The Role of the Rothschild Family in Supporting the Zionist Project and Palestine

The Rothschild family was one of the main players in achieving the goals of the Zionist movement, which sought to establish a national homeland for Jews in Palestine since the late 19th century. In collaboration with the leadership of the Zionist movement, led by Theodor Herzl, the family attempted to influence Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II. Their efforts included offering generous proposals, such as repaying the massive Ottoman state debts or granting favorable loans in exchange for allowing Jewish immigration and ownership of land in Palestine. Despite these attempts, Sultan Abdul Hamid refused to sell any part of Palestine, emphasizing that it was not his property but the inheritance of the Islamic nation.

After negotiations with the Ottoman state failed, the Rothschild family shifted its strategy and focused on financing illegal Jewish immigration to Palestine. Through intermediaries and Zionist institutions, the family supported the purchase and development of Palestinian lands to establish agricultural settlements. The Rothschilds also heavily funded educational and agricultural projects to settle Jewish immigrants and build infrastructure that supported the establishment of an independent community, making them among the most prominent supporters of the Zionist project.

Following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire after World War I, achieving Zionist goals became easier under the British Mandate. Zionists took advantage of strong relationships with major colonial powers, especially Britain, which issued the 1917 Balfour Declaration supporting the establishment of a national home for Jews in Palestine. The Rothschild family had significant influence on Britain, with the declaration officially addressed to Lord Walter Rothschild.

Over time, the Rothschild family's support was pivotal in strengthening Jewish settlement and the establishment of the State of Israel. Despite rumors that the family financially contributed to the construction of the United Nations headquarters, historical documents confirm that the land for the headquarters in New York was donated by businessman John D. Rockefeller Jr. Nevertheless, the Zionist movement benefited from the United Nations' role, especially the 1947 Partition Plan for Palestine, which paved the way for the creation of Israel.

In conclusion, the Rothschild family played a crucial role in realizing the Zionist dream, whether through substantial financial support or diplomatic influence. Their efforts paved the way for the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 and significantly reshaped the history of the region.

"No sugarcoating the Palestinian cause to make it palatable for Westerners. We don’t want peace—we want freedom. We don’t want to live side-by-side, we want the settlers to leave our land. There’s no conversation to be had. The demand is clear—we want to return to our home. We don’t negotiate with terror!sts. Long live the Palestinian revolution. ✌🏼🔻🇵🇸"

Interview with released prisoner and cancer patient Mohammad Aklouk, who had been detained since the start of the war. Mohammad describes the horrific conditions of his detainment, including the small, oppressive cell windows and the inability to see sunlight. The repression units frequently ordered prisoners to drop to the ground and brutally beat them. Mohammad emotionally recalls a fellow prisoner, Mohammad Al-Kahlout from Jabalia, who was struck in the head and died in his arms. Aklouk is one of 70 prisoners who were released on June 11th 2024 through the Zikim crossing west of Beit Lahia currently staying in Kamal Adwan Hospital.

Bisan has called for a global strike this week 1/21-1/28! Offer support in as many ways as you can, but don’t feel bad if you can’t do everything or do it differently than others. We all have a part to play.

As there's a genocide going on, we humans complicate things way beyond necessity. I don't want innocent people to die. As simple as that. Not everything is about politics.

"Death first to the vultures and scavengers"

[mushroomjar]

@handalapls is Mohammed Ayesh's blog. He's currently inside Gaza working tirelessly to verify fundraisers. Do I have to explain how exhausting that is? He's in constant danger every single day, and still goes out of his way to help others as best he can. He also has to care for his family, including his little brother Yasser, who is hard of hearing and has a cochlear implant

The implant requires charging, which is difficult due to the destruction and inavailability of power sources in many parts of Gaza, and it's also starting to malfunction, as they're unable to care for it properly, again, due to the living conditions they are in. Trying to repair the device or get a new one would be extremely expensive, and they cannot afford it. This means that Yasser is having a lot of trouble expressing himself, since he's also been unable to have the speech therapy sessions he used to have, which made communication easier for him

Mohammad's fundraiser is destined to collect money to repair Yasser's hearing device, fund his speech therapy in the future, and help his entire family rebuild their lives. In a post on his blog, he's expressed wanting to close the fundraiser before the end of the year, and he has yet to reach his goal. As of today, his campaign sits at £35,320/£60,000. Please share his campaign, and donate to it if you can. The smallest act can make a big difference for him and his family. Mohammed spends so much effort trying to help those around him, it's only fair we should do our best to help him too

As stated previously, Mohammed is a vetter, and a friend of el-shab-hussein

Full video

The sadness and despair in those eyes...

There are no innocent soldiers in iof, including the women. I've seen female soldiers laughing and dancing at the misery of Palestinian people and doing heinous acts just like their male counterparts.

keep boycotting. keep protesting. keep talking.

"As Columbia University’s administration threaten the mass suspension of hundreds this afternoon, students and faculty in the Gaza liberation encampment are remaining steadfast and collectively refusing to leave. In their own words, suspension for Gaza is the highest honor. May we all learn from their example." from Palestinian Youth Movement, 30/Apr/2024:

[gobcorend]

Enough for Me

Enough for me to die on her earth

Be buried in her

To melt and vanish into her soil

Then sprout forth as a flower

Played with by a child from my country.

Enough for me to remain

In my country's embrace

To be in her close as a handful of dust

A spring of grass

A flower.

-- Fadwa Tuqan

I hope, in these days, to share poems or parts of writings of these wonderful people and that this will also encourage you to read and share poetry or small writings - both of writers and your own -.

WRITING IS ALSO A FORM OF PROTEST!
