Introduction
The Palestinian Nakba is unsurpassed in history. This is a fact that cannot be denied, but it is concealed from and denied by most of the Western world. The concealment of this fact is a crime under international law. It is crucial to examine the facts to gain a comprehensive understanding of this issue. First, a foreign army from Europe invaded Palestine in late 1910. It occupied the land of Palestine by force of arms through a trail of massacres. It was emptied of its people, who were driven into refugee camps. Second, Palestine’s physical and cultural landmarks were systematically obliterated. Its geography was taken over and renamed fictitiously by the invaders. Its history was erased from all records and replaced by a mythical version. Its heritage was expropriated as the invader’s own. Third, Israeli airplanes, tanks, and artillery have been consistently bombing the victims in refugee camps and everywhere over the past 75 years.
