Palestine Conflict (Last Episode)

After all, the land has been occupied by the Israeli’s and the peace talks have ended in 2014 which gave rise to the new era of conflicts. Violence has increased significantly over the years and the Jews were having eyes on the holy city of Jerusalem. The resistance from the people of Palestine was increasing day by day and now the conflicts increased to a larger extent as the Israeli forces have been pushing hard to capture the Holy city of Jerusalem. Finally, in 2017, the city of Jerusalem was occupied by the Israeli forces. In 2017 with the support of the international community especially America the capital of Israel was changed from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Hamas is the group which is constantly in conflict with the forces of Israel. Gaza was considered to be free from  Israel in 2005 but today the Gaza strip is also under the control of Israel. Within the Palestinians there are two groups one is supporting Mahmood Abbas and the other is Hamas on the Gaza strip and in this situation the international community is supporting the group who is supporting Mahmood Abbas. The administrative arrangement of Mahmood Abbas is considered as legitimate administration. Currently, the immigration towards Jordan is also quite rapid which is making the control of Palestinians on their land quite weak. After the declaration of the new Israeli capital Jerusalem, the people of Palestine went on the back foot. Now the conflicts between the citizens of Palestine and the forces of Israel are increasing and the silence of the international community is adding the fuel to the fire.

UN has failed to maintain peace in the region and provide the Palestinians their basic rights to live in their homeland and the support of the international powers with Israel has made the stance of the anti-Arab movement in the region very clear. Israeli forces are using the brutal system to evacuate the remaining land which is present in the form of occupied Palestine.

Palestine

Zionist movements further strengthened and the land which was being purchased by the Jews increased further leading to a larger Israel. International recognition of Palestine as the homeland of Jews. Till 1930 there were no evident conflicts between the Palestinians and the Jews settling in Palestine. Palestinians were trying to maintain peaceful relations with the international community and the British people. When the Zionist movements continued it gave birth to new conflicts between the Arabs in Palestine and the Jews settling in Palestine. Three men who were accused of giving the strength to conflicts were executed.

Jews were having eyes on more and more land of Palestine. Every year the land allocated to the Jews in Palestine was tripling. In 1935 the Jewish immigrants in Palestine numbered to almost 60,000 and this seriously frightened the people of Palestine. This was also the indication of the rising state of Israel. People of Palestine were having an eye on the Holy city of Jerusalem. Occupied land of Palestine increased up to a huge extent and the conflicts kept on increasing which changed the shape of conflicts to the fight for freedom. In the absence of the international support, the people of occupied Palestine with the new name of Israel could only watch their homeland going in the hands of Jews. Sheikh Izz Ad-Din Al-Qassam made the revolutionary conflicting army to fight against the Zionist movement but his men were stricken down by the British army.

British fully supported the movement of Jews for a new Israel and their movement was rendered as a national movement. Flag of Israel was anchored in Tel Aviv and Tel Aviv was declared as the capital of Israel in the 1920’s. With the passage of time and in the 1930’s the situation got worse for the people of Palestine as they were deprived of their basic rights and they were pushed to immigrate to the neighboring country like Jordan. International silence and the British role in humiliating the Palestinian people was very prominent.

Palestine Conflict (Episode-3)

Jews watched the space to make Hebrew the official language of Palestine and put forward their recommendation to do so. In 1908 Najib Nissar indicated in his writings about the Zionist movements. Arabs and Palestinians were aware of the Zionist concept right from the beginning and they kept an eye on their movements. In 1914 World War added more fuel to the fire and the area of Occupied Palestine increased further. British settlement in the land of Palestine pushed the people of Palestine to leave and the post-settlement situation was full of conflicts. In 1915 the Memorandum with the name of “The Future Palestine” was the base for the new homeland of Jews in the land of Palestine.

In 1917 the British cabinet approved the establishment of the Jewish state in the land of Palestine. Rothschild convinced the British government to make a clear statement regarding the establishment of the Jewish state who was watching clear opportunities for cash. On December 11, 1917, the British Army led by General Edmund Allenby attacked Jerusalem and occupied the land. One of the members of the army David Ben-Gurion, later on, became the Prime Minister of Israel. 50,000 Jews settled in newly occupied Palestine now called Israel which was approximately 10 % of the population. The conflicts ended in 1918 after the Peace Conference in Paris.

People of Palestine were totally against the capturing of their Holy city and the conflicts were more likely to increase. Israel was limited to the Holy city at this time. The Faisal Bin Hassan agreement with Weizmann acted as approval in the eyes of the historians about the verification of the Jewish homeland in Palestine. This was the rapid start of the expansion of Israel.  In 1919 the Zionist movements speeded up and the information was collected by the Jewish people by keeping an eye on which of the Arabs were ready to sell their land. Jews were strengthening their international alliances. In 1920 Herbert Samuel was appointed as British High Commissioner for Palestine. Herbert Samuel was given the responsibility to make Israel legally visible.

Palestine Conflict (Episode: 2)

In 1907 the British Government established a committee to make a strategy to bring the people of Muslim Arab who were part of the Ottoman Empire towards the purpose. The committee after their work in the region reported to the British Prime Minister Henry Cambell Bannerman to establish an unbiased state which neither has any conflict with the Jews and the people of Palestine. The committee recommended establishing strong relations with the rest of Europe and the neighboring countries in order to increase the dominance of British influence. The survival of this unbiased state is dependent upon the European colonialism. Moreover, such a state could survive by keeping the neighboring states weak.

Europeans were of the opinion that the establishment of the Jewish state would be good for them as they feel more comfortable with Jews as compared to the Arabs. In 1907 Chaim Weizmann an emerging chemist who had a deep eye on the land of Palestine wanted to establish the company in Jaffa which would make the plan to occupy Palestine and convert it into Israel easier to implement. His business was supported by Barron de Rothschild. When the business was started the major business deal was closed within the first three years of business operations. In the region of Marj Ibn Amer in Palestine 10,000 dunums of land was purchased which disturbed the farmers in Palestine. It was the Jewish National Fund which purchased the land and it seemed that the land was occupied by the Jews.

Almost 60,000 were pushed to leave the land of Marj Ibn Amer and this was a clear indication of the first big occupied chunk for the Jews in the land of Palestine. This colonialism was very rapid because it was intended not only to exploit the people of Palestine but it was intended to force them out of the land and bring the land under the occupation of Jews. Zionist movements started to be more severe and the occupied land of Palestine was turning into Israel making Israel and the emerging Jewish state. The only way to occupy the land was to force the farmers out of the land and let the Jews from Yemen and the rest of Europe to settle in the land.

Root Cause of Muslim’s Devastation

As a Muslim, we are concerned about the Palestine territory as well as about our Muslim brother as they are massacred in routine.

The root cause of Muslims being defeated in all areas and being massacred in all parts of the world is that they have left practicing their religion’s teachings.  Muslim’s life on this planet is directly connected with their deeds. They have the option to do good deeds and they will be given a good life here. Otherwise, they will be punished severely

Conflict History

Basically modern Palestine conflict’s history is based in 1799 when Napoleon Bonaparte has surrounded the Ottoman Controlled Palestine. He, to secure allies, offered Jews the Land of Palestine while saying that Palestinians are their opponents for ages.

Napoleon’s voice was widely raised but he could not be able to succeed in his motto. Later on British rulers for the purpose of controlling the Egyptian Governor Muhammad Ali’s influence at around 1840s. At that time there was a smaller proportion perhaps two or three thousand in Ottoman-controlled Palestine. But in later years, immigration rate increase supported by French and British sponsors as well. It looks, it was totally a planned activity to give birth to the Jewish state in Palestine. Some of these sponsors are still very famous amongst the Israeli School Children and their remains are still protected in Israel.

The term Zionism was first used in around late 19^th century by an Author. Actually, Zion is the ancient name of the Jerusalem deduced through Bible.

At the ending of the 19^th century, a journalist Herzl predicted the foundation of the Jewish state in the Palestine area. Herzl along with two others have called the First Zionist Congress in Basel’s Swiss city and this Congress has adopted the agenda of the establishment of the Jewish state in Palestine.
