Which refers to religion.
Problem is, true to the author's intent or not, "...slay the infidels wherever ye find them..." Holy Qur'an: Sura (chapter) 9 Verse 5
is deemed by those brandishing, flailing their scimitars not merely to distinguish supernaturalists from others,
but as posted in #98 used to justify murder between Shiah and Sunni Muslims.
And the Holy Bible is equally clear: "turn the other cheek", a passage routinely refuted by a separate Biblical passage
"an eye for an eye".
It is as fundamental as the logic of the syllogism R5.
Major premise / Minor premise / Conclusion
If either premise is wrong, the conclusion is unreliable.

Bal·four (bălfr′, -fôr′), Arthur James First Earl of Balfour. 1848-1930.
British prime minister (1902-1905) who later served as foreign secretary under David Lloyd George (1916-1919). In 1917 he promised British support for a national homeland for Jews in Palestine, provided that the rights of existing communities would be safeguarded.

A win / win.
Nations not wanting them can deport them.
And Israel can welcome them. Didn't we try something similar after the Gulf War, with the Kurds?
R5:
The purpose of law is human benefit. We like to think of this as a rule, yet it is in some circumstance a guideline.
In 1948 it's not difficult to imagine finding a permanent homeland for Jews was in context of post-war Earth, a good idea.
Over 8 Billion with a B humans infest this solar-system. We're fast running out of nomansland to offer Peoples in need. Liberia? A success?
I personally thought integration & assimilation viable. Trump's war on DEI has crippled that process. To benefit whom?
The Balfour Declaration was in WWI, to get Jewish help.
But clearly it could not give Jews any rights to Palestine because England did not own Palestine, the Ottoman Empire did.
And a "Jewish homeland" just means facilitated immigration, not sovereignty.
This was explained by the Churchill Whitepaper of 1922.
{...
Unauthorized statements have been made to the effect that the purpose in view is to create a wholly Jewish Palestine. Phrases have been used such as that Palestine is to become "as Jewish as England is English." His Majesty's Government regard any such expectation as impracticable and have no such aim in view. Nor have they at any time contemplated, as appears to be feared by the Arab deegation, the disappearance or the subordination of the Arabic population, language, or culture in Palestine. They would draw attention to the fact that the terms of the Declaration referred to do not contemplate that Palestine as a whole should be converted into a Jewish National Home, but that such a Home should be founded `in Palestine.' In this connection it has been observed with satisfaction that at a meeting of the Zionist Congress, the supreme governing body of the Zionist Organization, held at Carlsbad in September, 1921, a resolution was passed expressing as the official statement of Zionist aims "the determination of the Jewish people to live with the Arab people on terms of unity and mutual respect, and together with them to make the common home into a flourishing community, the upbuilding of which may assure to each of its peoples an undisturbed national development."
It is also necessary to point out that the Zionist Commission in Palestine, now termed the Palestine Zionist Executive, has not desired to possess, and does not possess, any share in the general administration of the country. Nor does the special position assigned to the Zionist Organization in Article IV of the Draft Mandate for Palestine imply any such functions. That special position relates to the measures to be taken in Palestine affecting the Jewish population, and contemplates that the organization may assist in the general development of the country, but does not entitle it to share in any degree in its government.
Further, it is contemplated that the status of all citizens of Palestine in the eyes of the law shall be Palestinian, and it has never been intended that they, or any section of them, should possess any other juridical status. So far as the Jewish population of Palestine are concerned it appears that some among them are apprehensive that His Majesty's Government may depart from the policy embodied in the
Declaration of 1917. It is necessary, therefore, once more to affirm that these fears are unfounded, and that that Declaration, re affirmed by the Conference of the Principle Allied Powers at San Remo and again in the Treaty of Sevres, is not susceptible of change.

Clearly the Balfour Declaration does not remotely even hint at the creation of Israel.
A homeland is a place where you can immigrate to, but not a place you get to claim ownership of land without paying for it like the Zionists did.
The whole point of the Diaspora Decree of 136 AD is for Jews to integrate with other cultures, in order to atone for sins.
Going to Palestine and taking land illegally is in total contradiction to the Diaspora Decree, and desecrated 2000 of atonement by faithful Jews who were greedy invaders.
