Pubblichiamo, così come ci è stata inviata da Sheila Mires, una pagina con una domanda e alcuni fatti . E' in inglese, ma è comprensibile, crediamo, da tutti. L'invito ai lettori è quello di inviare questa pagina ai direttori dei giornali che abitualmente leggono, per chiedere se hanno mai fatto una riflessione simile.
Some people say that Arabs are
"Native Palestinians", while Jews are "Invaders" and "Settlers".
Then, I read the biographies of
Israeli and Palestinian political leaders,
and I became confused.
Who of Israeli or Palestinian leaders
were born in Palestine?
Born 21 October 1949 in Tel Aviv.
EHUD BARAK,
Born 12 February 1942 in Mishmar HaSharon,
British Mandate of Palestine
ARIEL SHARON,
Born 26 February 1928 in Kfar Malal,
British Mandate of Palestine
EHUD OLMERT,
Born 30 September 1945 in Binyamina-Giv'at Ada,
British Mandate of Palestine.
Born 1 March 1922 in Jerusalem,
British Mandate of Palestine.
ITZHAK NAVON,
Israeli President in 1977-1982. Born 9 April 1921 in Jerusalem, British Mandate of Palestine.
EZER WEIZMAN,
Israeli President in 1993-2000. Born 15 June 1924 in Tel Aviv, British Mandate of Palestine.
ARAB “PALESTINIAN” LEADERS:
YASSER ARAFAT,
Born 24 August 1929 in Cairo, Egypt
Born April 28, 1955, in Jordan. He has the Jordanian citizenship.
FAISAL ABDEL QADER AL-HUSSEINI,
Born in1948 in Bagdad, Iraq.
SARI NUSSEIBEH,
Born in 1949 in Damascus, Syria.
Born in 1945, in Cairo, Egypt.
So, Israeli leaders, who were born in Palestine,
are “Settlers or Invaders”.
While Palestinian Arab leaders who were born
in Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Tunisia
are “Native Palestinians”???
