Nakba is the Arab term for catastrophe. It was an ethnic cleansing and dispossession of Palestinian land by Israel. And so last night, Pro Isreal protesters were running around threatening Palestinians with a second Nakba.
The Nakba (Arabic: النكبة an-Nakbah, lit. 'The Catastrophe') was the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Mandatory Palestine during the 1948 Palestine war through their violent displacement and dispossession of land, property, and belongings, along with the destruction of their society, culture, identity, political rights, and national aspirations. The term is also used to describe the ongoing persecution and displacement of Palestinians by Israel. As a whole, it covers the shattering of Palestinian society and the long-running rejection of the right of return for Palestinian refugees and their descendants.
The Nakba continues today and yet we see people consistently talking about from the river to the sea. Its time this one sided stuff ended.
