Oh, and since you’ve decided to try to take the discussion to another thread, I’ll respond to it here.

First, you are not “everyone”. Believe it or not you are only one person.  
Second, I have not said you were stupid. I will note that your complaint about being ignorant of the topic when time and again you’ve shown that you don’t know the basic facts is rather uncompelling. Just like you have yet to retract your fictional timeline when the Arab armies invaded months before the partition was to take effect, but because the UN is magic, in your alternate universe they really invaded on the very day it was supposed to take effect.  
Third, your claim that I’ve called you a liar is, shall we say, ironically less even a little bit true.
