If the Jews wanted to restore their country, where did they choose the place where they would establish their state? The Jews had a lot of thought at that time. At that time, the international community's advice to the Jews was mainly on the following areas: South America, Northeast China, the Sinai Peninsula, and Uganda in East Africa. Other than that, it's Palestine.
If Israel were to establish a state in the rich Africa, would it be better than in the desolate Middle East?
The reason why the Jews, who have wandered for thousands of years, were able to establish Israel in the Palestinian region was actually a kind of transaction, and the Jews who had nowhere else to go had no choice but to return to their homeland; of course, the earth is so big, they have to go back to the Middle East to establish a state? The Jews also thought about establishing a state elsewhere, but for various reasons they still returned to Palestine to establish a state.
In 1903, Britain, the hegemon of the world at that time, discussed with the leaders of the Jewish Zionist movement: Aren't you Jews rich, but Britain has too many colonies, and if you pay for it, I will give you a piece of land, and you will be done with the establishment of the country! So the British suggested that Uganda in Africa be sold to the Jews, and Uganda is quite a big place, 13,000 square kilometers, which is much larger than Israel now. The Jews were skeptical, so they sent people to Africa to find out, and found that Uganda was good, but it was too hot, and it was inland, there was no outlet to the sea, it was inconvenient, and there was a lack of water, and the living environment was really average, so they did not agree to the deal with the British. Later, the British pointed out several places, but the Jews were still not satisfied and insisted on establishing a state in Palestine, but the British could not help it, because the situation in Palestine was very complicated, and it was not possible to establish a state if you wanted to.
The Jews are so determined to establish a state in Palestine, it is because there is Jerusalem, the holy land of Judaism, the spiritual home of the Jews, Jerusalem is the birthplace of the Jews, and it is also the holy place of Judaism, and the Jews have always believed that Jerusalem is the homeland given by God to the Jews, it is a gift from God, and the Jews must protect this gift well, otherwise it is a betrayal of God, a very serious sin, and the spiritual need is very strong, and the Jews are of course most willing to return to the place where God has given them, so the Jews are so insistent on returning to Palestine, even if that place is a place where war is raging。
All ordinary Jews have this idea, and the leadership of your Restoration movement cannot fail to take into account the mood of the people. Jews don't want to go to Africa at all, what kind of place is Uganda, I don't know it at all, Africa is so hot, it's a recognized remote corner, and it's a neighbor to Uncle Black, it's really out of identity, and the ghost is willing to go! How good is Palestine, it's God's gift to the Jews, there is a wailing wall, and when you pray, you can communicate with God through the wailing wall to soothe the pain of your soul, and there is the sea next to it, how cool the sea breeze is, you don't have to choose, returning to your homeland Palestine is the only choice for Jews.
If such a nail is planted in the Middle East to control the oil of the Western countries against the Islamic countries, it is quite advantageous for the Western countries to control the oil, after all, the Western countries have developed industries and need a lot of oil, and it would be better to have the Jews as accomplices. So the British issued the Balfour Declaration , allow Jews to migrate to the Palestinian area to issue visas, as a result, a large number of Jews have poured into Palestine, the number has reached 600,000, this number is too much, so the ethnic contradictions in the Palestinian area are fierce, there were Arabs there before, and now so many Jews are rushing to grab the land, so how to do it, the Jews must be killed, so the ethnic massacres in the Palestinian area continue to break out, Jews and Arabs have been vendetta against each other, even the British do not let go, the British finally did not recruit, can not control, just let go。
After World War II, the United States took over the hegemony of Britain, and the Jewish consortium found the U.S. government, and the United States naturally needed the nail of the Jews, so it supported the establishment of the Jewish state, and in 1947, the United States took action, through the United Nations, forcibly divided the Palestinian region into two countries, the Jews accounted for 55% of the land, obviously the Americans were partial, and Israel was established in 1948, and the Jewish dream of statehood was finally achieved. It's just that since then, the war between the Jews and the Arabs has been endless, everyone wants to kill each other, and they have fought several times, but Israel has the thigh of the United States, and Israel has withstood it, until now, but the matter is not over, the United States is also happy to see the Palestinian region unstable, and supporting Israel is not just letting Israel stir up trouble and pull hatred, Israel plays the role of a thug very well.
Israel can establish a state, to a large extent, it is the British and American Western countries behind the push, otherwise it is difficult for the Jews to establish a state, so rich Jews realize that money may not be able to do everything, but also have a helper, the difficult task must have the help of cattle people, rely on their own do not know the year of the monkey, especially such a huge task as the founding of the country!
If Israel had been established in Africa, it would not have achieved what it has today
Israel's founding and rise are the result of a great power game and a result of geopolitical struggles. If we had stayed away from the Middle East, Israel would not have been favored by all countries, and there would be no Israel today.
Some people think that Israel's small size and lack of resources limit its development, and if it were replaced by a vast and resource-rich Africa, it would be bigger and stronger.
In fact, this view is one-sided, and Israel is strong in two aspects: one is its geographical location, which allows it to receive the support of major powers, and the other is science and technology. This is evidenced by the fact that it not only feeds its own people but also exports it abroad with its very limited and barren land.
