What YOU are attempting to deny, however, is that the Zionists were the first to employ large-scale and organised violence.

I can appreciate that you actually believe that the Arabs ganged up on Israel and started the war because that has been the lie spread by Zionists , and their supporters, over the past sixty years. Only now, with the advent of the internet and the mass of information available to the public at large, is it possible to compare versions of events side by side. The Zionists have controlled most Western media up until now.

So, if you still want to believe that the Arabs started the 1948 war then nobody can stop you. However, if you want anybody else to believe it with you then you're going to have to provide credible evidence and that, having looked for it myself for the past four years, you will be unable to do.

You haven't been paying attention. I provided you the proof that the Arabs started the war in the form of a UNSC document as well as the statement of Jamal Husseini,the Arab Higher Committee's spokesman:

Quote:

Security Council Official Records, S/Agenda/58, (April 16, 1948), p. 19.
Jamal Husseini,the Arab Higher Committee's spokesman, told the Security Council on April 16, 1948:
"The representative of the Jewish Agency told us yesterday that they were not the attackers, that the Arabs had begun the fighting. We did not deny this. We told the whole world that we were going to fight."

and

Security Council Official Records, Special Supplement, (1948), p. 20.
On February 16, 1948
"Powerful Arab interests, both inside and outside Palestine, are defying the resolution of the General Assembly and are engaged in a deliberate effort to alter by force the settlement envisaged therein. "

How much more proof do you need? Denial is more than just a river in Egypt, it seems.

It isn't true , you see, and the hasbara has crumbled away.

I just proved that it was true using the words right out of the Arab Higher Committee spokesman's mouth.
I'd say that the fox is in the bag and heading to the barn to be skinned.
