Meh...

North Korea began to piss of China almost just as much as it does with USA and South Korea.

Remember...China gets something out of South Korea with trade...North require aid and is constantly creates drama that threatens to destabilize the region.

I think I remember some officers being charged with trying to overtrhow the new kim-jung Un.... If it wasnt just paranoid purges....I'd bet the Chinese were behind it.

Before Israel existed yes, after the Balfour declaration.

Tension began and escalated between the locals and an influx of immigrants many of them with a zeal about starting the new homeland.

Imagine why, when you and your family have lived there your whole life then people are streaming in with claims of nationalist irredentism.

Shit were bound to hit the fan, and there were ethnic violence going back and forth going on in the entire interwar period.

Al-Husseini, came from this period, Irgun came from this period and Lehi.

So, if you are to drag shit up from history to fling....don't be picky.

Oh, and the first victim to be killed during all this...was Jewish.

He was killed by a Jewish nationalist because he tried to organize cooperation and reached out to the existing groups.

People who lost their homes are still alive, people who live in the occupied territories are still alive, the scores and scores of refugee, trapped in limbo are still alive.

Their homes are in OCCUPIED TERRITORIES! Not Israel's territories.

You're grasp on history, both 18th cent. and modern are appalling.
