Palestine Resistance Movement and the Jews
Serious discussions with progressive Jews in Europe and America
helped also foster a new image for the Jew at large, the Jew as
Zionist and the Jew as a Palestinian citizen: a human image.
No supermen, monsters or pigmies, but people who were perse-
cuted by European racist Nazis and then manipulated by Euro-
pean racist Zionists into Palestine and the vacation of its
people.
“Escalation of the revolution will have its consequences. Ob-
viously, it is going to harden some Zionist Jews against the Pales-
tinians, especially the oligarchy that stands to lose in a democratic,
open Palestine. But escalation will have its shock effect. It will
bring the realization that an exclusionist Israel can be a very
insecure place indeed, and that it cannot last.”
(19 January, 1970) “All the Jews, Moslems and Christians
living in Palestine or forcibly exiled from it will have the right
to Palestinian citizenship. This guarantees the right of all exiled
Palestinians to return to their land whether they have been born
in Palestine or in exile and regardless of their present nation-
ality.
“Equally, this means that all Jewish Palestinians—at the present
Israelis—have the same right, provided of course that they reject
Zionist racist chauvinism and fully accept to live as Palestinians
in the New Palestine. The revolution therefore rejects the sup-
position that only Jews who lived in Palestine prior to 1948 or
prior to 1914 and their descendents are acceptable.
‘Jews or non-Jews for that matter would have the right to practise
their religion and develop culturally and linguistically as a
group, beside their individual political and cultural participation.
It is quite logical for example to have both Arabic and Hebrew
as official languages taught in governmental schools to all Pales-
tinians, Jews or non-Jews.”
