"The West Bank is occupied Palestinian land".This phase is repeated, as given,
by all the governmen of the world and by the entire news media, etc., etc.
This idea that the West Bank is occupied Palestinian land has been accepted by
almost everyone. Yet, it is, in fact, the greatest lie ever perpetrated on the
whole humanity.
If you think this is an outlandish statement please read on and decide for
yourself.
Palestinians claim that Palestina is their land, and that Jerusalem is their
capital, and that Israel is occupying their land. to resist occupation they
have the right to send suicide bombers into crowded bus, stations, pizza
parlors, etc., and kill innocent men, women, and children. And all Arab and
Muslim countries support them in their claims and action against Israel.
Beacause of this occupation of Palestinian land by Israel, because of this
crime commited against their Palestinian brothers, all Arabs hate Israel and
went to destroy it.
To anyone who is familiar with the facts, and has an objective eye, all this
must be fascinating. beacause never before has a complete lie, on such large
scale, been so successful.
First, if Arab animosity toward Israel is based on their love and support for
their Palestinian brothers, and in wanting their Palestinian brithers to have
their own state,where was that love and support before the Jewish state existed?
Where were they when the Kingdom of Jordan ruled Palestine? Why were they not
accusing Jordan of occupying Palestinian land? Why did not the Arab world and
the United Nations call on Jordan to stop occupying Palestinian land? Second,
where were the Palestinians themselves, with all their grievances and claims,
when Jordan occupied the whole West Bank, including Jerusalem?
Did you know that? Did you know that for 19 years Jordan occupied and ruled the
whole West Bank, including Jerusalem? No, we did not. Why not?
Beacuse their never existed a Palestinian state.
And in the entire history of nations, Jerusalem was never the capital of any
country than that of ancient Israel and modern Israel. So how can there be a
claim on Jerusalem as the capital of a state that never existed?
One of the problems here is that so few people know the history of the world.
hence, lies and more lies, repeated often enough, are assumed to be facts.
I have heard many scholars question the very notion of a Palestinian people.
What, they as, makes a people? Well, there are four elements that define a
people: language, religion, culture, and cuisine. For example, the Chinese and
japanese are both Oriental. Still, they are two different peoples, because they
each have a different language, a different religion, a different culture, and
a different cuisine.
The Palestinian speak the same language, follow the same religion, manifest he
same culture, and eat the same cuisine as all the other Arabs. they are really
Arabs eho happen to live in a region called Palestine.
Palestine is not, and never was, the name of a country, or the name of a people.
It is the name of a region - just like Siberia is a region, not a country.
There is no Siberian country, nor is there is a Siberian people. It is a
region. Just like the Sahara is a region, not a country. There is no Saharan
country, nor is there a Saharan people. The Arabs living in that region are
Libyans, Moroccans, etc.etc., It is a region.
Beacuse palestine is a region, not a country, England was able to carve out of
half of it and give it to the Arabs living on the other side of the Jordan
River and call it the Kingdom of Jordan. Because Palestine is a region the
United Nations was able to divide the rest of it between the Jews and the Arabs
living´there. Had the Arabs accepted the United Nations resolution there would
have been a newly created Arab state called Palestine. Instead they rejected
the United Nations compromise and went to war to destroy Israel. They lost the
war. Hence, no Palestinian state.
Here are some cold facts.
King David built the city of Jerusalem, and King Solomon, David's son, built
the holy temple. This commonwealth of Israel lasted for a thousand years. There
was only one break, when, 400 years after King Davis, the Babylonian invaders
occupied the land for 70 years. Then, with the help of Cyrus the Great of
Persia-yes, Persia - Israel came back to the land, rebuilt the temple, and
ruled for another 600 years.
Then the Romans came and ruled the land, then the Crusaders ruled the land, the
the Ottoman Empire ruled the land, then the British Empire ruled the land, then
Israel returned to its homeland and built a modern Jewish state. It was never -
repeat, never - a Palestinian state.So what is all this talk about occupied
Palestinian land?
They certainly have a right to live there freely and happily.Nobody wants to
move them away from their land. But from where comes the right for a
Palestinian state? Is it because they live there?
Imagine, if the Mexican-American community in California, whose numbers are
greater than the number of Palestinians in the West Bank, decides tomorrow to
claim that the United States is occupying their land, because they elive there
and they want their own Mexican state. Imagine, if when the U.S. government
says: "No, you can live here but you cannot have a sovereignty, you cannot have
yourown state", they start sending suicide bombers, shooters, mortars, etc.,
etc. into the resr of the country, what do you think would happen?
This is precisly why there was never any suggestion of a palestinian state, not
under the Romans, not under the Crusaders, not under the Turks, not under the
english, not under the Arab Kingdom of Jordan, not until after Israel was again
established in its homeland.
I believe it is the big lie of our generation and we are all buying into it.
Whatever you believ, don't you think these facts deserve to be raised when
discussing Middle East policies?
Thank you for reading this paper.
