The Holy Land
It’s known that God has blessed the region between Al-Arish and Euphrates river. It was anciently known as Canaan.
Canaan, the name of the Arabian tribes that lived there. During those years, some prophets and God’s messengers lived and were raised there. It was the land that endured a lot throughout the years.
It’s also widely known that both World wars (I and II) have left a significant impact on most countries, some of which are still suffering from the severe consequences of these wars to this present moment. The most popular struggling case is the occupied land of Palestine.
Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire at the time of the first World War, and since the world at the time was divided into two blocs; The Triple Entente (consisted of Britain, France, and Russia) and The Triple Alliance (consisted of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy). Germany at the time had signed a mutual defence treaty with the Ottoman Empire, which meant that the Ottoman Empire was opposing Britain during the first World War. During that time, the Empire kept faltering, eventually collapsed, and divided among the Triple Entente.
Britain was allocated control of areas between the Mediterranean Sea and the River Jordan, Jordan, and southern Iraq. This included the land of Palestine.
During that time, the British Government of Prime Minister David Lloyd George decided to publicly support Zionism, which was a movement led by a Russian Jew who lived in Manchester. The Government was aiming to gain Jewish support for the Allies through a formal declaration that would lure them in.
This led to the “Balfour Declaration” in the year 1917, a year before WWI ended. It declared to "favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, but that nothing should be done to prejudice the civil and religious rights of the existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine." For Britain, having a piece of land as a bridge between its crucial territories that it had occupied (India and Egypt) was of a vital importance to gain complete control. The establishment of a Zionist state there, under British protection, would accomplish this goal. (وعد من لا يملك لمن لا يستحق)
In older days, Jews, Christians, and Muslims lived peacefully on one land, sharing food, working, and celebrating religious Holidays together. This civil behaviour and mutual respect disappeared into thin air after the Balfour Declaration. To the Jews, The Balfour Declaration was the cornerstone of a future Jewish homeland from the Nile to the Euphrates river, occupying the Arabian lands lying in between, rather forcefully. To the Arabs, this was the beginning of their concerns.
There were 9% of the entire population who were Jews living in Palestine at the start of the British mandate. Between 1922 and 1935, this percentage increased to over 27 percent of the entire population due to the immigration of European Jews under British permission. During the 1920s relations between the Jewish and Arab populations deteriorated and the hostility and violence on the Jews’ part majorly intensified.
As WWII ended, the United Nations (UN) was formed which led to the consideration of the Palestinian case. Councils were held, and representatives from countries around the globe attended, till the UN decided to what it saw as a “fair” division. In Chapter VI of the report of September 3, 1947, the majority of the Committee (formed of Australia, Canada, Czechoslovakia, Guatemala, India, Iran, Netherlands, Peru, Sweden, Uruguay and Yugoslavia) proposed recommendations for consideration by the General Assembly that:
"Palestine within its present borders, following a transitional period of two years from September 1, 1947, shall be constituted into an independent Arab State, an independent Jewish State, and the city of Jerusalem".
This further fuelled the zionists’ sense of entitlement to a piece of the land. The Arab Sate was estimated to be 11,000 km^2, the Jewish was 15,000 km^2, and Jerusalem was to be put under the control of the United Nations (again, not anyone’s land but the Arab Palestinians).
This oppressing (and certainly inhumane division) was met with rage and uproar from the Arabs, when it was agreed upon on the 29th of November 1947. Fights began on both sides, and Britain interfered. British forces evacuated Palestinians from their homes and held a huge massacre with the help of Israelis in Deir Yassin, a peaceful village where around 600 Palestinian citizens lived and on the 9th of April 1948, killed.
The British Mandate lived on the holy land till the 15th of May 1948. A day before its farewell, Ben-Gurion, the primary national founder and the first Prime Minister of Israel, declared the establishment of the state of “Israel”. This declaration said that it should:
"ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture; it will safeguard the Holy Places of all religions; and it will be faithful to the principles of the Charter of the United Nations".
The Jews never followed through with this declaration, nor the peace declarations which later followed through the years and up to this day, even though they don’t have the rights they thought they were entitled to. The massacres continue, the violations of the Palestinian and Arab rights are still being injected in the Middle East. They want to spread their poison and they want to annihilate the original land owners, they want to eradicate and demolish the Arab Palestinians.
What happened in the occupied Lands of Palestine only over the past month (let alone the pst 75+ yrs) is a reminder of their intentions, they intend to rape the Palestinians out of their identities. They want to take over the Arabs’ land. They oppressed the original citizens, burnt down their houses, killed their women and children, bombed down their civilisation, and they prohibited Arabs from entering the first of the Qiblatain and third holy mosque.
