Genocidally racist Zionists from Zionism’s psychopathic founder Theodor Herzl to present war criminal Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu have explicitly stated that they want all the land of Palestine but not its Indigenous Palestinian inhabitants. Below is a convenient Summary for peace and human rights activists of the century-long Palestinian Genocide from British-ruled Palestine to neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel’s present US Alliance-backed and genocidal Gaza Massacre.
By a macabre coincidence 2023 marks the 100th anniversary of the League of Nations grant of a Palestine Mandate to Britain in 1923, and the 75th anniversary of the 1948 Nakba (or Catastrophe) in which 800,000 Palestinians (60% of the Indigenous Palestinian inhabitants) were forcibly expelled from the land continuously inhabited by their forebears for over 3 millennia [1-4]. Now in 2023 the 2.3 million utterly impoverished, besieged and bombed inmates of the Gaza Concentration Camp and mostly descending from refugees in the 1948 Nakba are facing and indeed undergoing a genocidal second mass population expulsion by neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel. Unfortunately the World did not listen to Gandhi when he stated (1938): “Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be justified by any moral code of conduct. The mandates have no sanction but that of the last war. Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as their national home. The nobler course would be to insist on a just treatment of the Jews wherever they are born and bred” [5].
(1). Palestinian Genocide start: 1880, Palestinian population 500,000 Arabs (90% Muslim, 10% Christians) and 25,000 Jews (half immigrants); 1914, Britain invaded the 400-year Ottoman Turkish Caliphate in 1914 for oil and hegemony; 1916, Sykes-Picot Anglo-French Agreement to carve up the Middle East for themselves; mid-WW1, Palestinian Famine (100,000 dead); 31 October 1917, Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) defeated Turks at Beersheba, Palestine; 2 November 1917, British Balfour Declaration to Zionist Lord Rothschild granting Palestine as a Jewish Homeland (actually devised to get Zionist Russian Communists to keep Russia in the war); 1917, Britain conquered Palestine, ending 400 years of peaceful Turkish rule; 10 December 1918, ANZAC Surafend Massacre of 100 Palestinian men and boys (100 killed); 1923, League of Nations grant of Palestine Mandate to Britain that encouraged European Jewish settler-colonialist immigration.
(2). Palestinian Genocide under British rule (1917-1948). 1920s, 1930s, Arab tenant farmers and labourers displaced, Arab resistance to Zionist immigration and the resultant Arab Revolt; the British and British-trained and British-armed Zionist terrorists killed 10% of the adult male Palestinian population; 1939 White Paper stopped Jewish immigration to placate British Empire Arabs and Muslims during WW2; 1944, British War Cabinet secretly decided to Partition Palestine (causing the John Curtin Labor Government to veto a plan for Jewish settlement of NW Australia; 1945, Jewish immigration resumed, Zionist terrorists targeted Palestinians and British; 1947, UN Partition Plan, population 1,970,000 comprising 630,000 Jews (32.0%), 143,000 Christians (7.3%) and 1,181,000 Muslims (59.9%) i.e. two thirds were Indigenous Palestinians.
(3). 1948 Nakba (Catastrophe) and mass Indigenous population expulsion: 1948, British withdrew and Zionists declared State of Israel, seizing 78% of Mandated Palestine; 1947-1948, 800,000 Palestinians (60% of the Indigenous Palestinian population) were violently expelled by British-trained and British-armed Zionist terrorists (76 massacres, 15,000 Palestinians killed, 530 villages ethnically cleansed, 120 mosques eventually destroyed); the racist US-dominated World, including genocidally racist White Australia from Australian Dr H.V. Evatt (UN President, 1948-1949) onwards, recognized the State of Israel but not a State of Palestine; UK- and US-involved mass immigration of Yemeni, Iraqi and Moroccan Jews from convert communities that had co-existed peacefully with the Muslim World for 1400 years; 1956, Israel showed its raisond’être by joining the UK and France invasion of Egypt that was stopped by a not yet Zionist-dominated America; 1960, impoverished Palestinians inside Israel “granted” citizenship albeit under Nazi-style, race-based discriminatory laws.
(4). 1967 Naksa (Setback), Zionist seizure of all of Palestine plus territory of all its neighbours with further mass Indigenous population expulsions. By mid-1967 Israel had developed nuclear weapons with French, UK, US and Apartheid South African help; 1967, Israel attacked all its neighbours, seized all of Palestine plus territory of all its neighbours, Egypt, Palestine, Jordan and Syria; 400,000 Arabs expelled from the West Bank and Syria’s Golan Heights.
(5). US-backed Palestinian Genocide, Arab Genocide and population expulsions in 1967-2005. 1967, increasing Zionist-domination of the US dates from Israeli acquisition of nuclear weapons by mid-1967; 1973, Egypt attempted to regain its Sinai territory (part of Egypt for over 5,000 years but seized by 19 years old neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel in 1967 ); 1974, Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) leader Yasser Arafat addressed the UN General Assembly; 1979, return of Sinai to Egypt and enforced peace with Egypt; 1982-2000, Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon; 1982, Sabra and Shatila refugee camp massacre of 3,000 Palestinians by Christian Falangist militia in Israeli-occupied Beirut, and 7,000 Palestinians forced to leave; large emigration of Lebanese during the Lebanon civil war (1970s-1990s); 1987, First Palestinian Intifada (Uprising); 1988, PLO recognized Israel; 1993, Oslo Agreement for Palestinian self-government under Israeli Occupation; 1967 onwards, highly abusive subjugation of Occupied Palestinians under violent Israeli military rule, with continued expulsion from land, and large-scale home demolitions; 2,000-2005, Second Intifada (Al-Aqsa Intifada); 2004, Yasser Arafat died (likely murdered by the Israelis using polonium poisoning ).
(6). US-backed Palestinian Genocide, 2005 from -September 2023. 2006, Hamas won the Occupied Palestinian elections but was declared a terrorist organization by the serial war criminal US Alliance and Israel and fled to rule the Gaza Concentration Camp from 2007, leaving Fatah to rule the Occupied Palestinian West Bank; Apartheid Israel imposed a savage blockade on the Gaza Concentration Camp from 2005, allowing for bare survival and some day labourers allowed to work in Israel. Exercising the legal right of self-defence of subjugated people as acknowledged by the Preamble to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the UN Charter, over 20 years Gazans fired about 30,000 ineffective rockets into Israel that were mostly stopped by the US-supplied Iron Dome defence system and killed about 50 people. However the Israelis responded with sniper fire and unstoppable high explosive missiles from air, land and sea that killed about 6,407 Gaza Palestinians in some 5 major deadly episodes in 2006, 2008-2009, 2014, 2018-2019, and 2021 [6]. Thus in the Gaza Great March of Return following the Israeli annexation of East Jerusalem in 2017 about 180 Gaza Palestinians were killed and 9,200 wounded by Israeli snipers.
(7). Palestinian subjugation and Palestinian Genocide prior to October 2023. Prior to the present ghastly and ongoing Gaza Massacre by neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel, the century-long Palestinian Genocide was associated with 0.1 million deaths from violence and 2 million deaths from imposed deprivation [1-4]. Of about 15 million mostly impoverished Indigenous Palestinians, there are 7 million Exiled Palestinians (deriving from prior mass population expulsions and illegally prevented by the Zionazis from returning to the land continuously inhabited by their forebears for over 3 millennia); presently 5.7 million Occupied Palestinians (unable to vote for the government ruling them, and denied all human rights specified in the 30 Articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights [7] and highly abusively confined under brutal Israeli military rule to ever-diminishing West Bank ghettoes (3.4 million) or to the blockaded and bombed Gaza Concentration Camp (2.3 million)); and 2 million Israeli Palestinians (able to vote for the government ruling them, albeit as Third Class citizens under 60 Nazi-style, race-based discriminatory laws).
Some shocking indicators: (a) poverty kills and the GDP per capita is $1,000 (Gaza), $3,500 (Occupied Palestinian Territory), and $55,500 (Apartheid Israel); (b) according to the Israeli Committee Against Home Demolitions (ICAHD) more than 131,000 Palestinian homes have been demolished in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) since 1947 with huge numbers threatened by “lack of permits” and “collective punishment by home demolition”; (c). before WW2 Palestine exported nearly 40 million oranges annually and was also famed for olive oil, but since 1948 about 3 million citrus and olive trees have been destroyed by the Zionazis; (d) the life expectancy gap between Apartheid Israel and the OPT is 10 years; (e) on average in the 21st century Israelis have violently killed about 500 Occupied Palestinians per year with a further 4,000 killed annually by imposed deprivation [3], and in the 21st century prior to October 2023 this carnage totalled about 11,500 violent Palestinian deaths and about 90,000 deaths from imposed deprivation (contrast the average domestic Israeli homicide rate for Israelis killing fellow Israelis that has been about 20 per million per year i.e. about 190 per year and 4,300 in the 21st century).
(8). The genocidal killing continues with an ongoing Third Nakba from northern Gaza and a Fourth Nakba and even a Final Nakba looming.
(a). Apartheid Israel has promised to “annihilate” Hamas (16,000 fighters) and Islamic Jihad (1,000 fighters) and this promises an Occupied/Occupier reprisals Death Ratio of (17,000 /1,400 = 12.1, already greater than that of 10 ordered by Nazi mass murder Adolph Hitler in 1944 and immediately carried out in the Ardeatine Cave Massacre [8-10].
(b). As of 8 November 2023, just over 4 weeks after the commencement of the Israeli Palestinian Genocide in Gaza on 7 October, confirmed Palestinian casualties in Gaza total 10, 468 deaths with 27,000 wounded. A further 1,500 Palestinians were killed in Israel as compared to the 1,400 Israelis killed in the 7 October Gaza Breakout The Occupied Palestinian /Occupier Israel reprisals Death Ratio is presently (10,468 + 1,500)/1,400 = 11,968/1400 = 8.5 as compared to the Hitler-ordered Occupied/Occupier Reprisals Death Ratio of 10.
(c). Respected journalist Jonathan Cook: “Given Hamas’ situation, effectively managing the Israeli-controlled concentration camp of Gaza, it has limited resistance strategies available to it. Capturing Israeli soldiers maximises its leverage. They can be traded for the release of many of the thousands of Palestinian political prisoners held in jails inside Israel, in breach of international law. In addition, in the negotiations, Hamas usually hopes to win an easing of Israel’s 16-year siege of Gaza. To avert this scenario, Israeli commanders reportedly called in the attack helicopters on the military bases overwhelmed by Hamas on October 7. The helicopters appear to have fired indiscriminately, despite the risk posed to the Israeli soldiers in the base who were still alive. Israel’s was a scorched-earth policy to stop Hamas achieving its aims. That may, in part, explain the very large proportion of Israeli soldiers among the 1,300 killed that day” [11]. Indeed it appears that no Israeli troops were killed in the killing of 1,500 Palestinian fighters in Israel after the Breakout from Gaza. If we assume that three quarters of the 1,400 Israelis killed on 7 October were killed in the Israeli response as described by Jonathan Cook then the present Death Ratio would be 11,968/1,050 = 11.4.
(d). The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has provided year-by-year statistics for the Occupied Palestinian/Occupier Israeli reprisals Death Ratios from 2008, the worst years being2008/2009: 1,965/44 = 44.7, : 2,329/68 = 34.3, 2018: 300/13 = 23.1, and 2021: 349/11 = 31.7 [6]. The average Occupied Palestinian/Occupier Israeli reprisals Death Ratio for 1 January 2008 – 19 September 2023 was 6,407/308 = 20.8, which predicts 20.8 x 1,400 = 29,000 Palestinian deaths in the present atrocity.
(e). Humans can survive only 3 days without water and 4 weeks ago neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel immediately cut water, food, fuel, and electricity (needed for hospitals and water desalination) to impoverished Gaza. Half the population are already homeless. Only a trickle of aid has been allowed in from Egypt for only a few days so far, and the World is watching an ongoing Palestinian Genocide in Gaza that will worsen with Israel’s horrendous land invasion. If half the population of Gaza perishes the Death Ratio will be 1,150,000/ 1,400 = 821 i.e. neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel would be valuing Palestinian lives as 821 times less than Israeli lives, and would be applying a reprisals Death Ratio 82 times bigger than the 10 ordered by Nazi mass murderer Adolph Hitler.
(f). Zionist leaders from its proto-Nazi founder Theodor Herzl (unfortunately related to my esteemed Jewish Hungarian great-great grandmother) to the present genocidal psychopaths running neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel have been explicit in advocating removal of the Indigenous Palestinians from Palestine. Indeed in the present Gaza Massacre Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu recently invoked the demand by the Israelite “God” in the Old Testament for the total extermination of the Amalekites: “They [IDF soldiers] are committed to completely eliminating this evil from the world. You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember” (the Holy Bible: “I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys” [12]. Tom Pickering (a former US Ambassador to Apartheid Israel and the UN) (2021): “The Palestinians who clearly suffered a 20 to 1 death rate and who clearly are vastly overwhelmed by the Israelis in terms of military power… I think it is an extremely high mountain to cross… It doesn’t appear there is a 1 state solution to this problem and there is no multiple state outcome to this problem… Israel for a very long period of time under Netanyahu has kind of narrowed down the goal for the Palestinians to something like 20% of what is currently believed to have been the Palestinian state under the 2 state solution [i.e. to 4.4% of Palestine] … And if in fact there is no agreement and the status quo is continued with interruptions for violence as we have seen, it is quite possible that over years – and I am talking about a long time – you will see a removal of Palestinians from the West Bank and quite possibly Gaza to other parts of the world and a no-state solution if I can put it that way. Israel triumphant covering it all”. Indeed an Israeli report favouring an expulsion of all Gaza Palestinians to the Sinai (the 2014 Greater Gaza Plan) was exposed last week (for an alphabetical compendium of this and other horrendous genocidal Zionist quotes see [12]).
(g). Neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel has been explicit in word and in sustained genocidal deeds in wanting all the land of Palestine but not the Indigenous Palestinian inhabitants [12]. Impelled by genocidally racist Zionists, for 75 years neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel has grossly violated numerous International laws and conventions, notably the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination [13], the International Convention on the Suppression and Punishment of the Crime of Apartheid [14], the Fourth Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War” (an Occupier must try to keep its Occupied Subject alive “to the fullest extent of the means available to it”[15], and the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (“any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy in whole or in part, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: (a) Killing members of the group;(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group” [16].
(h). As of 10 November 4,200 Palestinian children have been killed by the Israelis in reprisals for the Gaza Breakout in which 35 Israeli children died. About 1,300 Palestinian children are buried under rubble and presumed dead. This gives a Palestinian/ Israeli Child Death Ratio of 5,500/35 = 157 (with an unknown number of Israeli children killed by Israelis in the Israeli armed response that killed 1,500 Palestinians fighters).
(9). The core ethos of Humanity is Kindness and Truth but both are comprehensively violated by neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel and its complicit Western Mainstream politician and media supporters. The worst of crimes is the killing of children as measured by “children killed per year per million of population” and one can calculate this by Apartheid Israel in the Gaza Concentration Camp over the last 34 days = (5,500 deaths / 34 days) x (365.25 days/ year) / 2.3 million Gazans = 25,689 “children killed per year per million of total territory population” . This horrifying number of 25,689 is 3,380 times greater than for the World (7.6) and 339 times greater than for crime-wracked Honduras (75.7). In order to be exquisitely “fair” to the child-killing Israelis one should estimate the average from 2008 onwards of “children killed per year per million of the total Occupied Palestinian Territory population”. Children killed in this period totalled 859 + 5,500 = 6,359, this giving “children killed per year per million of total Occupied Palestinian Territory population” = 6,359 Children killed / 16 years)/ (average population of 5.15 million) = 77.2, bigger than that Honduras (75.7), worst in the world and set to rise enormously in coming days, weeks. and months in the deadly absence of water, food, medicine, medical services, fuel and electricity [9, 17]. Indeed neo-Nazi Israeli forces have targeted 58 health care facilities in Gaza, with 132 medics dead, 25 ambulances destroyed, and 58 hospitals and 32 primary care centres forced out of service due to bombing and fuel shortage. 1 million Gazans are homeless [18]. The number of Gaza children killed to date totals 5,500 i.e. 157 times more than the 35 Israeli children killed on 7 October 2023.
As for Zionist perversion of truth one only has to turn to the all-European, US Alliance-backed and Zionist-promoted International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) that promulgates a definition of anti-Semitism that has been used to falsely defame anti-racist Jewish and non-Jewish critics of Apartheid Israeli crimes, and has been condemned by over 40 anti-racist Jewish organizations [19, 20]. In horrible reality the IHRA is anti-Jewish anti-Semitic and anti-Arab anti-Semitic (by falsely defaming anti-racist Jewish, Palestinian, Arab and Muslim critics of Apartheid Israel, and holocaust denying by ignoring all WW2 Holocausts other than the WW2 Jewish Holocaust and indeed ignoring about 70 genocide and holocaust atrocities [19, 21]. Zionism is genocidal racism in awful theory and appalling practice. Indeed Zionism is Nazism without gas chambers but with a huge high technology war machine, huge war and subjugation industries, and with 100 nuclear weapons plus delivery systems including Germany-supplied submarines. Indeed there is a shocking list of 52 Zionist- and Apartheid Israeli-Nazi Germany comparisons [22], and I have made a detailed and documented Submission to the Australian National Anti-Corruption Commission over the Australian Labor Government extensively lying for Apartheid Israel [23].
Final comments and conclusions.
The genocidal Gaza Massacre of innocents continues. 47% of the inmates of the Gaza Concentration Camp are children and over 72% are women and children. The World contains 2 kinds of people, those who condemn the killing of innocents, and the others.
Those complicit in the Gaza Massacre include not just the Israeli perpetrators but also the Western Mainstream politicians and media who overwhelmingly fervently support neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel. Thus 120 mainly non-European nations supported the UNGA Resolution for a Ceasefire in Gaza but this was opposed by 59 countries, mostly European US Alliance countries with a minority of poor and easily “bought” non-European countries [24]. The big BRICS countries of Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa voted Yes but Modi’s India disgraced India’s fine record of leading the World in the fight against Apartheid by opposing the Ceasefire Resolution (ideological reasons for this betrayal of Humanity by pro-Apartheid Israel and hence pro-Apartheid Modi India become apparent when one reads Arundhati Roy’s book “Azadi. Fascism, Fiction and Freedom in the Time of the Virus” [25].
What can decent people do to stop the war criminal carnage inflicted by neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel on the besieged, bombed and devastated Gaza Concentration Camp? Unfortunately my own country, Australia, like most Western countries is a craven US lackey. Australia, is second only to the US as a fervent supporter of Apartheid Israel and hence of the utterly evil crime of Apartheid. Australia has an excellent compulsory and preferential voting system and is presently ruled by a Rightist Labor Government with a much worse, Right to extreme Right Liberal Party-National Party Coalition Opposition, Until this latest Gaza Massacre progressive people like me would say “Vote 1 Green, put the Coalition last and put Labor second last”. However Labor is in government and, like the unspeakably awful Coalition, is a fervent supporter of genocidal and neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel, opposes a Gaza Ceasefire and via diplomacy, military deals and global electronic spying (from the US-Australian Pine Gap base in Central Australia) supports the ongoing Israeli Gaza Massacre. The Zionist-subverted Australian Labor Government should be massively defeated at the next election and replaced by a civilized Green Government or a Greens-led coalition opposed to Apartheid and the mass murder of women and children. Ditto other US Alliance and Western countries.
Decent people around the World must (a) inform everyone they can of these ongoing atrocities, and (b) urge and apply Boycotts, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against child-killing, neo-Nazi Apartheid Israel and all people, politicians, parties, collectives, corporations, and countries supporting this genocidally racist and child-killing Apartheid rogue state.
