Palestine..homeland, land and people!!

The late poet Mahmoud Darwish was right when he said (Palestine was... it became called Palestine) while referring to the homeland of pride and the land of glory in which a historic people live who do not know despair or boredom and who cling to a dignified life, reaching the point of achieving all their dreams and goals.


Palestine has never been just a TV series or a passing idea. It is the historical land of our people, and a free and proud state, with historical and geographical roots extending across the map of our great Arab homeland.


We present this introduction in response to the statements of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who insists on continuing the aggression on the Gaza Strip and not withdrawing from the Rafah crossing and the Philadelphi corridor and imposing a strangling cordon on the Netzarim corridor, and using a map through which he annexes the West Bank to the occupying state, in another dangerous step of the steps of violating international legitimacy and international agreements, in order to consolidate the occupation and continue annexation and settlement in the West Bank and expand the scope of aggression, and continue the war of extermination and massacres in the Gaza Strip, and prepare for a new attack on the northern Gaza Strip under the pretext of the return of Hamas activists and the restoration of their military strength, and exaggerate the situation in the West Bank, by spreading lies that say that Iran has succeeded in financing the Palestinian resistance with weapons and military ammunition, and spreading illogical hypotheses that the resistance is preparing for a major storming of one of the settlements in the West Bank, similar to October 7 in Gaza.


These statements and Netanyahu's map reveal the premeditated Israeli intentions against our Palestinian people, which come as a continuation of the statements of a large number of ministers, who are pursuing a confused policy in all political and military fields, which is expressed in very harsh violations against our Palestinian people, with clear support from the American administration, which bears responsibility for this aggression that is unprecedented in history.


What the Palestinians are doing is considered a human miracle. They are the owners of the only homeland that will not be lost, and will remain engraved in human memory despite the ongoing occupation for more than 76 years, after the Arab regimes were lost, confused, scattered, and their armies were defeated. Palestine will remain the great dream for the people to return to their land and heritage, despite being exposed to all kinds of cruelty that no other people in the world has known.


The targeted Palestinian people will not tire and will continue to repeat (I am from Gaza, the cradle of pride) (And oh pulse of the West Bank, do not rest, I declare it a revolution) and the people of Jenin and Tulkarm will continue to produce olive oil, and Khalil al-Rahman will continue to repeat (Honey is in the grapes of Khalil)... Palestine will remain alive and will increase in life and activity from its first platform, the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is considered the belief and worship of the Palestinians, to preserve their pride and patience, as they confront all of Israel’s attempts to falsify and distort history, to thwart it and confirm that Palestine was and will remain Palestine.
