Changes

Anti-Israel propagandists have long attempted to rewrite history by conflating the ancient geographic term “Palestine” with relatively recent waves of Arab immigration to the region. This rhetorical sleight of hand is designed to manufacture a sense of ancient, indigenous identity—when in truth, the vast majority of so-called “Palestinians” are descendants of Arab migrants who arrived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, drawn by the economic opportunities created by early Jewish development.

Even the founding figures of the Palestinian nationalist movement didn’t pretend otherwise. Aforementioned Ahmad Shukeiry, the first chairman of the PLO—before suddenly “discovering” a Palestinian identity in the 1960s—openly declared in 1956 that the land was “Southern Syria.” His statement reflects the reality that, prior to the Arab world’s failed attempt to destroy Israel in 1948, there was no serious movement calling for a separate “Palestinian” state or identity.

Early on, their first leader, [[Grand Mufti of Jerusalem]] (infamous now as Hitler's mufti), initially viewed Palestine as part of a larger Pan-Arab federation, envisioning it as a southern province within a Greater Syria centered in Damascus. His early nationalist efforts focused on this concept of a unified Arab state encompassing the Levant, including what would become Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.

This sudden shift was never about national liberation. It was—and remains—a political tool, designed not to build a future for Arabs in the region, but to deny the Jewish people their rightful, historic, and legal homeland. In stark contrast, the Jewish people are the only group with an unbroken, 3,000-year connection to the Land of Israel—religiously, culturally, and historically.

The creation of a “Palestinian” identity in the mid-20th century was not an act of self-determination—it was a calculated move to undermine the Jewish state's legitimacy and fuel ongoing rejectionism and terror. Recognizing this truth is essential to cutting through decades of misinformation and standing firmly with Israel’s right to exist, defend itself, and thrive.

{{Cquote|Trouw [Dutch newspaper] March 3, 1977: Statement by Zuheir Mohsein, Member of the Supreme Council of the PLO: “There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are all part of one nation. It is only for political reasons that we carefully underline our Palestinian identity, because it is in the interest of the Arabs to encourage a separate Palestinian identity in contrast to Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity is there only for tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new expedient to continue the fight against Zionism and for Arab unity.”

Kruedener added in the email that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) strikes near the UN post prior to his death were "necessary," and that the IDF fire was not intentionally targeting the post. In the past a UN vehicle was used as a cover to capture an Israeli soldier who was then tortured to death.
