Britain Main Pillar of Zionist Project

= The blessings and peace of Allah on Prophet Muhammad, his Family, and his Companions. =

Britain was, from the beginning, the main pillar supporting the Zionist project. Even if today it is the US.

A short summary of the article here below by Jonathan K Cook

All too often overlooked is the fact that Zionism long predates its modern-day incarnation as Jewish nationalism.

Wingate followed in a long tradition of influential European Christian Zionists, who believed that Biblical prophecy would be advanced by “restoring” the Jewish people to their ancient homeland. Only then, in a supposed “end times”, would the stage be set for Christ to return and establish his kingdom on earth.

Lord Balfour - he of the 1917 Balfour Declaration that promised a “national home” for the Jewish people in Palestine - was another prominent British Christian Zionist.

2. Summary by @Jonathan_K_Cook

Israel’s current colonial violence is simply a more sophisticated, more hi-tech version of the techniques employed by the British in Palestine nearly a century ago. The Israeli military learnt from the British – quite literally.

One of the main characters in the film Palestine 36 is the British officer Orde Wingate, who carried out night raids on Palestinian villages to terrify their inhabitants. Wingate organised punishment squads, comprised of British soldiers and recent Jewish immigrants, to conduct these raids.

The training he offered to the Jewish militias in British military colonial strategy and hybrid warfare would later serve as the Israeli military’s playbook.

The death of Wingate in 1944 in a plane crash in Burma was lamented by David Ben Gurion, Israel’s founding father. He commented that, had Wingate survived, he might have served as Israel’s first military chief of staff.

The film shows Wingate committing routine war crimes: using a Palestinian child as a human shield; rounding up Palestinian women and children to put them in an open-air, barbed-wire camp, depriving them of water in the midday heat; burning Palestinian crops; blowing up a bus of Palestinian men he had arbitrarily detained.

Meanwhile, British colonial police officer Charles Tegart imported into Palestine militarised forts of a type he had earlier devised and constructed across India to put down uprisings there.

These forts would become the blueprint for Israel’s series of steel and concrete walls and checkpoints that have fragmented historic Palestine, and caged much of the Palestinian population into prisons – including the largest, Gaza.

Watching Palestine 36, it is hard not be reminded – as we see Palestinians ritually humiliated, abused and killed by the British, supposedly to instil obedience – why each Palestinian generation has grown more radicalised and more desperate.

Britain’s vicious, colonial repression of the three-year uprising of 1936 led ultimately to Hamas’ violent one-day jail-break on 7 October 2023 and Israel’s genocidal, colonial rampage in response.

Israel’s genocide will no more pacify this generation of Palestinians than Wingate’s crushing of the Arab Revolt did to an earlier generation. It will simply deepen the wounds – and a collective will to resist.

British means English. It’s England’s colonial veil. All this was done in Scotland & to Scots long before. As a remaining English colony, Scotland has started its decolonisation via UN mechanisms. Liberation is coming. The English coloniser must end its territorial alienation. The root of all English colonialism remains in Scotland. @thomsonchris

What the Palestine36 film clearly shows is that the Zionists would never have succeeded in displacing the Palestinians from their homes and their land without deliberate collusion on the part of the British government in London and the British soldiers on the ground in Palestine. @offcpress

When it all got too hot for them, and the Jewish terrorists started annihilating British Army and diplomats, the UK got out of there and handed Palestine over to the zionists. The UK handed treachery to a treacherous, apartheid state that has been committing genocide for 77 years. @SeanLlangynidr

The origin of evil is always the Anglosaxon empire led by the tyrannical of past British thugs. @abidhus47896471

This film left me feeling so angry. The British were monstrous. @dolat_mai

I attended a screening of the movie this Thursday and it is truly heartbreaking to realise that all these oppressive mechanisms were indeed already in place before WWII and before 1948. @juan_oliv1

“Field Marshal Montgomery told Moshe Dayan in 1966 that he considered Wingate to have "been mentally unbalanced and that the best thing he ever did was to get killed in a plane crash in 1944.”

“Tom Segev called him "quite mad, and perhaps a sadist, too, and a war criminal.” @KerilKunnen

And,too, of course, there is the genocidal British history of India. @sfsuntree1

Oh my dear
You failed to point out this is a film which has be heavily criticised for its ‘one sided narrative and historical inaccuracies.’
Typical fake paly supporter to conflate fiction with reality

Criticisms regarding historical bias:
• One-Sided Narrative: Some reviewers find it biased, portraying Jewish immigrants as purely rapacious colonizers and ignoring Palestinian leaders’ primary opposition to Jewish immigration over British rule.

• Misrepresentation of Motives: Critics argue the film simplifies complex motivations, suggesting Palestinian leaders would have accepted British rule if Jewish immigration stopped, which the film allegedly downplays.

• “Crude” or “Exaggerated”: Some view the depiction of British actions and motivations as overly simplified or exaggerated for dramatic effect. @expatred66

So the violence in Yemen, Syria, Libya, Iran, previously in Egypt, Iraq… all dismissed to what is just an antisemitic rant? @VonBarkenTwins

The Link Between the Israel Project and Global Imperialism The United States and Britain play a central role in advancing the Greater Israel project. Zionist goals overlap with the imperial ambitions of these powers. This linkage makes Zionism not just an ethnic project but part of a wider effort to establish a new global order.
