From the beginning, Zionists advocated a "Jewish State" not just in #Palestine, but also in #Jordan, southern #Lebanon, and the #GolanHeights as well.
As it will be proved from the quotes below:

#Palestinians are not indigenous to #Palestine👈This propaganda has no other purpose than 2 further dehumanize Palestinians & justify #Israel’s ongoing ethnic cleansing & murder
In #BenGurion own words👇😡you'll see how that outrageous claim is far removed from historical reality

“We must expel the Arabs and take their places…”~#DavidBenGurion
Born in 1886 as David Green (Gruen) in Plonsk, #Poland. He is considered one of the three founding figures of Zionism beside #ChaimWeizmann & #Herzl.

“We must expel the Arabs & take their places”~#BenGurion, founding father of #Israel -BASED On Declassified Israeli Docs+Personal Diaries.
#Palestinians see him as a cruel, insensitive, racist individual & the primary force behind their dispossession

Contrary to Zionist Propaganda trying to re-write history👇🤨evidence says otherwise:
In all of #Palestine there were in 1906, 700,000 inhabitants, only 55,000 of whom were Jews, and only 550 of these were [Zionists] pioneers." (Shabtai Teveth, p. 9-10)

According to #BenGurion's biographer, it's not only that #Palestinians were the majority in their homeland as early as 1906, it also should be noted that:
The Jews in #Palestine were mostly Orthodox Jews who made up 7.8% of the total population.

As early as 1914, #BenGurion admitted secretly that #Palestinian nationalism existed, at least among the working masses. He explained that Palestinians' hatred of #Zionism was based on their fear of being dispossessed.

By the turn of the 20th century, #BenGurion advocated exclusively Jewish labor (Avodah Ivrit) in Jewish businesses. He explained why a Jewish laborer should earn a higher salary: "more intelligent & diligent" than the Arab. palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #Palestine #Israel

From the beginning, Zionists advocated a "Jewish State" not just in #Palestine, but also in #Jordan, southern #Lebanon, and the #GolanHeights as well. In 1918 #BenGurion described the future "Jewish state's" frontiers in details as follows:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #Israel

In an article published by #BenGurion in 1918, titled "The Rights of the Jews & others in #Palestine," he conceded that the #Palestinian Arabs had the same rights as Jews since they had inhabited the land "for hundreds of years". He stated in the article:palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈

“We must expel the Arabs and take their places…”~#BenGurion
Also wrote in 1937:
"With compulsory transfer we would have a vast area for settlement .... I support compulsory transfer. I don't see anything immoral in it."

#EthnicCleansing - #Jaffa, #Palestine
During the early stages of the First Palestinian #Intifada in 1936, #BenGurion was not free of ambivalence toward the #Palestinian Arabs. He stated:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#ICC4Israel #BDS #Gaza

In the mid-1930s, #BenGurion met #GeorgeAntonius, and suggested that #Palestinians should help the Zionists to expand the borders of their future "Jewish state" to include areas under French control, such as southern #Lebanon and the #GolanHeights.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

In 1936 #BenGurion admitted:"There is a conflict, a great conflict." not in the economic but the political realm. "There is fundamental conflict. We and they want the same thing: We both want #Palestine. And that is the fundamental conflict."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

In 1936 "become a force, and the Arabs respect force."~#BenGurion
This racist & belligerent remark, about Arabs being respectful of force, became a radioactive cancer that infected all sectors of the #Israel-i society.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #Palestine #Gaza

"and from the [#Palestinian] Arab point of view, they are right--"~#BenGurion also argued that: "no government in the world can prevent individual terror. . . when a people is fighting for its land, it is not easy to prevent such acts."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #Palestine

In rare situations, #BenGurion EMPATHIZED with the #Palestinian people.
In a letter to Moshe Sharett in 1937:"I would rise up against an immigration liable in the future to hand the country & all of its [Palestinian] Arab inhabitants over to Jewish rule"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈

In 1936, #BenGurion stated in a meeting with his Mapai party:"[Arabs are] fighting dispossession ... The fear is not of losing land, but of losing the homeland of the Arab people, which others want to turn it into the homeland of the Jewish people."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

In 1937 #BenGurion emphasized that Zionism should seek peace with #Palestinians ONLY as means to realize Zionism.
He stated in 1936:"If we want Hebrew redemption 100%, then we must have 100% Hebrew settlement, a 100% Hebrew farm, & 100% Hebrew port."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

In February 1937, #BenGurion was on the BRINK of a far reaching conclusion, that the Arabs of #Palestine were a separate people, distinct from other Arabs and deserving of self-determination. He stated:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #ICC4israel

In 1937 #BenGurion:"We must EXPEL ARABS & take their places.... &, if we have to use force-not to dispossess the Arabs of the #Negev & #Transjordan,but to guarantee our own right to settle in those places-then we have force at our disposal."#BDS #Palestine

Expulsion of the #Palestinians
In 1937 #BenGurion: "It is important that this plan comes from the Commission & not from us. . . . Jewish power, which grows steadily, will also increase our possibilities to carry out the transfer on a large scale."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

1937, 20th Zionist Congress rejected the Peel partition plan, the area allotted to the"Jewish state"was smaller than expected
#Palestine into 2 states was accepted as a launching pad for future Zionist expansions & to secure unlimited Jewish immigrations.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

"I don't regard a state in part of #Palestine as the final aim of Zionism, but as a mean toward that aim"~#BenGurion
In Sep 1937, he stated to a group of American Jewish labor leaders in NY: "the borders [of the Jewish state] will not be fixed for eternity"palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#BenGurion also stated to his son Amos in October 1937 that a "Jewish state" in part of #Palestine was: "not the end, but only the beginning."Its establishment would give a "powerful boost to our historic efforts to redeem the country in its entirety."#BDS palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

1937 - Regarding settling the #Negev desert, which was allotted to the #Palestinian state, #BenGurion stated: If the Palestinian Arabs "act according to sterile nationalist emotion" & reject the idea of Jewish settlement, "then the Jewish army would act."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

When Zionists were debating the Peel Commission's partition plan, #BenGurion advised his colleges to accept the concept of partitioning ONLY as a first stage of a complete conquest. He stated in 1937:

1937, #BenGurion on the expulsion of the #Palestinians:
"the compulsory transfer of the [#Palestinian] Arabs from the valleys of the projected Jewish state . . . . we have to stick to this conclusion the same way we grabbed at the Zionism itself." #BDS
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈

In 1938, #BenGurion made it clear of his support for the establishment of a Jewish state on parts of #Palestine ONLY as an intermediary stage, he wrote:
"--we will abolish the partition of the country & we will expand to the whole Land of #Israel." #BDS

In a letter #BenGurion sent to his son in 1937, he wrote:
"A Jewish state in part [of #Palestine] is not an end, but a beginning ... through this we increase our power, and every increase in power facilitates getting hold of the country in its entirety

In Aug 1937,#BenGurion noted that "Jewish suffering is also a political factor, & whoever says that #Hitler diminished our strength, is not telling the truth"
In one of history's crueler ironies, those words proved prophetic in the #Holocaust. #Palestine
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈

The #holocaust atrocity generated a collective sense of guilt in the West which has blinded them to the suffering that came upon the #Palestinian ppl
Should be noted that the great majority of the Palestinians,almost 10million people,have been dispossessed

The 20th Zionists Congress rejected the Peel Partition Plan in 1937, 20yrs later #BenGurion wrote in 1958: "the history of our people would have been different & six million Jews in Europe would not have been killed---most of them would be in #Israel" #BDS
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

A month after the #Nazi, #Kristallnacht
#BenGurion stated in Dec 1938: "If I knew it was possible to save all [Jewish] children of #Germany by their transfer to #England & only half of them by transferring them to Eretz-Yisrael, I would choose the latter"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#BenGurion eloquently articulated the fundamental goals of Zionism to Auni Abdul Hadi,a prominent #Palestinian politician before 1948, as the following:
"Our ultimate goal is the independence of the Jewish ppl in #Palestine, on both sides of the #Jordan"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#BenGurion believed Zionist interests would b best served if the Palestinians were represented by alHajj Amin's men:"A broad delegation [to London] inc 'moderates'[Nashashibi's Istiqlal party] will display the Arab public's general resistance to the Jews"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

In 1942, #BenGurion reiterated his commitment for a "Jewish state" in all of historic #Palestine:
"this is why we formulated our demand not as a Jewish state in Palestine but Palestine as a Jewish state..."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈 #BDS #ICC4israel

#BenGurion became obsessed about "transferring" the #Palestinian Arabs out of #Palestine, and he started to contemplate the mechanics & potential problems that could arise if "transfer" was to be implemented.
The "Arab Question" in "Eretz Yisrael":
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

#BenGurion contemplated the "Arab Question" in "Eretz Yisrael", similarly, he also added:
"The possibility of large-scale transfer of a population by force was demonstrated, when the Greeks and the Turks were transferred [after WW I].

In Aug 1947,#BenGurion resorted to demonizing Arabs #Palestinians by comparing them to #Nazis, which is a common tactic by #Israelis & Zionists to exploit the feelings of sympathizers in the West with those who suffered in the #Holocaust
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #Palestine

In Nov 1947,#BenGurion urged his party to accept the #UN partition plan of #Palestine because it would never be final, and the borders of the future "Jewish state" would never be static.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS #ICC4Israel

To evacuate as many Palestinian Arabs from #Palestine as possible, #BenGurion explained that their strategic objective was to destroy the urban #Palestinian population since it was the most organized. He articulated this plan in his diary on Dec 11, 1947:palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈

And in a letter to #MosheSharett, #BenGurion explained how the urban #Palestinian population is economically vulnerable and suitable for collapse. He observed that:
"...#Haifa and #Jaffa are at our mercy. We can starve them out." palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#Israel #BDS #Palestine

Dec 19, 1947,#BenGurion advised the #Haganah: "we adopt the system of aggressive defense; with every Arab attack we must respond with a decisive blow: the destruction of the place or the expulsion of the residents along with the seizure of the place" palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

#BenGurion was both happy & sad when the #UN voted to Partition #Palestine into 2 states, Palestinian & Jewish.
He was happy because"finally"Jews could have a "country" of their own. On the other hand, he was sad bc they have"lost" almost half of Palestine.palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

In 1947 #BenGurion exploited #German #antiSemitism & said:
"The Jews do not want to stay where they are. They want to regain their human dignity, their homeland, they want reunion with their kin in #Palestine after having lost their dearest relations palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

In 1948, #BenGurion suggested to Weitz that he divest himself of:
"conventional notions . . . In the #Negev [Arab #Palestinian Land allotted by the #UN Partition] we will not buy land. We will conquer it. You are forgetting that we are at war." palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…👈#BDS

It is not only that #BenGurion envisioned war as an instrument to change the demographics picture in favor of the Jewish minority, he also envisioned war as a tool to dispossess #Palestinians and raise "millions" of pounds in capital.

In a letter sent on March 14, 1948 to Moshe Sharett, #BenGurion stated:
"They, the decisive majority of them [Palestinians], do not want to fight us."
Apr 9, 1948 #BenGurion told Mishmar Ha'emek representatives to burn & destroy the neighboring villages.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

Following #BenGurion's orders, "They faced a cruel reality ... and saw that there was only one way and that was to expel the Arab [#Palestinian] villagers & burn the villages. And they did this. And they were the 1st to do this."(#BennyMorris, p. 116) #BDS
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

Soon after #Haifa's collapse & the flight of its #Palestinian inhabitants in late Apr 1948,#BenGurion was shocked when he visited the city
He stated that Haifa was like: "a dead city, a corpse city," he noted in his journal,a "horrifying & fantastic sight"

#EthnicCleansing of #Palestine
In early May 1948,#BenGurion approved establishing the "Transfer Committee" to oversee: "the cleaning up [nikui in Hebrew] of the #Palestinian Arab settlements, cultivation of Arab fields & their settlement by Jews,"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

As for nascent #Israel’s“Davidian”status vis-a vis the Goliath of the“invading”Arab states,May 1948 days after the Arab armies had entered those parts of #Palestine ALLOCATED to the Arab state under the partition plan TO PREEMPT the advancing Jewish forces:palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#BenGurion stated:
"The Arabs cannot accept the existence of #Israel. Those who accept it are not normal. The best solution for the [#Palestinian] Arabs in Israel is to go and live in the Arab states---in the framework of a peace treaty or transfer." palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

Ironically this is the 2ND time in history when Turks are cited as an "example" to justify perpetrating WAR CRIMES. The 1ST was used by the earliest Zionist leaders (such as #ChaimWeizmann,#BenGurion, & #MosheSharett), and the 2nd was used by #Hitler:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

#YitzhakRabin wrote in his diary after #Lydda's & #Ramla's occupation on 10-11 of July 1948:
"After attacking Lydda [later called Lod] & then Ramla, .... What would they do with the 50,000 civilians living in the 2 cities ....." #EthnicCleansing #Palestine
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

Later,Rabin underlined the cruelty of the operation as mirrored in the reaction of his soldiers. He stated during an interview (which is still censored in #Israel-i publications to this day) w/ #DavidShipler from the NYT, Oct 22, 1979:
#Palestine #Massacre
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

According to #YitzhakRabin, the decision to ethnically cleanse the twin cities was an agonizing decision, however, his guilty conscience did not stop him from placing a similar order against 3 nearby villages ('#Imwas, #Yalu & #BaytNuba) 19yrs later.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

Jun 16, 1948, calls by members of the MAPAM party for the return of #Jaffa's "peace minded" #Palestinian refugees,#BenGurion stated:
"I do not accept the version policy that we should encourage their return... I believe we should prevent their return"
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

When proposed installing a puppet Palestinian Govt in the northwest of the occupied #WestBank,#BenGurion had impatiently declared on Oct 21, 1948: "The Arabs of the land of #Israel [#Palestinians] have only one function left to them -- to run away."
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

Sept 26, 1948, #BenGurion proposed to the Israeli prov. govt that #Israel should attack the #WestBank. Again, he had reiterated how a war could be used as an instrument to "transfer" population,& he used #Lydda's & #Ramla's ethnic cleansing as a precedent.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

July 1958, #Palestinians have learned that lesson already, simply put they won't run away. #BenGurion:
"This time the Palestinian Arabs on the #WestBank will not run away!" meaning the Palestinians fleeing as a result of war (what happened in the 1948 war)
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

July 24, 1948, #BenGurion clearly stated his thoughts & attitude towards the #Palestinian Arabs, especially in the light of their behavior and flight during the war. He said:
"Meanwhile, a return of Palestinian refugees is out of the question... "
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

So in #BenGurion's opinion, the absence of an Arab Einstein, the fleeing of #Palestinians during war,& not fighting are good reasons for not respecting Palestinians' rights? 😡Same thing could be argued about the Christian Crusaders. #BDS #Palestine
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#Israel-i PM #BenGurion "had a dream" to annex southern #Lebanon to the "Jewish state", and to establish a Christian state north of the #Litani River. At the beginning of the 1948 war, he stated:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS #Palestine

#BenGurion recognized that #Palestinian nationalism created the very danger he was most afraid of. He knew that the victory in 1948 was achieved not bc the #Israel-i Army was more heroic but bc the Arab armies were corrupt and the Arab world was divided.
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi…

#Israel's PM #BenGurion clearly stated Zionism's major objective, which is a "Jewish Majority" facilitated by mass Jewish immigration. In April 1949, he stated peace is a secondary priority to the "Jewish state". He explained as follows:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #Palestine #BDS

The Jewish state is in no hurry for peace. #BenGurion stated in July 1949:
"#Israel will not discuss a peace involving the concession of any piece of territory. The neighboring states do not deserve an inch of "Israel's land".

When Yosef Weitz (Jewish Natl Fund) proposed solving the #Palestinian"refugees problem" by compensating the refugees for their lost properties in the "Jewish state". #BenGurion responded:
"In his opinion, time will cure all, & all will be forgotten."

When Pinhas Rozen (#Israel's first Justice Minister) demanded that Israel's Declaration of Independence should cite the country's borders. PM #BenGurion objected, & both exchanged the following points BELOW:
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #Palestine #BDS #Occupation #EthnicCleansing

#BenGurion (an atheist) clearly never believed in static borders, but dynamic ones as described in the Bible:
"In the Bible as well as in our history, there all kinds of definitions of the country's borders, so there's no real limit."

#UN official Riley spoke to Rozen #Israel's FM
#Syria's president wants to develop Syria & accept 300,000 #Palestinian refugees. Riley asks if Israel agree to sign an armistice agreement, on the basis of the existing situation. Rozen refused the offer
palestineremembered.com/Acre/Famous-Zi… #BDS

When #Israel signed the armistice agreements (BORDERS) with #Egypt, #Jordan, #Syria, & #Lebanon, #BenGurion stated:
"While the UN has not yet recognized our (Israel's) borders, Egypt, #Transjordan, Syria, and Lebanon have done so."

When #Truman, the American President between 1944-1952, demanded that the Arabs be compensated for the loss of territories, which had not been assigned to the "Jewish state" by the #UN Partition Resolution, #Israel PM #BenGurion wrote:

#BenGurion was dismayed with the large "mass robbery" of #Palestinian properties by the citizens of the "Jewish state":
"The only thing that surprise me, and surprised me bitterly, was the discovery of such moral failings among us [Jews].."

And in one session of the Knesset Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, #Israel's PM #BenGurion referred to the Moroccan Jews as "savages," but hastily added that they were no different from other Jews as the Polish ones. He said:

In 1949, #Israel's PM #BenGurion was not free of ambivalence in his attitude towards the Yemenite Jewish immigrants. In a letter to Yigael Yadin, the first Israeli Chief of Staff, Ben Gurion wrote:

When #MosheSharett objected to #BenGurion's belligerent attitude towards #Egypt in 1954, Ben-Gurion said to Ze'ef Sharef:

He also envisioned a great enterprise to exploit #Sinai's (Egypt) natural resources as well.

#Israel's PM #BenGurion declared.

Nahum Goldman (one of the prominent Zionists leaders) spoke to #BenGurion before he died in 1973:

Who says I sleep? he answered simply.
