WATCH: 75 years of Nakba lies that define today's Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Brooke Goldstein, the executive director and founder of The Lawfare Project, which seeks to raise awareness about the abuse of Western legal systems and human rights law, explains why the narrative that casts Israel's creation as a "catastrophe" for the Arabs is replete with falsehoods.

In 1948, the seven Arab armies invaded the newly declared state of Israel with explicit intent to destroy it.

Why? Not because it was their land – it wasn't. There was never a state of Palestine.

Not because it prevented them from having a state – they were offered one in the UN Partition Plan and refused

Not because they were endangered – in fact, it was Arab leaders who told them to flee not Jews – and the Arabs too stayed got full citizenship.

No, the real reason they launched a war is because they refused to accept that Jews came home to the land of Israel – in ANY borders.

The "Nakba" which means catastrophe in Arabic, doesn't mourn the handful of Arab families who were adversely affected – it mourns the FAILURE of Arabs to commit a genocide against Jews.

So yes, Nakba commemoration is literally embracing Jew-hatred and inciting lies based on historical falsehoods that contribute to conflict today.

And that's the real travesty – instead of moving forward and building a better future, so-called Palestine "activists" are obsessed with the past – a past they are flat-out lying about in many cases.
