On the Nakba, Normalization and Fraud in History



[ad_1]

The catastrophe that happened to Palestine and its Arab world 72 years ago was not something that could be overlooked with the passage of time or the succession of generations. Facts make history, not to deceive her. The military defeat of the Arab armies that entered Palestine, after the proclamation of the Jewish state on May 15, 1948, led to what appears to be an earthquake in the Arab world and governed its future for decades, during which the Palestinian cause it was described as the central theme of the Arabs. The shock of the catastrophe toppled regimes and thrones and changed equations and politics. Amal achieved a victory that would restore Palestine, but suffered a terrible military setback in 1967 and occupied other Arab lands.

With a military alliance with Syria, Egypt achieved a victory against Israel in 1973, and quickly wasted politics on its heroism and sacrifices. An Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty was signed in 1979, followed by similar treaties in Wadi Araba and Oslo. In the name of “evasive peace,” Egypt has been cut off from its Arab world, and Israel has expanded and devastated its settlements at the expense of the Palestinian territories, decade after decade.
Despite all the political slaughter in the Arab world, the Palestinian problem remains one of the basic measures of the pesos and the legitimacy of the states and systems. The great tragedy in history of what happened for more than seven decades is that there is now someone demanding fraud in history to erase memory and embrace the Zionist narrative of the conflict, as if it were a final acknowledgment of the military results of the first war in Palestine. The defeat suffered by the Arab armies in the Palestine war was not a surprise in itself, since it was an expression of the realities of power and the arrangements and strategies of international interests, after the Second World War, whose events took place exactly three years ago in May 1945.
In documented figures, the officers and soldiers the Jewish Agency had mobilized for the war in Palestine reached 81,000 fighters, most of whom were officers who had gained military experience in the years of World War II. It was not possible to send so many trained fighters to Palestine, unless all the green signals allowed them to move onto the new battlefield. Understandings were stable, and strategic visions for the region’s future were agreed between influential international powers, who found their opportunity to implement in the post-WWII environment.
Before the weapons of World War I fell silent in 1918, the Sykes-Picot agreement was signed to divide the region and share influence between the British and French empires, and Britain committed the following year in 1917 to what It is known as the “Balfour Declaration” to create a national homeland for Jews in Palestine.
Therefore, “he gave to those who had no promise to those who did not deserve,” according to the description given by the late leader Gamal Abdel Nasser, in a letter to the President of the United States, John Kennedy. Professor Mohamed Hassanein Heikal formulated that famous message, embodying the Egyptian vision of the time and influenced by the rules of justice established by international law, but the course of the incidents was not in line with what is legal and moral. The force squandered all human meanings in the Palestinian cause, and violated the rules of logic and international law, until we got to the point that the American ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, declared, without batting an eye, that: “The establishment of a Palestinian state will happen when the Palestinians become Canadians! ” The only meaning of the American diplomatic term, which is a settler or more Likud than Likud, is to go to hell. This excessive degree of racism contradicts international references in their entirety and international humanitarian law from the roots and incites the eradication and deportation of millions of Palestinians if the opportunity arises. The main paradox in the founding of the Hebrew state was that it appeared in the post-WWII atmosphere as a form of Western purges of the terrible tragedies of the Jews in the Nazi Holocaust. It was not only Jews affected by the Nazi Holocaust, but all of humanity paid a heavy price for delusions of racial superiority. The worst of what happened after World War II, the political and propaganda use of the Jewish tragedy estimated that other people would be uprooted from their lands, displaced in distant exiles, and the maximum level of racism would be imposed on their human existence.
At the starting line, Israel, with systematic propaganda, attracted the sentiments of large sectors of European public opinion, as it is a democratic state in a backward and authoritarian Arab world, adopting, cultivating and adopting some socialist methods in its collective colonies. , without paying attention to the racist character of the nascent state and the bloodbath it committed against the Palestinian population. .
In a moment of human disclosure, Zionism was stamped with racism by the United Nations, such as “apartheid” in South Africa, German Nazism, and Italian fascism, but then canceled with Arab negligence that denied their rights before no one would deny it. The most dangerous thing that is happening now is swapping seats, shuffling papers, and misrepresenting the facts. Palestinians who are exposed to racist tragedies are accused of “anti-Semitism”, without having the slightest role in the tragedies and greed of the Jews.
And the talk has become intentional and systematic about “Nostalgia” for Jews in Arab countries … “Nostalgia” without condemning the Zionist movement, or serious sympathy for the Palestinian victim. There are among Arab Jews who long for the old days, and this is a natural and understandable problem, but it does not fully satisfy those who have the responsibility to leave their ancient lands and the large number of them involved in the Zionist movement, and the ability of participating in acts of violence and sabotage in some Arab capitals such as the “Lavon scandal” that seized His network in Egypt is from the fifties of the last century.
It is not correct to deny the facts in the name of “Nostalgia”, some of them are real and most of them are false. One of the Israeli-speaking Israeli television stations carried out extensive research a few days ago with Jews of Lebanese origin, who spoke excessively of the homeland they left without their memories in places, friends and lifestyles that left them, but when The station asked one of the immigrant women, “Would you like to go back to Lebanon?” She replied, “No.”
There is a great connection between the two dramas aired this year by MBC – “Umm Haroun” and “Exit 7” – and the Israeli television investigation to create the general environment for free normalization with Israel, embracing the Zionist narrative of the story. and condemning the Palestinian victim.
There are Jewish personalities in the world who have risen up against Zionist racism on many stations, such as the American thinker Noam Chomsky, the investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, and the late French journalist Eric Rouleau. This fact cannot be overlooked when looking at the nature of the conflict: the Jewish religion was used in accordance with the Western strategies expressed by the Zionist movement.
Over time, the new Benjamin Netanyahu government, as announced, intends to annex more than two-thirds of the West Bank to the Hebrew state and digest the remaining Palestinian land and rights. With an Israeli translation, it is “historical justice”, therefore, with the letter. With a Palestinian translation, this is an unparalleled racist violation of its ugliness of international laws and references and the willful killing of the two-state solution and settlement process. Its consequences may lead, as the Palestinian Authority implies, to suspend the recognition of Israel and the dissolution of the authority itself.
We are close to a new moment of explosion, perhaps the most dangerous turn in the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict. Faced with flagrant blows and racial discrimination without the slightest moral protection against Palestinians, calls for normalization in drama or politics are a fool of history and a real shame that cannot and cannot happen.
