Assertions
"A Land Without a People for a People Without a Land"
This early Zionist slogan implied that Palestine was an empty, barren desert waiting to be populated by Jews. Ottoman census data and historical records prove this was fiction: Palestine was a thriving, populated, and modernizing agrarian Arab society with vibrant urban trade centers before the arrival of Zionism.
The 1948 Exodus of about 700,000 Palestinians from Israel was not because of neighboring Arab countries.
In his 1989 book The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem, 1947–1948, Israeli historian Benny Morris reveals that the mass exodus was largely due to deliberate expulsions and violence by forces loyal to Israel, rather than the result of orders by Arab commanders, as had often been historically claimed.
David vs. Goliath Military Myth
Israel has portrayed the 1948 war as a miraculous victory of a tiny, poorly armed Jewish population against a massive, overwhelming monolith of five invading Arab armies. The New Historians proved that while Israel was in a precarious position early on, they quickly held a distinct advantage. The IDF was better organized, possessed more advanced weaponry (largely due to arms deals with Czechoslovakia), and actually outnumbered the combined, poorly coordinated Arab forces on the battlefields for most of the war
The attack on the USS Liberty was deliberate
The sheer volume of witness testimony, published material, the attrocities Israel was committing in the Sinai Peninsula, analysis by those in the Johnson Administration, the threats to the surviving crew to stay silent, the unwillingness of Congress to investigate the attack, and Occam's razor make it clear that the attack on the USS Liberty by Israeli military forces was deliberate.
Israel claimed that food was not reaching Gaza and people were starving because Hamas was stealing it. It is a bogus claim.
Israel was not allowing the necessary number of trucks in to Gaza. The trucks that were allowed in could only use a few food distribution points - far fewer than when UNRWA was distributing food. Many people had to travel great distances to get food, and they ran the risk of getting shot by the IDF.
Benjamin Netanyahu has been warning that Iran is "close to developing a nuclear weapon" for decades
Benjamin Netanyahu has been warning about Iran being weeks or months away from developing a nuclear weapon for years. In fact, the Iranians were not developing a nuclear weapon. They signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in 1968 and ratified it in 1970. They also agreed to inspections.
But after the attack by Israel and the United States in 2026, they now want to withdraw from the NPT, since it has proven to be of no benefit.
No other country has ever influenced U.S. politics so completely.
Approximately 94% of U.S. Congress members have received financial support from pro-Israel lobbying groups and political action committees (PACs) over the course of their careers or recent election cycles. When U.S. politicians act against Israel's interests, they are punished in significant ways, such as being primaried in their next election.
Israel could have acquired land for expansion through peaceful means.
The 1967 Six Day War resulted in the construction of 18 civilian settlements in the occupied Sinai Peninsula. Those settlements had to be dismantled in 1982 as part of the 1979 Egypt–Israel Peace Treaty. Israel could have purchased land in the Sinai from Egypt instead of taking the land by force. Even at top dollar, it would have been far less expensive than the tens of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars spent fueling the Israeli war machine.
Israel committed war crimes in the Sinai during the 1967 Six Day War
These crimes are documented in audio recordings made by IDF soldiers who took part in the Six Day War. Watch the video Six-Day War: Censored Voices: A film by Mor Loushy
