75 years since the Nakba
The Israeli expansionist colonial project succeeded after 1948 in throwing the Palestinian cause out of Palestine towards the Lebanese, Syrian and Jordanian embrace, through expulsion and displacement. Palestinian factions: Fatah, the Palestine Liberation Front, Youth of Revenge, Heroes of Return and others, in addition to the decision to form the Palestine Liberation Organization. The outbreak of the first intifada against the occupation inside Palestine in 1987, and its result was the gradual, multi-stage Oslo agreement in 1993.
The late Palestinian President Yasser Arafat succeeded, depending on the results of the first intifada and the Oslo agreement, in transferring the Palestinian title and most of its tools, from exile to the homeland, and the cause, its title, its struggle and its clash against the colony and its tools and apparatus became inside Palestine, which is a fundamental shift in the course of the cause, struggle and Palestinian action The displaced Palestinian communities have become levers of support as much as possible in the countries of their presence, after they and the refugee camps took the initiative in detonating the Palestinian revolution and fueling its continuation, and waging battles, in the face of the occupation forces from outside Palestine.
The annual Herzliya Security Conference recorded that the Zionist movement and its colony committed three follies in its history:
The first is that it kept approximately 150,000 Palestinian Arabs in 1948, in the Carmel, Galilee, Triangle, Negev, and mixed coastal cities. Today, they constitute one-fifth of the population of Palestine from the first occupation zones in 1948.
The second is that it kept the majority of the people of the West Bank, Jerusalem, and the Strip in 1967, and did not do what it did to the Palestinians in 1948, except for demolishing the three villages of Emmaus, Yalu, and Beit Nuba, and expelling their residents, while it demolished and removed more than 500 villages and displaced their residents in 1948.
The people of the three regions, the West Bank, Jerusalem, and the Strip, along with the people of the regions of 48, formed a unified, cohesive people whose stances, policies, stubbornness, and the surrounding circumstances prevented their expulsion and deportation.
As for the third folly, it is allowing the return of 350,000 Palestinians with the late President Yasser Arafat between 1994 and 1999, which led to the demographic consequences of the presence of a Palestinian people on the land of their homeland, more than 7 million people, who constitute the accumulated human opposite of the Israeli expansionist colonial project. And the title of his strategic failure, despite the colony's capabilities and superiority.
