You forgot to quote this too: "Through Plan Dalet, Zionist forces had already, from 1 April down to 14 May, conducted 8 of its 13 full-scale military operations outside of the area allotted to a Jewish state by partition, and the operational commander Yigal Allon later stated that had it not been for the Arab invasion, Haganah's forces would have reached 'the natural borders of western Israel.'" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_Dalet Zionists were already attacking and forcibly removing Palestinians prior. |

This discussion thread is now over four days old and people are still engaging in inflammatory back-and-forth over historical facts or interpretations of historical facts.
This re-affirms what we see too often with these kinds of topics; that the people who are the most motivated to participate in them are the most attached to their pre-established understanding of the topic and mostly want to keep beating others over the head with it. This is not what HN is for and it destroys what it is for.
We want HN to be a place where people with different perspectives can discuss difficult topics like this in the spirit of curiosity and come away having learned something.
That's not possible when people respond to opposing arguments with barbs like this:
When called for with hard data that shows how preposterous that claim is
This is a blatant lie
This is an absurd lie, that’s either deeply rooted anti semitism or just blatant propaganda.
Seems like you are fully into the zio nazi alternate reality
Please step away from this discussion, take a moment to have a read of the guidelines and make an effort to observe them in future.
