The "Whitewashing" of Chanukah

There are those Jews in name only among us who are spiteful, hate filled and utterly irresponsible who do their best to show THEIR "Not me" I am NOT a Zionist Jew.

These are the ones who instead of talking about us as one people, want to divide us instead. They rush to divide us along the colour of our skin or where our grandparents were born. They want to pit secular Jews against Orthodox Jews, just like they pit the "White" European Ashkenazi Jews against the "Darker" "Jews of Arab lands" Mizrachi Jew against each other as if we are not of the same family of DNA, which in reality what we really are. 

Face it, the fact is Jews are Jews - and it doesn't matter if you born in Israel or Iraq or New York or London or a small village in the middle of Ethiopia. 

Yet, despite the many cultural differences, our greatest strength lies first and foremost in our Judaism. It also lies within in our shared history, our shared nationhood, our stories and our birthright. 

During the "Christmas season" across the world there are many "beloved" celebrities, newscasters, members of the "Mass media" and government representatives who trip over themselves to "make a showing" by wishing their "accepted assimilated Jews" a happy secular "Hanukkah", TOTALLY oblivious to the true historical story the real Hanukkah is based on. 

Oh how gleefully happy these politicians and celebrities' are to "trot out" their "token court Jews"!! Be it their husband or wives of assimilated marriages, these "Mischlings" of history.

They glorify themselves in the age old story of Hellenization; the movement to neutralize and remove the religion of Judaism to allow assimilation in order to be "accepted"  among their peers! Their "white washing", of "Chanukah" version IS the age old story of denial of Zionism and Judaism. 

For them, their narrative negates the significance of Zion (Israel) while extolling the blatant and perverse demonization of a Land they claim has no relation to them. And because of this perverse negation, many of them have joined forces with the sick vile hate filled anti-Semites anti-Israel crowd believing that acceptance as one of the haters will one day save them just like those Jews who served as Kapos in the Ghettos and death camps! 

For them to admit that they are Jews and to realize that as Jews we all have always been "outsiders" is too much to bear. 

Just like the "enlightened" and well to do assimilated Jews of Western Europe in the 19th and pre Nazi era 20th century distained their "old world" Orthodox Zionistic cousins of the "Pale of Settlement.

For them to admit they to are connected to the the indigenous people of Eretz Yisrael may call into question the truth of their residence as strangers in different lands.  

For more than two millennium mass persecutions and death where wrought upon us Jews as the "outsiders" who refused to acknowledge "His" existence-their "savior" -Yahsuah the Messiah Jesus, who as an indigenous Jew was a Judean. A "Jew" born in Bethlehem, Zion-Eretz Yisrael. 

For centuries THIS part of the story was suppressed or left unspoken to the masses. For to admit that their "Savior" was first and foremost a Jew called a rabbi by his followers would go against their joyful willingness to butcher the "Jews" for more than two millennium. Just like the denial of the Jewish right to exist as a free people in "OUR" homeland and our forced expulsion.  

For to acknowledge "OUR right" to exist as a free people in "OUR" indigenous homeland would be an acknowledgment to admit that Jesus was first and foremost a Jew born in Bethlehem. 

Now, there is the "burden" of the tale of the Tragedy Tourists of Nachba fame. 

The fable of the so called Palestinians who since the late 1960's have hijacked the sympathy of the world and it's spotlight of misery to be focused only on them. These manipulators of the media with their mendacious lies and "falestinian dezinformatsiya",  gained control over the UN and have used the world media to milk the nations of the world for billions of EURO's and Dollars  supposedly for their people whilst in reality their leaders and their cronies have reaped the benefits without any monitoring as to WHERE the monies disappeared.

Therefore, is it no wonder the Tragedy Tourists of Nachba fame and their duped minions are so busy trying to "steal" Jesus as a  "Palestinian" so as to continue the denial of the truth that they are the true usurpers of OUR Jewish homeland.

All the while the JINO's of the world will continue their dance of appeasement.

The UAE - Israel Peace Treaty and Judaea and Shomron

" US Ambassador to the US David Friedman clarified that the word which had been chosen to describe the situation was “suspended” and that the word had been chosen “very carefully” because it means a temporary halt. Sovereignty, Friedman said was “off the table” not but not “off the table permanently.”

“Israel has agreed not to do it. More than off the table, they have agreed not to do it," Trump said. "I think that very important. I think it was a great concession by Israel, I think it was a smart concession....HOWEVER,  he could not clarify what would happen in the future, “right now it is off the table.”

The US Ambassador explained that, “we have an agreement with the Emirates. We are going to nail all the details, embassies, overflights, commercial. Then we are going to extrapolate that to the rest of the region.

“How long that takes, I cannot tell you. But we have prioritized peace over the sovereignty movement. It’s not off the table, it’s just something that has been deferred until we have given peace every single chance.”

When asked if a deal with the UAE could have been reached without Netanyahu’s decision to suspend annexation.

“I think you can't do both at the same time,” Friedman said. “Prioritize peace. Sovereignty after peace is given every opportunity.”

But, he said, Israel has not been asked to permanently abandoned the idea of annexation.

As Dr, Spyridon Litas wote in his article; "A New Reality for the Eastern Mediterranean", BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 1,691

In political theory there are two roads to follow when dealing with problems like these: an idealistic road, and a realistic road.

The first approach argues that if a state or region seeks a pathway toward stability and progress, it must first deal with the many challenges at hand. 

The second approach urges the political entity to push forward and simultaneously find solutions to its current predicaments while ensuring its future prospects.

Inefficient governments that hide their failures behind structural drawbacks,readily favor avoiding any step outside their safety zones of conventional thinking or practice.

The UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel have seen in this era of Iranian threats and the growing dangers in Turkey that a united front of enlightened leadership is needed. 

The UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel follow constructive policies on the domestic front. The UAE and Saudi Arabia have taken full notice that Israel has made itself into a “start-up nation” with one of the most technologically advanced militaries in the world dedicated to finding solutions to daily threats that challenge its very survival, 

The Israeli military’s edge is a tremendous boost to not only the security of it's citizens but to the internal economy and national prestige as well. 

Though the UAE has been targeted by Iranian backed Shiite and Sunni (ISIS) radicals. The UAE has grown and developed in the last decade into a cosmopolitan hub that is a top tourist destination, a global champion of culture and sports. Under the leadership of Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan the UAE has embraced the "smart city- smart nation" concepts to improve the life of the people now and in the future and in so doing they have achieved top awards in AI and in the energy sector. 

Saudi Arabia has also entered a phase of profound advances in both economy and society, though modernization will be a long and bumpy process. The kingdom is still a conservative political entity with a firm religious structure and a "unique" political functioning. Nevertheless, Riyadh has opposed religious radicalism (both Sunni and Shiite) and is a pillar of stability and rationality for the global crude oil market.

These three smart states are all pioneers in various aspects of international politics, technology, civic structure, and inter-religious dialogue. Their successes underline that it is irrational for the Eastern Mediterranean region to ignore its economic reconstruction or technological advancement while it deals with its geostrategic challenges. It is not sensible for the region to concentrate on those challenges at the expense of modernizing its economies and institutions, and vice versa.

In his speech regarding the UAE - Israel Peace Accord, as Tovah Lazaroff points out in her article from the Jerusalem Post Trump: "West Bank annexation 'off the table', Christianity part of UAE deal."

Part of President Trump's awareness of the Middle East that he and his advisors discussed before issuing the "Deal of the Century", was the ongoing tragedy confronting the Christian minority's in the Middle East. Specifically in Syria and Iraq in the aftermath of the genocidal actions of ISIS.

This has become a major issue with the President not only because of his political base but because of his humanity- which his detractors constantly deny.

"Protecting Christians in the Middle East is an important part of the nascent peace deal that the USA has brokered between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, US President Donald Trump told reporters in Washington late Thursday as he clarified that West Bank annexation was off the table right now.

“Christians have been persecuted by some countries in particular in the Middle East. This [the UAE deal] is a big start, It is going to be a strong start, a very powerful start” toward protecting Christians in the Middle East, Trump said.

“If you look at the way Christians have been treated in some countries, it is beyond disgraceful. If I had information and if I had absolute proof of some of the stories we have heard, which is not easy to get, I would go in and do a number to those countries, like you would not believe,”

As a result protecting Christians in the Middle East would also be a component of future deals that would be signed between Israel and other countries in the region, he clarified.

Christianity “is a very big part of the overall negotiation. As countries come in, the UAE has agreed very strongly to represent us, I think will, very well, with respect to Christianity, because in the Middle East it is not treated well. It is treated horribly and very unfairly,”

The president also attempted to clarify some of the confusion with regard to any Israeli plans to annex portions of the West Bank.

In January the US had unveiled a peace plan that would have allowed Israel to annex up to 30% of the West Bank, but then the Trump administration asked Israel to wait before executing that plan. 

On Thursday in Jerusalem, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the as a result of the deal, annexation had been delayed but "would move forward".

Trump told reporters he believed that the Palestinians would also come to the negotiating table to make a deal with Israel, because they rely heavily on financial support of countries that are coming to the table.

The Palestinians are “supported by countries we are already talking to. Palestinians will, without saying it necessarily yet, they want to be part of what we are doing. I see peace between Israel and the Palestinians happening, as these big powerful wealthy countries come in, I think the Palestinians will follow quite naturally,” Trump said.

The Story of "Shirley Temper" and the Tamimi Clan

As someone who served in the IDF and in reserves over the years in the area of Judea and Shomron. I wish to mention that in the 1976 period when I had just begun my service.  I was assigned to escort Israeli Water works (Mekorot) employees in their job to lay water lines through parts of the area to Jewish and Arab villages. 

By the way in THOSE days we were greeted warmly by the Arab villagers and we were offered "Turkish" coffee, baklava and pitaot with cheese, olive oil and Zartar - not rocks, gunfire and Molotov cocktails!!
I can remember that we stayed for two weeks in the old Tegart fort where the renewed Jewish townlet of Halamish is today.

I remember the work that was done to connect everyone Jew and Arab alike. I can remember how neglected the area was by the Jordanian's during their "occupation" and attempt at "annexation" that no village was connected to a water or sewage infrastructure. How the roads, were only those built by the Ottoman Turkish Empire or "improved upon" by the Mandatory British forces.
Most importantly I remember how deserted and barren the miles and miles of hills of Judaea were with absolutely NO trees other then the occasional olive orchards close by the villages in the Jordanian "West Bank".

As a combat Medic I remember most importantly how the most basic medical services were lacking. As a medic I was required to collect information and record data of the amount and quality of the water. 

I especially remember how disgusting the cisterns and water holes were kept and the total lack of hygiene amongst the rural Arab populace. The cistern that is today the "excuse" for incitement and as a "place of confrontation" by the Tamimi family belongs historically to the village of Deir Nidham. The area was disgustingly filthy with goat dung and feces of other animals as well as humans who would wash their feet and hands in the water.

The hygiene in the villages was 'somewhat better" especially those homes of the more "affluent -read Christian" villagers who had well kept cisterns and cesspools "bor spigot". 

Human waste -sludge- was separated and added to the manure of the animals in the rocky fields as manure fertilizer between the Olive trees.

What exists in the "disputed territories" due to our "Israeli" presence is like a "night and day" difference from what there was during the Jordanian occupation. 

As to the complains by the residents of Nebi Salih they tend to forget that most of the villagers were not land owners but tenants on land that belonged to absentee landlords who resided in Damascus. Few if any even had Ottoman Turkish "Taboo"-land registration ownership. I remember that the ones who actually did have ownership were the Christian villagers - who were more educated and in most cases the wealthier residents.

The REAL TRUTH regarding Nebi Salih is that when the first Jewish residents moved into the old British Tegart fort on Havlata Hill in 1977, the Arabs from the village of Deir Nidham, inspired by leftist Jewish "anti-Settlers" and anti-Semites from abroad, went to the Supreme Court of Israel and claimed ownership of the hill and the surrounding area. 

As Israel "IS" a democracy, the case went before the Israeli Supreme Court. However, upon review of all REAL documentation and facts -including aerial photographs from the German air force in World War I. It was deemed that the Jewish village was being built on state-owned land.  

The state owned area included the cistern Ein al-Qaws (The Bow Spring) which had been a place of fighting and contention for years between the villagers of Nabi Salih and Deir Nidham. 

This whole story, over entitlement to the land, is the very essence  to the "Palestinian Conflict". 

Notice the tone and the willingness to appease the Arab populace used by the Mandate Government as evidenced in this; "Report of the Palestine Royal Commission, July 1937" to spite the Jews.

The British government appointed the Peel Commission to investigate the reasons for the civil unrest in Palestine. Lord Peel's findings on land purchase were as follows:

A summary of land legislation enacted during the Civil Administration shows the efforts made to fulfill the Mandatory obligation in this matter. The Commission point to serious difficulties in connection with the legislation proposed by the Palestine Government for the protection of small owners. The Palestine Order in Council and, if necessary, the Mandate should be amended to permit of legislation empowering the High Commissioner to prohibit the transfer of land in any stated area to Jews, so that the obligation to safeguard the right and position of the Arabs may be carried out. Until survey and settlement are complete, the Commission would welcome the prohibition of the sale of isolated and comparatively small plots of land to Jews.

Up till now the Arab cultivator has benefited on the whole both from the work of the British Administration and the presence of Jews in the country, but the greatest care must now be exercised to see that in the event of further sales of land by Arabs to Jews the rights of any Arab tenants or cultivators are preserved. Thus, alienation of land should only be allowed where it is possible to replace extensive by intensive cultivation. In the hill districts there can be no expectation of finding accommodation for any large increase in the rural population. At present, and for many years to come, the Mandatory Power should not attempt to facilitate the close settlement of the Jews in the hill districts generally.

The shortage of land is due less to purchase by Jews than to the increase in the Arab population. The Arab claims that the Jews have obtained too large a proportion of good land cannot be maintained. Much of the land now carrying orange groves was sand dunes or swamps and uncultivated when it was bought.

Legislation vesting surface water in the High Commissioner is essential. An increase in staff and equipment for exploratory investigations with a view to increasing irrigation is recommended.

The Arabs the Tragedy Tourists of the Nacba Losers society cannot stand to see Jews as their "neighbors''-especially those who reside in Judaea and Shomron. They will stop at nothing to deny "US" Jews OUR indigenous rights to OUR lands. 

THEY do not wish to live in "Peace" ergo their countless murderous attacks, "Days of rage" temper tantrums and demonstrations ah la Bassem Tamimi and ISM Peace Now Pallywood productions.

Ahed Tamimi, is the "Pallywood™" star known as Shirley Temper, because of white skin and her blond hair. She is a propaganda tool who was groomed by her abusive parents Bassem, who has been jailed eight times, and Nariman who has been detained five times. 

They became  well-known mass media Palestinian activists in their village of Nabi Saleh. The "Shirley Temper" family have "milked" the Media frenzy against Israel for more then a decade in the staging and instigating of provocative confrontations with young Israeli soldiers who arrive to maintain order. 

Due to these staged and filmed "incidents" Bassem al-Tamimi and his daughter "Shirley Temper" Ahed Tamimi are very much "in demand" for anti-Israel anti-"Occupation" speaking engagements through out the world by Liberal, anti-Zionist, anti-Israel Hate groups abroad.

Here is an old 2005 video of just how the Tamimi family cynically sent their children to provoke soldiers to elicit by all means acts of violence in front of cameras (note just how many reporters are on hand).

This video was shot on a main road near the village of Nabi Salih and the Jewish residential townlet of Halamish, in Judaea and Shomron which was part of the League of Nations Mandated Area designated in the Treaty Of Serves in 1922 to be part of the "Jewish Homeland" that was previously "Occupied" by the Jordanians and liberated in a war of defense in June 1967.

From her youth Ahed Tamimi was fed on a diet of incitement and hatred against Israel and appeared in a string of identical ISM (International Solidarity Movement) "staged" and produced videos where she challenges and attempts to provoke responses by Israeli security forces. 

She rose to prominence after she was filmed confronting IDF soldiers who arrested her brother, which resulted in her being presented with a bravery award. She was handed the ‘Handala Award for Courage’ by the president of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in Istanbul.

The "Shirley Temper" family have "milked" the Media frenzy against Israel for more then a decade in the staging and instigating of provocative confrontations with young Israeli soldiers who arrive to maintain order. They use the B'tselem NGO provided video cameras and "Palestinian Press stringers" -freelancers to record scenes of "Israeli repression".  

Up until 2010 soldiers where the ones called to scenes of disturbances where they were assigned to prevent  violence and confrontation. And as seen in the videos they would simply stand peacefully near their vehicles and watch. 

The Tamini's took advantage of these setting and under the massive presence

of members of the "Press" they would "instigate confrontations" to "elicit" responses. Provocateurs would urge many times underage youth to throw "stones", use slingshots and to provoke the soldiers -who are combat infantry and not trained and unprepared for police type civil disturbance violence. 

Occasionally seeing that their rock

throwing and abuse was NOT providing photographic "opportunities" the Palestinian provocateurs would escalate the violence by throwing Molotov cocktails at the Israeli soldiers to induce violent reactions to be filmed.

Due to these staged and filmed "incidents" Bassem al-Tamimi and his daughter "Shirley Temper" Ahed Tamimi are very much "in demand" for anti-Israel anti-"Occupation" speaking engagements through out the world by Liberal, anti-Zionist, anti-Israel Hate groups abroad.

Another cousin Ahlam Ahmad Al-Tamimi is currently on the FBI's most wanted list for her assistance in carrying out the Sbarro restaurant suicide bombing in which Shoshana Yehudit (Judy) Greenbaum, 31 (5 months pregnant), from Passaic, New Jersey, U.S was murdered. She was convicted by Israel and received multiple life sentences but was released as part of the Gilead Shalit prisoner exchange. She hosts a television Jordanian government sponsored show about Palestinians in Israeli prisons.
Her aliases include Ahlam Aref Ahmad Al-Tamimi, Ahlam Arafat Mazin Al Tamimi,, Halati and Khalti, and the FBI has reported her name as Ahlam Ahmad Al-Tamimi.

Irony: Oops he thought she was a Jewess.

Hannah Bladon, a Pro-Palestinian activist had surreptitiously enrolled in the Zionistic and pro-Israel program Rothberg International School of Hebrew University in order to receive free housing and ease of access to Falestinian groups on the encouragement of BTzelem and the Israeli chapter of Jews For Justice in Falestine. 

She was stabbed to death (Karma) on the light rail in Jerusalem by #pay4slay murderer Jamil Tamimi, a 57-year-old, from the [Jerusalem] neighborhood of Ras al-Amud who is a clan relative of the infamous "Pallywood" star Shirley Temper.

In a recent incident, for which Ahed was arrested and jailed, it was filmed by the massive media presence near the Tamini home, that received world wide coverage. Ahed Tamini was seen by the "glorifiers" of the Palestinian side as "bravely" slapping and abusing an Israeli Army officer and his communications man.

According to his testimony to the court, the officer and his communications man rushed to the Tamimi clan home to cut off and prevent the retreat and fortification of the rioting Arabs from the road.
The video was shot just as the leader of the riots -who was as usual with his B'Tselem provided movie camera sequestered themselves inside the home of Bassem Tamimi, realized that his plan for the provocation of an attack on his home was foiled by the move of the officer.
The officer assessed the situation and realized what was occurring but due to the fact that higher command had not provided sufficient forces he did not have reserve forces to come to his aid. Therefore it was his command decision to absorb the abuse rather then giving in to the extreme provocation and thereby reduce the chances of an escalation of the rioting.

Because of the amount of media attention, caused primarily by the numerous "stringers" freelance Palestinian and Israeli photographers and cameramen at every riot. The rioters who feel emboldened to react do so many times and civilians are injured. 
These members of the Palestinian "stringers Faux-press" who cynically manipulate the crowds of rioters for the maximum propaganda effect, are themselves Hamas and PLO activists and should therefore be arrested as provocateurs and fined and severely punished. 

Provocateurs found with cameras should be arrested and journalists should have their certifications revoked and if found to be derisive to be declared "persona non grata" and expelled.

I would even go so far as to impose severe fines on Media outlets who are caught or provide "aid and comfort" to the enemy.

FYI for All the "International Law" Geneva Convention people please note: 

Since the "Arabs of the Mandated Areas" aka the "New Palestinians" refused UNR181 and Oslo and the area is "disputed territory" British Mandatory Laws still are in force. 

So since British Mandate period Laws are LEGALLY  in effect from  the "Great Revolt". Mandate regulations allow for heavy fines to be placed on villagers and villages that react violently. Those declared belligerent as per the Law should be deported and the villages leveled since the area of Judaea and Shomron ARE part of Mandated Territory and the action taken is based on BRITISH Mandatory Law should be widely stated.

Tragedy Tourism hijacking of BLM

A recent "discourse" on Talkbacks with some American Jews, who cling to Liberalism and the Democratic Party at the expense of their "Jewish heritage" over the "anti-Jewish" stance by BLM. Led to accusations that pro-Israel, pro Zionists were liars and that the BLM original platform / charter posted on the Internet does NOT have clauses "hateful" of Jews but ONLY anti-Zionistic and anti-Israel rhetoric. 

However, by back checking we can clearly see that Black Lives Matters leaders have adopted the Communist insurgency rule book, outlined to those members of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee’s (SNCC) during their indoctrination by the KGB, on how to removing all evidence on the Internet of their "Original Manifesto"- Cree- Platform of their original anti-Israel anti-Zionist section.

In multiple articles like  "How Did Black Lives Matter Come To Charge Israel With ‘Genocide’?" by Sam Kestenbaum from August 9, 2016. The link to the text of the "manifesto" is "broken". 

I can also refer you also to this Israellycool article from 2016 regarding a Letter to the Editor of the St. Louis Post Dispatch, Bishop Lawrence M. Wooten, President of the Ecumenical Leadership Council of St. Louis, who wrote,

"We sincerely recognize the value of law enforcement officers and realize that the majority are devoted public servants. However, we also believe that Black Lives Matter plays a vital role in addressing racially driven police abuse in America.

Recently, Black Lives Matter issued a platform of demands. One of the demands called for the elimination of U.S. aid to Israel. Their argument is that Israel is an apartheid state perpetrating genocide against the Palestinians. Most of the platform’s readers are likely unaware that its Israel/Palestine section was written by an activist who was born and raised as a Jew, although Rachel Gilmer says she no longer identifies as  (being) Jewish.

The Ecumenical Leadership Council of Missouri, representing hundreds of predominantly African-American churches throughout the state, rejects without hesitation any notion or assertion that Israel operates as an apartheid country. We embrace our Jewish brethren in America and respect Israel as a Jewish state."

Because of this I sent a request to Canary Mission to see if they have a copy and they sent me the link to an archived copy. 

From a key wikki page is this passage regarding regarding Benjamin Ndugga-Kabuye who was the "co-author' of the anti-Israel section of the Black Lives matter Platform:

"Amid the nearly 40,000 words that make up the recent manifesto issued by a large coalition affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement, two have raised an outcry among mainstream Jewish organizations and leaders.

Those two words, in a brief section about Israel, are “apartheid” and “genocide.”

The original August 1, 2016 manifesto, was penned by a coalition of some 60 grassroots organizations known as the Movement for Black Lives. Supposedly their credo and manifesto are largely focused on the group’s ideas for achieving racial justice for African Americans in the United States, and that "Israel" was NOT specifically targeted.

Accordingly we are informed;

"... few knew that it was a woman with a Jewish background who co-wrote the very section that provoked them.

And just WHO is this woman with a Jewish background ?

Rachel Gilmer, is a 28-year-old African American who was born to an African-American father and a "white Jewish mother". 

According to her short biography, "though raised as a Jew Gilmer had participated as a teen in the Young Judaea Zionist youth group". Since that time she has "distanced herself" from organized religion and in university Gilmer somehow transformed into a full fledged JINO -Jew in name only fervent anti-Zionist and had become actively involved in black-Palestinian solidarity work. 

Gilmer is associated with the activist group Dream Defenders. A group whose original and main aim was to ending police and prisons (especially private prisons) as part of their policy and is geared towards people of color who share the goal of multi-racial organizing, among other goals.

However, since the involvement of the "Tragedy Tourists of Nachbaland" in the riots of Ferguson, Missouri beginning in August of 2014, after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. The Dream Defender's, as well as the BLM group, have been subverted and hijacked by the "Tragedy Tourists of Nachbaland" -the Palestinians. 

Under the influence of Rachel Gilmer Dream Defenders has; 

"been on the forefront of recent black-Palestinian solidarity efforts, such as bringing high-profile delegations of African-American activists to Israel and the West Bank."

According to the credits on the BLM web site Gilmer, and Benjamin Ndugga-Kabuye, from the Black Alliance for Just Immigration, were the sole authors of the anti-Israel / Zionism section of the platform issued by the Movement for Black Lives.

It is worth noting that in May of 2014, Gilmer traveled to Israel and the Judea and Shomron (the "disputed territories" or West Bank) on a trip sponsored by Hanan Ashrawi's MIFTAH group. While on her blatantly anti-Zionist anti-Israel one sided tour she was indoctrinated and further bamboozled with the Palestinian lies and commented later:

“While our struggles are not identical, it became so clear that we are up against the same system of state violence and repression,” “We must call for the divestment of the military industrial complex, just like we are calling for a divestment from the policing of our neighborhoods.”

I t is true that Gilmer is far from the only person responsible for the entire Movement for Black Lives platform.

According to the BLM website the manifesto was the result of a year of meetings, debates and conference calls among black-led organizations. Hundreds of individuals were involved. And Gilmer shared writing duties on the Israel section with just one other activist, Benjamin Ndugga-Kabuye, from the Black Alliance for Just Immigration.

Gilmer has stressed that the platform was written;

“for and by black people … to build connections between the Movement for Black Lives in the U.S. to movements for liberation around the world.” 

It is hard to comprehend in reading her biographic background just where and when this animosity and hostility of Zionism and Israel evolved in the mind of this "rosy Jewish Young Judea" background she professes.

Here are the pertinent paragraphs from the original BLM archived copy of the BLM Charter/ Platform  written by Rachel Gilmer and Benjamin Ndugga-Kabuye (Hat tip Canary Mission).

The highlighted text are atypical of the usual virulent hatefilled anti-Israel Palestinian dezinformatsiya propaganda based on semi actual facts which they use to distort and warp the wording to confuse and manipulate the minds of the "least intelligent".

From the BLM Mandate:

"The US military accounts for over 50 percent of discretionary federal spending, a total of 598.5 Billion dollars spent annually, as compared to 70 billion spent on education, 66 billion spent on healthcare, $63.2 billion spent on housing and 29.1 billion spent on social security and unemployment.

In addition, approximately 3 billion dollars in US aid is allocated to Israel, a state that practices systematic discrimination and has maintained a military occupation of Palestine for decades.

Together with aid to Egypt — Israel’s most important regional ally— this figure represents nearly 75 percent of all US aid dollars. As these figures demonstrate, resources and funds needed for reparations and for building a just and equitable society domestically are instead used to wage war against a majority of the world’s communities.

The US justifies and advances the global war on terror via its alliance with Israel and is complicit in the genocide taking place against the Palestinian people. The US requires Israel to use 75 percent of all the military aid it receives to buy US-made arms. Consequently, every year billions of dollars are funneled from US taxpayers to hundreds of arms corporations, who then wage lobbying campaigns pushing for even more foreign military aid. The results of this policy are twofold: it not only diverts much needed funding from domestic education and social programs, but it makes US citizens complicit in the abuses committed by the Israeli government. Israel is an apartheid state with over 50 laws on the books that sanction discrimination against the Palestinian people. Palestinian homes and land are routinely bulldozed to make way for illegal Israeli settlements. Israeli soldiers also regularly arrest and detain Palestinians as young as 4 years old without due process. Everyday, Palestinians are forced to walk through military checkpoints along the US-funded apartheid wall.

As an "educated" and enlightened individual one truly has to stop, step back and wonder as to what level of intelligence exists within the leadership of the BLM - Dream Defenders when one reads these lines of such utter falsification of true facts that are readily available in a simple Google search!!

Let us take a critical look at the statements written by Rachel Gilmer and Benjamin Ndugga-Kabuye. 

1) This anti-Israel attack point that -Gilmer - begins with "US AID" is truly odd since this main point of attack is derived form the conspiracy theories of the Aryan White Supremists, Neo-Nazi, anti Jewish, virulent anti-Semites linked to the philosophies of William Luther Pierce III a prominent American white nationalist and of course right-wing politician, and a former Grand Wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, David Dukes.

This anti-Israel stance was adopted by the Palestinian dezinformatsiya propaganda machine as a direct outcome of the International Conference to Review the Global Vision of the Holocaust which David Duke attended in Tehran, Iran in December  2006.  

As you can see in the above photo Neo-Nazi White Supremacist cooperation is accepted when it comes to hatred of the Jews.

 

2) "Israel, a state that practices systematic discrimination and has maintained a military occupation of Palestine for decades".- WHY?

"practices systematic discrimination" - 

This statement is pure Palestinian dezinformatsiya at it's best. The comparison is factually and morally inaccurate and is intended to delegitimize Israel. The "disputed territories"- the West Bank and Gaza are not part of sovereign Israel and are governed by the elected Palestinian Authority and Hamas leaders, so they cannot be compared to the internal policies of apartheid South Africa.

In the 1990s, the term "Israeli apartheid" gained prominence after Israel, as a result of the Oslo Accords, granted the Palestinians limited self-government in the form of the Palestinian Authority and established a system of permits and checkpoints in the Palestinian Territories. The apartheid accusation has gained additional traction following Israel's construction of the West Bank Barrier. By 2013 the analogy between the West Bank and Bantustans of apartheid-era South Africa was widely drawn in international circles. Also in the United States, where the notion had previously been taboo, Israel's rule over the occupied territories was increasingly compared to apartheid. 

The allusion is to the "Apartheid state" accusation became a favorite lie of the Palestinian Propagandists to bring disdain upon Israel.

South African Judge Richard Goldstone, writing in The New York Times in October 2011, said that while there exists a degree of separation between Israeli Jews and Arabs;

"in Israel, there is no apartheid. Nothing there comes close to the definition of apartheid under the 1998 Rome Statute". 

Concerning the West Bank, Goldstone wrote that the situation;

"is more complex. But here too there is no intent to maintain 'an institutionalized regime of systematic oppression and domination by one racial group'." 

Goldstone also wrote in The New York Times, 

"the charge that Israel is an apartheid state is a false and malicious one that precludes, rather than promotes, peace and harmony."

So why is the accusation of "apartheid" used by Gilmer in the BLM Charter? 

Several members of BLM profess to be "continuers" of the political beliefs of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee’s (SNCC). 

Black Panther leader Huey P Newton had been associated with the SNCC in a merger/ Newton Bobby Seale and other SNCC activists visited Lebanon in 1980 with Yasser Arafat and the PLO. When he was there Newton "further embraced" the "Palestinian Cause" and raised the subject of South African - Israel cooperation and of "Apartheid" in Africa. Huey P Newton was a political activist and an avid follower of Malcolm X. Newton professed to be a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary who, along with fellow Merritt College student Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party (1966–1982). Huey was known for being an advocate of  communist-led governments in China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, and Vietnam.

As to the "Apartheid claim", there are those detractors that accuse Israel of "racial discrimination" or of "discrimination" against the Arab minority. Yet, facts on the ground clearly show that Israel on the whole is a Democratic country where all minorities and especially the Arab minority enjoy freedoms and rights unheard of in other nations. 

It is easy to ignorantly banter about the Apartheid claim when one does not even know the truth of the meaning of the term "Apartheid" 

2) military occupation of Palestine What is the truth in this statement? BLM has accepted and is spreading the true Palestinian intention as often stated by Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada and as mentioned in the charter of the PLO to eradicate the State of Israel!

Article 19: The partition of Palestine in 1947 and the establishment of the state of Israel are entirely illegal, regardless of the passage of time, because they were contrary to the will of the Palestinian people and to their natural right in their homeland, and inconsistent with the principles embodied in the Charter of the United Nations, particularly the right to self-determination.

Since the inception of the "Jewish State" -UNR181 in November of 1947 the "Arabs of the Mandated Areas" aka the Palestinians have set out to eradicate it and have NEVER accepted a negotiated "Peace" since their stated objective is nothing less than the eradication of the Jewish (Independence from Dhimmitude Dominance) that  Israel represents?

Also notice the statement DOES NOT talk about the; "military occupation of the West Bank" but of "Palestine"-the entire Eastern Mandated Area referred to in UNR181!!!

"Palestinian homes and land are routinely bulldozed to make way for illegal Israeli settlements."

When one searches for information on this delicate subject one is immediately immersed in the essence of the conflict between the Arabs of the Mandated Territories-aka the Palestinians and the Jews of Israel. 

The core of the conflict is the possession of the land and the truth needs to be told but in all my searches on the Internet I was inundated with the Arab POV and not one word from the Israeli side. 

First, this statement used by Gilmer comes directly from the Palestinian Propagandist "Guidebook" and speaks of "Palestinians" and "Israeli Settlements". 

By Palestinians is she referring to "Arab Israelis" or those who reside in the "Disputed Territories"?

As to "Israeli Settlements" and the use of the "illegal" Legality issue these terms are often used by the detractors of Israel to define the Jewish residents of the "disputed territories" who have constructed homes and residential townlets and villages upon grants and permits to construct on lands that once belonged to the Ottoman Turkish Government and were subsequentially passed on to the Mandate Regime of the British as delegated under The Mandate for Palestine created in the Treaty of Sèvres and later ratified in the Treaty of Lausanne July 24th 1923 by the League of Nations.  

One must recall that historically the "Mandated Area" was offered to and never claimed by the "Arabs of the ‎‎Mandated Areas" in the partition plan to be the "State for the Arabs of the Mandated ‎‎Areas" or as they refer to themselves since 1964 as "Falestinians" were divided and had ‎‎no "Shadow Authority" in the "West Bank" to claim jurisdiction when the Arab League Nations invaded. ‎‎

Ergo when the Jordanian Legion invaded and illegally conquered the area and ethically ‎‎cleansed ALL the Jewish occupants and expelled them. They did so in violation of article 2 of the UN Charter and ART. 5 of the Mandate For Palestine .

The Mandatory shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to, or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign Power.

The Jordanian's even went so far as to attempt to annex the "West Bank" (a move that was not recognized internationally) and ‎therefore became ‎‎the "Occupier" of the "Mandate Areas" from 1948 through June of 1967. ‎

Furthermore, I would refer you to Article Six of the “Mandate for Palestine”, which states;

 “the Administration of Palestine, while ensuring that the rights and position of other sections of the population are not prejudiced, shall facilitate Jewish immigration under suitable conditions and shall encourage, in co-operation with the Jewish agency referred to in Article Four, close settlement by Jews on the land, including State lands and waste lands not required for public purposes.” 

Accordingly, Article Six, makes it clear that Jewish settlements are not only permissible, but actually encouraged. Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) are perfectly legal. 

The use of the phrase “Occupied Palestinian Territories” is a disingenuous term that misleads the international community, while encouraging Palestinian Arabs, with the right to use all measures to attack Israel, including the use of terrorism.

Not once are Arabs as a "people / nation" mentioned in the Mandate for Palestine. Nowhere in the document is there any granting of political rights to Arabs.

The communities of Hartuv, Kfar Etzion, Hebron, and the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem. had only been re established after exhaustive investigations making sure none were built on private land. Israel also argues that some of the settlements are built in areas where Jewish communities that existed before the 1948 Arab-Israeli War when many "West Bank" Jewish Communities were destroyed and the residents massacred or expelled, It seems reasonable to refer to the land of these communities as liberated as it was freed from the illegal occupation of Jordan and was returned to possession of its owners, the Jewish People. Therefore in these cases the application of the Geneva Convention is an entirely different issue.

With the negotiated peace treaty between Jordan and Israel in 1995 the Mandated area for ‎‎the Jewish Homeland (Article 8 Mandate for Palestine) was returned and therefore the ‎‎‎"West Bank" officially became Israeli territory as per International Law termed; Uti ‎possidetis juris or uti possidetis iuris (Latin for "as you possess under law") is a principle ‎of international law that states that newly formed sovereign states should have the same ‎borders that their preceding dependent area had before their independence. So legally ‎there ‎is no need to annex since neither the Jordanians nor the "Falestinians" never ‎claimed ‎sovereignty. Since no country or government had ‎claimed sovereignty over it ‎than according to International Law “terra ‎nullius”, or "land ‎belonging to no one"‎

As to "bulldozing homes" this is done to ALL illegally built homes, both those of Jews as well as Arabs / Palestinians are "demolished" 

Israeli soldiers also regularly arrest and detain Palestinians as young as 4 years old without due process. 

This is an abject lie. Many times children have been detained and removed from areas of violence because their parents have allowed them to be used by demonstrators in acts of violence. I refer you to the #payforslay policies of the
Palestinian Authority where Palestinian Youth are encourage to commit acts of violence and murder.

Everyday, Palestinians are forced to walk through military checkpoints along the US-funded apartheid wall.

Have you ever noticed that those saying this never mentioned WHY the "security wall" was erected?

Nary a mention is given that prior to the horrific wave of suicide bombers released by Yasser Arafat on innocent Israeli civilians despite the Oslo Accords-see chart. Thousands of Palestinians crossed into Israel on a daily basis with almost no checkpoints nor barriers. 

These detractors consistently fail to mention that many countries of the world have constructed barriers to prevent terrorism, drug smuggling and illegal immigration -see meme.

Upon reading this I can readily envisage the image of that ridiculous Minion with a stupefied look when one reads this utterly falsified anti-Zionist propaganda!  

The Myth of the Palestinians

In their own words:

"The Palestinian people"( as a separate "people") does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism.... [T]he moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan."— PLO leader Zuheir Mohsen, the Dutch newspaper Trouw, March 31, 1977.

Zuheir Mohsen was the top PLO member responsible for the massacre of 684 Christians in Damour that took place on January 20, 1976 during the 1975–1990 Lebanese Civil War.

"There is no such country [as Palestine] .... Palestine is a term the Zionists invented.... Our country was for centuries part of Syria."-Awni Abd al-Hadi stated in his testimony before the 1937 Peel Commission.

"There is no such thing as 'Palestine' in history, absolutely not. There is no Palestine in the Bible. Our country was for centuries part of Syria.” (Arab-American historian, Princeton University Prof. Philip Hitti, testifying against partition before the Anglo-American Committee in 1946)

During an interview with Al-Hekma TV, Hamas Minister of the Interior, Fathi Hammad sought pan-Arab support by stressing their blood ties: “Half of the Palestinians are Egyptians and the other half are Saudis.” "Before the Balfour Promise (i.e., Declaration) when the Ottoman rule ended (1517-1917), Palestine's political borders as we know them today did not exist, and there was nothing called a Palestinian people with a political identity as we know today, since Palestine's lines of administrative division stretched from east to west and included Jordan and southern Lebanon, and like all peoples of the region [the Palestinians] were liberated from the Turkish rule and immediately moved to colonial rule, without forming a Palestinian people's political identity." [Official PA TV, Nov. 1, 2017]

 In his 1997 book, "Palestinian Identity: The Construction of Modern National Consciousness", historian Rashid Khalidi noted that the archaeological strata that signifies the history of "Palestine" – encompassed the Biblical, Roman, Byzantine, Umayyad, Abbasid, Fatimid, Crusader, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Ottoman periods.
These periods form part of the identity of the modern-day Palestinian people, as they have come to understand it over the last century. Noting that (al-Filasṭīniyyūn) or "Palestinian" identity has never been an exclusive one, since "Arabism, religion, and local loyalties" played an important role in the make-up of the "Falestinian people" (ash-sha‘b al-Filasṭīnī).

Furthermore, in his book Rashid Khalidi cautioned against the efforts of some "Falestinian" nationalists to "anachronistically" read back into history a nationalist consciousness that is in fact "relatively modern".

Question: "Was there EVER a country called "Palestine"? 
The only time this "Palestine" or “Falestine" existed was during the reign of the Roman Empire. Throughout history there never was a specific country called "Palestine". There was for a period of time a Roman Provence called Palaestina.

If you check all the historical references during the period -specifically Josephus - you would find that the Romans called the area -after the Philistine Greek origin invaders, due to the embarrassment from the terrible loses they had incurred in their suppression of the Jewish revolt in Judea and Shomron. You may view this readily in the coin struck  in 71 AD called "Judaea Capta" authorized by the Roman Emperor Vespasian where on the coin you can see a Jewess in attitude of mourning, seated left beneath palm tree; to right, captive Jew with hands tied behind back standing left; captured weapons behind. " and on the other side it says in Latin – “Sestertius Vespasiano Iudaea Capta”.

FACT: 

In 1947, UNR181 a United Nations resolution  proposed a plan to partition Palestine into two sections: an independent Jewish state and an independent Arab state, with Jerusalem as internationalized territory. 

Question: Is a UN resolution binding?
Most experts consider most General Assembly resolutions to be non-binding. ... Resolutions made under Chapter VII are considered binding, but resolutions under Chapter VI have no enforcement mechanisms and are generally considered to have no binding force under international law.

Partition and UNR181:

With regards to UNR181 "The Partition", the leadership of the Non Jewish  "inhabitants of Palestine" aka the Arabs of the Mandated Territories were divided and utterly refused to accept the plan to "Partition" the Mandated Territory with their Jewish neighbors and instead immediately initiated deadly attacks against the Jewish populace.

The Jewish Agency Leadership (see-Article 4 of the Mandate) of the "Mandated Territories" , led by David Ben Gurion, recognizing the Arab rejection of the UNR181 Partition and as denoted in the Mandate, declared Statehood on May 14th 1948.

The "Arab residents of the Mandated Territory" and the Seven Members of the Arab League who attacked the nascent Jewish state, were and some still are in direct violation of International Law as mentioned in clause 3 and 4 of  Article 2 of the UN Charter:

3. All Members shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered.
4. All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations. 

In the ensuing internal battles- within the designated Partition Areas- and in battles against the combined invading armies of the Arab League. The poorly armed and equipped Jewish militia -the Haganah - became the army of the new born state. The new Israeli Army was able to seek weapons with help from the Soviet Block and Jewish Volunteers from abroad that gave the Jews a fighting chance to conquer areas that had been part of the Partition intended for the inhabitants of Palestine-read Arabs in a DEFENSIVE WAR.

In almost ALL the accounts of the bloody conflict nary a word is mentioned of the invasion and ethnic cleansing of the Jewish inhabitants of the communities of Hartuv, Kfar Etzion, Hebron, and the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem by the Jordanian Army.

So as to the question WAS there EVER a "Palestinian State" (Governed by Arab inhabitants of Palestine)  

Factually and historically what there was, was a "supposed" State created by the Moslem Brotherhood in Egypt in Gaza called the All-Palestine Government  which was formed  in September 1948, prior to the end of the war for Israel's Independence

The "ALL-Palestinian government", was created under the leadership of the Mufti of Jerusalem Mohammad Amin al-Husayni. 

The Mufti declared the independence of the Palestinian state, with Jerusalem as its capital. However:

In 1959, Egyptian president Gamal Abdul Nasser ordered the dismantling of the All-Palestine Protectorate for good. In March 1962, a Constitution for the Gaza Strip was issued confirming the role of the Legislative Council. The All-Palestine Protectorate is regarded by some as the first attempt to establish an independent Palestinian state, whilst most just saw it as an Egyptian puppet, only to be annulled a few years after its creation by no less than President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt.

Let us review the documented Legal FACTS.

Between 1948 and 1950, the West bank including East Jerusalem came first under the military and later under the civilian administration of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
In June of 1967 the "West Bank" -read "disputed territories" was LIBERATED in a DEFENSIVE WAR launched by the illegal Jordanian "Occupiers" of "Mandated Territory".
Few note that the Jordanians were ILLEGAL occupiers because they had invaded and occupied the area prior to the British cessation of control of the Mandate on May 15th 1948 in violation of ART. 5 of the League of Nations Mandate to England for Palestine which explicitly states:

"The Mandatory (His Majesty's Government) shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to, or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign Power."

Therefore, under International Law, the "disputed territories was liberated and returned to possession of its owners, the Jewish People as ordained in Article 5.
Therefore, the application of the Geneva Convention does NOT legally apply to the "West Bank" -claims of "Occupation".

With the negotiated peace treaty between Jordan and Israel in 1995 the Mandated area for ‎‎the Jewish Homeland (Article 8 Mandate for Palestine) was returned and therefore the ‎‎‎"West Bank" officially became Israeli territory as per International Law termed; Uti ‎possidetis juris or uti possidetis iuris (Latin for "as you possess under law") which is a principle ‎of international law that states that; "newly formed sovereign states should have the same ‎borders that their preceding dependent area had before their independence".
Furthemore, since no country or government had ‎claimed sovereignty over it ‎than according to International Law “terra ‎nullius”, or "land ‎belonging to no one"‎ as per article 4  ("the establishment of the Jewish national home") of the "Mandate for Palestine" it rightly belongs to Israel.

Regarding the arbitrary detachment of Mandated Territory by the Rhodes Ceasefire Agreement to form the Gaza Strip, 1948-1967

After 1948, the Gaza Strip came under Egyptian control but was never annexed to Egypt. Egyptian Ministerial Order Number 274 issued on 8 August 1948 vested an Egyptian Administrator-General with all the powers of the High Commissioner. According to Order Number 6 issued on 1 June 1948, the Administrator-General declared that all laws in force during the Mandate would continue to be applicable in the Gaza Strip. From November 1956 to March 1957 the area came under Israeli military rule during which the Israeli Area Commander issued several orders which were annulled by the Egyptian Administrator-General, who upon re-assuming control in March 1957, declared that all laws and regulation in force prior to the Israeli invasion of 1956 would continue to be in force. On 25 November 1955, the Basic Law of Gaza was issued by the Prime Minister of Egypt. According to Section 23 of this law, a legislative council was established to pass laws to which were then to be approved by the Administrator-General of the Gaza strip. On 5 March 1962, a new constitution of the Gaza Strip was issued by the President of the United Arab Republic (a short-lived confederation between Egypt and Syria) confirming the legislative Council. In its brief existence (1955-1967), the Council made many regulations and passed several laws relating to labor, the professions, matters of personal status and the Moslem Religious Courts. But the bulk of the laws remained intact.

So in real historical documented fact what entity that existed called "Palestine", was in reality a British civil administration area carved out of the previous Ottoman Turkish Empire. An area known previously as "Southern Syria" after World War I which according to the San Remo conference, and the Treaty of Sèvres  and later ratified in the Treaty of Lausanne signed in the Palais de Rumine, Lausanne, Switzerland July 24th 1923, created the geopolitical entity called "The Mandated Area of Palestine".

Colonel Sir Tatton Benvenuto Mark Sykes was one of the authors of The Sykes–Picot "highly cynical" war time agreement which formed the basis for the Anglo-French Modus Vivendi in the subsequent partitioning of the Ottoman Empire in the advent of the defeat. The Anglo-French Modus Vivendi, provided a framework for the Occupied Enemy Territory Administration in the Levant in the 1918-1922 period.
As atypical of many upper class Englishmen of the Late Victorian age, Colonel Mark Sykes had a classical upper-class education and he readily recalled Roman History and the Christian references in the Bible to the "Holy Land", as seen in many maps of the "Holyland", as "Palestine"(Arabic: Filastin, Greek: Palaistine; Latin: Palaestina).
As a senior member of the Arab Bureau in Cairo, Sykes suggested to the League of Nations that the Mandatory Area conquered from the Ottoman Turkish Empire in WWI be named "Palestine" in order NOT to inflame animosity and hatred among their WWI Arab allies. Mark Sykes realized that to preserve the British interests, specifically in the strategic need of Arab oil that there was a need to defer from using a Zionistic term, against the expressed wishes of the British Government that had issued the Balfour Declaration.

The Sykes–Picot agreement effectively divided the Ottoman provinces outside the Arabian Peninsula into areas of British and French control and influence. The British and French controlled countries were divided by the Sykes–Picot line. Shortly after the war, the French ceded Palestine and Mosul to the British. Mandates in the Levant and Mesopotamia were assigned at the April 1920 San Remo conference following the Sykes–Picot framework

The agreement allocated to Britain control of what is today southern Israel and Palestine, Jordan and southern Iraq, and an additional small area that included the ports of Haifa and Acre to allow strategic access to the Mediterranean.  France got control of southeastern Turkey, northern Iraq, Syria and Lebanon.

With the implementation of the British "Mandate" and the recognition given the land by the Balfour Declaration, the Jews of the pre-World War I "Yishuv" that resided in the Mandated Areas readily called themselves; “Palestinian Jews of Eretz Yisrael”, as seen on all currency issued because of the conditions stated IN THE MANDATE!

At this point I would like to draw your attention to the "preamble" and these three articles from the Mandate given by the League of Nations:

Whereas the Principal Allied Powers have selected His Britannic Majesty as the Mandatory for Palestine…Whereas the Principal Allied Powers have also agreed that the Mandatory should be responsible for putting into effect the declaration originally made on November 2nd, 1917, by the Government of His Britannic Majesty, and adopted by the said Powers, in favor of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, it being clearly understood that nothing should be done which might prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country; and
Whereas recognition has thereby been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country

ART. 2.

The Mandatory shall be responsible for placing the country under such political, administrative and economic conditions as will secure the establishment of the Jewish national home, as laid down in the preamble, and the development of self-governing institutions, and also for safeguarding the civil and religious rights of all the inhabitants of Palestine, irrespective of race and religion.

ART. 4.

An appropriate Jewish agency shall be recognized as a public body for the purpose of advising and co-operating with the Administration of Palestine in such economic, social and other matters as may affect the establishment of the Jewish national home and the interests of the Jewish population in Palestine, and, subject always to the control of the Administration to assist and take part in the development of the country.
The Zionist organization, so long as its organization and constitution are in the opinion of the Mandatory appropriate, shall be recognized as such agency. It shall take steps in consultation with His Britannic Majesty's Government to secure the co-operation of all Jews who are willing to assist in the establishment of the Jewish national home.

ART. 5.

The Mandatory shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to, or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign Power.

What is important to note, from these quotes from the Legal document -The Mandate for Palestine- issued by the League of Nations and later ratified by the United Nations, and is TOTALLY ignored in ALL discussions, is the glaring fact of the absence of two terms / words: Arabs and Palestinians as a "people". What it DOES say is; "inhabitants of Palestine"!

What we DO SEE is, "affect and secure the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people."

Inquiring minds wish to know how this glaring fact is deviously and glaringly ignored!

This Mandated Territory operated under a British administration from 1919 until the Partition UNR181 and the British withdrawal on May 15th,1948. 

As stated in the Mandate issued by the League of Nations, the Mandate was "entrusted" to; "His Britannic Majesty as the Mandatory for Palestine" as a "a sacred trust of civilization" !

However, as we Jews experience it the British Government TOTALLY and abysmally failed to accomplish the set goal "entrusted" to them to; "establish a of a national home for the Jewish people "in Palestine". 

In conclusion:

The present-day "Palestinians" are an Arab people, with Arab culture, Arabic language and Arab history. They now have their own Arab states from where most of them they came into the Land of Israel after the Moslem Conquest in 635CE .

The Arab dwellers of Judaea and Shomron Aka the "West Bank" as well as Gaza underwent a kind of anthropological miracle and discovered that they were suddenly a people the "Palestinians" in 1967 - something they did not know the day before.
Of course, these people having a new identity have had to build themselves a history, namely, they had to steal some others' history, and the only way that the victims of the theft would not complain is if those victims do no longer existed.

Therefore, the Palestinian leaders have claimed two contradictory lineages from ancient peoples that inhabited the Land of Israel: the Canaanites and the Philistines. Historically these peoples were either assimilated and absorbed by other groups and disappeared as separate peoples.

"As I lived in Palestine, everyone I knew could trace their heritage back to the original country their great grandparents came from. Everyone knew their origin was not from the Canaanites, but ironically, this is the kind of stuff our education included. The fact is that today's Palestinians are immigrants from the surrounding nations! I grew up well knowing the history and origins of today's Palestinians as being from Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Christians from Greece, Muslim Sherkas from Russia, Muslims from Bosnia, and the Jordanians next door. My grandfather, who was a dignitary in Bethlehem, almost lost his life by Abdul Qader Al-Husseni (the leader of the Palestinian revolution and nephew of the Grand Mufti) after being accused of selling land to Jews. He used to tell us that his village "Beit Sahur " in Bethlehem County was empty before his father settled in the area with six other families..." Walid Shoebat (Arabic: وليد شويبات‎)-
