This post is something that I need to say and speak about.
I grew up in the Christian church and was taught the stories of Israel and the Israelites. And so for years I believed that Israel was a beautiful country and that the land was given to them by god.
I was taught wrong
Few years later I’m a sophomore in high school and in my history class learning about world war 2. We are talking about hitler and Germany and the genocide and holocaust of the jews. Then we learn how the Jews that were in the United States and the rest of Europe who escaped the holocaust and we’re survivors were put into a country called Palestine.
Imagine my shock when I learned that Israel never existed until after world war 2. The fact that the country they were put and lived in was actually called Palestine. Looking and seeing the world maps that the country was always Palestine and never Israel.
everything I learned as a young girl in a church about Israel was a lie. The fact that we are witnessing and seeing a genocide happen to the Palestine people and our government is doing nothing about it makes me sick. Israel is doing the same thing the nazis did to the Jews.
THIS IS NOT A WAR IT’S A GENOCIDE!!
