the nakbe
here’s one of very very very few articles in the endless ream of articles on israeli-palestinian conflict that addresses what i think is the most important issue: that israel is allowed to be a victim and is allowed to set the terms of negotiation in a world that has forgotten the nakbe (the 1948 palestinian exodus/catastrophe engineered by jewish forces).
since when has furthering the cause of justice demanded that the oppressed “make concessions” before even the supposition of any reparations are to be made? were the jews expected to compromise their victimhood before the nuremberg trials were held?
