Today In Labor History April 9, 1948: The Irgun and Lehi Zionist paramilitary slaughtered over 100 Palestinians in the Deir Yassin massacre, near Jerusalem. Many of the victims were women and children. Rape and mutilation were also alleged. It was part of the Nakba and expulsion of Palestinians from Palestine. As news of the massacre spread, it sparked terror among Palestinians throughout the region, convincing many to flee their homes. It also strengthened the resolve of Arab governments to attack, which they did a few weeks later, sparking the Arab-Israeli War of 1948. Menachim Begin was leader of the Irgun at the time. He went on to found the Likud Party and he became prime minister of Israel from 1977 to 1983. Many Arab states produced postage stamps commemorating the massacre. All of them use the image of a map of Palestine with a bloody dagger thrust into it.

Postage stamp from Kuwait commemorating the Deir Yassin massacre. It depicts a purple map of Palestine with a bloody dagger thrust into it. It reads: The twentieth anniversary of the cruel aggression and massacre of Deir Yassin in Arab Palestine.

No food or medical supplies, nothing has been allowed into Gaza for a month by the murdering Jewish-supremacist colonial administration.
Meanwhile plans proced to annex and clear all of Palestine of the Palestinians.
I do hope that one day, from the river to the sea, #Palestine will be free, but I have little hope given all the anabling governments from Budapest to London to Washington to Berlin.

"The guy currently in our house is from Long Island." He "fled fraud charges in the US & has found himself a safe haven in our home."

There's a "large number of Jewish New York residents in these kinds of settler groups."

Chris Hedges The writer and poet Mohammed el-Kurd, who is the Palestine correspondent for The Nation magazine, grew up in Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem. His childhood was dominated by the intrusion of Israeli colonists who steadily seized larger and larger parts of his neighborhood, ruthlessly evicting Palestinian families from their homes. Harassment, detentions, arrests, beatings and shootings of Palestinians by the Israeli occupation forces was a nearly daily occurrence. Mohamed, who earned an MFA in creative writing from Brooklyn College of the City University of New York and a BFA from the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), also came to understand that the way the world perceives Palestinians, and the way Zionists and their supporters manipulate the narrative of Palestinian dispossession, puts Palestinians into an impossible position, one he refers to as the “perfect victim.” Palestinians, dehumanized and condemned in western narratives, are repeatedly asked to prove their humanity, forced into the impossible role of perfect victims. “Dehumanization has situated us - ejected us - outside of the human condition,” he writes, “so much so that what is logically understood to be a man’s natural reaction to subjugation is an uncontained and incomprehensible, primal behavior if it comes from us. What makes some people heroes is what makes us criminals. It is almost simplistic to say we are guilty by birth.

#Israeli drones broadcast threats of ‘second and third Nakba’ to #Palestinians in Gaza

from #MiddleEastMonitor

Researchers at Euro-Med documented Israeli quadcopter drones broadcasting recorded threats to #Gaza’s population. The messages warned of further displacement and destruction, with one chilling statement declaring: “And if you do not wake up from slumber, they will bring a second and third #Nakba upon you.”

Quoting Uzi Barham: Ben-Gurion, Father of the Nakba? This weighed on him greatly

Baram acknowledges the historical reality of the #Nakba, but he also attempts to reclaim Ben-Gurion's legacy from those who would use it to justify current policies of displacement. He argues that Ben-Gurion, while not without responsibility for the events of 1948, viewed the Nakba as a problem for #Israel, both politically and morally. He cites historical examples of Ben-Gurion's attempts to mitigate the consequences of the displacement, such as his consideration of returning Palestinian refugees.

[…] Ben-Gurion held a consultation with the political leadership (Golda Meir) and with the agency leadership (Moshe Sharett) and said: "We did not expel Arabs from the Land of Israel. First of all, it is necessary to tell the facts how they fled. To the extent that it was known to me, most of the fleeing did so before the establishment of the state. Only the Arabs of Ramle and Lod left their place or were pressured to leave." In this context, Tom Segev writes in his book "A State at Any Cost" that Ben-Gurion was careful to say in the case of the Arabs of Lod-Ramle that "explicit instructions were given not to expel the residents and it turned out that they were forced."

Hebrew haaretz.co.il/opinions/2025-02 or archive.is/PcFhN

Interesting defense of Ben-Gurion's legacy. However, critics would undoubtedly argue that the act of fleeing, as occurred after the Deir Yassin massacre, is functionally equivalent to the expulsion of people at gunpoint. The practical consequences and the established status quo have consistently favored Israel, to the disadvantage of the Palestinians.

so this new displacement of Palestinians that started with #Gaza and has extended to #WestBank and #Lebanon is just a continuation of the Six Day War which was a continuation of the 1948 Nakba

"La roadmap di #Trump e #Netanyahu: #nakba trasferimento forzato ed espulsione.

L'annuncio di Trump di questa mattina (5 febbraio) costituisce un appello alla pulizia etnica.
L'idea è folle e riprovevole. Indipendentemente dalla sua fattibilità, il fatto stesso del suo annuncio è una macchia morale indelebile per tutti i soggetti coinvolti.
L'attuazione di un tale piano sarebbe una grave violazione del diritto internazionale."
