How Palestine “Occupies” Itself
7th October 2017
A consistent Palestinian strategy for seeking statehood while blaming Israel for its absence has been codified through the narrative of “occupation.” The anniversary of the 1967 war brought this to the forefront in endless accusations regarding the Israeli “occupation” of the West Bank. There is even an assertion that Gaza is still “occupied.”
From that perspective, North Africa and Turkey are ‘occupied’, since those areas used to be Christian before the Muslims showed up.
