  1. "To counter this insidious attempt at #Nakba memoricide by U.S. politicians and others, it is instructive to review the archives of U.S. diplomats stationed in #Palestine and surrounding Arab countries who witnessed the Nakba unfold and reported back to the #StateDepartment on the magnitude and gravity of #Israel’s dispossession of Palestine’s indigenous inhabitants." - #JoshRuebner

  2. "The US actually understood quite early on that the partition plan as proposed by #UNSCOP was not workable and not feasible [...] The US did more than think about going back on partition. In March 1948 [...] the US actually proposed in the Security Council that an international trusteeship be appointed for #Palestine instead of partition." - #JoshRuebner
