FAKE NEWS AND ISRAEL
Academia and media professionals, journalists and diplomats, governmental and international organizations are constantly rewriting the history of present day Israel and ancient Israel. They lie constantly to credit the Israelis with all the abhorrent crimes possible. It could be the beginning of the term “FAKE NEWS”, although the term lying fits as well.
The Israelis are a nation, now and before. What about the Palestinians? In a 1977 interview with a Dutch newspaper Trouw, PLO executive committee member Zaheir Muhsein said” the Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing the struggle against the state of Israel and for Arab unity. In reality today there is no Palestinian people. if the Arab states attacking Israel had won they would have divided the land where Israel and the west bank Arabs now exist amoung themselves. In 1937 Auni Bey Abdul-Hadi, a Syrian Arab leader told the British Peel Commission, “there is no country as Palestine. There is no Palestine in the bible. Palestine is alien to us, it is the Zionists who introduced it. Hamas minister of the interior and of national security Fathi Hammad made it clear nothing has changed since 1977 and admitted that the professed Palestinian identity is a fake and used for the tactical and political purpose of defeating Israel. The Palestinians come from all over the middle east. Yasser Arafat was an Egyptian.
The world is obsessed with creating a Palestinian people and so are the Israelis. How can you have a Palestinian state without a people, and the Israelis want a two state solution so they do NOT rule the Arabs. Surprisingly Golda Meir was the last Israeli prime minister to question the Palestinian peoplehood. It is never brought up presently. When the P.A. erected a museum to the Palestinian people, there was nothing to fill it with. Abbas would never admit that the Arabs entered the land as colonizer when the Jews had been there for 2000 years. Throughout the centuries with many invaders the Jews were always there and fought forced exile, slavery and murder at the hands of the invaders. If the Arabs had accepted the two states promulgated by the U.N. I believe the Palestinian Arabs working with the Israelis would have their own successful nation alongside Israel. The Israeli people will never expel the Palestinians because in truth they have been there for centuries and deserve a state as do the Jews.
