Hypocrites
by Nahida the exiled Palestinian
This open letter is an enumeration of guidelines toward a possible PEACE, it is destined to BLIND supporters of ZIONISM who blather "peace" while live in a state of denial
Those who attempt to beautify the ugly fascist racist face of zionism, who apply themselves as a dripping lipstick on the lips of a pig in a futile attempt to revamp its gruesome features
Those who delude themselves that if they use their lovey-dovey words they could disguise the true vile nature, the wicked chauvinistic ideology and incessant crimes of the monster of zion
Those who feel no shame in defending a disgraceful entity which happened to be established by terror and maintained by terror and continue to exist by terrorising those under its control
Those who act as a pathetic frayed fig leaf trying to conceal the obscenity and hideous disgrace of their state which was audaciously built upon the destruction of another nation
Those who ludicrously still marvel at and admire the naked emperor’s clothes when everyone in the world could see his pitiful nudity
Those who utter their disingenuous wishes to coexist in peace while choosing to live in a state of denial with their heads in the sand by refusing to acknowledge or remedy their injustices and wrong-doings
Those who refuse to listen to the voice of reason and the call of justice, and muffle each and every whisper that asks for it
Those who silence any call for GENUINE and TOTAL reconciliation and block every REAL endeavour that gives an honest diagnosis and point out to the genuine healing process which would lead to reconciliation
Those who attempt to deceive the world by accusing every defiant and decent individual who insists upon full restoration of rights, dignity and humanity of Palestinians, by accusing him/ her of extremism, fanaticism or support of terrorism
Those who endeavour to cover the rays of truth with a sieve of lies
Neither do I desire to waste my breath on, nor do I have the interest to talk to
They are worthy only of their karma
Collaborators of crime, who want to escape responsibility, keep the status quo, and dismiss the due rights of their prey under the disguise of nonsensical words like:
"New israel wants peace"
“We must accept facts on the ground”
“We must not go back in time”
"We are two peoples with one future"
“We must look forward to this future”
What future, you hypocrites?
What good is a future built upon denied massacres and genocide?
What good is a future built upon incessant theft and lies?
What good is a future, in which the criminals would neither acknowledge their wrong doings nor have the desire to remedy the wounds of their injured victims
What is the meaning of words when actions counteract?
Have they never came across the saying “Actions speaks louder than words”?
Over the past sixty years you've had your say and you did what you chose to do,
And now,
Well, guess what?
It’s time for us to speak and for YOU to LISTEN to us and HEAR our say:
you are not welcome in our stolen land of Palestine with your existing mentality
Before we accept you and welcome you as guests and as our brothers and sisters in our land that you have stolen:
Go
Repent
Wash the blood off your hands
And weep
Weep the souls of the little ones you’ve murdered
Weep the innocent villages you’ve destroyed
Weep the blessed olive trees you’ve uprooted
Weep the tears of little girls you’ve orphaned
Weep the mutilated bodies of small boys you’ve devastated
Weep the tens of thousands of youth you’ve disabled
Weep the tens of thousands of homes you demolished
Weep the millions of aching hearts of refugees you’ve created
Weep the soil of the Holy Land you’ve polluted
Weep the stream waters and ancient wells you’ve poisoned
Weep the hundreds of thousands of bodies you’ve tortured
Weep the hills and orchards you’ve disfigured
Weep the alleyways you’ve dissected
Weep the landscape you’ve cut to pieces
Weep the towns you’ve bombed to oblivion
Weep the dignified women you’ve dishonoured
Weep the enduring elderly you’ve humiliated
Weep the infants you prevented from getting to hospitals
Weep the laughter and giggles of tiny ones you’ve muted
Weep the scents of herbs and blossoms you’ve suffocated
Weep the farms you’ve destroyed and confiscated
Weep the culture of embroidery, humus and falafel you’ve robbed and claimed
Weep the prophets’ messages you've abused and defiled
Weep the Divine Guidance you’ve corrupted
Weep the Ten Commandments you’ve violated
And when you weep long enough, hard enough and sincerely enough, you will discover that you don’t need to come to us begging us to talk to you or to forgive you, you won’t need to go around the web scattering, boasting and blathering about peace
Because if and when your repentance is genuine it will automatically show in your actions
You will know then what you have to do and how to do it, to be forgiven
And then and only then, you WILL find “peace” that you allegedly seek
Nahida Izzat is a Jerusalem-born Palestinian refugee who has lived in exile for over forty two years, after being forced to leave her homeland at the tender age of seven in 1967, during the six-day war. She has a degree in mathematics, but art is one of her favorite pastimes. She loves hand-made things and so makes dolls, cards, and most of her own clothes. She also writes poetry, participates in written dialogues and believes in building bridges, not walls.
Her dream is to return back home to a free and liberated Palestine.

your lack of understanding and compassion will eventually backfire. How can you demand anything, when Israelis got out of their way to explain their plight and situation under which they came to Palestine?
