Could you list those 5 occurences?

Maybe he can't/won't, but I can:

1948
1956
1967 (Six Day War)
1973 (Yom Kipper War)
Lebenon (sorry, don't know the year off the top of my head)

The saddest part is that if the Palestinians had accepted the proposed British partition in 1948, they would have had their own state then.

But even up to the latest peace proposals where they had a real chance for a homeland (1992), they have rejected peace, instead continuing to fight to rid Palestine of the Zionists.
