The ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians started long before 1948

The ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians on their own land actually started long before 1948 when Palestine was officially renamed Israel. The Balfour declaration was signed in 1917 - two years before the end of WW1 in 1919. Not long after - War hardened Zionists were assigned to begin the ethnic cleansing in Palestine in preparation for the Zionists takeover of Palestine in 1948. As you can see in the Balfour declaration - Rothschild’s were openly Zionist when the declaration was signed in 1917 and Zionists are not Jewish. ◾️Israeli Soldiers Speak of what they did In Tantura city in 1948 to Palestinian civilians: The Tantura massacre took place on the night of 22–23 May 1948 during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War - when around 200 Palestinian Arab villagers from Tantura were massacred by the Israeli Defense Force’s Alexandroni Brigade. The massacre occurred following Tantura’s surrender, a village of roughly 1,500 people in 1945 located near Haifa. The victims were buried in a mass grave, which today serves as a car park for the nearby Tel Dor beach.
