Israel: Zionism
In the 16th and 17th centuries a number of “messiahs” came forward trying to persuade Jews to “return” to Palestine.
The Haskala (“Jewish Enlightenment”) movement of the late 18th century, however, urged Jews to assimilate into Western secular culture. In the early 19th century interest in a return of the Jews to Palestin. Despite the Haskala, eastern European Jews did not assimilate and, in reaction to tsarist pogroms, formed the Ḥovevei Ẕiyyon (“Lovers of Zion”) to promote the settlement of Jewish farmers and artisans in Palestine.
A political turn was given to Zionism by Theodor Herzl, an Austrian journalist who regarded assimilation as most desirable but, in view of anti-Semitism, impossible to realize. Thus, he argued, if Jews were forced by external pressure to form a nation, they could lead a normal existence only through concentration in one territory. In 1897 Herzl convened the first Zionist Congress at Basel, Switzerland, which drew up the Basel program of the movement, stating that “Zionism strives to create for the Jewish people a home in Palestine secured by public law.”
The centre of the movement was established in Vienna, where Herzl published the official weekly Die Welt (“The World”). Zionist congresses met yearly until 1901 and then every two years. When the Ottoman government refused Herzl’s request for Palestinian autonomy, he found support in Great Britain. In 1903 the British government offered 6,000 square miles (15,500 square km) of uninhabited Uganda for settlement, but the Zionists held out for Palestine.
At the death of Herzl in 1904, the leadership moved from Vienna to Cologne and then to Berlin. Prior to World War I, Zionism represented only a minority of Jews, mostly from Russia but led by Austrians and Germans. It developed propaganda through orators and pamphlets, created its own newspapers, and gave an impetus to what was called a “Jewish renaissance” in letters and arts. The development of the Modern Hebrew language largely took place during that period.
The failure of the Russian Revolution of 1905 and the wave of pogroms and repressions that followed caused growing numbers of Russian Jewish youth to emigrate to Palestine as pioneer settlers. By 1914 there were about 90,000 Jews in Palestine; 13,000 settlers lived in 43 Jewish agricultural settlements, many of them supported by the French Jewish philanthropist Baron Edmond de Rothschild.

Israel imposing ‘apartheid’ on Palestinians: Amnesty
Israeli authorities must be held accountable for enforcing a system of oppression and domination against Palestinians, Amnesty International says.
Israeli authorities must be held accountable for enforcing a system of oppression and domination against Palestinians, Amnesty International says.
“A Palestinian state never existed”.
It does and it did, it was just under occupation before the UN partition plan of 1947.
The 1947 partition plan split Palestine to accommodate a newly created Israel.
When the Palestinians fought in the 1948 war, they didn’t fight to reject their own statehood, they fought against the partition of their land.
Upon winning the war in 1948, Israel illegally occupied large swathes of Palestinians land, beyond their allocated borders.
And continues to illegally occupy ever-increasing amounts of Palestinian land today through illegal “Israeli settlements”.
The defence:
- Israel has been designated an apartheid state by several human rights organisations, and by many countries (that’s a crime against humanity, defined by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, Article 7).
- It illegally occupies large swathes of Palestinian land.
- It regularly kills innocent, unarmed civilians in the name of “self-defense” (that’s a crime against humanity, defined by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, Article 7).
- Countless IDF soldiers have said the deliberate deprivation, terror and subjugation it puts the Palestinians under.
- It practices ethnic-cleansing (that’s a crime against humanity, defined by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, Article 7).
- It regularly attacks the press for simply doing their job.
- The time-span and systematic way in which all this has been going on for, is equal to no other in the post-war world.

Saudi Arabia has said that any solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict would need to include an independent Palestinian state, with east Jerusalem as its capital.
The statement was made by Saudi Foreign Minister, Faisal Al-Saud, at the UN General Assembly on Saturday night.
This is as true as dusk and dawn.
Because Saudis know, unless this happens, then they normalising relations with Israel makes no difference in the region.

The UN will continue to advocate for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in all their contacts, spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said yesterday.
Dujarric answered journalists’ questions at a daily press conference, where he was asked about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s presenting of a map of “a new Middle East” during his speech last week at the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York in which Palestine is not visible.
“We can’t control nor do we wish to control what member states say or what they display at the podium,” he said.
He said the map does not reflect the stance of the UN, “but we are continuing to advocate for a two-state solution in all our contacts.”
Saying he could not yet confirm whether a letter from the Palestinian permanent representation condemning Netanyahu’s action had reached the UN Secretary-General, Dujarric stressed that such actions did not change the UN’s stance.
Asked by a journalist whether Israel supports the two-state solution, he said: “I do not speak for the prime minister of Israel. You should ask them what they believe in.”

Israel sets record for illegal settlement approvals: Rights group
Peace Now said that Israel has approved the construction of almost 13,000 housing units in illegal settlements, the most since the group began tracking.
Israel’s far-right government has approved record construction in illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank in its first six months in power, according to the left-wing Israeli movement Peace Now.
The organisation said that the construction of 12,855 settler housing units had been approved across the West Bank since January, the largest number it has recorded since it started tracking such developments in 2012.
Israel’s Higher Planning Council (HPC) met three times this year for the purpose of promoting construction plans, it added.
Settlement expansions have become a top priority for the new government.
