A Century of Colonial Struggle in a Postcolonial World
In 1899, Jerusalem's Ottoman mayor Yusuf Diya al-Khalidi warned Theodor Herzl that Palestine was "inhabited by others" who would never accept displacement. Herzl's dismissive reply established a pattern defining the next century: ignoring indigenous concerns while claiming Jewish immigration would benefit locals. While publicly asking "who would think of sending them away?", Herzl privately recorded plans to "spirit" the native population across borders. This exchange reveals the fundamentally colonial nature of what would become a hundred-year war on Palestine - a conflict where powerful external forces repeatedly allied with Zionist ambitions against the indigenous population. Despite overwhelming odds, Palestinians have shown remarkable resistance to political elimination. More than 120 years after the first Zionist congress and over 70 years after Israel's creation, the Palestinian people remain a formidable presence, making Israel's position as contested globally as ever before.
