Nada Tarek - May 2021

 

WHAT HAPPENED?

In that month, May 2021, the holy month of Ramadan, floods of blood started to run into the streets of Sheikh Jarrah, East Jerusalem, Palestine again and again.

 

The unstoppable Palestinian-Israeli bloody attacks took place this time with a usual heart-breaking scenes, Israeli airstrikes on Gaza Strip, protests and Palestinians killed and injured.

 

The tension flooded on May 6, when Palestinians protested in Jerusalem as the hearing over the decision of the Israeli Supreme Court on expelling six Palestinian families from Sheikh Jarrah, East Jerusalem had been postponed for the third time.

 

 

Unfortunately, it escalated into violent confrontations between the Israeli army and the Palestinian protesters. 

 

On May 7, Israeli forces moved angrily into the al-Aqsa Mosque and started using tear gas, rubber bullets and stun grenades against Palestinians.

Finally, Egypt was able to get into the situation and hold the ceasefire in addition to open the Rafah border crossing to allow the passage of Palestininas who need medical treatment in Sinai Hospitals which are equipped to receive them.

 

Not only this, but also 1200 doctors were sent to aid injured Palestines, and USD 500 Millions were allocated by Egypt for the reconstruction of Gaza.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT HISTORY?

 

Palestine is one of the oldest countries in the world. It is the place where Judaism, Christianity and Islam were born and people lived fine on this land in the 1800s when it was ruled by the Ottoman Empire.

At that time Zionism started to appear and aspire Jews. 

 

 

After World War One, Palestine was colonized by the United Kingdom but still the name of the land was Palestine.

However, a promise for a zionist state was made and more and more Jews arrived seeking refuge. Unfortunately, their plan to steal the land was clear at that time.

 

 

It has been years since the 1948 Palestine occupation with the same heart-breaking scenes everyday of Palestinians killed at the hands of the Israeli forces.

Thousands of Palestinians fled their homes to survive, they had no right to return, no right to fight and no right to live safely although the land was still and will always be called PALESTINE.
