Queen Elizabeth II has indeed visited an area sometimes called "Palestine", for the West Bank and East Jerusalem were under Jordanian rule until Jordan chose the wrong side in the 1967 war. Israel pleaded with Jordan to stay out of the war. Jordan ignored those pleas and along with Iraq, they attacked West Jerusalem. <br /><br />NO IFS, BUTS OR MAYBES! <br /><br />Jordanian and Iraqi forces attacked Israel on the second day of that war. The IDF then pushed the invading Jordanian and Iraqi armies back out of West Jerusalem and as in all wars since the beginnig of time, the IDF continued pushing their enemies back until they had secure positions to defend. That is where we are today.<br /><br />Suddenly "Palestine" was created in the former Jordanian lands. THERE WAS NO PALESTINE UNTIL AFTER THAT DEFEAT OF THE JORDANIAN AND IRAQI ARMIES.<br /><br />However, as Her Majesty has visited Jordan, it can safely be said she has visited a place which in parts now likes to call itself Palestine. Ergo she has visited "Palestine".<br /><br />Now, that still leaves Israel off her visits list. Why?

Exactly what is that traditional British support for Israel? Does it date back to handing out guns to the Arabs while banning Jews from bearing arms, or just looking the other way while Arabs slaughtered the Jewish inhabitants of Hebron and other places?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29459499.post-27474794427222816592010-11-26T01:22:14.259+02:002010-11-26T01:22:14.259+02:00Another country missing from the list is Palestine...Another country missing from the list is Palestine. The Uk also has also enjoyed traditionally very strong ties there, dating back well before the Israeli state was even established.<br />She is a sensitive and precious figurehead of the British people and probably feels the same way William Hague and the vast majority of British people do about apartheid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
