aren’t scared of the repercussions?

[Michael-ofgg]

Why don't they take refugees if they love them so much?
