Hoy es el Día Internacional de Solidaridad con el Pueblo Palestino 🇵🇸.

Otro año más, cabe explicar muy brevemente (no podré mencionar numerosos aspectos) cómo empezó todo en #Palestina-#Israel y cuáles son sus claves históricas.

🧵⬇️
La cuestión de Palestina:

-No se retrotrae 2.000 años atrás

-No es de índole religiosa (aunque el territorio se conoce como "Tierra Santa" y varios actores utilizan la religión como elemento legitimador)

-No hay un supuesto odio congénito entre personas judías y musulmanas
La cuestión de Palestina es contemporánea y colonial

Empezó en el s. XIX cuando 1 minoría de judíos europeos creó el movimiento #sionista

Su objetivo: crear 1 Estado exclusiva o mayoritariamente judío en el mayor territorio de Palestina

El sionismo no representaba al judaísmo

#SheikhJarrah - again the hotspot for disturbances and tensions caused by the heightened risk of forcible transfer and supplanting of its #Palestinian inhabitants with #Israeli settlers- has been at the epicenter of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since its inception.
#SheikhJarrah is also the place where international humanitarian law #IHL saw a major development in relation to the protection of medical personnel and transports and the role played by the @ICRC and national Red Cross and Crescent Societies @ifrc:
On April 9, 1948, when militants from the Zionist paramilitary groups Irgun and Lehi killed an estimated number of 250 Palestinians, including women and children, in #DeirYassin, a village of roughly 600 people near #Jerusalem.

1/ A year ago, @visualizingpal launched #PalestineToday, telling the story of 1,200 historical towns, villages and cities, and highlighting how the #Nakba and the foundation of #Israel in 1948 created the fractured #Palestinian geography that we see today today.visualizingpalestine.org
2/ Looking at the history of the region in this way helps us to put today's events in context. Eg. in "mixed cities" like #Jaffa, #Haifa or #Lydd, where many #Palestinians were forcibly displaced in 1948, and those that remained became an isolated minority today.visualizingpalestine.org/lydda/
3/ In the #GazaStrip, where nearly 70% of the population are refugees originating from towns and villages in what became #Israel, the population of towns and cities like #Gaza, #Rafah and #KhanYounis have increased massively today.visualizingpalestine.org/rafah/

I look at these photographs and imagine my ancestors roaming these streets, my grandparents raising my father as a child running around free like a bird before the massacre on April 9, 1948 (71 years ago today) that completely traumatized their lives forever. #DeirYassin
My grandfather Muhammad and grandmother Khadija died never to return back home so that Criminal Zionist Europeans can take over because they believed it was their divine right to massacre and forcefully depopulate my family. #DeirYassin #Palestine
Same with my father, he died never to fulfill his dream to RETURN HOME to the streets he played in as a child.

I remember my father taking me here to our ancestral village (Deir Yassin) during the First Intifada (late 1980’s). #DeirYassin #Palestine #DeirYassin71
