Selon #VirginiaWoolf, beaucoup de mémoires sont des échecs parce qu’ils « laissent de côté la personne à qui les choses sont arrivées » Récit d'un petit garçon impressionnable et d'un l’adolescent troublé décrit par un universitaire d’âge mûr dont l'expérience personnelle illustre et éclaire une histoire beaucoup plus vaste, celle de l’exode juif d’#Irak après la création de l’État d’Israël en #nakba1948

#Nakba1948 / The birth of an "Hasbrah Nation” ...

[...] Ben-Gurion probably never heard the word “Nakba,” but early on, at the end of the 1950s, Israel’s first prime minister grasped the importance of the historical narrative. Just as #Zionism had forged a new narrative for the Jewish people within a few decades, he understood that the other nation that had resided in the country before the advent of Zionism would also strive to formulate a narrative of its own. For the Palestinians, the national narrative grew to revolve around the Nakba, the calamity that befell them following Israel’s establishment in 1948, when about 700,000 Palestinians became refugees.

Historian Shay Hazkani (today an associate Professor of History at the University of Maryland) uncovered in this early publication a concerted effort orchestrated by Israel's first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, to manipulate the historical narrative surrounding the 1948 Palestinian exodus/explosion.

Seeking to secure international sympathy for the Jewish state (which declared independence unilaterally after a failed attempt to implement the partition resolution and while the UN were busy formulation a trustsheep, suggested by the U.S.), Ben-Gurion instructed Israeli historians to produce research that would obscure the expulsion of Palestinians, instead promoting the narrative that they fled their homes voluntarily.

Hazkani argues that this manipulation was a calculated attempt to rewrite history, downplaying Israel's role in the Palestinian #Nakba and swaying global opinion in favor of the newly established nation.
