Analysis of Israeli-Palestinian Propaganda
The Israeli propaganda machine is huge, and it just tried to intercept me when
I was researching something about Palestine.
So I've been reading The 100 Years' War on Palestine.
There's a quote in here from a guy called Theodor Herzl.
Herzl is the modern father of Zionism, and he had some
interesting ideas which ultimately did lead to the creation
of Israel, but he also
said some
not so good things. I was researching this quote from his diary,
which basically
says that when Jewish people finally secure some land, in this context it was
Palestine, that the plan was to buy out poor people, try
and find them
employment in other countries, and that Jewish people should deny
people in that land employment. And he uses lines like this: "Both the
process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be
carried out
discreetly and circumspectly." So he wrote down loads of ideas of what to do with
the people occupying the land that they want, but to be fair to him,
he did say
that if they don't go, we should treat them nicely.
And as we can see, they most definitely didn't follow
that part.
So I wanted to learn more about the quote, so I Googled it, and the first thing
that comes up is the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in
America, or
CAMERA for short. And when you look into the organization,
it's just a pro-Israeli
propaganda machine that monitors news and academia to try and counter anything
that's, like, pro-Palestine or anti-Israel.
So the guy who wrote the article about Theodor Herzl's diary saying that, "Oh,
no,
this quote was taken out of context," and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So this guy recently liked a tweet when an Israeli minister said
that we should use
atomic weapons in Gaza. It is just a pure propaganda machine, so
please research carefully.
