Yes, the Palestinians have a history of settlement in Palestine that goes back a very long time.They were carelessly and callously displaced from their homeland in 1948 through the use of mass terror and military might by the Zionist gangs and the newly formed and well armed Israeli military.
The Palestinians have been bombed,brutalised ,slaughtered and humiliated ever since by the one of the most powerful military machine in the world which uses modern jet attack planes ,apache helicopters, heavy tanks,artillery and snipers to slaughter Palestinians...civilians and fighters alike.
Israel has become an ugly,militarised and thuggish regime full of discriminatory laws.It is intent on expelling the Palestinians from their homeland by force and by coerction. It is reminiscent of the way the Aboriginal peoples of Australia and America were expelled from their homelands.
Although Zionism has been criticised the role of the USA has also been a callous one in the long story of the suffering of the Palestinian people.Israel has been armed to the hilt with all kinds of killing machines .Its economy has been bankrolled by the USA .The USA has backed Israel at the UN and at all diplomatic gatherings .And of course the Palestinians have been marginalised and demonised.
However there is a growing worldwide grassroots recognition that the Palestinians have been an oppresssed people ,long bullied and beaten and denied basic civic,human and humanitarian rights.
A free Palestine will come but its people need solidarity!
