Whether or not Israel maintains (or perhaps improves) its status and international respect as a state is unpredictable.  But a &#8220;settlement will come&#8221; and it will be interesting to see if that settlement proves to be one that is Just Right &#8211; irrespective of any false histories.<\/p>\n<p><em>* Latin   &#8220;False in one, false in all.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/853-topics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/topics.gif\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/853-clips-credits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/clips_and_credits.gif\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you found this presentation valuable please consider supporting us:<br \/>\n&#x1f9e1; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.me\/justrightmedia\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">PayPal<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In his March 4 essay entitled Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus* &#8211; The Chronicle of Zionist lies and their implosion foreseen, Salim Mansur concludes that the Balfour Declaration which created the state of Israel has no legal standing.
