A comprehensive and truthful narrative of History, and of the present as it unrolls, would inevitably generate objectives and strategies so sharply focused and so clear, as to Liberate the Discourse, thereby creating the first steps to future success.
Applied to the Palestinian suffering, it appears that despite the fact that the horrific crimes committed against Palestinians and against their country are extremely well documented, Palestinians are struggling with little to no success since seven decades to stop the killing machine which took their land, ethnically cleansed them and continues to commit massacres generation after generation.
Palestinian Solidarity Movements have been active for decades, yet have failed to stop the genocide, and failed to save Palestinian land from being robbed and turned into Jewish only settlements, and failed to save the lives of tens of thousands who have been killed by the murderous Jewish collective that calls itself “Israel”, who continues the massacres worse than ever.
Having such comprehensive damning evidence to the crime, yet failing to stop its chronic corrosive continuation, and failing to bring one single criminal to face prosecution is mind boggling.
We really need to stop for a moment and ask ourselves this vital question:
Why this epic failure. Why, despite having evidence and documentation in such great number and such horrific nature, that it would easy to indict and to prosecute the perpetrators, and lock them behind bars forever, and yet they remain unpunished, Why?
Equipped with just a modicum of critical mind, a tiny scratch to the surface, would suffice to any person concerned with the defense of Palestinians’ Rights, to become aware of problematic issues which hinder the Palestinian discourse, weaken its potential and render it impotent.
My humble attempt to identify the causes resulted in the following:
Our movement has been infiltrated, manipulated and betrayed by steering it in a manner which would always PROTECT the perpetrators and their interest while chanting “we support Palestine”
Our movement has been framed with inbuilt elements of distractions, so that it would continue to criticise and pretend to fight the crimes committed against our people, without ever offending the occupiers let alone causing serious damage to their criminal entity or harm to their interest.
Four walls/ red lines have been drawn to our supporters, by hijackers and infiltrators, which keeps them running like hamsters in a mill, but never actually accomplishing anything.
Their purpose is to block intellectual discussion, obstruct rational and scholarly debate, filter vital information and serious research that examines four main issues which if freely examined would result in ultimate exposure then prosecution of perpetrators:
1) The problem of the Ideology of Jewish Supremacism
2) The problem of Global Jewish-Zionist Networking and Lobbying
3) The problem of idolizing the Holocaust (used as a tool to further Zionists aims)
4) The problem of the use of False Flag operations
a) Under the pretext of fighting racism and anti-Semitism, the hijackers aim to obfuscate and cover up any study or scrutiny of the ideological core of Jewish supremacy and racism.
b) Under the pretext of fighting racism and anti-Semitism the goal of the hijackers is to block and prevent serious investigation of global Jewish Zionist networks and organizations in their respective Jewish communities worldwide, and their vital role in supporting, defending and protecting the criminal Zionist entity.
c) Under the pretext of the uniqueness and exceptionality of Jewish suffering, they aim to justify the need of the perpetual existence of a “state for the Jews”, a “homeland for the Jewish people” in Palestine, an “Israel”, a “safe-haven” where the “eternally persecuted” Jews can finally call “home”, where they can exercise their “sovereign rights” to be a “nation”; be it as it may, an invented one, and be it as it may at the expense of another nation and the almost total extermination and dispossession of another people through wars of conquest and genocide. They call their omnibus solution, a Secular state for ALL its citizens. Hence preparing the ground for the soft, cultural, factual and permanent TAKE OVER of Palestine (early Zionists called that type of soft takeover, Cultural Zionism).
d) Under the pretext of avoiding “conspiracy theories”, we are forbidden from examining the role of FALSE FLAG operations, a specialty “perfected” by Mossad, and thus fail to identify real culprits and point our accusations at the wrong target.
e) Under the pretext of the uniqueness and exceptionality of Jewish suffering, our detractors want to impose on Palestinians to give up their rights to resist and defend themselves, they want Palestinians to abandon the idea of LIBERATION and reinstatement of their stolen land, and to impose on them the acceptance of sharing permanently their land with those who oppressed and dispossessed them for decades, those who have systematically violated, desecrated and destroyed the beloved land of Palestine.
How this works on the ground, on basis of a few case-study incidents that are quite revealing:
FIRST CASE
Some years ago, I was invited by a group of anti-Zionist Jewish “friends” to attend an alternative celebration of Seder.
About 40 people attended the event, all were Jews (Zionists and anti-Zionists) except myself and another Palestinian.
A few days after the event, I received the attached letter, sent to my home address, using my maiden name.
Having lost my beloved husband only four months prior to the incident (20/12/2005), and living alone with my children, I was concerned because of the threatening tone of the letter and because it came from a Zionist who apparently knew my address, so I went to the police.
The police took the matter seriously, because of the threat and racist nature of the letter, and decided to interview the entire group of people who attended the Seder event, as it is evident that the author of the letter was one of the guests.
The Jewish anti-Zionist group who invited me were mortified with the prospect of their guests being “offended” if interviewed by the police, they asked the police NOT to interview their guests and to leave it to them to ”investigate” and try to find out who is the person who threatened me and my kids.
Months passed by, during which they managed to put the police investigation on hold, while they kept evading, postponing and claiming they couldn’t find out who send the letter, until eventually, I gave up and dropped the case.
Many years later, while narrating the events to a friend of mine, I almost choked on my own words, as I realised the seriousness of what happened.
Evidently, this incident made it clear to me that the so called Jewish “friends” were more concerned about “offending” their Jewish guests than the serious risks to my life and my children’s lives!
This type of conflict of interest and disloyalty within the movement is what we have to deal with.
SECOND CASE
In January last years, I wrote an article in which I suggested a bloodless peaceful solution, offering world Jewry (specially those who oppose the Jewish state), a way with the potential of solving the century-old injustice and end it peacefully, once and for all, without a drop of blood.
The proposed solution could have delivered Jewish-Zionists out of the mess they have created, and would have paved a way in which Jewish anti-Zionist supporters would have the golden opportunity to prove their loyalty to Palestinian cause.
They had the chance to prove their mantra, that world Jewry cannot be blamed for “Israel” or its crimes.
They had the chance to demonstrate through practical and meaningful ways their willingness to challenge their communities and put their weight against what is still a majority of Zionist Jews to create a paradigm shifts, by creating a NEW JEWISH FUND to raise the billions necessary to, at first buy the stolen and confiscated Palestinian property, and secondly transfer it back to the rightful Palestinian owners.
Redemption: A Challenge to World Jewry
In this article, I offer a realistic non-violent solution, which has the potential to set everyone free, and to solve the century-old crime of rape of Palestine.
* Palestinians get their land back;
* Anti–Zionist Jews get to prove to the world their claim that most Jews are not Zionists, thus innocent of the crimes of “Israel”, and that anti-Zionists are the “true representatives” of world Jewry, and that they mean business and their loyalty is indeed with the oppressed;
and
* World Jewry gets redemption for decades of their support to ruthless crimes.
It’s is a solution which can right the wrong, restore justice, brings peace, compensate the wronged, and even enrich the Jewish-Zionist settlers.
My solution invites Jewish progressives to fund-raise from their own communities in order to buy back what their brethren have initially stolen, and currently occupy. Thus, this solution offers a permanent remedy for healing of the holy land and its people, once and for all.
I sent the article to almost all anti-Zionists outlets and organizations, which I know of, however, unsurprisingly, my suggestion fell on deaf ears… ZERO response was their answer, not even acknowledgment.
Except for “Jews for Justice for Palestinians”, who responded by accusing me of being “outrageously racist”
The response of “Jews for Justice for Palestinians” has caused activist Elizabeth Morley to remove her name as a signatory from JFJFP list, as explained in the following exchange of emails (which, with sincere apology to Elizabeth Morley, I feel obliged to reveal because of the nature of topic and its influence on the Palestinian struggle):
THIRD CASE
In order to understand the role of Jewish only organization like for example “Jews for Justice for Palestinians”, enough to have a closer look at their website and their declared aims to see how conflicting their aims are with the Palestinian narrative and aspirations.
CONCLUSION
Jewish anti-Zionist supporters who join the pro-Palestinian groups in order to pacify Palestinians and to feed into the lie that “peace is possible” with an expansionist supremacist entity, and the delusion of “let us coexist” with a GENOCIDAL collective, are well advised to go to the camp of AGGRESSORS and Pacify their fellows.
If they are really sincere, they should LEAVE the Palestinians ALONE to LEAD their own struggle for Freedom and Liberation, go to the lion’s den and focus on how to DEFEAT the terrorist entity from within, (by working as eyes and ears FOR Palestinian resistance) and from outside (by sabotaging the global Jewish-Zionist network, which feeds the beast).
Rather than taking over pro-Palestinian groups and turning them into an ADL style organizations whose main objective is for fight “antisemitism” and to excommunicate those who question the primacy of Jewish suffering.
Instead of ostracizing outspoken Palestinians, and silencing their voices which echo RESISTANCE and LIBERATION, they should take the beast by its horns and and challenge their own communities inside Palestine and across the globe.
Such a role not only it would prove their sincerity, accelerate the defeat of the beast but it’s also much more dignified for the preservation of their own honesty, morality and humanity.
They must STOP DEFENDING “Israel’s rights”, and instead, try to PACIFY their own PEOPLE whether those who occupy Palestine or their Jewish-Zionist international supporters.
They should LEAVE PALESTINIANS to LEAD their OWN STRUGGLE for LIBERATION and work on their own people.
People who care about the rape of Palestine and the plight of Palestinians, should once and for all realize that any advocacy of “israeli rights” to stay in a land they are attempting to utterly ruin, or to “coexist” with a people they are attempting to annihilate, such advocacy is betrayal of Humanity.
Once and for all, there is no coexistence with criminals of that level.
FULL LIBERATION is the only way to right the wrong of a century of Crimes Against Humanity.
Our future is NOT entangled with theirs, because they as a collective have caused the near destruction in an entire region of the world for almost a century in ever greater murderous genocidal criminality. Individually and collectively, Jewish “Israelis” are accountable for past and ongoing Crimes Against Humanity. Legally and Historically, they will have to bear the consequences. The “golden times” of warmongering, land theft and assassination of children will soon be over.
We need ACTION that brings CHANGE not just collecting donations or symbolic gestures which makes one feel good, while leaving us stagnating, like hamsters running till exhaustion in a treadmill only to stay where we are.
It is exactly like coming to help building a demolished house only for it to be re-demolished again and again and again and again; useless “action” of alleged “resistance” only to deplete our time, energy and resources and achieve NOTHING on the ground but the illusion of “victory”.
If they really want to help then be our guest, but go all the way and do the REAL STUFF to bring CHANGE.
The REAL STUFF is NOT a “Kum ba yah” song, oh let’s hug each other and lecture about “coexistence”, then miraculously fantasise that their bullets would molest our babies less aggressively, bombs would fall softer on our heads or our decades of excruciating pain of exile would suddenly taste sweeter.
We do NOT need to be “taught” how to be “humanists” with those who are tearing our bodies to pieces, poisoning our food and water, murdering our babies as we speak!
What we need is REAL ACTION of goodwill and sincerity that proves to us that they are genuinely sorry for what their fellows have done and willing to put things right, at whatever cost, i.e:
a) Total disengagement with the Zionist entity. Stop promoting the so called their “legitimate claims” and “rights of security”. Abandon the idea that such terrorist entity has any legal or “legitimate claims” or “rights”, and think of ways to stop the continuous illegitimate illegal flood of Jewish invaders who continue to pour into occupied Palestine.
b) Work within the International Legal system to help RETURN all STOLEN LAND and PROPERTY, help fund REPARATION, RESTORATION and COMPENSATION process and think of legal ways to facilitate the RETURN of ALL refugees.
c) Participate, collect information and help facilitate Law-suites against “Israeli” criminals whether soldiers, settlers or international collaborators, promoters and financiers.
d) Work within their own Jewish communities world wide to bring change in their SUPREMACIST attitude and criminal behaviour (for financial and moral support of criminals)
e) Work through legal avenues to REVOKE ISRAEL’S UN MEMBERSHIP. The racist genocidal occupation entity, which was in breach of UN Charters, which has violated and defied more UN resolutions and charter principles than any other. This illegitimate entity has no moral or legal ground whatsoever to be a member of the UN. Its membership is a disgrace on the face of humanity and a mockery of International Law. Israel’s UN membership should have never happened in the first place.
f) A little humility would go a long way: sit in the back seat when it comes to LEADERSHIP of pro-Palestinian organizations, listen to and echo the voices of Palestinians but do NOT hijack it, do NOT replace it with your own. LEAVE Palestinians ALONE to devise their OWN ASPIRATIONS, GOALS, VISION and STRATEGIES.
Our ultimate aim to Full Liberation of Palestine remains stronger than ever, and as it were this aim is aligned with utmost foundational aspects of International Law. Yet infiltrators, sayanim and other, are working day and night to delete LIBERATION from the consciousness of Palestinians and their supporters, by implanting their “doves” at the heart of our Palestinian activist movement, inside and outside of Palestine.
To contribute to the liberation of the discourse at first, our supporters may wish to expose the dirty trick consisting of limiting the choice to a false dichotomy, “one state, two state”. Palestinians and our supporters may wish to bring back on the table the concept of Full Liberation, as the only fair solution, and what is more the only long term feasible solution. We may want to be determined and forceful, by voicing Liberation amidst all circles of supporters, hammering it until it becomes again natural and evident, the way it is in reality.
Once supporters and public opinion start to listen to the Palestinians and their acute grievances due to a slow genocide committed against them, once supporters absorb the humanitarian concept of Liberation of Palestine, as a fair and necessary step to Peace and Prosperity in the Middle East and beyond, only then can Palestinians regain their faith in this western humanity who has abandoned and betrayed them.
Only then can Palestinians cease to succumb to the murdering machine aiming at pacifying them into obedient slaves.
Only then will solidarity groups cease to fall for the poisonous lies brought to them by the Hasbara agents who talk “peace” while their fellows plan more theft and more murder.
Reviving the concept of Liberation must be accompanied with all types of support possible, including education, spreading awareness, call for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions, humanitarian aid, financial support, and above all, defending the right of Palestinians to DEFEND themselves and explaining to supporters and others that Resistance under such chronic murderous and brutal occupation is not only a legitimate right, but also a duty.
The first step of LIBERATION of Palestine starts by LIBERATING the DISCOURSE which begins with giving Palestinians a platform and LISTENING to their narrative.
