In a nutshell
Located in the Judean Hills south of Jerusalem, Hebron is the site of
the oldest Jewish community in the world. Jews have lived in Hebron
since 1735 BCE. Two thousand three hundred and seventy three years
later, the Arab Muslims arrived. As usual, the Muslims built their
Mosques on Jewish and Christian holy sites. That is the genesis of the
present-day conflict over Hebron.
In 1929 Arab hordes attacked the Ancient Jewish community of Hebron,
massacring, raping, and pillaging, exactly as IS - ISIS - ISIL is doing
today to the Christian communities of Syria and Iraq. No, nothing has
changed. Those Jews who were not massacred fled their family homes of
millennia. Arabs took over the Jewish properties. All this happened while the British authorities turned a blind eye - just as the West is doing today while Muslims annihilate Christian communities in N. Africa and the Middle East.
In 1948 Jordan
illegally took over Hebron which was later, in the Six Day War of 1967,
retaken by Israel. Today Arabs still occupy most of the Jewish
properties.
Generally, since the '67 war Jews have been trying to re-establish their
community in Hebron. Even with original deeds of ownership in hand,
their efforts have been curbed, hindered, and bound due to pressures put
on the Government of Israel by foreign powers (Eu, USA, U.N., Russia)
whose economic and strategic interests are cohesive to the fraudulent
Arab narrative. Nevertheless, a few Jewish properties have been recovered and re-inhabited by
Jews.
