Even the Israeli government now admits that this didn't happen. We are still awaiting concrete confirmation of your other claims, too.

Gandhi also suggested the Jews commit mass suicide to shame the Nazis into stopping the Holocaust. He simply did not understand the inhumanity of the Nazis.
Gandhi's tactics worked because of the British public, who did not have the stomach for atrocities like Amritsar. Mandela's tactics worked because of the rest of the world, and the boycott.
Israel, one of the richest countries in the world, has two million stateless, desperately poor people within its borders, people who have no hope at all for any better life.
Taking everything away from a couple of million people and giving them nothing to lose is like duct-taping a kettle and putting it on the stove, or leaving piles of gunpowder all over your house.
