Crimes against the Palestinians Are finally Called ‘Crimes’
Hasan
Afif El-Hasan--Unlike the political elites and Zionist activists,
Western public had not known or cared much about the Zionist project in
Palestine before the establishment of Israel. Only after the birth of
Israel, devout Christians and many Zionist Jews and secular
intellectuals activated the call for sympathy with the European Jews to
have a secured national home not in Europe where they had been
ill-treated but in distant Palestine, and ignored the immorality and
injustice of colonizing it. They knew Palestine was populated by a
community that had nothing to do with the Jews suffering in Europe, but
they perpetuated the Zionists big lie of “land without people for people
without land” to reshape world opinion in support of Israel. Instead of
describing the establishment of Israel as European colonization of a
country and the ethnic cleansing of a nation, they focused on the
“plight of Jews” in Europe.dn
