For the first time in the history of the genocide and dispossession of Palestinians, the Nakba Exhibit was put on display at the Canadian Museum of Human Rights.
Located in Winnipeg, the museum faced extreme pressure from the zionist lobby to not exhibit the Nakba.
True to their bullying nature, the zionists accused the museum staff of ‘misrepresenting’ history.
They insisted that the zionist version of events must also be presented at the same time.
The zionists want to monopolise all discourse.
They are perpetrating an ongoing genocide of the Palestinians but this must not be mentioned because, well, it constitutes “anti-semitism”.
The Nakba Exhibit, titled “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present,” opened on June 26 attended by more than 700 people.
Over the course of two years, millions of people will get an opportunity to see it and learn about the suffering of Palestinians.
The exhibit includes oral histories from interviews with Palestinian Canadians and showcases artifacts that represent their memories and hopes of being able to return to their ancestral homes.
Other items on display include keys to Palestinians’ homes from which they were forcibly evicted by marauding zionist gangs during the Nakba (May 1948), and property deeds from family homes in Palestine.
There is also a thobe with tatreez, a keffiyeh, and a Jaffa Oranges wrapper.
These have been passed down for generations as a reminder of their connection to the land.
While it is a modest display within a larger exhibition on contemporary human rights issues, the Nakba exhibit is an important breakthrough.
Hitherto, Palestinian suffering was considered unimportant, or at best a minor issue.
Bringing it up, much less showing it as an exhibit, was considered a ‘crime’.
The zionists have always tried to control the narrative.
Palestinian suffering does not merit attention, according to zionist racists and bigots.
The horrors that the zionists have perpetrated and continue in Gaza and the West Bank, have awakened most people to the demonic nature of zionism.
The British medical journal, Lancet, estimates that Palestinian deaths in Gaza since October 2023 are 40% higher than officially reported.
Of these, the vast majority are children and women.
Almost every building in Gaza—homes, apartment buildings, schools, colleges, libraries, universities, hospitals and even bakeries have been destroyed.
And those Palestinians that have survived the genocide are being starved to death by the deliberate withholding of food, water and medicines.
The Nakba, meaning the Catastrophe, marks the ongoing dispossession of Palestinians from their ancestral homes in historic Palestine.
Heavily-armed marauding zionist gangs, almost all of them illegal intruders from Europe and Russia, carried out horrific massacres in Palestine.
Men, women and children were shot or hacked to death.
The aim was to create terror and force the Palestinians to flee.
These terrorist acts resulted in the forced expulsion of more than 750,000 Palestinians.
An illegitimate entity, the zionist state of Israel, was created on those lands.
The Nakba Exhibit in Winnipeg “Palestine Uprooted” puts the spotlight on the massacres of 1948.
For Palestinians, the Nakba has never ended.
It continues in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and their dispossession, through illegal settlement expansions in the West Bank.
While the zionist lobby’s propaganda was amplified by the craven Canadian media, the Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Marc Miller, also jumped into the fray.
He alleged that there have been “errors” and “failures” that “should be rectified,” in the Nakba Exhibit.
When asked to clarify, he said Hamas should be identified as a ‘terrorist’ organisation.
Perhaps Miller is unaware that Hamas did not exist in 1948.
It was formed in 1987, almost 30 years later, because of zionist Israel’s ongoing atrocities against the Palestinian people.
To his credit, NPD leader, Avi Lewis, who is Jewish, took Miller to task.
In a Facebook post, Lewis wrote:
“Minister Miller says, ‘It isn’t up to me to speak to, or insert myself in, the curation of any particular exhibit.’ And then he does exactly that.
“His comments are a direct attack on the independence of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights—exactly what the Museums Act is meant to prevent.
“The story of the Nakba needs to be told. It’s a hard history to confront: Israel’s independence was achieved with massacres, ethnic cleansing, and the forcible displacement of over 750,000 Palestinians.
“And it’s a story that’s not over: all of those assaults on human dignity and fundamental human rights continue to this day.”
