The ethnic cleansing of Palestine - Ilan Pappe

23/10/2013

The renowned Israeli historian revisits the formative period of the State of Israel. Between 1947 and 1949, over 400 Palestinian villages were deliberately destroyed, civilians were massacred, and around a million men, women, and children were expelled from their homes at gunpoint. Denied for almost six decades, had it happened today it could only have been called "ethnic cleansing".

Decisively debunking the myth that the Palestinian population left of their own accord in the course of this war, Ilan Pappe offers impressive archival evidence to demonstrate that, from its very inception, a central plank in Israel’s founding ideology was the forcible removal of the indigenous population. Indispensable for anyone interested in the Middle East.

    I am an Aussie traveller who currently lives in Turkey. Like most people I've been fed the Zionist narrative most of my life - and believed it.             It wasn't until the invasion of Palestine by Israel in 2008 that I started to look into the history and the actual events of that time and before - well before. I was shocked! And so should we all be. Most of the articles here are but a minute collection from the media.
    Of everyday occurrences that most of us don't get to hear about; Nevertheless they should be told - and heard.
    I hope the stories here help to balance the narrative by main stream media and what it and Israel would have us all believe.
