In 1964, the advertising firm of Doyle Dane Bernbach came up with a slogan for Levy’s Rye Bread that appeared everywhere on the New York Subway system: “You don’t have to be Jewish to love Levy’s.” And above those words were photographs of an Irish cop, a Chinese man, a black boy, an Italo-American cook, an American Indian, and many others equally, and obviously, non-Jewish, holding up a piece of Levy’s rye just before taking a bite. The campaign was a smashing success.
Three months ago, at a meeting of the World Jewish Congress, the head of the Springer media empire in Germany, Mathias Döpfner, addressed the crowd in a way that may remind us of that slogan used for Levy’s rye, but about a much more significant matter. What Mathias Döpfner said is worth recalling, and can be found here: “German media chief declares ‘I am a Zionist’ at World Jewish Congress in Geneva,” Jerusalem Post, May 11, 2026:
A leading German media executive declared Monday that he was “a goy” (non-Jew) and “a Zionist,” telling the World Jewish Congress in Geneva that the free world must confront antisemitism, anti-Zionism, and online radicalization before they undermine Western democracy itself.
Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Axel Springer, the owner of Politico and Business Insider, delivered the remarks at a WJC (World Jewish Congress) Governing Board gathering marking 90 years since the organization was founded in Geneva in 1936.
“I never want to give or hear another ‘Never Again’ speech,” Döpfner said, according to a text of his remarks. “‘Never Again’ has become lip service.”
He said the phrase had become “a moral declaration of intent without consequences,” arguing that the global reaction after the October 7 massacre showed that Western societies had failed to act on the lessons they claim to uphold.
Döpfner said antisemitism had entered a new stage after October 7, spreading across universities, cultural institutions, social media platforms, and city streets….
He described Israel as “a bridgehead of Western values in the Middle East” and said Zionism was “the logical consequence of history.”
“A people’s right to live in safety. The right to defend oneself. The right not to be dependent on the mercy of others again,” he said. “Anyone who questions these rights is not only questioning Israel, but the principles upon which free societies are founded.”…
“If the West, that is, the free world, does not defeat antisemitism, it will destroy itself,” he said.
He closed with a call for solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people.
“We all shall be Zionists,” Döpfner said.
Or rather, “we all should be Zionists.” We should all be Zionists because even the smallest of peoples deserves a state of their own. We should all be Zionists because the centuries of persecution of the Jews, including the worst crime in human history, that occurred not so long ago, entitles the Jewish people to the kind of protection that only a state of their own provides.
We should all be Zionists because the Jews of Israel are living on the land where Jews have lived for 3500 years, the place where Jewish history, and only Jewish history, was made. We should all be Zionists because the epidemic of antisemitism, that shows no signs of stopping, makes clear that a strong Jewish state is even more necessary today for the survival of the Jews. We should all be Zionists because the Jews did indeed “make the desert bloom.” We should all be Zionists because a malevolent enemy, in thrall to a fanatic faith, is intent not just on defeating the Zionist state, but on killing every last Jew in that state.
We should all be Zionists because no conscience, and hence no consciousness, can be expected to subsist in a world where a second Holocaust is committed. We should all be Zionists because Israel has not known a moment’s true peace since May 14, 1948, when the Jewish state declared its independence. We should all be Zionists because the Jews of Israel have been forced to fight four major wars and many smaller ones for their survival, and have managed, though outmanned and initially outgunned, to defeat all those who would destroy it. We should all be Zionists because the Jews of Israel are now again fighting a multi-front war, and in effect, fighting that war not just for their own survival, but for the survival of the entire Western world, though few in that world yet realize that.
You don’t have to be Jewish to love Israel.

from UNRWA:
WHO ARE PALESTINE REFUGEES?
Palestine refugees are defined as
“persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict.”
UNRWA services are available to all those living in its area of operations who meet this definition, who are registered with the Agency and who need assistance.
The descendants of Palestine refugee males, including adopted children, are also eligible for registration. When the Agency began operations in 1950, it was responding to the needs of about 750,000 Palestine refugees. Today, some 5.9 million Palestine refugees are eligible for UNRWA services.

Forbidden type of adoption
Permissible type of adoption
To whom should the adopted child be given?
Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah:
Forbidden type of adoption
Adoption in Islam of children is of two types, forbidden and not forbidden.
The forbidden type means adopting a child in the sense that the child is considered to be the child of the adopting parent and subject to the rulings on children . This is not permitted. Allah nullified it in the Quran when He said (interpretation of the meaning):
“…nor has He made your adopted sons your real sons…” [al-Ahzab 33:4]
Permissible type of adoption
The kind which is prescribed and may be mustahabb means being kind towards the child and giving him a righteous religious upbringing and sound direction, teaching him that which will benefit him in this world and the next.
To whom should the adopted child be given?
But it is not permitted to hand a child over except to one who is known to be trustworthy, religiously-committed and of good character, who will take care of the child’s interests. He should also be a local resident, so that he will not take the child away to a country where his presence may be a cause for his religious commitment being lost in the future.
If these conditions are met in the case of both the child and the adopting parent, then it is OK to hand over a foundling whose parentage is not known. May Allah preserve you.
And Allah knows best.

your question
“Were a population that had been native to Palestine for over 1200 years denied their right to become a nation after the breakup of the Turkish Empire in 1918?”
is based on a lie and propaganda
see UNRWA definition of “Palestinian refugee”
and encyclopedia Britannica 1911 edition BEFORE WWl, while what you call “Palestine” was still part of the Ottoman Empire.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Your counter-question to them should be: “Why was there never a sultanate/emirate of “Palestine” during the times it was under mohammedan rule, either by the Turks or by the Arabs?”
During Arab rule, that entire region was governed from Damascus: do your anti-Israel interlocutors support a “Greater Syria”? During Turkish rule too, Galilee was a part of the vilayet of Beirut, while Jerusalem was originally under the vilayet of Syria but later separated to become the mutasarrifate of Jerusalem. Even that wasn’t quite a “Palestinian” state
The term “Palestine”, aside from its Roman usage, was first used in 1920 after WWI when the Brits carved it up, and the term “Palestinian” was used to exclusively refer to Jews, not Arabs. Arabs were just called “Arabs”: check out any publication before 1965, and that’s what you’ll find. Even in pre 1967, Judea and Samaria were Jordanian occupied territories, while Gaza was an integral part of Egypt
“Palestinian” was a branding exercise by the Soviets in 1964 to re-cast the narrative of an Israeli David confronting the pan-Arab Goliath, to swap the roles so that Israel became Goliath. But the “Palestinian” entity that was created to replace the Arab one never historically existed

https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/6969635/jewish/What-Does-Goy-Mean.htm
The word goy (גוי) is Hebrew for “nation.”
In contemporary parlance, it refers to non-Jews, who are members of a nation other than ours.
In its original context, however, it could refer to any nation—including the Jewish nation, whom G‑d refers to as goy kadosh, a “holy nation.”1
and more
In the Bible:
A page from Elia Levita’s Yiddish-Hebrew-Latin-German dictionary (16th century) including the word goy (גוי), translated to Latin as ethnicus, meaning heathen or pagan.[16]
The word goy means “nation” in Biblical Hebrew.[17][18] In the Torah, goy and its variants appear 560 times in reference to both the Israelites and the non-Israelite nations.[19]
The first recorded usage of goyim occurs in Genesis 10:5 and applies to non-Israelite nations. The first mention of goy in relation to the Israelites comes in Genesis 12:2, when God promises Abraham that his descendants will form a goy gadol (“great nation”).[20]
There are two exceptions where a “Kingdom of Goyim” is mentioned. One is in Genesis 14:1, where it states that the “King of Goyim” was Tidal. Bible commentaries suggest that the term may refer to Gutium. The other is in Joshua 12:23, where a “King of Goyim in Gilgal” is included in the list of kings slain by Joshua. In all other cases the meaning of goyim is ‘nations.'[21][6]
In Exodus 19:6, the Israelites are referred to as a goy kadosh, a “holy nation”.[17][22] One of the more poetic descriptions of the chosen people in the Hebrew Bible, and popular among Jewish scholars is goy ehad b’aretz, or “a unique nation upon the earth” (2 Samuel 7:23 and 1 Chronicles 17:21)[23]
ploome says
from Britannica 1911, Palestine:
Population.—The inhabitants of Palestine are composed of a large number of elements, differing widely in ethnological affinities, language and religion. It may be interesting to mention, as an illustration of their heterogeneousness, that early in the 20th century a list of no less than fifty languages, spoken in Jerusalem as vernaculars, was there drawn up by a party of men whose various official positions enabled them to possess accurate information on the subject.[2] It is therefore no easy task to write concisely and at the same time with sufficient fullness on the ethnology of Palestine.
There are two classes into which the population of Palestine can be divided—the nomadic and the sedentary. The former is especially characteristic of Eastern Palestine, though Western Palestine also contains its full share. The pure Arab origin of the Bedouins is recognized in common conversation in the country, the word “Arab” being almost restricted to denote these wanderers, and seldom applied to the dwellers in towns and villages. It should be mentioned that there is another, entirely independent, nomad race, the despised Nowar, who correspond to the gipsies or tinkers of European countries. These people live under the poorest conditions, by doing smith’s work; they speak among themselves a Romani dialect, much contaminated with Arabic in its vocabulary.
The sedentary population of the country villages—the fellahin, or agriculturists—is, on the whole, comparatively unmixed; but traces of various intrusive strains assert themselves. It is by no means unreasonable to suppose that there is a fundamental Canaanite element in this population: the “hewers of wood and drawers of water” often remain undisturbed through successive occupations of a land; and there is a remarkable correspondence of type between many of the modern fellahin and skeletons of ancient inhabitants which have been recovered in the course of excavation. New elements no doubt came in under the Assyrian, Persian and Roman dominations, and in more recent times there has been much contamination. The spread of Islam introduced a very considerable Neo-Arabian infusion. Those from southern Arabia were known as the Yaman tribe, those from northern Arabia the Kais (Qais). These two divisions absorbed the previous peasant population, and still nominally exist; down to the middle of the 19th century they were a fruitful source of quarrels and of bloodshed. The two great clans were further subdivided into families, but these minor divisions are also being gradually broken down. In the 19th century the short-lived Egyptian government introduced into the population an element from that country which still persists in the villages. These newcomers have not been completely assimilated with the villagers among whom they have found a home; the latter despise them, and discourage intermarriage.
Some of the larger villages—notably Bethlehem—which have always been leavened by Christianity, and with the development of industry have become comparatively prosperous, show tangible results of these happier circumstances in a higher standard of physique among the men and of personal appearance among the women. It is not uncommon in popular writings to attribute this superiority to a crusader strain—a theory which no one can possibly countenance who knows what miserable degenerates the half-breed descendants of the crusaders rapidly became, as a result of their immoral life and their ignorance of the sanitary precautions necessary in a trying climate.
The population of the larger towns is of a much more complex nature. In each there is primarily a large Arab element, consisting for the greater part of members of important and wealthy families. Thus, in Jerusalem, much of the local influence is in the hands of the families of El-Khalidi, El-Husseini and one or two others, who derive their descent from the heroes of the early days of Islam. The Turkish element is small, consisting exclusively of officials sent individually from Constantinople. There are very large contingents from the Mediterranean countries, especially Armenia, Greece and Italy, principally engaged in trade. The extraordinary development of Jewish colonization has since 1870 effected a revolution in the balance of population in some parts of the country, notably in Jerusalem. There are few residents in the country from the more eastern parts of Asia—if we except the Turkoman settlements in the Jaulan, a number of Persians, and a fairly large Afghan colony that since 1905 has established itself in Jaffa. The Mutāwileh (Motawila), who form the majority of the inhabitants of the villages north-west of Galilee, are probably long-settled immigrants from Persia. Some tribes of Kurds live in tents and huts near Lake Huleh. If the inmates of the countless monastic establishments be excluded, comparatively few from northern or western Europe will remain: the German “Templar” colonies being perhaps the most important. There must also be mentioned a Bosnian colony established at Caesarea Palestina, and the Circassian settlements placed in certain centres of Eastern Palestine by the Turkish government in order to keep a restraint on the Bedouin: the latter are also found in Galilee. There was formerly a large Sudanese and Algerian element in the population of some of the large towns, but these have been much reduced in numbers since the beginning of the 20th century: the Algerians however still maintain themselves in parts of Galilee.
The most interesting of all the non-Arab communities in the country, however, is without doubt the Samaritan sect in Nablus (Shechem); a gradually disappearing body, which has maintained an independent existence from the time when they were first settled by the Assyrians to occupy the land left waste by the captivity of the kingdom of Israel.
The total population of the country is roughly estimated at 650,000, but no authentic official census exists from which satisfactory information on this point is obtainable. Some two-thirds of this number are Moslems, the rest Christians of various sects, and Jews. The largest town in Palestine is Jerusalem, estimated to contain a population of about 60,000. The other towns of above 10,000 inhabitants are Jaffa (45,000), Gaza (35,000), Safed (30,000), Nablus (25,000), Kerak (20,000), Hebron (18,500), Es-Salt (15,000), Acre (11,000), Nazareth (11,000).
The above remarks apply to the permanent population. They would be incomplete without a passing word on the non-permanent elements which at certain seasons of the year are in the principal centres the most conspicuous. Especially in winter and early spring crowds of European and American tourists, Russian pilgrims and Bokharan devotees jostle one another in the streets in picturesque incongruity.
Political Divisions.—
Under the Ottoman jurisdiction Palestine has no independent existence. West of the Jordan, and to about half-way between Nablus and Jerusalem, is the southern portion of the vilayet or province of Beirut. South of this point is the sanjak[3] of Jerusalem, to which Nazareth with its immediate neighbourhood is added, so as to bring all the principal “Holy Places” under one jurisdiction. East of the Jordan the country forms part of the large vilayet of Syria, whose centre is at Damascus.
Hugh Fitzgerald says
Here’s what I think:
1. Judea and Samaria are more important in Jewish history than any other part of Israel save Jerusalem. Jews have lived continuously in Judea and Samaria for the past 3500 years, albeit often in small numbers. The only time the area was without any Jews was between 1949 and 1967, when the Jordanians expelled all of its Jewish inhabitants.
2. If, in order to obtain that will-o;-the-wisp a “two-state solution,” Israel were to be squeezed back within the 1949 Armistice Lines (often called, meretriciously and inaccurately,, the “1967 borders”) it would then be stripped of even the tiniest strategic depth, which it needs to buy time to call up its largely citizen army in case of Arab attack.. Instead the Jewish state would be lpft hoplessly vulnerable, with a nine-mile-wide waist from Qalqilya to the sea. Israel could then be cut in half by an invader force from the east within a matter of hours,, as the British military historian B. H. Liddell Hart long ago pointed out.
3. There may have been a handful of Muslims Arabs who arrived “1200 years” ago but rhere were also Jews, Turks, Christians, and so on, That small population of Muslim Arabs began to grow in the Land of Israel late in he 19th century, and the boost to that population came in the 20th century tas a result of economic activity by the Zionist pioneers..
4. Much of the land in what became the Palestine Mandate was waste or state land (that is, was owned by the Ottomans). The Arabs were mostly peasants working lands owned by absentee landlords in Amman and Constantinople.
5. The League of Nations, formed by those nations that had defeated the Ottomans and caused the breakup of the Ottoman Empire, created various mandates to bring about the independence of states that had formerly been part of the Ottoman domains. The League created several mandates — Iraq, Lebanon/Syria — for the Arabs, and one mandate — the Mandate for Palestine — for the Jews. Originally that state was to include historic Palestine on both sides of the Jordan river. But The Zionists were betrayed by the British, who in 1921m at the Cairo Conference, decided to seal off all of eastern Palestine, constituting 78% of the original territory to be included in Mandatory Palestine, to Jewish immigration. The Jews who opposed this severing of so much territory from the Mandate”were called the Revisionists, led by the remarkable writer, journalist, and orator Zev Jabotinsky. They tried to keep tgat territory =in the Mandate, but their objections were dismissed..The British performed this ghastly surgery in order to turn all the land east of the Jordan into the Emirate of Transjordan, with the Hashemite King Abdullah as its ruler. This was done to prevent Abdullah from marching on Syria, to provide himself with the throne he thought he deserve. After all ,his younger brother Feisal had been put by the British on the throne of Iraq, and Abdullah thought he deserved as much. Had he marched on Damascus, that would have caused problems for the British with the French, who held the Mandate for Syria and Lebanon).
6. The Palestinian Arabs are not a separate “people” but, rather, part of the much larger Arab people. They were not called “Palestinians” until the mid0-960s, a renaming that was made at the suggestion of the KGB. The effect was to present the conflict as one “between two tiny peoples, each struggling for its homeland” or, better stil, to present the Muslim war on Israel, which has no end, as only an attempt by the “Palestinian people” to get back the “land that was stolen from them.”
7. In 1970, the Palestinian Arab Zuheir Mohsen told the journalist James Dorsey in an interview for the Dutch newspaper Trouw that “The Palestinian people does not exist … There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are all part of one nation. It is only for political reasons that we carefully underline our Palestinian identity, because it is in the interest of the Arabs to encourage a separate Palestinian identity in contrast to Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity is there only for tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new expedient to continue the fight against Zionism and for Arab unity.”
8. There are already 22 Arab states in existence.The Arab people have been more richly endowed with states than any other people on earth, not to mention the unmerited trillions of dollars in oil wealth that several of them possess. It does not seem to me acceptable that the one very tiny Jewish state should be forced to yield the most historic part of the Land of Israel and to endure a permanent condition of maximum peril in order to create a 23rd Arab state.

.Did antisemitism mislead and conceal from the world’s malaria community the first start anywhere of a successful national malaria elimination campaign?
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11537171/
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8415063/
The Malaria Lesson from Palestine 100 years ago
In 1919, Dr. Manson-Bahr, a future director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, described Palestine as one of the most highly malarious countries in the world [3]. He knew the conditions in Palestine as in 1918, in the final months of WW1, whilst an officer in the Royal Army Medical Corps with the British Army in Palestine, he had witnessed a force of 40,500 men lose 20,427 men in 9 weeks due to malaria. Of the 100,000 Turkish prisoners-of-war taken after their defeat in 1918 by the British Army in Palestine, 20 per cent had to be hospitalised immediately, suffering from malaria. After the defeat of the Turkish Army, Palestine was administered by the British Mandate, in effect a colony-like structure.
It is usually not appreciated that if malaria had not been eliminated in Palestine, it is doubtful that Israel could ever have come into existence. In 1922, almost 100 years ago, the British Mandate conducted a Census in Palestine disclosing a total population of 757,182, including all the military. Palestine was then either thinly populated or uninhabitable in many areas. The area underwent a huge transformation, with the population in 2020 for the same area increasing to approximately 13,5 million – an increase of almost 18 times the 1922 level.
Dr. Kligler, an idealistic Jewish Zionist and a brilliant public health scientist, arrived to settle in Palestine in 1920. He commented that:
“…unless something was done to check the ravages of malaria, the reconstruction of Palestine would be a costly if not altogether an impossible effort.” [4]
Accordingly, in 1921/22, under Kligler’s direction, Palestine became the first place anywhere in the world to embark on a successful national malaria elimination campaign. Kligler’s method relied basically upon the removal of mosquito breeding sites, and was conducted without reliance on drugs, insecticidal sprays for indoor use (DDT had not been (re)discovered yet) or bednets:

The Zionist pioneers drained the swamps infested with malaria-transmitting mosquitoes. In addition, they engaged in avast project of land reclamation., for the soil of Palestiine hd been worn out over the centuries by those who so mistreated it See the work of the American agronomist Walter Clay Lowdermilk –“Palestine Land of Promise”– published in 1944, in which he details admiringly what the Jewish pioneers managed to accomplish in so short a time, and under terrible conditions of deprivation.

When the internal stability of a civilized independent nation needs to be preserved, it becomes pivotal to keep your eye on the ball by eliminating all the terrorists that land your country in abject chaos.
Israel has clearly understood this from the very advent of its independence.
Which is the total opposite of what political leaders across Western Europe are doing at this stage.
Israel has set the example for any other civilized nation to follow, but it keeps falling on deaf ears, and thus we are screwed in Europe ! Politicians across the West are spineless, gutless and feckless idiots !

“Anti-semitism is the stench of dying democracy”. Jews are the first to be targeted as tyrants seek to seize the reigns of control.
Tripoli and Baghdad were once 25%+ percent Jewish, what happened to all the Jews and Christians in the middle east? How many more Christians will be beheaded in Africa, how more many attacks in the world?
Israel would love to have peace with their neighbors, but thank heavens, they are not suicidal. Islam can likely never reconcile its birth with Jewish (& infidel) hatred and longing for Jewish genocide. It seems there will always be deception until their goals are achieved.
God bless Israel and the West.
