Israel's goal has always been ethnic cleansing, as evident from the Zionist movement's desire to establish a Jewish state in Palestine by removing the Arab population. Zionist leaders openly wrote about expelling Arabs and taking their place. The movement also sought alliances with European imperialists, including Nazi Germany, to achieve their objectives. Israel's founding on May 14th, marked as Israeli Independence Day, is remembered by Palestinians as the Nakba, a series of massacres that displaced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent speech indicates an intention to continue the expulsion of Palestinians. The Zionist movement has long expressed genocidal intent towards Palestinians, and the question remains whether the world will allow it to happen again.

The speaker examines the claim of ethnic cleansing by Israel against Palestinians by presenting population statistics. They highlight the significant decrease in Jewish populations in various Arab countries since 1948, while the Arab population in Israel has increased. The Jewish population in Morocco, Algeria, Indonesia, Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon has drastically declined, while the Arab population in Israel has grown to over 2 million. The speaker questions who is actually engaging in ethnic cleansing based on these statistics.

Speaker explains that Palestine is not new to many; October 7 highlighted a long history. Beginning with a post–World War II UN plan (1947) to create a Jewish state on part of Palestine, despite Palestinian non-participation. About 750,000 Palestinians were displaced as part of the partition. Palestinians call this the Nakba. Israel declared itself a state and pursued lands in the Arab-state zones; by 1967's Six Day War, it had seized the West Bank and Gaza, prompting UN calls to withdraw. In 1974 the UN recognized the PLO as Palestine's official government, while Israel funded groups to destabilize it. Intifadas followed (1987 and beyond); Oslo accords failed to stop occupation. Israel then funded Hamas; Gaza was blockaded; the West Bank built a barrier; movement restricted; starvation of Gazans for years. The speaker condemns the actions as genocide and urges ending U.S. support for Israel.

This is a summary of the historical events that led to the shrinking of Palestinian lands and the establishment and expansion of the state of Israel. In 1917, Britain supported a Jewish state in Palestine, leading to tensions between Arabs and Jews. In 1947, the UN approved a plan to split Palestine into two states, Israel and Palestine. Israel declared independence in 1948, resulting in the expulsion of Palestinians from their homes. The first Arab-Israeli war broke out, and Israel gained control of most of historical Palestine. In 1967, Israel occupied the rest of Palestine after the Six-Day War. The conflict continued with the rise of Palestinian movements like the PLO and Hamas. Peace agreements and negotiations have been unsuccessful, leading to ongoing violence and Israeli control over Palestinian territories.

In this video, the speaker discusses the concept of ethnic cleansing in relation to the events of 1948. They explain that ethnic cleansing involves one group removing another group from a mixed ethnic population. The speaker argues that there was an ideological will within the Zionist movement to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian population. They refute the idea that some streams of Zionist thinking believed a Jewish state could be achieved through mass immigration without the need for expulsion. Instead, they assert that the goal was to bring as many Jews as possible to Palestine while finding ways to remove Arabs from the land. The speaker concludes that this approach aligns with the settler colonialism nature of Zionism.

Israel is accused of being a racist country, founded on the expulsion and massacre of Arabs. Polls show that a significant number of Israelis hold discriminatory views towards Arabs, and these views are reflected in government policies. Laws restrict intermarriage and deny certain rights to non-Jews. Advocating for the genocide of Palestinians does not hinder political careers, and some politicians openly express hatred towards Arabs. Israel portrays itself as a victim, but its actions suggest a goal of genocide. The current situation, including the cutting off of basic services to Gaza, aligns with a long-standing pattern of discrimination and violence.

Israel was founded in 1948 after evicting Palestinians from their homes, imprisoning young people, and killing civilians. The Zionist movement began in the 1890s, with the first wave of Jewish immigration to Palestine. After World War I, Britain received Palestine as a mandate and immigration continued. In 1947, the UN proposed a partition, giving 56.47% of Palestine to the Jewish state. The establishment of Israel led to the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, with 700,000 forced to leave. The Arab-Israeli war in 1967 resulted in more Palestinian refugees. Palestinians launched intifadas in 1987 and 2000, facing Israeli occupation and attacks. Israel withdrew from parts of Gaza and the West Bank but continued to oppress Palestinians. The US recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in 2017. Today, Israel occupies 85% of Palestinian land, causing immense suffering and displacement.

The ethnic cleansing of Northern Gaza is occurring openly, with Israel's operation aimed at removing every person from the region. Approximately 400,000 Palestinians remain in Northern Gaza, and Israel is targeting them through bombings. Aid supplies have been cut off, and UNRA has been banned from operating, making them targets as well. Israel has stated that once most people are removed, they will not be allowed to return. This situation aligns with previous warnings about the general's plan. The actions being taken are described as ethnic cleansing and genocide. It is essential to raise awareness about these events and share this information widely.

Two, they're gonna try to ethnically cleanse Gaza. They're talking about basically removing 2,500,000 people from there.

Many Palestinians were forcibly removed from their village, but it didn't stop there. They were not allowed to leave peacefully. Instead, they were killed without any justification.

Israel's founding was based on the idea of a Jewish state in Palestine, which already belonged to the Palestinians. Expelling and massacring hundreds of thousands of Arabs in a process called the Nakba, Israel was founded through racial exclusion. This culture of exclusion is evident in videos showing Israelis calling for the death of Arabs, insulting religious figures, and committing hate crimes against Palestinians. The presence of Palestinians serves as a reminder of the violence that founded Israel and the fear of reclaiming their land. Polls also highlight this sentiment.

Israel wanted peace with the Arabic world since its existence. The PLO was founded in 1964 when the West Bank was in Jordan's hands and Gaza was in Egypt's, not because of occupation, but to eliminate Jews. Palestinians lost Gaza and the West Bank in 1967 because they preempted an attack against Israel. In 2000, Ehud Barak offered 97% of territories back, but it was refused. In 2005, Israel withdrew from Gaza, removing its people and even Jewish remains from cemeteries. Greenhouses exporting $50 million in flowers were left for Palestinians, but they destroyed synagogues and greenhouses. Hamas then had an election. A woman was elected to the cabinet of Hamas because she had videos of her sons dressing as suicide bombers. Hamas put Palestinians in a prison in Gaza. Gaza could have been Singapore, but instead, Hamas built tunnels instead of helping their people. Palestinians brought this on themselves.

Israel's founding involved numerous massacres and the displacement of Palestinians. One such massacre was at the Arab village of Deryassen, where Jewish fighters killed around 110 Arabs, mostly women, children, and the elderly. The Israeli military at the time consisted of criminal gangs seeking to establish a Zionist state. The atrocities committed, including throwing people into ovens and wells, were part of a strategy to scare neighboring villages and clear the land. Without these massacres and ethnic cleansing, Israel would not exist. The continuing struggles with Palestinians are seen as a result of a strategy that was stopped too early.

Israel has a right to exist and defend itself, but Palestinians are often ignored. Palestinians are treated as third-class citizens and face apartheid-like conditions. The Israeli government evicts Palestinians from their land, which is then used for Israeli settlements. Palestinians have limited control over their lives, with restrictions on building permits, water supply, solar energy, medical treatment, electricity, fishing, and transportation. The US government supports Israel and considers Hamas, the governing party in Gaza, a terrorist organization. Palestinians have chosen Hamas due to their frustration with Israeli oppression. Israel and the US need to adopt new approaches towards Palestinians. The Palestinian people face apartheid, deprivation, and civil rights violations. This information is readily available, but one must actively seek it out.

The speaker claims that Israel views the October 7th attacks as an opportunity for ethnic cleansing in Gaza to solve a demographic problem. This allegation is based on data in the Israeli press, where, according to the speaker, Israelis have openly discussed this idea. The speaker states that the population of Gaza is largely composed of descendants from the 1948 ethnic cleansing, and that there was another massive ethnic cleansing after the 1967 war in the West Bank. The speaker suggests that a third attempt at ethnic cleansing in Gaza is not surprising. According to the speaker, literature on the creation of Israel thoroughly documents that ethnic cleansing was discussed by Zionists from the beginning, as it was seen as necessary to create a greater Israel. The speaker rejects the idea that Palestine was a land without people for a people without land.

For Israelis, 1948 was a year of creation. "For Palestinians, 1948 was a catastrophe." "'A people without land for a land without people.'" "'The United Nations partition plan called for giving 56% of the country to the Jewish state.'" "'Jerusalem would become a separate entity administered by the UN.'" "In 1940, Josef Weitz wrote in his diary, the only way is to transfer the Arabs from here to neighboring countries, all of them, except perhaps Bethlehem, Nazareth, and Old Jerusalem." "'the word retaher in Hebrew, which is to cleanse or to destroy, which is the Hashmid, or to expel, which is the Negaresh.'" "'Dar Yassin were only citizens. The village was completely peaceful.'" "'The operation with its very ominous name cleansing the leaven.'" "'drive them out.'" "'Seven to 800,000 Palestinians had fled their homes, about eight out of every 10 Palestinians who lived in the area that became Israel.'" "'The Zionist dream became reality as David Ben Gurion, the leader of the Jewish people in Palestine, read the declaration of independence.'" "'The state of Israel now covered 78% of the land.'" "'Refugees from the nineteen forty eight war and their descendants now number over 5,000,000.'"

Israel is described as a racist country founded on the expulsion and massacre of Palestinians. Videos and polls show instances of hate crimes, discrimination, and segregation against Arabs. These views are not only prevalent in society but also represented in government through discriminatory laws. The nation state law grants exclusive rights to Jews, while the Nakba law makes it illegal to acknowledge the expulsions of Palestinians. Racist housing discrimination is legalized through the admissions committee law. Politicians advocating for the genocide of Palestinians hold high positions in government. Israel's recent actions in Gaza are seen as part of a long-standing goal of genocide.

Israel's founding was based on the idea of a Jewish state in Palestine, which already belonged to the Palestinians. Expelling and massacring hundreds of thousands of Arabs in a process called the Nakba, Israel was established. This led to a culture that fosters racial exclusion, with videos showing Israelis calling for the death of Arabs, insulting religious figures, and committing hate crimes against Palestinians. The presence of Palestinians serves as a reminder of the violence that founded Israel and the fear of reclaiming their land. Polls also indicate support for discriminatory views.

If Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from Israel in 1948 to areas like the West Bank and Gaza, focusing on the entire region obscures the initial expulsion. Including areas Palestinians were displaced *to* distorts the data and masks the ethnic cleansing. An honest approach would focus solely on the population changes in the specific region from which Palestinians were expelled, which would reveal a sharp decrease in 1948. Israel continues expelling Palestinians within the Palestinian territories, such as from one area of the West Bank to another. Counting the population of the entire region masks this displacement. Instead, one should examine displacement rates or the growth of illegal Israeli settlements.

Zionism aims to establish a Jewish state at the expense of the indigenous Palestinian population, privileging one group over another. This ideology denies Palestinians equal rights compared to Israelis. The distinction between events in 1948 and 1967 is misleading; at its core, Zionism involves the expulsion of Palestinians, resulting in millions of refugees, including my family. Between 1948 and 1967, Palestinians who were citizens of Israel lived under military rule. My family, originally from a town in Galilee, was ethnically cleansed in 1948 and has never been allowed to return, despite being citizens of Israel, and are classified as present absentees.

Israel is not a democratic or Jewish state. It is Jewish by ethnicity and supremacy, not religion. Israel was built on top of Palestine and the indigenous Palestinian people. The existence of Israelis is dependent on others. To become legitimate, Israel must acknowledge the rights of the oppressed indigenous people. The state was founded on ethnic cleansing and segregation, with explicitly racist laws. Over 50 laws and practices are implicitly racist, falling under the legal definition of apartheid. This is a serious crime under international law, akin to genocide. The Shin Bet, Israel's security service, monitors those opposing the Jewish character of the state.

Israel's war of independence caused a humanitarian catastrophe, with 3 quarters of a million Palestinians violently pushed off their land. Before Arab armies joined, Israel committed 16 massacres and ethnically cleansed 200,000 people. Despite the myth of Arab armies attacking first, battles were fought on land designated for Palestinians by the UN.

The situation for Palestinians is catastrophic due to egregious actions, including collective punishment. Israel's behavior flouts international rules. Peace is impossible without acknowledging the cost to Palestinians and recognizing that Israel's identity is intertwined with the Palestinian tragedy. Israel was constructed on the ruins of Palestinian society through mass dispossession. The Oslo Accords state Israel bears no responsibility for the costs of the occupation, despite decades of military control. An Israeli journalist stated that Israel took over the country from the British, who left infrastructure that allowed them to build Israel. If they had taken Palestine the way they left Gaza, there would be no Israel. Gaza is one of the most criminal places on earth because of Israeli occupation policies, for which they bear no responsibility. Victimizing others because of past victimization is unacceptable and must have limits.

In Gaza, there is a genocide with 12,000 children killed, while 30 Israeli children were also killed. 30,000 Palestinian civilians and 72,000 people were killed or injured. Israel is also causing starvation by blocking food supplies. This is genocide, collective punishment, and ethnic cleansing, with 70% of homes destroyed and hospitals damaged.

In 1931, there were over 850,000 Palestinian Arabs in Palestine. Jewish immigration increased due to the rise of Hitler, leading to a proposal to divide the land into two states: one for Jews and one for Arabs. However, this plan disregarded the hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Arabs who had lived there for generations. By the end of 1947, Zionist paramilitary forces, particularly the Haganah, implemented a brutal plan called Plan Dalit or Plan B. This involved destroying Arab villages through fires, explosions, and mines. As a result, around 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled and more than 500 villages were destroyed.
