Who is the Occupier?

by Steven Shamrak

It has become very common and ‘trendy’ to say and write that Israel is an occupier of Arab land. Unfortunately, many true Zionists are exhausted after challenging this baseless Arab and anti-Israel propaganda rhetoric year after year. Therefore, even many Jews have started to believe this lie!

I prefer to rely on facts not emotional or politically motivated fantasies. I would say, and historical facts support it, that Arabs are occupiers of Jewish land.

As part of the Palestine mandate: Trans-Jordan, the Golan Heights, Judea, Samaria, and Gaza were allocated for creation of the Jewish State. The British government was appointed as a custodian of the mandate. Before the Mandate system was created, Jews started to return to their homeland in the 1880's and created agriculture and industries in the desolated land of ancient Israel, economic migration of Arabs followed. Later, the British helped to facilitate the politicly motivated migration of Arabs/Muslims to Jewish land.

In 1922 the British illegally separated Trans-Jordan from mandate in exchange for control of the Sinai and gave the Golan Heights to France. The League of Nations - controlled by the UK and France - rubber stamped the 'deal'.

Jews were not allowed to live in Trans-Jordan, but Arabs were encouraged to move and live on the Western bank of the river Jordan. So, I would like to ask you now, who is the real occupier?

We must stop believing in the lies of Jewish enemies!  We must set our own goals and regain the rightful ownership of the Jewish land! Jewish people and Israel have spiritual, historical, moral and legal rights to all Jewish land! We must ignore the ‘legal’ illegality imposed on Jews by, generally, an anti-Semitic and oil dependent international community.
