 "Attempting to subsume land it sees as its own" | |
Greater Israel is commonly defined as the territory of the State of Israel together with the Palestinian territories.[1] Other definitions, favoured by Revisionist Zionists, include the territory of the former Emirate of Transjordan and the Sinai Peninsula.[2]
Between Nile and Euphrates
According to Jody McIntyre on substack:
- Amidst the Syrian people's jubilation and relief at the removal of a tyrant, the Israeli state has moved swiftly to cement their illegitimate occupation of Syrian land. The Palestinian people have written themselves into history with the blood of their martyrs, and any possible excuses for "not knowing" about the Zionist occupation of Palestine have evaporated forever. However, many are not aware of a lesser-known occupied land: the Golan Heights, or al-Jawlan, of Syria.
- For those who have lived in the region, or followed the Palestinian cause over many years, this comes as no surprise, for this is the essence of the “Greater Israel” project. Indeed, the two blue lines on their flag represent the Nile in Egypt and the Euphrates in Iraq, revealing the sheer extent of the land they hope to one day steal from the indigenous populations. This plan is as old as the Israeli state itself (so not that old), and an essential context to understanding why it acts in such a belligerent and barbaric manner.

That is of course a direct consequence of the United States being allied to both the two religio-supremacist centres of Israel and Saudi Arabia." |
