“A Land Without A People For A People Without A Land”?
By Cherifa Sirry
For decades, Zionists and Israelis sold to the world the myth that Palestine was a “land without a people for a people without a land.” The truth was far from that. In Palestine lived a thriving society which was far different from the Palestinians you see today who have been dispossessed of all their properties by the Jews. Palestine was also a green productive agricultural land full of rivers. It was far from being the desert that Jews claim to have miraculously turned into a ‘paradise’. The famous “Israeli” Jaffa oranges that are sold all over the world today, existed in fact long before Israel ever appeared on the map of the world and they were the orange of Yafa which is the Arabic name for Jaffa. Some of my Palestinian friends still have their paperwork and documentation that proves their ownership of the Yafa oranges land, but since when was Israel ever held accountable in front of a court of law when it comes to stealing lands and properties. My friends who are the real owners of the Yafa oranges are Christian Palestinians, not Muslims… because Israel looted Christian Palestinians and hunted them away just as it did/does with the Muslims.
When the decision was taken to give Palestine to the Jews, Western powers were complicit in hiding the fact that Palestine was a country that was populated with Palestinians. It was far from being “a land without a people”.
This is what Gold Meir said in a statement to The Sunday Times on June 15th, 1969:
“There is no such thing as a Palestinian people… It is not as if we came and threw them out and took their country. They didn’t exist.”
By 1969, the Zionists with British, European and US help had already massacred, transferred and deported hundreds of thousands if not millions of Palestinians out of their homes and had simply taken them over. Zionists literally stole Palestinian property down to Palestinian jewelry, furniture and money.
George W. Bush went to Israel last week to celebrate 60 years of Israeli occupation and theft of Palestinians and Palestine. He celebrated 60 years of Israeli and Western lies to first and foremost trick the American tax-payers into continuing to finance this terrorist imperial entity called Israel.
It is shameful and unacceptable that the president of the so-called “free” world now openly celebrates oppression, occupation and destruction of another country.
This was the Palestine which we knew in the Middle East and which we will never forget:
This was life in Palestine… Do you still think that it was a “land without a people for a people without a land”?? Is it clear now why there is a Palestinian and Arab resistance movement that will never forget Palestine? Is it proper for the president of the United States to celebrate and toast the making of 7 million Palestinian refugees in order to please some Eastern European and Russian Jews?
