Welcome to 10 Facts About The Arab-Israeli Conflict.
This website presents, in condensed form, information about the Arab-Israeli conflict that is often distorted or omitted from public discourse. Specifically, it aims to shed light on the Israeli side of the conflict, and to counter and expose the disinformation and double standards to which Israel is often subjected.
The information is organized under 10 basic facts, each of which links to a more detailed explanation. Each point made in the explanations is itself supported by links to one or more external documents on the Internet.
The 10 facts are:
1. Jews have lived in Israel continuously for over 3,000 years
2. Zionism is not about race - it’s about a home
3. Israel has repeatedly tried to share the land with the Palestinians
4. The goal of Israel’s enemies is to annihilate Israel - not just end the occupation
5. Arab violence against civilians is not a result of the occupation
6. Palestinian leadership actively collaborated with the Nazis during WWII
7. Palestinian suffering is the most effective weapon in the war against Israel
8. Palestinian children are being brainwashed into hate, martyrdom and genocide
9. Palestinians are treated differently than all other refugees
10. Israel is treated differently than all other countries
It is hoped that the information presented will reach specifically those who, out of a well-meaning intention to fight injustice and promote freedom, have accepted the widespread narrative according to which the Israelis are bloodthirsty oppressors, and the Palestinians guiltless victims.
Let it be clarified, however, that the aim of this site is not to justify abuse of Palestinians, or to trivialize Palestinian suffering, or their claims to the land and to a state of their own. Nor is there any intention to portray Israel, its government, or its military, as perfect or without blame. This site is intended as a resource for the advocacy and defense of the Israeli cause – not as a blanket justification of all Israeli actions, or as a blanket condemnation of all Palestinians.
Those interested in learning more about the Palestinian side are invited to search the internet and find the tremendous number of websites devoted to the Palestinian cause. For other online advocates of the Israeli cause, please see the Links page.
The reader is highly encouraged to approach both the Palestinian and Israeli sites with the same standards of objectivity, skepticism and verification as they would apply when evaluating this, or any other document.
