Will Israel learn from its history or be doomed to repeat its mistakes?

Israel succeeded in what it is good at destroying, killing children and women and assassinating leaders, in killing Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. But the Israelis are only deceiving themselves if they think that through their crimes, they can accomplish success for their colonial project and force the Palestinian people to surrender.

Since its establishment in Palestine in 1948, Israel has committed hundreds of massacres, killing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, ethnically cleansing over seventy per cent of the Palestinian people, destroying 530 villages and towns, and now the entire Gaza strip, it has poisoned Fatah and PLO leader Yasser Arafat, assassinated his deputy Khalil al-Wazir in Tunisia, killed Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, Ismael Haniyeh, and assassinated dozens of other Palestinian leaders; but Israel did not achieve victory and did not advance its colonial project an iota.

If Israel could not force the Palestinian people to surrender in 1948, when they were weak and displaced, it would not be able to do so today when they are stronger, more numerous and organised.

The more crimes Israel........
