The hypocrisy behind cutting aid to Palestinians
Countries that cut UNRWA funding lack any ethical justification for their action, given their own historical records
“If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been antisemitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?”
David Ben-Gurion, the first Israeli Prime Minister
The current assault on Gaza leaves many questions unanswered. In the above quote, David Ben-Gurion seems to recognize that antisemitism is not a Palestinian phenomenon. Jewish Arabs, Christian Arabs, and Muslim Arabs had always lived in a relatively peaceful coexistence until the British became involved in the region.
We also forget that throughout the centuries of European antisemitism and ethnic cleansing, European Jews found refuge throughout the Ottoman Empire and had been thriving for centuries before the birth of modern Israel.
Something interesting happened almost immediately after the International Court of Justice........
