Emergence of the Jewish State: A Succession of Successful Improbable Events!
1. How was it possible for “foreign” Zionists to “grab” land that had been under Muslim control for centuries? There was no military invasion.
2. How could Herzl and the Zionist Congress set their eyes on someone else’s land? Even if they did, it should have had no meaning since they were speaking about land two thousand miles away…..
4. How could a minority of Jews take over a country just because in Basel some Zionists had a dream?.........
6. If the Jews had come at any time and found in place any type of ethnic or national or state-like structure (with a parliament, or flag, or army), the Zionist Congresses’ declarations would have been valueless and would have had little or no practical impact. …………
………..A summary shows the following succession of improbable events: (1) the first Zionist Congress makes a declaration in Basel that has nothing to back it up; (2) twenty years later, in the middle of World War I, the British make a declaration to Jews, who were not an official party to the war; (3) that declaration depends on the outcome of the war; (4) the gamble of the British succeeds and they reorganize the Middle East; (5) the League of Nations adopts the Balfour Declaration.
………..What prevented the Palestinian Arab population from coalescing into one nation and forming a state like Egypt or Turkey before or during the four centuries of Ottoman rule? Both religious Jews and Islamists believe that the real implication was not what but Who prevented it. …
………then the principal issue faced by Israel is that it is trapped at the epicenter of an intra-Islamic problem. Islam is torn by the profound Shia-Sunni conflict and by political Islamists who appear to have the upper hand. Israel just happens to be caught in the middle. A consequence is that Israelis have no reason to transform all that external hatred into internal divisions. Such divisions turn into discord and disunity that are baseless since the main issues are in fact intra-Islamic……….
