Shamir’s ‘Pro-Palestinian’ Strategy to Resist Partition

Shamir's 'Pro-Palestinian' Strategy to Resist Partition
Why did the United Nations feel so threatened by Prime Minister Shamir's initiative to provide permanent housing for Palestinian refugees?

Israeli Prime Minister Yitzḥak Shamir identified Western efforts to divide the Jewish homeland as the single greatest danger threatening the State of Israel.

Shamir also identified the “Palestinian Question” as the primary weapon being used by the United States and its allies to give moral justification to their efforts at partition. This led the prime minister to adopt a counterintuitive strategy for resisting the two-state agenda.

  • One may guess whether the Sternists fight against British Empire has positively influenced Joseph W.STALINs decision in 1947 to support Israels independence ?
    Not TRUMAN but STALIN was Israels “founding father” in 1948 and without military supplies by USSR+CSSR no IDF-victory in 1949 ! But no thanks for that by BEN-GURION&Co later on ….
