Israel won Judea and Samaria in a war they didn’t start. Arab nationalists are pissed they tried to destroy Israel and lost.




I dunno. I was a kid back then, but didn't the six day war start when Israel attacked Egyptian forces in the Sinai?

Hoping people see this comment when they think Israel are anything other than a war-mongering nation.

But they aren't a war mongering nation and the comment you are replying to specifically points this out - Arabs started the six days war war in 1967.

You're quite eager to skip over the Nakba in your accounting.

That was (supposedly) in 1948, not 1967.

Now you're really eager to deny the Nakba ever happened.

It didn’t. Arab league told arabs to leave the new country while they destroyed it. There were some notable skirmishes but no widespread forced evictions like the Arab nations did to the Jews. That’s why there’s 2M Israeli arabs.
