Commenting At The Washington Post

At this Washington Post blog, Obama Says U.S. Must Be More 'Honest' With Israel by Michael D. Shear, I found this comment:

Fact--The early Zionists, including Menachem Begin, were the ones who got the terrorist ball rolling with their terror attacks in British Palestine. Israel has radicalized the entire Middle East by their denial of Palestinian's basic rights. There was no Hamas or Hezbolla until Israel invaded Lebanon and degraded the Palestinians in the occupied territories territories. Put yourself in the Palestinians shoes and you would probably be a complete nutcase, which apparrently you are anyway.If the shoe was on the other foot, the Jews would have had a state next to the state of Palestine decades ago.

objective11 | June 1, 2009 10:06 PM claims as a "Fact" that "The early Zionists, including Menachem Begin, were the ones who got the terrorist ball rolling with their terror attacks in British Palestine".

Sorry to disappoint you but in March 1920, Arabs attacked and wiped out a Jewish village call Tel Hai, the first act of ethnic cleansing there. In April 1920, Arabs led by their religious leader (sound familiar?) rioted in Jerusalem and murdered seven Jews. In August 1929, 135 Jews were slaughtered all over the country, almost 70 in Hebron and the centuries-old Jewish community was ethnically cleansed. It continues throughout 1936-39 with 530 Jews killed. I could go on with the litanty of terror.

Oh, Menachem Begin arrived in Mandate Palestine in April 1942.
