Anti-Israel "Balfour Project" cant quite find "Palestine" stamps that don't make them look stupid

The "Balfour Project" is an attempt by a bunch of British Israel-haters to force Great Britain to apologize for the Balfour Declaration.

They illustrate their site with the first stamps used by Great Britain in Palestine after they occupied it.


So what are these stamps?

The first set of four stamps look like this:



Note that it doesn't say "Palestine" or anything close. It says "E.E.F" which stands for the British Egyptian Expeditionary Force which occupied Palestine in 1917. The  E.E.F. stamps were valid in Palestine, Cilicia, Syria, Lebanon, and Transjordan.

Nothing "Palestinian" about them.

The other stamps are variants of this one, but with an overstrike that says "Palestine" in English and Arabic that Great Britain started in 1920 with the Mandate. In Hebrew it says "Palestina E.Y." where the "E.Y" stands for Eretz Yisrael, the Land of Israel.



Palestinian Arabs didn't like the idea that the "E.Y." were on the stamps. They countered that they wanted their own national name on the stamps as well in Arabic if the Jews were allowed to place the "E.Y" after their name.

And the name they wanted to print was not "Palestine."

They wanted the stamps to say ""Suria El Jenobia"  -Southern Syria!

This was all recorded in the Palestine Bulletin of October 13, 1925.



Israel-haters keep trying to make "Palestine" look like is was a real Arab country. And they always fail, spectacularly.

Yes because the only people that refered to themselves as Palestinians were the Jews, being as it was the British Mandate for Palestine

As seen it was not the Arabs that classed themselves as Palestinians. That only happened in the 1960's.

Oh dear, yet another gaff by sassy

You missed the worst she has posted before, on Jewish banks and coins.

It was priceless mate.

This is how far those who are of hate will go, to make up a false history.

The Arabs are indegenious to the the Arabian Penisular.



The Arabs colonized the Holy lands and through Arabization saw the lands changed dramatically throughout the Middle East and North Africa.

Its astounding how we rightly condemn Western Colonialism, yet the Far Left are silent of Arabization.

What on earth is a "Palestine"??

Is it a fruit?

Well, there's a Palestine, Texas. Kind of a shithole town in the eastern piny forest region. I wonder where they got that name from, maybe the Bible? The back of a cereal box? Your mom?

But of course, there's truly never any way of knowing anything, even your own name, as The Devil, You Know so aptly proved that one time.

Speaking of Texas, and your mum, it never dawned on me before but I like wide open spaces. We should all “get jiggy in fields of gold”, as Nicko says.

I love a golden field...

You do have to be careful where the stalks go !

No, it’s the place where your mum dropped you as a baby and you landed flat on your head!

Sexy, can't remember why I said that, in fact I can't remember what I said yesterday !
