Hamas-Affiliated Gazan Journalist In Article On Occasion Of Nakba Day: Palestine Was Lost Because Palestinians Heeded Advice Of Arab Regimes To Leave Their Homes
On Nakba Day this year (May 15, 2022), Ibrahim Al-Madhoun, a Gazan journalist affiliated with Hamas, published an article on the Hamas website palinfo.. discussing the reasons for the Nakba and for the situation of the Palestinians today. Titled "The Nakba from a Different Perspective," the article claims that the Palestinians left their homes and villages in 1948 in compliance with the advice of the Arab armies, who promised to fight on their behalf but failed to deliver on this promise. This, he says, is what caused the Palestinians to lose their homeland.

To cite just one example: In the period from 1920-1940 .. Hadj Amin el-Husseini... Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, the one who was the instigator of the riots of 1938 and the same who is immortalized in a photo with Hitler. Besides, nothing is said about the entire period from 1920 to 1945, except about the strike.
And it is precisely this period that is so important in history, because it can tell you a lot about the separation that then occurred between Jews and Arabs.
The last word has not yet been said about the reasons for the Palestinians' flight:
the Lebanese newspaper Sada al-Janub has called for flights; the Jordanian Daily, Felastin, of 17.05.1955 describes how the evacuation of Akko of 17.05.1948 went according to plan;
in the Felastin of 19.02.1949 and in the Cairo Daily people call for an evacuation.
All this while the Jews sometimes asked the Palestinians to stay (see e.g. the placard of the Haifa Worker's Council). No, Dr. Wagtendonk, you have been misinformed a bit.
Also the disaster of Deir-Yassin would not have happened if the Arabs had not started firing after the 'white flag' had been raised.
Moreover, the culprits were severely punished. I do not deny that the Palestinians have become victims.. but the history must be well described and then it is noticeable that the problem would not have arisen to the same extent if the Arab governments had not manipulated with the Arab Palestinians and that the vast majority of Arabs would have been absorbed into Israeli society.

The Mufti (the one who worked for Hitler) also encouraged the coward Arabs to flee.

It's hilarious that this joker has suddenly agreed with Israelis -- that is exactly what did happen, and the left and other jihadists have denied that for decades.
We drove them out with micro-aggressions.
Smart move!
