    You have pivoted away from whether accepting a #TwoStateSolution proposed by #UN for #BritishIndia as well as for #BritishMandate in #Palestine was better for all.

    #Hindutva is a different monster.

  10. #Palestine / From British Mandate to Military Rule: A documentary exposes Israel's dark history, which drew comparisons to Nazi Germany

    Danel Elpeleg's award-winning documentary, "The Governor," exposes Israel's little-known history of military rule over its Palestinian citizens from 1948 to 1968 (technically 1966). The film, based on interviews with Elpeleg's grandfather, a military governor, reveals the regime's pervasive control over every aspect of Palestinian life, including curfews, restrictions on movement, and the arbitrary power of life and death wielded by the governors.

    This authority stemmed from the British Mandate's Defense Emergency Regulations (DER), initially enacted to suppress both Jewish and Arab resistance. Ironically, pre-state Zionists decried these regulations, with jurist Yaakov Shimshon Shapira even comparing them to Nazi laws [Source: Tom Segev, "1949: The First Israelis"].

    Despite this initial opposition, the new Israeli state adopted the DER wholesale for its Arab population, a legacy that continues to impact Palestinian citizens today, with many still fearing reprisal for speaking out, while the majority of Israeli Jews remain unaware of this dark chapter in their nation's history, a silence perpetuated by censorship, even within the #IDF.

    In 1947, they rejected freedom — a #UN #TwoStateSolution for an INDEPENDENT #Palestine, separate from #Israel

    For 450 years prior to that, they were ok being under #TurkishYoke or #BritishMandate, but when actual freedom arrived, they spat on it.
