77 Years of Unabated Nakba
By: Kayhan Int’l Staff Writer
Today May 15 is the 77th anniversary of “Yowm an-Nakba” or the “Day of Catastrophe” following the illegitimate birth of Israel a day earlier after over a quarter century of the rape of Palestine by Britain and its illegal settlement of thousands of east European non-Israelite and non-Semitic Khazar claimants to Judaism in this Muslim Arab land.
Nakba, when gangs of Zionist terrorists went on rampage against the sons of the soil to kill hundreds of Muslim and Christian Palestinians, and to drive into exile almost a million men, women, and children, was not an isolated instance of history.
In fact, it has continued since 1948, not every year, but almost every day. This is evident by the unabated genocide in Gaza over the past year-and-a-half and the latest announcement by the bloodthirsty regime of Benjamin Netanyahu of annexation of the West Bank of River Jordan to the illegitimate entity similar to the annexation of Syria’s Golan Heights in 1981.
The UN, which had served as midwife in 1948 to the birth of the bastard called Israel, has never truly sympathized with the sufferings and slaughter of the Palestinian people, other than issuing toothless resolutions.
Examples in this regard are UNSC Resolution 242 on Israel’s withdrawal from the 1967 occupied Arab territories and 497 that merely used the words “null and void” without any practical step to stop Israel’s annexation of Syria’s Golan Heights.
The so-called World Body has always toed the line of the powers that run it from behind the scene. It sheds no tears for the Palestinians uprooted from their centuries-old homes and hearths and made to live as ‘undesirable’ refugees in the squalid camps of neighbouring countries, on the flimsy basis of the myth of the holocaust.
It is an undeniable fact that the so-called holocaust supposed to have been perpetrated by the German Nazis who allegedly burnt in gas chambers six million Jews, when the fact of the matter is that the total number of Jews in Europe (Russia included), never numbered more than three million, has no connection with Palestine.
To be brief, the Nakba has come to depict the story of a nation deprived of its homeland on which the occupiers reap the benefits, while the sons of the soil are subjected to all sorts of atrocities and called ‘terrorists’ whenever they retaliate against the unabated crimes being committed against Palestine and the Palestinian people.
