That's not true at all. Nakba was an ethnic cleansing of over 750,000 Palestinians. Voluntary Jewish immigration at behest of Zionist urging to Israel is not the same thing.
- tptacek 3y agoNo. There was little voluntary about the immigration we're discussing. Jewish people were chased out of Tunisia, Yemen, Morocco, and Iraq by lead-pipe mobs. You can go to Yemen today (well, you could before the Houthi takeover) and buy the silversmithing the fleeing Jewish people left behind in open-air markets.
- bluefishinit 3y agoZionists did that and generally destabilized the entire region: https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/iraq-jews-attacks-zionist-role-confirmed-operative-police-report https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/iraq-jews-attacks-zionist...
- tptacek 3y agoA pattern that continued through their controlled demolition of the World Trade Towers, I'm sure. Like every other country in the 1950s, Israel did a bunch of crazy shit. But attempting to attribute significant amounts of Jewish emigration from MENA countries to Zionist operations is risible. Pogroms against Jewish enclaves are well documented. I edited this comment, adding the second paragraph, while its reply was being posted. Sorry about that.
- bluefishinit 3y agoI don't follow you. Osama Bin Laden said that the bombing of the WTC was in retaliation for Israel bombing Beirut: > God knows it did not cross our minds to attack the towers but after the situation became unbearable and we witnessed the injustice and tyranny of the American-Israeli alliance against our people in Palestine and Lebanon, I thought about it. And the events that affected me directly were that of 1982 and the events that followed - when America allowed the Israelis to invade Lebanon, helped by the US sixth fleet. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/oct/30/alqaida.september11 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/oct/30/alqaida.septem...

- smoothjazz 3y agoThey didn't "flee", there was a coordinated Zionist effort to move them to Israel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Magic_Carpet_(Yemen) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Magic_Carpet_(Yemen) And the anti-Zionist riots were in response to the illegal occupation of Palestinian land: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1947_anti-Jewish_riots_in_Aden https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1947_anti-Jewish_riots_in_Aden None of this was even remotely on the scale of Nakba.
- tptacek 3y agoFrom the thread below, you appear to believe Israel also coordinated the destruction of the World Trade Center towers, so I think our premises are probably too far apart to discuss anything productively.

- smoothjazz 3y agoI do not believe that (although I could see how you would read it like that). I meant your insinuation that the well documented Zionist false flag was the equivalent of 9/11 conspiracy theories, but you admit that Israel did do the false flag.
- tptacek 3y agoI have no idea what you're talking about, sorry.
