History of Palestine and Israel history (sourced from Quora by Ghassan Khalid Barghouti, a Palestinian, edit: this post was published four years ago):

“First of all, let me give you a brief history of Palestine. Palestine was originally a province of the Ottoman empire akin to a US state or a Canadian province and then got occupied by the British when the Ottoman empire lost in WW1. Current independent countries such as Jordan, Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon were more or less a part of the Ottoman empire. While each of these countries share similar culture and social make up, their exist some difference, and the people of these countries that were mentioned got independence from the British empire expect for Palestine.

Palestine has an Arab and Islamic majority and a sizable Jewish minority. Some of those Jews lived peacefully in Palestine for generations, some even go back to the Kingdom of Israel. But the larger portion of those Jews came from Europe to escape persecution. They came to Palestine as refugees and they largely lived side-by-side with Mulisms and Christians.

Everything good so far? Now, unfortunately things from there on weren’t as good. Because the world sympathized with Jews as a result of the Holocaust, they decided to grant them a country in Palestine (which didn’t even have a Jewish majority). So naturally the Arabs rejected those move, because for them, it didn’t make sense that you should lose your lands just because another group of people suffered by another group of people were not even part of your continent. So they resisted. Unfortunately for them, the extremist Jewish militias were more organized, and they killed lots of simple farmers and villagers and forced others to flee, and denied them the chance to come back to their homeland after the war was over.

Now forward to the present. You have Jewish-European state sitting upon a land that once had a Mulisms, Christians, and Jews living on it, who were Arabs and many of them identified as “Palestinians”. These Palestinians are now either, second-class citizens in Jordan, or living a very uncomfortable life in the Westbank with checkpoints all over the place, walls separating territories, and extremist settlers living in among them, and sometimes abusing or burning their victims alive.

What do Palestinians want? They want justice as a start. They need to have their land back, and not being refugees anymore.”

I am so sorry that this is a short stamp but these are general things to know on what to do/the history of Palestine and I hope you help, listen, and support. I hope that the Palestinian people are saved and given their beautiful country back.
