Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We're currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.


Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

How many Palestinians did the Israelis kill and displace from the time that the UK allowed them free rein to push into the territory after WWI? How many homes have they seized or destroyed?

Between 1918 and 1947, Jewish immigrants bought land legally. There was no forced displacement.

UK allowed them free rein to push into the territory

The UK severely restricted Jewish immigration into the mandate after the Arab revolt from 1939. Tens of thousands of Jewish refugees from the Holocaust were blocked from entering. They were deported and interned in camps on Cyprus.

displaced, killed

Around 700,000 Palestinians fled in 1947/48, only a minority of those were displaced by force. Many fled before the war really started.

Around 200,000 fled in 1967.

In 1947/48, tens of thousands of Jews were expelled from the West Bank and Jerusalem. Among them were the oldest continued Jewish inhabitants of the land.

After 1948 Muslim and Arab states expelled 800,000 Jews, many of which fled to Israel.

The number of overall deaths including Arabs and Jews was in the low tenthousands from 1918 to 2022.

More than tenthousand Palestinians were killed by Jordan during Black September. At least 5000 died during the civil war in Syria.

October 7th was by far the deadliest day of the whole conflict. Never before or after have that many people died in one day.

More numbers over the whole timeline can be found here. They don’t differentiate between Palestinians and other Arabs, combatants and civilians.

Stop spreading misinfo about the Nakba. Groups like Betar committed plenty of acts of violence and anti-Arab terrorism which forced many Palestinians to flee. Like Zionists like you can just as shitty views and rhetoric as a lot of antizionists.

700,000 Palestinians fled in 1947/48

They just did that. No reason.

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

Most fled because war was imminent. Some were forcibly displaced, as I said before.

Arab leaders inside Palestine and outside had called for Palestinians to evacuate and return after the war was won and the Jews were thrown into the sea.

The situation and history in Haifa gives you an idea of the complexities and chaos of the situation.

People fleeing from war happens in all wars. It’s usually the more well off that leave first.

Where do the 20% of non Jewish citizens of Israel come from? They are those who stayed and their descendants.

It'd be a lot easier to refer to the Nakba, unless you're deliberately avoiding that reference.

Why would they be factual when the point is to obscure what's happening

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Israel destroyed 500 villages , palestinians was forced to leave due to the huge level of destruction and was never allowed to come back
