even in our current democracies discrimination exists. It is not a good excuse for Zionists who majority of them was European recent immigrants to force a state on people by mass displacing the local population. it is antisemitic two thing the two semetic group can't live together
> after the formation of a large army in the wake of the establishment of the state, we will abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine - Ben Gurion
@hiphopheaven "Recent immigrants" who fled Hitler in the 1930s. That’s who made up the majority of Jews in the territory by 1947. Would you have preferred they died in the gas chambers?

@hiphopheaven
You’re also mistaken. ‘Semitic’ refers to languages, not peoples. It was 19th-century racists who invented the idea of ‘Semitic peoples.’ In the 1930s, Arab ambassadors even asked the Nazis if they were targeted by ‘antisemitism’, and the Nazis explicitly said no. (Source: "Nazi Propaganda for the Arab World", Jeffrey Herf, 2009.) So stop twisting the term: antisemitism has always meant structural discrimination against Jews—and only Jews. Arabophobia and Islamophobia exist separately; there’s no reason to co-opt the term except to delegitimize Jews. And that… -
@hiphopheaven @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae Sure, but no one wanted equal rights back then. Moreover, one only needs to look at the other countries in the region during the 20th century. After independence, equal rights were not particularly established, and Jews continued to face structural discriminatio
@vinteuil_ltp @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae this is such bullshit
In 1884 the first Yemenites settled in Silwan and for 45 years lived peacefully and on very good terms with their Arab neighbors. It seemed that the people of Silwan, which was known to be a poor village, found common ground with the poor Jewish Yemenites that lived among them.

Despite the attempt to depict the 1929 Arab Riot as a violent incident against the Jews in Silwan, it is clear that it was not the case. From a letter of gratitude that the Yemenite Jews sent to their Arab neighbors, we can learn about the devotion and benevolence that the Arabs have shown towards the Yemenites by undauntedly protecting them, and also about the amity and good neighborly relations that prevailed between the two communities.

No I preferred that they lived in peace with Palestinians instead of ethnically cleansing Palestinians to create a state. Palestinians has nothing to do with Hitler and in fact fought along the allies against the axis. It is so disgusting that you want to make me look like I support genociding jews when israel is the one right now genociding palestinians and talking about greater Israel

@hiphopheaven @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae Oh please, you take one example and generalize (+ you could give the source when you quote an article). And you give only one part of the story. Even Wikipedia is more nuanced than that.

And that…@vinteuil_ltp yes i know it refer to a group of language therefore both Palestinians and israelis are semetic by language . When arab took control of the land there was no major progrom that means many ethnically jews was simply converted to Israel and was Arabized. Both people are descendent of the Cananites

The Jewish Yemenite Settlement in Silwan
In the late 19th century, Jewish Yemenites moved to live in the Arab village of Silwan. Nowadays, among many parties, specifically right-wingers and settlers,…

fact is the region was pretty stable until the European colonizer came and forced a state on the local population with ethenic cleansing

@hiphopheaven I totally recognize Israel is genociding Palestinians right now. But you totally idealize history. There were pogroms in Palestine too. Peace needs to be created, and it supposes to work for that.

@hiphopheaven @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae Yeah, the region was stable: Jews were discriminated and ghettoized, and sometimes, a pogrom was taking place. No equal rights.

@vinteuil_ltp i am not idolizing the history Arab definitely did wrong things and war crimes but it doesn't change the fact that Israel is the settler colonial power who want to expend in country they signed a peace deal with today. Peace won't happen until Israel recognize that occupation will only cause more violence. PA recognize israel and stopped attacking it so what should happen is for israel to slowly remove the colonies in the west bank and let PA deal with Hamas if it don't surrender

@vinteuil_ltp @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae no, just like black people in the usa they fought for their right instead of declaring a black dominent state within the USA. You should know that there was jews who believed in that way rather than creating a state by mass displacing people back then too

@hiphopheaven @raymaccarthy @antoinechambertloir @rae Man, that's exactly the story of Liberia. And no one cared about the dramatic civil war which took place at the beginning of the 2000s there.
Yes, I perfectly know there were Jews who were thinking that, especially the Bund. The problem is that they finished in the gas chambers. That's exactly why history is useful: we learn what kind of emancipation strategies don't work, even if they are more attractive.

@vinteuil_ltp it was impossible to evacuate all jews from Germany. So many jews had no choice but to fight in Germany . In other countries non aligned with Germany they would not been gassed, they could have demanded better condition with no mass murder. As history showed us arabs population and jewish population lived together. Even during arab massacres of jews post zionism movement there are other arabs did protect their neighbors and limited the causalities.
