A recent article about the war in Ukraine shows how warped Palestinian thinking is and how self-centered they are, and everything in the world revolves around them.
Written by Ghania Malhis, it is titled, "Which is more dangerous to humanity: Russia and China or the United States of America?"
Of course, she says it is the US. Her first example is that the US is the only nation to use an atom bomb.
The United States of America - which defends human rights - along with a number of Western European democracies, closed its borders in the face of Eastern European Jews fleeing the Nazi massacres. To push them to the only outlet that was opened for them in Palestine, and the British Mandate supervised its preparation to receive them, and then recruit them into a functional state, needed by the colonial West to carry out the mission of an advanced military base at the center of the region to divide the the extended Arab-Islamic region. To undertake to perpetuate its fragmentation, impede its advancement, and prevent it from regaining its unity. And thus contribute to the perpetuation of imperialist hegemony over its capabilities.
That's a lot to unpack, all of it ahistorical nonsense. But to Palestinian thinking, the tragedy of the Holocaust wasn't that millions of Jews were killed, but that some of the survivors went to Palestine.
The rest of the article is equally insane, where she cherry picks things she doesn't like about the US while barely saying a negative word about China or Russia. What she says is through the bizarre lens of Palestinians being the center of the universe while justifying the Russian invasion:
And because we in Palestine have experienced more than the bitterness of forced uprooting from the homeland and the humiliation of asylum. And we are still living its woes for the eighth decade in a row. We and our brothers among the sons of the Arab peoples in Iraq, Syria, Libya and Yemen are the most affected by the humanitarian repercussions of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A country that over many centuries constituted a vital part of Russian history and geography. It became independent from it in the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union and the disintegration of its states. And its political system mobilized to consolidate its independence and sovereignty by seeking to join the European Union and NATO, and Russia considered it an intolerable strategic threat to its national security.
Seriously - she says that Palestinians are the most affected by the Ukraine crisis. Not, you know, Ukrainians.
