Database of Palestine colonization quotes



PALCIT is a database of quotes on the Zionist colonization of Palestine. Quotations do not replace History, but there is no History without quotations. Those in PALCIT come either from recognized historians or from media that have shed light on the news. Their authors are most often people who have played a direct and important role of political power. This choice is intended to give a raw material to understand the ideology that has guided the decisions taken since the birth of Zionism to lead to today's Israel.

The authenticity of the quotations and their sources have been carefully verified.

Authentic quotations are accessible:

  • by searching for exact phrases.
  • by date or period. This is the date of the quotations and not the period evoked by them.
  • by author.
  • by theme.

The quotations may be downloaded at the bottom of the QUOTATION page.

This site is a tribute to all past and present source persons and sites that have provided well-controlled data, especially Palestine Remembered.

Quotation from Yosef Weitz “This may destroy the very foundation of our state” — Sep. 29 1967

Obsessive promoter of the expulsion of Palestinians since the 1930s, fearing that everything would have to be redone after the conquest of the West Bank and Gaza in 1967.
Author : Thematics :
"

From that point of view, the ‘transfer’ solution was discussed at the time, and it was supported by B. Katznelson, J. Vulkani and M. Ussishkin, and some preliminary preparations were made to translate this theory into practice. Years later, when the UN passed the resolution to partition Palestine into two states, the War of Independence broke out to our great fortune. In this war, a twofold miracle occurred: territorial victory and the flight of the Arabs. In the Six Day War, there was one miracle: a tremendous territorial victory. But the general population of the liberated territories remained ‘stuck’ in their places, and this may destroy the very foundation of our state.The demographic problem is the most acute, especially when to its numerical weight is added the weight of the refugees.
