@unionjackjackson4352 "Oppressed my arse."
The reality:
Damage to European Union-funded projects in Palestine during Israeli attacks and other incursions is nothing new. However, following the union’s move in 2015 to label Israeli settlement products, the number of EU-funded projects demolished or confiscated by Israel increased dramatically. In the first three months of 2016, the number of demolitions per month, of either private property or Internationally/EU–funded projects, increased to 165, from an average of 50 during 2012-2015, The United Nations office for coordination of humanitarian affairs 'OCHA' has documented 120 demolitions against EU-financed buildings in the first three months of 2016.
Euro-Med Monitor estimates that since 2001, the Israeli authorities have destroyed approximately 150 development projects, of which totally or partial funded by the EC and its member states, of what incurs the EU a financial loss of approximately €58 million out of the total €85 million worth of damage.
Euro-Med Monitor also estimates that since 2001, the total value of EU squandered aid money (development and humanitarian projects)amounts to €65million—of which at least €23million were lost during the 2014 assault alone.

@unionjackjackson4352 And:
During the 1947–49 Palestine war, an estimated 700,000 Palestinians fled or were expelled, comprising around 80% of the Palestinian Arab inhabitants of what became Israel.[25][26] Almost half of this figure (approximately 250,000–300,000 Palestinians) had fled or had been expelled ahead of the Israeli Declaration of Independence in May 1948,[27] a fact which was named as a casus belli for the entry of the Arab League into the country, sparking the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.[28]
Clause 10.(b) of the cablegram from the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States to the UN Secretary-General of 15 May 1948 justifying the intervention by the Arab States, the Secretary-General of the League alleged that "approximately over a quarter of a million of the Arab population have been compelled to leave their homes and emigrate to neighbouring Arab countries." In the period after the war, a large number of Palestinians attempted to return to their homes; between 2,700 and 5,000 Palestinians were killed by Israel during this period, the vast majority being unarmed and intending to return for economic or social reasons.[29] The expulsion of the Palestinians has since been described by some historians as ethnic cleansing.[14][15][16]

The UN Partition Plan of 1947 assigned 56% of Palestine to the future Jewish state, while the Palestinian majority, 66%, were to receive 44% of the territory. 80% of the land in the to-be Jewish state was already owned by Palestinians; 11% had a Jewish title.[34] Before, during and after the 1947–1949 war, hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages were depopulated and destroyed.[35][36] Geographic names throughout the country were erased and replaced with Hebrew names, sometimes derivatives of the historical Palestinian nomenclature, and sometimes new inventions.[37] Numerous non-Jewish historical sites were destroyed, not just during the wars, but in a subsequent process over a number of decades. For example, over 80% of Palestinian village mosques have been destroyed, and artefacts have been removed from museums and archives.[38]
A variety of laws were promulgated in Israel to legalize the expropriation of Palestinian land.[39][40]
########
The first Israeli Nationality Law, passed on 14 July 1952, denationalized Palestinians, rendering the former Palestinian citizenship "devoid of substance", "not satisfactory and is inappropriate to the situation following the establishment of Israel".[45][46]

@unionjackjackson4352 And:
Amnesty International demonstrates that Israeli authorities treat Palestinians as an inferior racial group who are defined by their non-Jewish, Arab status. This racial discrimination is cemented in laws which affect Palestinians across Israel and the OPT.
For example, Palestinian citizens of Israel are denied a nationality, establishing a legal differentiation from Jewish Israelis. In the West Bank and Gaza, where Israel has controlled the population registry since 1967, Palestinians have no citizenship and most are considered stateless, requiring ID cards from the Israeli military to live and work in the territories.
Palestinian refugees and their descendants, who were displaced in the 1947-49 and 1967 conflicts, continue to be denied the right to return to their former places of residence. Israel’s exclusion of refugees is a flagrant violation of international law which has left millions in a perpetual limbo of forced displacement.
Palestinians in annexed East Jerusalem are granted permanent residence instead of citizenship – though this status is permanent in name only. Since 1967, more than 14,000 Palestinians have had their residency revoked at the discretion of the Ministry of the Interior, resulting in their forcible transfer outside the city.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has accused the Israeli army of obstructing medical access to civilians in the Rafah refugee camp, occupied since last week by Israeli forces.
Nasira Butin, local medical coordinator for the charity, said: “Our teams have experienced enormous problems in reaching health centres and parts of town that have come under attack. There seems to be hardly any coordination among the Israeli authorities on the ground, and our teams, though officially authorised to travel, are having guns pointed at them and their path blocked by tanks.
########
“I myself was with a group that was shot at, in a tent where we were holding a clinic. The only people there were MSF workers and mothers and their children. Our car was outside, clearly marked, and we had the flag showing. Bullets started coming through the tent and we all lay on the ground. I telephoned the IDF [Israeli Defence Forces] and the fire stopped immediately. The army told us we could leave, but said once we were gone they would continue to fire on the Palestinians.”

@unionjackjackson4352 And here's the evidence that it was all planned decades before israel had been founded:
Jabotinsky frequently accused Labor Zionism of hypocrisy; in his view, the creation of a Jewish state had always meant imposing the will of Zionism on the Palestinian Arabs, and the resistance of the latter to the former was but the natural and logical consequence of Zionist objectives. According to Jabotinsky, Zionist actions had been carried out against the wishes of the Arab majority.
Zionist colonization, even the most restricted, must either be terminated or carried out in defiance of the will of the native population. This colonization can, therefore, continue and develop only under the protection of a force independent of the local population-an iron wall which the native population cannot break through. This is, in toto, our policy towards the Arabs. To formulate it any other way would be hypocrisy.
He also pointed out that Zionists believed in an “iron wall”:
in this sense, there is no meaningful difference between our “militarists” and our “vegetarians." One prefers an iron wall of Jewish bayonets, the other proposes an iron wall of British bayonets, the third proposes an agreement with Baghdad, and appears to be satisfied with Baghdad’s bayonets-a strange and somewhat risky taste-but we all applaud, day and night, the iron wall.70

@unionjackjackson4352 And here's where they got the inspiration:
It is the Betar movement, with its adopted fascist ideas and displays, that forms the prime target for allegations of Zionist ideological sympathy for Nazism. Signs of Zionism’s Nazi-fascist sympathies are adduced from the actions and statements of some of its leading figures. For example, in 1928, Abba Ahimeir, a leading member of the far-right wing of the Revisionist movement, wrote a regular column in Do’ar ha-Yom titled “Mi-Pinkaso shel Fashistan” (From a fascist’s notebook). In 1931 he played a central role in the founding of Berit ha-Biryonim, an underground group devoted to opposing British policy in Palestine. At the trial of members of this organization, who disrupted a speech delivered by Berit Shalom leader Norman Bentwich at Hebrew University in early 1932, their lawyer declared: “yes, we Revisionists have a great admiration for Hitler. Hitler has saved Germany.
