1936 Warning of a British and Zionist Colonization of Palestine.

The 1936-1939 Revolt in Palestine “Between 1936 and 1939, the Palestinian revolutionary movement suffered a severe setback at the hands of three separate enemies that were to constitute together the principal threat to the nationalist movement in Palestine in all subsequent stages of its struggle: the local reactionary leadership; the regimes in the Arab states surrounding Palestine; and the imperialist-Zionist enemy. The present study will concentrate on the respective structures of these separate forces and the dialectical relations that existed among them.“ A part from “The 1936-39 Revolt in Palestine“ by Ghassan Kanafani published in English by Committee for a Democratic Palestine, New York, 1972 and by Tricontinental Society, London, 1980. For the full study: ***** A Palestinian Warning To Britain Just Before The 1936 Palestinian Revolt Began “With illegal immigration on the increase in Mandate Palestine and with the dark promises of the Balfour Declaration hovering over the country, Palestinians issued this formal warning to Britain that unless it changes its policies facilitating Jewish immigration to Palestine, dire consequences will ensue. As we all know, Britain never heeded this warning and the Palestinian riots engulfed Palestine from 1936-1939 in civil protest and during which innocent lives were lost. According to British source at the time, more than 2000 Palestinians were killer and over 100 were hanged because of this Revolt. Although eventually squashed by British Forces in Palestine (some were brought in from outside the country), the consequences of this Revolt were felt in the events of the 1947-48 Zionist armed invasion of the country. They have shaped this conflict ever since.“ Source: LEST WE FORGET -- Palestine and the Nakba Re-Uploaded from Yemni’s Channel:
