(1,417 posts)Thank you for your authoritative dismissal of my claim ........Obviously having lived in the 1920s, you and your family will know the true facts. It is a pity you couldn't bring yourself to say how big you THINK the Jewish minority in Palestine was.
If you look up ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_history_of_Palestine ) you will see a breakdown of the Jews in Palestine as follows:
Year..... Jews..................Total inhabitants................% Jews
1800.... 7,000................275.000............................2.5%
1890....43,000................532,000............................8.0%
1914....94,000................689,000............................13.6%
1922....84,000................752,000............................11.2%
Now, do tell us where YOU get your fantasy facts from?...........Hearsay?
