In the first picture,
a mass grave for the indigenous Indians who were massacred at
Wounded Knee (their home) in 1890. Victims of Colonialist
Expansionism and disregard for the lives of the indigenous
population. In the second picture, some of the civilians who were
victims of the Qana Massacre, killed (in their homes) in 2006.
They too were victims of the ideology of Colonialist Expansionism
and racism.

A little history about the Massacre at Wounded Knee
Dec. 29, 1890: 116 Years Ago Today: By TIM GIAGO (NANWICA KCIJI) a
Special to McClatchy Tribune written under the title: "Never Forget,
Today marks 116 years since the massacre at Wounded Knee" the last
genocide against the Native Americans." But unfortunately, Zionist
massacres shall never end until the last Palestinian is uprooted
from his land and/or massacred on it, or the last Zionist
understands that this land is not his, it belongs to its owners who
are free to accept whoever they want to live with them in peace or
not…
They, both the colonizers of Palestine and the Americans, like those
of the rest of colonized world, grant themselves cart blanche to
exterminate and/or transfer the respective indigenous populations of
the targeted lands, because the colonizers consider them
"barbarians" thus they are not worthy of own their lands.
Zionist racist historian, Benny Morris, like the
colonizers of the Americas, considers Arabs to be Barbarians. He
replied to Ari Shavit’s question during an interview for the Zionist
daily, Haaretz, entitled Survival of the Fittest? January 16, 2004:
Are you a neo-conservative? Do you read the current
historical reality in the terms of Samuel Huntington? Morris
replied: "I think there is a clash between civilizations here
[as Huntington argues]. I think the West today resembles the Roman
Empire of the fourth, fifth and sixth centuries: The barbarians are
attacking it and they may also destroy it." (Noting that those
who attacked the Roman Empire are the Nordics who came from northern
Europe to attack the Roman Empire, that is exactly like the European
Zionists who came to Palestine to colonize it, both had no roots in
the invaded lands.)
Shavit asked: The Muslims are barbarians, then?
Morris replied: "I think the values I mentioned earlier are
values of barbarians—the attitude toward democracy, freedom,
openness; the attitude toward human life. In that sense they are
barbarians. The Arab world as it is today is barbarian."
One of the earlier ideologists of Zionism, Vladimir Jabotinsky, who
was an inspirational figure of Morris, contradicted his claim that
Arabs and Moslems are barbarians, he said: "Any native people
view their country as their national home, of which they will be
complete masters. They will never voluntarily allow a new master. So
it is for the Arabs. Compromisers among us try to convince us that
the Arabs are some kind of fools who can be tricked with hidden
formulations of our basic goals. I flatly refuse to accept this view
of the Palestinian Arabs." This doesn’t mean that Jabotinsky is
not a racist, but he said so to justify the use of force to uproot
Palestinian Arabs from their land, and as he rightly said they will
never willingly give up their land, as they are not fools to be
tricked with hidden formulas…
Jabotinsky proceeded saying: "They have the precise psychology
that we have. They look upon Palestine with the same instinctive
love and true fervor that any Aztec looked upon his Mexico or any
Sioux upon his prairie. Each people will struggle against colonizers
until the last spark of hope that they can avoid the dangers of
conquest and colonization is extinguished. The Palestinians will
struggle in this way until there is hardly a spark of hope".
(Actually they will fight up to the last drop of blood in their
veins, which was proved by their continuous resistance against
Zionist and British colonization for a century and a quarter.)
Massacres
Shavit asked Morris: Are you trying to argue that
Palestinian terrorism derives from some sort of deep cultural
problem? He replied: "There is a deep problem in Islam.
It’s a world whose values are different. A world in which human life
doesn’t have the same value as it does in the West, in which
freedom, democracy, openness and creativity are alien."
Morris, although considered by some as a prominent historian, but he
still adopts unfounded Zionist propaganda, which he could possibly
not be convinced of. What he considered as values of democracy,
freedom, openness is simply a twisted meaning of Democracy, freedom
and openness, which cannot be monopolized and denied to others,
somebody who denies them to others cannot be democratic, a believer
in freedom and open minded.
Colonialists are supremacist, they have convinced themselves that it
is their right to sail to a land and tell its people: We want this
land, because we are civilized and you are barbarians; so you have
to get the hell out of it, don’t argue, otherwise you will be
uprooted from it by hook or by crook. If they refuse to accept this
illogic they are slaughtered and/or kicked out. A European
colonialist "civilization" cannot but clash with the local’s
so-called "barbarism". The first prime minister of the Zionist
entity, David Ben-Gurion argued: "that the Arabs understand only
force and that ultimate force is the one thing that will persuade
them to accept our presence here." And as per Morris "Ben-Gurion was
right.." No, in spite of a continued Palestinian holocaust for a
century and a quarter, Palestinian Arabs are continuing their
resistance to Zionist occupation and massacres, which means they are
civilized or else they do not understand the meaning of freedom and
patriotism.
The tragedy of the so-called "Red Indians", the indigenous
population of the Americas has a stunning similarity with the
Palestinian Nakbah; both are stories of invasions of foreigners to
lands that belong to their indigenous populations with the aim of
uprooting and/or massacring them.
In both cases the invaders came to these lands with the intention of
ethnically cleansing them by means of terror and the force of arms
to uproot or commit massacres against them, and in both cases their
villages and towns were demolished to be replaced by colonies for
the invaders, that is as Morris called them, the white Europeans.
Jabotinsky referred to the "Red Indians": "The natives will
always struggle obstinately against the colonists – and it is all
the same whether they are cultured or uncultured. The comrades in
arms of [Hernan] Cortez or [Francisco] Pizarro conducted themselves
like brigands. The Redskins fought with uncompromising fervor
against both evil and good-hearted colonizers. The natives struggled
because any kind of colonization anywhere at anytime is inadmissible
to any native people."
The story of the massacre at Wounded Knee gives an example of many,
many, many "Red Indian" villages that were demolished by the white
European invaders unnecessarily - to create space for their colonies
and express their racism. Zionist racist historian, professor Benny
Morris of the David Ben-Gurion University in "Beer Sheba", who dug
the details of Zionist massacres, rape and ethnic cleansing out of
the archives of the Haganah, gave the example of the creation of the
United States of America as an example of Zionist ethnic cleansing,
massacres and rape of Palestinian Arabs to "justify" their uprooting
from their ancestral land.
Benny Morris replied in answer to the question: "And morally
speaking, you have no problem with that deed (massacring the
Palestinians." "That is correct. Even the great
American democracy could not have been created without the
annihilation of the Indians, there are cases in which the overall,
final good justifies harsh and cruel acts that are committed in the
course of history." Morris added in relation to the Algerian
war of independence, which, according to him should not be compared
with the so-called Zionist so-called "war of independence," stated:
"I am trying to be realistic. I know it doesn't always sound
politically correct, but correctness poisons history in any case(!),
it impedes our ability to see the truth. And I identify with Albert
Camus... He was considered left-winger and a person of high morals,
but when he referred to the Algerian problem he placed his mother
ahead of morality. Preserving my people is more important than
universal moral concepts." Thus he supports the "morality" of
European colonialism of the rest of the world, as we quoted him here
above, to commit war crimes. "The massacre at Wounded Knee" is but
one example out of hundreds if not thousands atrocities of various
types that European colonizers committed in the Americas, not to
speak about the rest of the world.
In both cases racist colonizers of both the Americas and Palestine
and other Arab lands, the destruction of both the people and
civilization were the aim practiced by people of European extract
against the owners of the land. Both European colonizers of the
Americas and the mostly European Zionists who were encouraged,
assisted and armed by colonialist European nations committed ethnic
cleansing, and practiced massacred and demolition of a whole
society.
For Morris and his Zionist predecessors, as well as all other
colonialists, ethics and morality is nonsense, the aim justifies the
means: "Whether through the Balfour Declaration or the Mandate,
external force is a necessity for establishing in the country
conditions of rule and defense through which the local population,
regardless of what it wishes, will be deprived of the possibility of
impeding our colonization, administratively or physically. Force
must play its role – with strength and without indulgence. In this,
there are no meaningful differences between our militarists and our
vegetarians. One prefers an Iron Wall of Jewish bayonets; the other
an Iron Wall of English bayonets.
To the hackneyed reproach that this point of view is unethical, I
answer, 'absolutely untrue.' This is our ethic. There is no other
ethic. As long as there is the faintest spark of hope for the Arabs
to impede us, they will not sell these hopes – not for any sweet
words nor for any tasty morsel, because this is not a rabble but a
people, a living people. And no people makes such enormous
concessions on such fateful questions, except when there is no hope
left, until we have removed every opening visible in the Iron Wall".
The Iron Wall – "O Zheleznoi Stene" – Rassvet, November 4, 1923.
Wounded Knee, as we said above, is but one example of the atrocities
committed during the colonization of America, and likewise during
the so-called Zionist "war of Liberation" in Palestine, hundreds of
Palestinian villages were demolished and leveled to the ground; so
as to leave no place for Palestinian Arabs to ever think of
returning to their land, but this was no hindrance to Palestinian
Arab resistance to fight for this goal, to return to their land and
rebuild their demolished homes, towns and villages. Zionist
colonialist ambitions are unlimited. They were not satisfied with
what their 1948 leader, Ben-Gurion, accomplished, namely occupying
78% of Palestine, they occupied the rest of it in 1967 and they are
trying to fully uproot those who remained of them in historic
Palestine; Morris was speaking on their behalf when he replied to
Ari Shavit’s question saying: "But I do not identify with
Ben-Gurion. I think he made a serious historical mistake in 1948.
Even though he understood the demographic issue and the need to
establish a Jewish state without a large Arab minority, he got cold
feet during the war. In the end, he faltered." Meaning that he
blames Ben-Gurion for not completing his full ethnic cleansing of
Palestine. And I don’t think that at least the early colonialists of
the Americas did not regret such a "mistake", although as lip
service some U.S. officials apologized for the crimes committed
against the so-called "Red Indians" leaving only a few alive.
Tim Giago gave the following example about the savageness of the
European colonizers: "When a soldier of George Armstrong
Custer's former troop, the 7th Cavalry, tried to wrest a hidden
rifle from a deaf Lakota warrior after all of the other weapons had
already been confiscated from Sitanka's (Big Foot) band of Lakota
people, the deafening report of that single shot caused pandemonium
among the soldiers and they opened up with their Hotchkiss machine
guns upon the unarmed men, women and children."
Zionist fighters of the so-called "war of independence" of the
Zionist entity, which is actually the war of stealing and
colonization of Palestine, did not need to have a deaf indigenous
fighter nor surrender his rifle to slaughter him and the rest of his
tribe. For Zionists it was enough for an uprooted Palestinian from
the city of Al-Lid, like the rest of the uprooted 750,000
Palestinian Arabs, to try to prevent the invaders from stealing the
valuables he had on him to be shot dead by Zionist invaders. George
Habash, a medical student at the time, said in an interview:
"While thousands of men and women of all ages including babies and
old men and women uprooted from our hometown, Al-Lid, were ordered
by the invaders to run eastward up the hills leading to the Jordan
River. We didn't know where we were going, the soldiers were telling
us walk, and we walked, it was a hot Ramadan day, some of the people
around us were saying this is the end of time, this is hell. We
reached the outskirts of the town where there was a Zionist
checkpoint for searching the flood of uprooted human beings, we
didn't have arms. It seems that our neighbor, Amin Hanhan, was
hiding some money; so he didn't accept to be searched. A soldier
shot him dead in front of us. His mother and sister ran to him
weeping, his younger brother was my classmate, and we used to study
together..."
TIM GIAGO (NANWICA KCIJI) told us the story of the band of racist
soldiers who were decorated with the nation’s highest Medal of
Honor!: "The Massacre at Wounded Knee was called the last great
battle between the United States and the Indians. The true version
of the events of that day were polished and sanitized for the
consumption of most Americans. Twenty-three soldiers of the 7th
Cavalry were awarded this nation's highest honor, the Medal of
Honor, for the murder of nearly 300 innocent and unarmed men, women
and children." Benny Morris, who calls himself a leftist, and
blamed the Zionist leader, David Ben-Gurion, the first prime
minister of the Zionist entity, for not fully exterminating and
uprooting Palestinian Arabs once and for all, replied to Ari
Shavit’s question: According to your findings, how many acts
of Israeli massacre were perpetrated in 1948?
Morris replied: "Twenty-four. In some cases four or five people
were executed, in others the numbers were 70, 80, 100. There was
also a great deal of arbitrary killing. Two old men are spotted
walking in a field - they are shot. A woman is found in an abandoned
village - she is shot. There are cases such as the village of
Dawayima [in the Hebron region], in which a column entered the
village with all guns blazing and killed anything that moved.
"The worst cases were Saliha (70-80 killed), Deir Yassin (100-110),
Lod (250), Dawayima (hundreds) and perhaps Abu Shusha (70). There is
no unequivocal proof of a large-scale massacre at Tantura, but war
crimes were perpetrated there. At Jaffa there was a massacre about
which nothing had been known until now. The same at Arab al Muwassi,
in the north. About half of the acts of massacre were part of
Operation Hiram [in the north, in October 1948]: at Safsaf, Saliha,
Jish, Eilaboun, Arab al Muwasi, Deir al Asad, Majdal Krum, Sasa. In
Operation Hiram there was an unusually high concentration of
executions of people against a wall or next to a well in an orderly
fashion." (Still the so-called historian calls Palestinians
"serial killers"!!!)
"That can't be chance. It's a pattern. Apparently, various
officers who took part in the operation understood that the
expulsion order they received permitted them to do these deeds in
order to encourage the population to take to the roads (and
Zionist propaganda claims that Palestinian Arabs deserted their
homes and land by order of their leaders and those of Arab rulers).
The fact is that no one was punished for these acts of murder.
Ben-Gurion silenced the matter. He covered up for the officers who
did the massacres."
It ought to be noted that the claimed number of massacres,
twenty-four, committed during the so-called "War of Independence" as
per Morris, were preceded and followed by hundreds of other
massacres, and the list is too long to give in this article. Even
during 1948 at least one or more massacres had been committed in
every Palestinian village, town and city that was overcome by the
invaders and demolished. As mentioned elsewhere in this article, Dr.
Walid Al-Khalidi listed in his book "All That Remains"
418 villages were leveled to the ground; so a massacre in each of
them should be inevitable.
At Wounded Knee also great massacres were committed by the invaders,
Giago related the following story: "She put her hands over their
mouths to keep them quiet, but a mounted soldier spotted them. He
fired a bullet into the head of one girl, then calmly reloaded his
rifle and fired into the head of the other girl. He then fired into
the body of the Lakota woman."
Rape
Rape crimes were committed by European Zionists and the European
invaders of the Americas. Giago related the following incident,
which although not a full act of rape, it is not far from being so:
"she feigned death and, although badly wounded, lived long
enough to relate her terrible ordeal to Dr. Eastman. She said that
as she lay there pretending to be dead, the soldier leaned down from
his horse, used his rifle to lift up her dress in order to see her
private parts, then snickered and rode off."
On the other end, and as far as we know the rape crimes during the
so-called "War of Independence" were by far worse, as they had
committed actual rape crimes and murdered their victims. Ari Shavit
of Haaretz asked Morris: According to your new findings, how
many cases of Israeli rape were there in 1948?
"About a dozen. In Acre four soldiers raped a girl and murdered
her and her father. In Jaffa, soldiers of the Kiryati Brigade raped
one girl and tried to rape several more. At Hunin, which is in the
Galilee, two girls were raped and then murdered. There were one or
two cases of rape at Tantura, south of Haifa. There was one case of
rape at Qula, in the center of the country. At the village of Abu
Shusha, near Kibbutz Gezer [in the Ramle area] there were four
female prisoners, one of whom was raped a number of times. And there
were other cases. Usually more than one soldier was involved.
Usually there were one or two Palestinian girls. In a large
proportion of the cases the event ended with murder. Because neither
the victims nor the rapists liked to report these events, we have to
assume that the dozen cases of rape that were reported, which I
found, are not the whole story. They are just the tip of the
iceberg." Massacres, rape and transfer crimes are all justified
for establishing the only democracy in the Middle East, as he claims
were justifiable to create the "great American democracy"! The two
"democracies", which committed an endless chain of wars throughout
their histories, both were established by the force of arms and
terror?
Both invaders of the Americas and Zionists looked down at the
indigenous populations as fit only to serve them and do their dirty
jobs. The American missionaries were no better than their armed
soldiers. The first who were supposed to help the "Red Indians", and
introduce them to Christianity, the religion of love and tolerance,
were completely something else. Tim Giango wrote: "As the
shooting subsided, units of the 7th Cavalry rode off toward White
Clay Creek near Pine Ridge Village on a search-and-destroy mission.
When they rode onto the grounds of Holy Rosary Indian Mission, my
grandmother Sophie, a student at the mission school, and the other
Lakota children, were forced by the Jesuit priests to feed and water
their horses."
The uprooted Palestinian activist Ahmad Al-Yamani, who insisted on
staying in his land, and if necessary, to die on it, rather than
desert it and leave it to the Zionist enemy, wrote in his memoirs
"My experience with life": "As soon as the
senior officer left the office a new meal of beating, kicking and
cursing of our fathers, mothers, sisters…and the people was renewed,
and up till then no enemy soldier had asked us any questions… The
soldiers were practicing their malicious sovereignty… matters
continued till the evening when I was taken to a dark room where I
stayed till the morning without bed, cover, food and not even a drop
of water… torturing was continued in the morning, I was led to the
courtyard of the center, barefooted and without a shirt, and was
ordered to sweep the floor while being beaten, knocked, cursed and
still without food nor water. This was a daily procedure along with…
sweeping, cleaning especially toilets!!!"
"I, with my fellow detainees, were led to the police
headquarters, which became an intelligence center. We were whipped
while on our way to the detention compound, which was a camp of open
sided tents, surrounded with barbed wires and guarded by venomous
soldiers, where we found a number of detained Palestinian Arabs.
Each of us was given a couple of blankets that was of course not
enough in this stormy weather, and we were fed with the same utility
meals that never changed… a crumb of bread and boiled potatoes three
times a day, with of course the usual daily desert of beating,
kicking and cursing…"
THE BARBARIANS SHOULD BE
EXTERMINATED:
Ralph Schoenman wrote in his book "The Hidden History of
Zionism"
http://www.takingaim.info/
"What distinguishes
Zionism from other colonial movements is the relationship between
the settlers and the people to be conquered. The avowed purpose of
the Zionist movement was not merely to exploit the Palestinian
people but to disperse and dispossess them. The intent was to
replace the indigenous population with a new settler community, to
eradicate the farmers, artisans and town-dwellers of Palestine and
substitute an entirely new workforce composed of the settler
population."
"In denying the existence of the Palestinian people, Zionism sought
to create the political climate for their removal, not only from
their land but from history." It seems that Benny Morris copied his
description of Arabs including Palestinians as "barbarians" from his
Zionist predecessors: "When acknowledged at all, the Palestinians
were re-invented as a semi-savage, nomadic remnant. Historical
records were falsified – a procedure begun during the last quarter
of the 19th century but continuing to this day in such
pseudo-historical writings as Joan Peters' From Time Immemorial."
Ralph Schoenman proceeded in exposing the criminal racist
colonialist Zionist plans for Palestinian Arabs by saying: "The
Zionist movement would seek alternative imperial sponsors for this
bloody enterprise; among them the Ottoman Empire, Imperial Germany,
the British Raj, French colonialism and Czarist Russia. Zionist
plans for the Palestinian people anticipated the Ottoman solution
for the Armenians, who would be slaughtered in the first sustained
genocide of the 20th century."
And continued saying: "From its inception, the Zionist movement
sought the "Armenianization" of the Palestinian people. Like the
Native Americans, the Palestinians were regarded as "a people too
many". The logic was elimination; the record was to be one of
genocide."
Both invaders of the Americas and Palestine called for the
extermination of the indigenous populations of the lands they sailed
to colonize, which were preferably, as we read in the above quotes,
cleansed in one way or another of what they called their "Barbarian"
inhabitants. The barbarians are the Palestinian Arabs and the
original Americans and the rest of what they call now the "third
world". Unlike the colonizers in other parts of the "third world"
such as in Africa and Asia, where they wanted to economically
exploit the land and the people and not to displace and replace
them: "The Pioneer has before declared that our only safety depends
upon the total extermination of the Indians. Having wronged them for
centuries, we had better, in order to protect our civilizations,
follow it up by one more wrong and wipe these untamed and untamable
creatures from the face of the earth." (Civilization!!!)
It is surprising to see the similarity between the invasion of Iraq,
as the American president George W. Bush called it, the liberation
and democratization, of that land, one of the earliest civilizations
in the history of mankind, and the colonization of the Americas.
What was the result? More then two and a quarter million Iraqis died
between the reigns of Bush senior and Bush junior, that is between
1990 and 2007, the country was divided into splinters of sectarian
and ethnic entities, it is swimming in a swamp of blood, chaos,
destruction of the infrastructure: water and electricity supplies,
communications, health and educational systems, the oil industry…
and the learned and professional elites are being targeted and
murdered, thus they are fleeing with their lives from the country
that was one of the most advanced in all these fields in the area.
Shavit asked Morris: Yet we, too, bear responsibility for
the violence and the hatred: the occupation, the roadblocks, the
closures, maybe even the Nakbah itself. That is in occupied
Palestine, to which he replied: "You don’t have to tell
me that. I have researched Palestinian history. I understand the
reasons for the hatred very well. The Palestinians are retaliating
now not only for yesterday’s closure but for the Nakbah as well. But
that is not a sufficient explanation. The peoples of Africa were
oppressed by the European powers no less than the Palestinians were
oppressed by us, but nevertheless I don’t see African terrorism in
London, Paris or Brussels. The Germans killed far more of us than we
killed the Palestinians, but we aren’t blowing up buses in Munich
and Nuremberg. So there is something else here, something deeper,
that has to do with Islam and Arab culture." Of course
Palestinians would not possibly forget their Nakbah, the continuous
holocaust that started a century and quarter ago, their ethnic
cleansing that Zionism is working hard to sooner or later complete.
But we believe that it is not possible for the racist colonialism
and racism to understand what they are committing - is the contrary
to civilization… Colonialists and especially Zionists cannot
understand that no civilization or goodwill ever justify massacres,
rape, ethnic cleansing, racism… ancient old and modern Arabs are not
barbarians; they have a history and civilization… Palestinian Arabs
had built their own land, and in their diaspora in whatever land
they are presently living, they contributed a lot in advancing these
lands from the first to the third world… Barbarians are those who
justify their war crimes whether in Palestine or in the Americas.
Morris continues to mention that Arabs are full of hatred for the
Zionist entity and Zionism, which in my opinion is fully justified,
but why doesn’t he and his co-Zionist conduct a simple study of the
explosive hatred that boils in the hearts of the "Israelis" towards
the people they uprooted from their land and homes and persecuted? A
poll of students that was published in January 2007 suggests that
racism is even stronger among young Jews. Three-quarters believed
Palestinian citizens are uneducated, uncivilized and unclean, and a
third are frightened of them. Richard Kupermintz of Haifa Univ., who
conducted the survey more than two years ago, believes the responses
would be even more extreme today.
As for the why Africans are not still retaliating against their
former colonizers, the answer is clear. Africans were not ethnically
cleansed from their lands, colonialism ended and their colonizers
apologized to their African victims for the crimes they committed
against them… That is why, but the Palestinian holocaust is still in
progress.
The number of the victims of the colonizers does not matter, it is
the crime that matters. Morris doesn’t realize who the victim is and
who the murderer is, he said: "In comparison to the massacres
the Russians perpetrated against the Germans at Stalingrad, that’s
chicken feed." What a joke?! Who was the invader and who was
the invaded? Jews were the victims of Nazi Germany; so the post-war
Germans had to be sucked by Zionism and are still being sucked by
hundreds of billions of dollars in "compensation", but when it comes
to invaded Russia where the invading Nazis murdered more than ten
million Russians, and destroyed everything in the invaded land, here
comes the Zionist Morris to tell us: "In comparison to the massacres
the Russians perpetrated against the Germans at Stalingrad, that’s
chicken feed." Is Stalingrad an German city invaded by the Russians
or a Russian one invaded by the Germans? Russians fought the most
heroic battle to liberate it… What percentage of the Russian
population was lost as a result of this invasion? Certainly more
than the 1% the colonizing Zionists Morris claimed that they have
lost during their colonization of Palestine!
Shavit replied to Morris: I want to insist on my point: A
large part of the responsibility for the hatred of the Palestinians
rests with us. After all, you yourself showed us that the
Palestinians experienced a historical catastrophe.
Morris replied: "True. But when one has to deal with a serial
killer, it’s not so important to discover why he became a serial
killer. What’s important is to imprison the murderer or to execute
him." Serial killer!!! Morris the "historian" justified all the
war crimes of European colonialism and called the defenders of their
land "serial killers". As for only 800 Palestinians being killed in
1948, is a big lie, but anyhow whether one or a million, it is a
crime to murder a soul especially if they are defending their land
and people. During the 1982 invasion of Lebanon more than 22,000
Lebanese, Palestinians and Syrians Arabs were massacred in Lebanon
by the invading Zionist army. In the June/July Zionist invasion of
Lebanon about 1,200 Lebanese were murdered in addition to the vast
destruction the Zionist air raids and other war tools inflicted all
over Lebanon.
If Jewish blood is sacred for
us Arab blood is more sacred…
Shavit proceeded with his questions: Explain the image: Who
is the serial killer in the analogy?
Without shame Morris replied: "The barbarians who want to take
our lives. The people the Palestinian society sends to carry out the
terrorist attacks, and in some way the Palestinian society itself as
well. At the moment, that society is in the state of being a serial
killer. It is a very sick society. It should be treated the way we
treat individuals who are serial killers." Why do those Arabs
want to take the lives of the barbarian Zionists? Zionists wage an
endless series of wars to uproot a people from their land and homes
and replace them in it, with the excuse that they want a new land to
be colonized by white Europeans. The serial killers are the
Zionists. The Zionist rogue state of "Israel" is the one that
contains the very sick society that rejected all Arab peace
initiatives, because they want to proceed with their expansionist
wars, and ethnically cleanse every Arab soul from Palestine and its
surroundings. Arabs should be in a very sick society if they don’t
defend themselves against the invaders. Morris and other Zionists
call Palestinians "suicide bombers". What about this rogue state,
which imports young men and women, puts them in military fatigues,
trains them and arms them to kill and be killed, aren’t they "serial
killers" and suicide bombers?! During the Zionist invasions of the
Egyptian Sinai peninsula soldiers were ordered "don’t take
prisoners" wounded or not, just kill anything that breathes!!!
Cage them
One of the most striking similarities between the colonizers of the
Americas and Palestine is their plan to cage the indigenous
populations of the colonized lands, with the aim of exterminating
them or at least uprooting them from their land. Black Elk of Lakota
wrote: "My people looked pitiful. There was a big drought, and
the rivers and creeks seemed to be dying. Nothing would grow that
the people had planted, and the Wasichus had been sending less
cattle and other food than ever before. The Wasichus had slaughtered
all the bison and shut us up in pens. It looked as if we might all
starve to death. We could not eat lies, and there was nothing we
could do.." L. Frank Baum - Editor and Publisher, "The Aberdeen
Saturday Pioneer" December 1890
Up till today "Red Indians" are caged in reserves, which are not far
from being Zoos, true they are not actual zoos, and "Red Indians"
have the privilege of running gambling casinos, and have some tax
free commodities, but still they are caged, they are as Black Elk
said, they "shut us up in pens", and they are there so that tourists
will come to see the few remaining living specimens of the
indigenous "Red Indians".
On the other side the barbarian "historian", Benny Morris responded
to Shavit’s question: What does that mean? What should we do
tomorrow morning? "We have to try to heal the
Palestinians. Maybe over the years the establishment of a
Palestinian state will help in the healing process. But in the
meantime, until the medicine is found, they have to be contained so
that they will not succeed in murdering us." (!) Heal the
Palestinians, does this mean subjugate them to be healed!?
Palestinians were living in peace, prosperity and tranquility till
they were invaded and their slaughter was started first with the
help of British colonialism to be followed by American/Zionist
colonialism. These parties are experienced in running
slaughterhouses in the Americas; so they didn’t need any further
training to run it in Palestine.
And in reply to a further question: To fence them in? To
place them under closure? Morris responded: "Something
like a cage has to be built for them. I know that sounds terrible.
It is really cruel. But there is no choice. There is a wild animal
there that has to be locked up in one way or another."
Benny Morris, like his co-racist Zionists, were inspired by their
tutor Jabotinsky who was described by Ralph Schoenman for the idea
of whatever you call it Iron fence, iron cage, concrete wall, barbed
wire and/or electrified fence, or as we may read below: "the iron
law", "Iron Hand" are nothing but to fence the Palestinians in, "the
siren of 'an iron wall, "Iron Brain" through which the local
population can not break through" and of "the iron law of every
colonizing movement ... armed force', found his call echoed in major
Zionist forays against victim peoples in the decades to come."
Schoenman proceeded: "Israel's current Minister of Defense (1988),
Yitzhak Rabin, launched the 1967 war as Chief of Staff with "Iron
Will". As Prime Minister in 1975 and 1976 he declared the policy of
Hayad Barzel, the "Iron Hand", in the West Bank. Over 300,000
Palestinians were to pass through Israeli prisons under conditions
of sustained and institutionalized torture exposed by the Sunday
Times of London and denounced by Amnesty International". Just as a
reminder, more then half of the Palestinians presently living in the
West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem spent some time in
"Israeli" prisons and detention camps.
"His successor as Chief of Staff, Raphael Eitan, imposed the "Iron
Arm" – Zro'aa Barzel – on the West Bank, and assassination was added
to the repressive arsenal. On July 17, 1982, the Israeli cabinet met
to prepare what the London Sunday Times would term "this carefully
pre-planned military operation to purge the camps, called Moah
Barzel or 'Iron Brain'". The camps were Sabra and Shatila and the
operation "was familiar to Sharon and Begin, part of Sharon's larger
plan discussed by the Israeli cabinet".
[*]
London Sunday Times, September 26, 1982."
Targeted assassinations of Palestinian resistance and other Arab
activists reached its peak during the Sharon era to be followed by
the Zionist troika Olmert/Peretz and their scapegoat resigned/fired
chief of staff, Halutz. Palestinian resistance men are being
assassinated, mostly targeted by air strikes. A big number of
civilian bystanders fell victims of these racist war crimes.
Schoenman continued: "When Yitzhak Rabin, who had supported the
Revisionist Likud in Lebanon during the war, became Shimon Peres'
Minister of Defense in the current "national unity" government, he
launched in Lebanon and the West Bank the policy of Egrouf Barzel,
the "Iron Fist". It is the "Iron Fist" which Rabin again cited as
the basis for his policy of allout repression and collective
punishment during the 1987-1988 Palestinian uprising in the West
Bank and Gaza."
The cage suggested by Morris and his fellow Zionists is about to be
completed by the racist Zionist rogue state of "Israel". Isn’t it
that eight meters high and 650 kilometers long concrete wall with
barbed and electrified fences Morris is talking about? Zionists hope
that their project of ethnic cleansing shall be enforced when they
imprison about four million Palestinian Arabs in walled enclaves,
open air prisons, or cages, practically without any means of
livelihood, all the agricultural land is confiscated, and all water
resources are stolen, no free exit or return to and from the outside
world… Definitely Palestinian Arabs who are adamant to stick their
feet deep in their land will not quit it under any circumstances.
Barbaric Zionism is creating national resistance that Morris likes
to call "serial killers", and as Morris predicted in reply to
Shavit’s question: The situation as you describe it is extremely
harsh. You are not entirely convinced that we can survive here, are
you?
"The possibility of annihilation exists." Morris is right
to be pessimistic about the future of an artificial state and its
people, which can only survive as long as it continues to commit war
crimes and targeted assassination against the tough resistance of
the willful indigenous population.
Shavit continued asking: Would you describe yourself as an
apocalyptic person?
"The whole Zionist project is apocalyptic. It exists within
hostile surroundings and in a certain sense its existence is
unreasonable." Zionists willingly and by the use of terror put
themselves in hostile surroundings, and they should be fools to
think that they will be welcomed with love and kisses by Arabs, they
created a hateful environment, and implanted themselves in its
midst…
Shavit asked Morris, So what you are telling me is that you
live the Palestinian Nakbah of the past less than you live the
possible Jewish Nakbah of the future?
"Yes. Destruction could be the end of this process. It could be
the end of the Zionist experiment. And that’s what really depresses
and scares me." Morris is reasonable enough to realize the fate
of a racist entity established, we repeat, by the force of arms and
state terror, which is as he put it, destruction and annihilation,
unless they give up their racist Zionism.
If Palestinian Arabs surrender and raise the white flag their fate
will be like that of "the Red Indians", total extermination or close
to it: "A detachment of soldiers was sent into the camp to
search for any arms remaining there, and it was reported that their
rudeness frightened the women and children. It was also reported
that a remark was made by one of the soldiers that "when we get the
arms away from them we can do as we please with them," indicating
that they were to be destroyed. Some of the Indians could understand
English. This and other things alarmed the Indians and [a] scuffle
occurred between one warrior who had [a] rifle in his hand and two
soldiers. The rifle was discharged and a massacre occurred, not only
the warriors but the sick Chief Big Foot, and a large number of
women and children who tried to escape by running and scattering
over the prairie were hunted down and killed." Thomas H.
Tibbles Omaha World Herald
CONCLUSION:
One difference between the two acts of colonization in Palestine and
the Americas, namely, nobody volunteered to coin a term for those
who defend the "Red Indians". As Zionists, and unfortunately, many
Americans and Europeans do when somebody defends the Palestinian
cause, and condemns Zionist crimes, those people are called
"anti-Semites", and if they happen to be of the Jewish faith, they
are called "self hating Jews".
