One of the central tenets of the #Zionist and #Israeli #colonization is the denial of an authentic, independent #Palestinian #identity.

During the #British control of #Palestine, the population was officially divided between Jews and “non-Jews.”

“There were no such thing as #Palestinians … they did not exist,” onetime Israeli Prime Minister #GoldaMeir quipped.

This erasure, which requires an egregious act of #historical amnesia, is what the Israeli sociologist Baruch Kimmerling called the “politicide” of the Palestinian people.

Khalidi writes, “The surest way to eradicate a people’s right to their land is to deny their historical connection to it.”
