Not as bitter as they were at "polish" Jews (communists) that made it happen by collaborating with Soviet occupier planted in every branch of "polish" postwar communist regime ,...
62. The British Empire and the Jewish People
Dave ,   Bs.Aires-Argentina   (04.21.11)
As an Argentinian citizen, and from Jewish Faith too, I wish to emphasise that the behaviour of the Britons is NOT as of "Fair Play" that they declare, and also that they are bitter enemies of the Jewish People from the begining of the European History- Let´s look at some of the heinous acts of the British Empire: 1 - The UK has stolen almost the 40 % of the land of the former Mandate of Palestine, and gave it to the Hashemites as a "Gift", (the actual Jordan) - May be, sharing this big portion of land between the Arabs Palestinians and the Jews have had prevented the 60 years of war between them, saving a lot of blood and pain in the entire region. 2 - The Britons also prevent the Jews refugees from disembarking in the Holy Land in the midst of the WWII, sending our brothers to die in the Holocaust, or to drown in the sea. Remember the case of the S/S Struma, that sunk in the Black Sea, and the S/S Patria, and a lot of other Ships that were intercepted for "His Majesty Navy". This was a betrayal for the thousands of Jewish Combatants that were fighting along with the Brits against Germany during this period. 3 - And the worst, after the end of WWII, the Brits have sent back to PRISONERS CAMPS in CYPRUS and in GERMANY a lot of Jewish Holocaust's Survivors, that were seeking refuge in Palestine. The most ironic fact was that the Germans didn't agree to custody the Camps, and the British Army was charged with the task of keeping the Jewish Prisoners, a big SHAME to them. 4 - And in the Case of Argentina, since 1833, the UK has maintained BY THE USE OF FORCE and unlawfully the Islas Malvinas (AKA Falkland Islands, for the English spoken people), that belongs righfully to Argentina. The UK is rejecting all posibility of negotiation in this issue, despite a lot of calls to do it by the UN General Assembly and the USA (The last call was the last year). Another fact in this saga: in the Falklands War (1982) in wich the UK fought against my country, the Brits brought a NUCLEAR SUBMARINE (The "Conqueror") to a De-Nuclearized Zone of South América (All the countries of the Region signed the No Proliferation Treaty of Nuclear Weapons). This submarine sunks unlawfully the warship "General Belgrano", that was at that time OUTSIDE the Field of Operations Waters, sailing toward the Continent, in a heading opposite to that to the Islands. This infamous act, a War Crime, kills instantanously more than 300 people that were aboard the ship. This horrible act was ordered directly by Margaret Tatcher, despite the opinion on the contrary of the High Rank military officers in London.- And the worst case, just nowadays they are STEALING the oil, gas, and natural resources that lies in the waters around the Islands, that rightfully belongs to my country, Argentina. - Not to mention the wicked acts carried out by the British Armed Forces against innocents civilians in India, before the Independence of this big country. THRE ARE DEPENDABLE INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTATION that proves all the facts mentioned above. There is indeed a very long list of the Felonies and Acts of Piracy that the British Empire has committed around the world, since several centuries ago to the present time. A lot of this wicked acts were commited against the Jewish People. Sadly for this past time powerful Empire, in the not so distant future the Seal of the Queen will be replaced by the "Crescent Moon", the Justice System will be replaced by the "Sharia Law", and their capital will be renamed "Londonistan". Good luck with your fate, British People. For all the written "UT SUPRA", I think that the behaviour of Menachem Begin was plenty justified, besides the fact that Israel was fighting to save the Jewish people that were Prisoners of the infamous "Junta Militar" that were governing Argentina in that sad past times. Please YNET don't censure this post, and put it in the talkbacks! AM ISRAEL CHAI.
63. Dave #62 on correction
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (04.21.11)
"1 - The UK has stolen almost the 40 % of the land of the former Mandate of Palestine, and gave it to the Hashemites as a "Gift", (the actual Jordan)" It was 76.5% of the land, not 40%
64. #59 - and the list goes on...
seadog1946 ,   LowerHarbor, NYC   (04.21.11)
after ww2, nazi scientists were brought to the USA during operation paperclip... during operation seashell, Israel supplied weapons to Iran...
65. # 48
Birdi ,   Israel   (04.21.11)
she not only reads the Zionist press, she bombards us daily with her rubbish!
66. the bbc became anti-semitic at the time
sweeter than honey ,   far wawy   (04.21.11)
above and beyond the usual anti-israelism, and continued to ripple and re-assert at times. the attitude towards the french, also suppliers of aircraft and missiles to the argentinians was more respectful. i really do think the bbc and others find it impossible to treat a jew as an equal, which was manny's demand, (i would refer to the caning and hanging of british service personnel in retaliation for same perpertrated to irgun etc.) though of course british jews etc., might have a national affinity, which might be respected. the demand of equality really shocked the british establishment then, but not now i think. what intrigues me is that though manny arranged the sale of skyhawks to argentina (with usa compliance for end-user certification) the argentinians were never sold, or knew how to make short-fuses for iron bombs (necessay for low level drops). most of their munitions never exploded because they had insufficient air-time to arm. laughable.
67. 62 - It doesn't matter that they were commies ...
split ,   US   (04.21.11)
that they were merciless blod thursty guevarist commies and first in line to force communist system upon Argentina just like they did in Soviet Bloc Countries after WW II ? ["besides the fact that Israel was fighting to save the Jewish people that were Prisoners of the infamous "Junta Militar" that were governing Argentina in that sad past times"]
68. To # 63 Gee
Dave ,   Bs.Aires-Argentina   (04.21.11)
Sir, you are right ! thanks a lot for your reminder, I was cheking my sources, and the correct figure of the territory of Jordan versus the Mandate's territory, is almost twice the percentage that I posted.
69. 63 - "and gave it to the Hashemites" ,...
split ,   US   (04.21.11)
And rightly so , you can't deny that the Semitic Hashemites got more common with that part of the World than the light-skinned , blue-eyed , red-haired, funny dressed Khasars.
70. To # 63 - Split-USA
Dave ,   Bs.Aires-Argentina   (04.21.11)
Please, you anti-jew, stop with the twisting of the History - I am a Sephardic Jew, and my relatives, my Jewish Askenazi and Sephardic friends an I myself DO NOT HAVE blue eyes, white skin and so on as you are wrongly stating. We are SEMITES, with a little brown hue in our skin, and , the most important fact, we share the same Haplo - Type in our DNA. The last researchs in the DNA of Jewish people, have found that there is a common type of Haploids between the Sephardi, Azkenazi, and Mizrahi jews, AND NO COMMONALITY AT ALL between us and the Western and Eastern Europeans, and the Central Asians. SO YOUR LIE REGARDING THE "KHAZARS" IS TOTALLY AND PURE B**L -S**ET. SO STOP WITH THE TALE OF THE "KHAZARS". - It is only an hypocrititical DIRTY GAME to DELEGITIMIZE the right of the Jewish People to live in ISRAEL Oh, I forget one fact, we the Jews have more DNA concordance with the Arabs of the Middle East and North African white people than to the European and Asian white people. So don't meddle in our bussiness. . PERIOD
71. #70 - blue eyed blondes... try, Tzipi Livni.
(04.21.11)
72. #22 - oh, I believe they're getting that message...
William ,   Israel   (04.22.11)
after they donated billions to "Palestinians" over the years. As the Beatles song goes - "can't buy me love".
73. #52 - because they do so to target civilians, destroy a Stat
William ,   Israel   (04.22.11)
The Falklands war was over ownership dispute, and was between two armies of sovereign nations. No civilians were targeted, no civilians were used as human shields. and no matter the outcome, the ultimate goal wasn't the destruction of the other person's State and its people. Even a child knows the difference between terrorism and a war.
74. #57 - also declared by the EU, and 89% of Americans
William ,   Israel   (04.22.11)
terrorists are those who target civilians in order to extract a political outcome. The anti-tank rocket targeting a school bus pretty much fits that description, don't you think so?
75. #67 - but they are Leftists, Split....
William ,   Israel   (04.22.11)
and despite the typical blood thirsty nature of such despotic types, the Left especially in Europe, love and support them blindly.
76. 75 - Are you sure you got my question right ?
split ,   US   (04.22.11)
Forget that the dude is all over the map peddling issues that got a zilch to do with Argentina , he's trying to portrait a vicious blood thirsty Jewish guevarist commies as an innocent victims of junta - Give me a break ,.. Here's a quote from his post ,... ["besides the fact that Israel was fighting to save the Jewish people that were Prisoners of the infamous "Junta Militar"]
77. Book: Begin armed Argentina during Falklands War
James ,   Bradford, England   (04.23.11)
I think you are all being rather hatefull... Our two countrys are supposed to be allied yet you go behind our back, arm our enemies then laugh about it. Dont come crying to us next time you need any help with anything, go ask America and see how far their incompetence gets you...
78. Good! The British have armed Israel'e nemies since day dot.
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (04.25.11)
This gentile Brit also loves Menachem Begin. May he rest in peace and be resurrected, Israel needs a another Begin.And for the record the Falklands are the Malvinas and we have no business there.
79. Reality check
Paul Higgins ,   Vancouver, Canada   (04.26.11)
And never forget that if the British had not fought Nazi Germany from the very first day of WW2 right through to the ultimate allied victory, Hilter would have been able to complete his final solution. And come to think of it Joseph, we stopped your little island being taken over by the Nazi's as well
80. Best book on Begin
Sheryl Abbey ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (04.26.11)
For the best, insider account of Begin's prime ministership, don't miss: The Prime Ministers by Yehuda Avner.
