"Peace will come only as a result of the Palestinian people being free from Israeli military rule and #apartheid policies, and #PalestinianRefugees being allowed to return to the homes from which #Israel exiled them more than 75 years ago." - #JoshRuebner

"To counter this insidious attempt at #Nakba memoricide by U.S. politicians and others, it is instructive to review the archives of U.S. diplomats stationed in #Palestine and surrounding Arab countries who witnessed the Nakba unfold and reported back to the #StateDepartment on the magnitude and gravity of #Israel’s dispossession of Palestine’s indigenous inhabitants." - #JoshRuebner

Middle East InstituteFive things the United States knew about the Nakba as it unfoldedAn estimated 750,000 Palestinians were either driven from their homes or fled during the Nakba in 1948. To counter attempts at Nakba denial and "memoricide" by U.S. politicians and others, it is instructive to review the archives of U.S. diplomats stationed in Palestine and surrounding Arab countries who witnessed the Nakba unfold and reported back on the magnitude and gravity of Israel’s dispossession of Palestine’s indigenous inhabitants.
"The US actually understood quite early on that the partition plan as proposed by #UNSCOP was not workable and not feasible [..] The US did more than think about going back on partition. In March 1948 [..] the US actually proposed in the Security Council that an international trusteeship be appointed for #Palestine instead of partition." - #JoshRuebner

"While the #Biden administration proclaims its opposition to the forced displacement of #Palestinians beyond international borders [..] the White House requested up to $3.5 billion 'to address potential needs of #Gaza|ns fleeing to neighboring countries.' In other words, the Biden administration is anticipating the very #EthnicCleansing that Dichter, a member of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud Party, is threatening."
