Understanding the Middle East in Less than 5 minutes
Here is a YouTube video by gil, one of my avid readers, which quickly and succinctly explains the history of the Jews in less than five minutes:
What the video doesn't cover: There are 47 Muslim-majority nations with a combined land area of 29,685,657 square kilometers (1), almost ⅕ of the entire land mass of the planet.
Teensy-weensy Israel occupies 21,642 sq km or almost 1/70th of 1% of the Earth's land surface. But according to Muslims, this infinitesimal, teeny, tiny sliver of once mostly barren desert, is too much of a land grab by Jews.
If you pick up a pencil you will quickly determine that Muslims squat on 10,612 times as much land as the Jews in Israel.
In all the land of the Islamic faithful, in all the surface of the Earth that they have subjugated by sword against the infidels over the centuries, in all of their oil-filled kingdoms, Muslims cannot abide a single Jew standing on one square meter of land for every 10,612 sq meters occupied by Muslims.
Meanwhile Liberals, Muslim apologists, and defeatist, anti_Israeli Jews whine that there is no land on the entire planet for displaced Arabs except by taking most of it away from Israel. They demand Lebensraum for Muslims. Where have I heard that before?
When the Ottoman Turks lost The Jordan after WWI, half of it was to be a Jewish homeland, and the other half was for the Arabs. Today, the Arabs have 81% of that land and the Jews the other 19%. But we are told that that is unfair. Arab Muslims for all their dislike of pigs, are such greedy little oinkers.
