The Zionists and their supporters may have mouthed slogans such as “a land without a people for a people without a land” in speaking of #Palestine, but, as the political philosopher Hannah Arendt observed, European powers were attempting to deal with the crime carried out against Jews in #Europe by committing another crime, one against #Palestinians.

It was a recipe for endless #conflict, especially since giving the Palestinians under #occupation full democratic rights would risk loss of control of #Israel by the Jews.
