A non-revisionist history of Palestine

With all the misinformation out there, it's good to know the facts.

Among other things, the UN Human Rights Council (a body with poor reputation to begin with) passed a resolution which requires a report on alleged human rights abuses by Israel at every council session. Just to add insult to injury, the resolution refers to Israel as "occupied Palestine". Huh? Yup. The UN Human Rights Council is operating on the apparent assumption that Israel is not a legitimate state.

Kevin (friend not brother) sent me a timely link that may help make sense of this. Regardless of how people may try to rewrite history, this article explains how Palestine really came into existence.

I have recently grown interested in learning more about how the whole Palestinian/Israel thing started, so did some net research. I found an article, which like some of the posts below the article point out is a summary that is sure to leave valid points out, however, of the many sites I visited looking for a "synopsis" of how the situation became to be what it is today, I found this one to be the best.

If you already know all this stuff, ignore, if not, I know I found it educational and thought you might as well.
