The Palestinians have been a much abused people for almost a century.
Ever since the first zionists slithered into the region from Europe, the area was marked for disaster.
The toxic and malign Jewish-zionist presence in Palestine is the chief cause of the disorder, violence, and upheaval there.
The zionist subjugation and continuing ethnic cleansing of the indigenous Palestinian people paved a bloody path to future US interventions which plague the Mideast to this day.
And it does no good trying to rationalize the existence of the temporal and tentative zionist state as a proper, and just outcome of the holocaust; for zionist Jewish terrorist gangs have been running rampant throughout Palestine for some decades before the so-called holocaust even occurred.
It also does no good for Jewish-zionist propagandists to justify the existence of the zionist state by bringing up the existence of the ancient kingdoms of Israel and Judeah.
Whatever Jewish socio-political anomalies existed those thousands of years ago in Palestine were temporary and insignificant. Ancient Israel and Judeah were just brief stains on the land, they covered nowhere near the size the zionist entity covers today, and the significance Jewish-Zionists attach to these two blips on the historical map is greatly exaggerated for their own self-serving reasons.
Zionist crimes and atrocities cannot be excused, and anyone who sides with Israel and its propagandists is morally wrong, and has chosen to be on the wrong side of history.
What is written below is not meant to belittle zionist crimes, or justify evil zionist policies in any way, shape, or form. For whatever happened in Palestine since 1948, the zionists had a choice, and decided to make the wrong one. And for all the consequences of their decisions, they bear the consequences to this day.
But nevertheless, some uncomfortable questions remain for the Palestinians to answer.
Up until 1948, Palestine wasn’t a country with internationally-recognized borders. It was a vestige of the defunct Ottoman empire, later administered by what was once called 'Great Britain,' today the UK. It was called the British mandate of Palestine.
Zionist terrorism, spurred on by the insidious Balfour Declaration of 1917, eventually compelled the British to withdraw from Palestine, but not before the UN partitioned the region into Jewish and Arab zones.
After the British left, the Jewish-zionists, not content with what was given to them, launched a war of conquest, and absorbed even more Palestinian territory. This included wholesale massacres of Palestinian inhabitants, destruction of Arab villages, the expulsion of 700,000 Arab Palestinians, and the expropriation of their land and houses.
Right after that, the zionists unilaterally declared independence and declared all land annexed in 1948 as the official borders of the new State of Israel.
The UN then voted to make israel a UN member.
But why did the Palestinians not do the same? For almost 20 years after the Nakba in 1948, the Palestinians did nothing to further their independence. The now-deceased Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi also asked this same question a while back.
After all, prior to the zionist declaration of independence, neither people had formally recognized state borders, and were not UN members. So UN edicts didn’t actually apply to either side. It was all pretty much up for grabs.
The zionist being zionists, acted quickly and without mercy. The Palestinians did not. Even after the Nakba the Palestinians did nothing.
They sat there, and waited.
But for what? And why? What were they expecting to happen?
They already got a lesson in Jewish-zionist treachery and deceit, so they’ve must’ve realized that things may get even worse for them in the future.
It goes without saying that the Palestinians were robbed by the zionists of their land and homes.
Perhaps they were counting on the help of the UN and other states in getting back their stolen property, and thought that by declaring independence and official borders of a Palestinian state too soon would be a de facto recognition of the zionist entity, and would mean the acceptance of the loss of their land and homes?
Or were they afraid that the zionists would immediately declare war, if the Palestinians declared independence?
Or were Palestinian leaders promised something by foreign powers, in return for not declaring independence? Were the Palestinians manipulated by someone not to make a move toward independence?
Whatever the reason was, and it had to be at least one of these, or maybe a mix of them, the Palestinians missed a valuable opportunity to spare themselves future decades of suffering and torment at the hands of the zionists.
They also set themselves up for even greater losses of land that continue up to this day.
If the Palestinians trusted any one power or organization out there to protect, and help them regain their stolen property, then they were naive to do so.
It seems that the Palestinians were not aware whatsoever about the power of organized Jewry and the zionist lobbies in the western capitals, especially in the US.
They also didn’t know the extent to which the so-called holocaust guilt syndrome was being employed to give the zionists whatever they wanted.
If they were, then they would probably do something meaningful to secure their land and future existence much sooner.
The Palestinians should’ve realized right after 1948, and by the lack of action on the part of the UN, or any other member-state toward their plight, that there was no use hoping for things to go back to the way they were, and for justice to be done.
If the Palestinians realized that, and decided to cut their losses no later than 1949-1950 and declare independence regardless of what they were being ordered to do by any foreign powers and organizations, then they would’ve spared themselves a further loss of land, and never-ending indignities at the hands of the filthy and irredeemable Jewish-zionists. If the Palestinians did act right after the Nakba to secure what was left of their land, then the further land grabs of 1956 and 1967 would’ve not happened.
Let's remember that one of the main talking points the zionists regurgitate when it comes to excusing their atrocities against Palestinians, is that Palestine is not a state because it never declared independence.
And it is this sad fact that other countries also use to wash their hands of this situation.
But if the Palestinians did declare independence, and got a seat at the UN, the zionists would not dare to attack it, for fear of being accused of launching a war of aggression, and sanctions.
So any person or persons, whether they are still alive or already dead, that told the Palestinians not to declare independence, or prevented them from doing so, deserve the most serious condemnation. Any person who in any way was part of this has shamed themselves, and bears the responsibility for zionist crimes, even posthumously.
And while in the past some countries declared their recognition of Palestine as a country, this still is not enough, since Palestinians did not yet declare independence.
The zionists have exploited this by gobbling up more Palestinian land, therefore assuring themselves that the Palestinians will never declare independence under the current circumstances.
The Palestinians should’ve armed themselves, by themselves starting in 1948, and declared independence, and been prepared to ruthlessly fight off the zionists.
They should’ve ignored the Europeans, the British, the US, and the dimwit Arab states like Jordan and Saudi Arabia who were playing footsie with western imperialists.
The Palestinians should’ve sprung into action on their own terms, and put the rest of the so-called Arab benefactors to the test: were they ready to help their fellow Arabs and Muslims, or would they cower in front of western and zionist politicians?
The Palestinians had this ultimate sovereign option. They did not need the permission or stamp of approval of any foreign capital, or the UN. The zionists certainly didn’t ask for permission. So the Palestinians didn’t need to, either.
By sitting, and hoping, and doing nothing for years, the Palestinians allowed the zionists to get away with mass theft and murder.
This lack of action by the Palestinians allowed the zionists to grow stronger and more confident. This passivity culminated in further zionist invasions and land theft later on.
The Palestinians unwittingly underwrote their own misery by not acting.
The zionists are cowards at heart. They smell weakness from a mile away. They can tell very quickly when someone can be tricked, conned, manipulated and exploited. By doing nothing after 1948, the Palestinians showed themselves to be weak enough for the zionists to pounce.
If the Palestinians would’ve armed themselves to the teeth after the Nakba, declared independence, and threatened zionists with death, if they dared oppose it, the zionists would not lift a finger. When the zionists sense courage and a resolute determination from an opponent, they get scared and withdraw. They won’t fight. This was proven by now by the heroism of Hezbollah and Iran.
In 1948, zionistan was still quite weak, and by declaring independence right after the Nakba would’ve been easy. It was made harder after 1956, and after 1967 quite impossible due to the extent of zionist land theft. Now, Palestinians cannot afford to declare independence until they get back the land that was stolen from them in June of 1967, including East Jerusalem.
The Palestinians, for whatever reason, helped paint themselves into a corner.
They mistakenly bet on the good will of a world that was already too corrupted by zionist and organized Jewish and pro-zionist interests.
They should’ve have fought.
