Como nos encanta la historia de #Israel, desde hoy hasta las celebraciones del Día de la Independencia contaremos un evento significativo por cada año de nuestra historia. 75 años, 75 historias.

El 14 de mayo de 1948, David Ben Gurion lee el acta de independencia del naciente Estado de #Israel bajo los principios de "libertad, justicia y paz".

Después de generaciones, por fin se cumple el sueño milenario del pueblo de Israel de volver a ser libre en su tierra ancestral. Image
En 1949, los restos del padre del sionismo moderno Theodor #Herzl se trasladan al joven Estado de #Israel para su descanso eterno.

@hirndummy @lange_tobias_hh Völliger Quatsch! Ich beginne mal so: Bedeutet der Bericht von Amnesty, dass Juden (und nur Juden) kein Recht auf nationale Selbstbestimmung haben? Nein, es spricht den Juden dieses Recht nicht ab. Stattdessen besteht sie darauf, dass Juden nicht 1/
@hirndummy @lange_tobias_hh das Recht haben, Palästinenser, die unter israelischer Herrschaft leben, systematisch zu diskriminieren. Die Bewertung von Amnesty basiert auf einer fünfjährigen Analyse (!) des israelischen Zivil- und Militärrechts. Sie kam zu demselben Schluss wie @HRW und 2/

TODAY: Palestinian Bedouins try to stop Israeli bulldozers being used in a tree-planting program carried out by the Jewish National Fund (JNF) on the land of the #Naqab desert, also known as #Negev.
Since its creation in 1901, the JNF has been acquiring lands serving the settler-colonial project in the region of Palestine. Photos by Activestills.
To this day, Israel bans Palestinian refugees of the Naqab, most of whom are currently in Gaza's refugee camps, from returning to their ethnically cleansed towns in favor of Israeli settlers. Photos by @OrenZiv_ / Activestills

A few weeks ago, a Bedouin man invaded into agricultural land that belongs to Moshav Nevatim & put up an illegal hut. Hut is small, but its impact has been huge: the Moshav workers aren't allowed to enter their fields to work & have received threats. 🚨

Nevatim, near Be'er Sheva, is surrounded by clusters of illegal Bedouin squatters’ camps, & has suffered for many years from crime, vandalism, burglary & agricultural theft. Recently we told you about the desecration of graves in the cemetery - bit.ly/3azpI8X

The frustrated farmers asked Regavim for help. So we went to National Enforcement Unit, Israel Police, & Israel Land Authority to demand that they stop this illegal land seizure. The invader must be held accountable!

A covert police operation recently exposed a case of extortion payments in the #Negev. Over last few years, families & contractors, who were supposed to move to a location near Route 6, were victims of extortion threats amounting to hundreds of thousands of shekels.

For around 6 months, 3 policemen from Yoav Unit (part of Police's Southern Command) disguised themselves as contractors to collect enough evidence.

Police arrested 6 suspects, all members of the same family.

The family illegally seized State lands in the Negev, threatened anyone who approached the area, & demanded various payments. This week, the Southern District Attorney's Office indicted the suspects & requested detention until the conclusion of proceedings.

From the beginning, Zionists advocated a "Jewish State" not just in #Palestine, but also in #Jordan, southern #Lebanon, and the #GolanHeights as well.
As it will be proved from the quotes below:

#Palestinians are not indigenous to #Palestine👈This propaganda has no other purpose than 2 further dehumanize Palestinians & justify #Israel’s ongoing ethnic cleansing & murder
In #BenGurion own words👇😡you'll see how that outrageous claim is far removed from historical reality
“We must expel the Arabs and take their places…”~#DavidBenGurion
Born in 1886 as David Green (Gruen) in Plonsk, #Poland. He is considered one of the three founding figures of Zionism beside #ChaimWeizmann & #Herzl.
