1. The real catatrophe that occured when the Arabs failed to wipe out the Jewish state.
2. The mythical narrative that they remember on Nakba Day 2/13
They build their story on several pillars:
That the Palestinians welcomed the Jews
The Palestinians were innocent victims
The Jews planned to expel them
It was a one-sided slaughter
The demographic weakness of the Jews
The Arab armies had to save the Palestinians 3/13
And we can therefore prove that Nakba Day is based on nothing more than fiction - because each and every one is a lie. 4/13
The Jews were welcomed by the Arabs is an easy myth to dispel. The Arabs violently opposed the Jews arriving. There were riots and attacks and massacres - such as these examples from 1929 and 1938
Which means the founding pillar is a lie 5/13
Innocent? They rejected the partition and within hours of the partition Jews were attacked. 10,000s of irregular forces invaded as early as January 1948 - and there were massacres of Jews throughout the land. Such as this one in Feb 1948.
They were not innnocent victims. 6/13
Pre-plan? This one is wrapped up in antisemitic ideas of Jewish power. The Jews couldn't pre-plan anything and for a while they thought they might lose. An intelligence report from the British in April has it the other way around - with the Arabs trying to get the Jews out. 7/13
The myth of a one sided slaughter is easy to dispel too. This nugget from the British archives shows that just a few weeks before the Arabs invaded - there were equal casualties on both sides. It was a bloody civil conflict. 8/13
The myth of the demographic threat (the motive for expulsion) is just them clutching at straws.
The Jews did not have a number problem. 100,000s of Jews were still stuck in Europe - just waiting for the doors of Israel to open. Israel's population doubled - quickly. 9/13
The Arab states didn't need to invade anything. The Arabs could have accepted Partition, nobody would have got hurt - and the Palestinians would have had their state. The Arabs had long been promising they would invaded- just to destroy anything the Jews built. 10/13
Which means all of the pillars that the Nakba Day is built on are lies. They are pushing myths.
Their narrative is nothing but deception and antisemitic propaganda. 11/13
worse still - the myth has become like a religion. They say that to question it is as bad as Holocaust denial.
This belittles the industrial genocide of the Jews - inverts the Holocaust by implying the Jews act like Nazis and equates the Holocaust with a Palestinian myth. 12/13
In short - the Arabs wanted the conflict - they started the conflict - and they lost - badly. Their 'Nakba' is their failure to wipe out the Jews. 13/13
Exclusive: @bbcnews deliberately held back truth about dog attack story - whitewashing a family of terrorists and then butchering an IDF statement to make sure YOU never got to hear about it.
Why is this allowed to happen @rburgessbbc?
Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️1/16
Last week BBC published an article about an attack on a man with Down's syndrome who was 'mauled'by an IDF dog.
It was penned by @fergalkeane47 - an amateur BBC hack who acts like an activist from Electronic Intifada
So I went digging to see what he was hiding from you. 2/16
The first person to talk about the attack on Mohammed Bahr online was his brother - Mekael Bahr.
Except Mekael works for an Islamic Jihad propaganda channel. Here he is in a VIP media position at an Islamic Jihad anniversary. 3/16
I have obtained internal BBC documents that prove not only did @bbcnews spread a blatant fake news story - but that prove the BBC uses Al Jazeera and Hamas channels as sources for its updates.
Unforgivable and inexcusable. 1/10
Thread ⬇️⬇️
Between January 22th and January 28th following fights between Hamas and Israeli forces - Palestinians said they buried over 200 bodies in the courtyard of Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis. No doubt almost all terrorists. 2/10
In April the Palestinians pretended to 'discover' a mass grave at Nasser hospital. It was blatant fake news. Anyone comparing images from the January 'burial' to the April 'discovery' could see it was the same spot. The same buildings are even clearly visible 3/10
As our university spaces turn into intimidating pro-terrorist encampments - the BBC just published a whitewash about a 'peaceful and proud' protest camp at Newcastle University.
Another @bbcnews piece written by an amateur hack who knows nothing and does no research. 1/6 ⬇️⬇️
The face of the Newcastle camp and a key driver of the recent anti-Israel activism on campus (and wider afield in Newcastle) is Hala Hanina a Palestinian PhD student. 2/6
The BBC present the protest as peaceful & want you to believe it is 'kumbaya for all'.
But Palestinian activism is all about destroying Israel.
Here is Hala on Oct 8 calling Hamas & Islamic Jihad terrorists 'honourable' and denying atrocities they carried out. 3/6
Dear @AlJazeera and western journalists who have been acting as Hamas propagandists today (like @AlexCrawfordSky from @skynews and of course @pressfreedom)
I have a question about Ismael Al-Ghoul who was arrested today.
Thread ⬇️⬇️
Thing is all his accounts are new - all very suspicious so I went looking for an old one. And I found one.
I used software to conform the identity from images. And this is the journalist Ismail Alghoul. He stopped using the account in November - when he opened his new one.
And guess what I found on the account of this arrested 'Al Jazeera' journalist...
Things like this - on the eve of the 2021 conflict - glorifying / threatening / promising rocket fire on Israel
