4️⃣ The UN draws a line—literally. In 1947, the UN proposed a Partition Plan: 55% to Jews 45% to Arabs Jerusalem: international zone Jews accepted. Arabs rejected — arguing the land was already theirs. The fuse was lit. #UNResolution181 #PartitionPlan

ZIONIST LIE: "British Mandate = No Palestine" FACT: Mandate’s #Article22 (League of Nations Covenant) rqd Britain to prepare 🇵🇸 for independence, not colonization. UN’s 1947 #PartitionPlan was NON-BINDING (+rejected by Security Council) & violated the right to self-determinatioVa

@daphnelafertc @Nermeenalswaisi Zionists have taken Palestine hostage since 1948. BRING PALESTINIANS HOME! And #ABOLISHisrael! The Zionist state has been forever Illegitimate. The UN banned colonisation in 1945 and the Security Council REJECTED the UN #PartitionPlan vote. ZIONIST ISRAEL EXISTS ON A LIE!

4/10: Tensions escalated in the 1940s, leading to the 1947 UN partition plan, which proposed to divide Palestine into Jewish and Arab states. This plan was met with opposition from Arab nations, resulting in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. #PartitionPlan

“Today is the anniversary of the #PartitionPlan for #Palestine. It gave a slightly larger area to the Jews, in anticipation of the millions of refugees from #Europe, but most of that land was deserts and swamps. #Jews celebrated, even though it was much less than they hoped for to defend, and formally accepted partition. Arabs mostly rejected any form of partition; the General Secretary of the Arab League warned that there would be a war of elimination, and the Mufti said that the #Arabs did not intend merely to prevent partition but "would continue fighting until the #Zionists were annihilated." Accordingly, the Arabs launched a war, which they ended up losing, causing many #Arab lives to be lost and hundreds of thousands to flee. Had they won, the deaths on the side of the Jews would doubtless have been far greater, especially since the Jews had nowhere to which to flee. Today, #Palestinians have been encouraged by their leadership and others to believe that they had a right to violently resist partition. They further believe that they should not be responsible for the consequences of their decisions. Accordingly, their losses in the #1948 war are entirely the fault of the Jews, and Israel is obligated to make up for the terrible crimes that it committed with the #Naqba. This means that the descendants of the Palestinian refugees should all be allowed to return. The #Jewish perspective is that if you declare a war and you lose, then there are consequences, just as the Jews suffered immensely from their failed revolt against the #Romans. And if it's a war in which you intend to annihilate the other side, this is all the more true. At various stages Israel was open to a #Palestinian State alongside it, including all the way from 1947 through after the '67 war, and again for several years in the 1990s. And there are still many people in Israel who would still be open to it - IF it could be relied upon to be a safe and secure solution. But what has become increasingly clear is that most Palestinians want "justice," and "justice" in their minds means that they get to undo the results of the 1948 conflict (which they started). This is the core of the conflict and the reason why it cannot be solved.” A quote from the illustrious @NatanSlifkin This is it in a nutshell.
