President-elect Donald Trump’s promise could lead to a 60-day cease-fire, allowing Israel to suspend hostilities until military support resumes under the new administration.
The entire unhinged right wing has been declaring them UnPersons for decades. I remember in the 90s, possibly earlier, hearing wingers saying “Palestine is not even a country, it was made up by the libs/Muslims, using the term ‘Palestinian’ is talking nonsense”, and so on.
“A land without a people for a people without a land” is an old Zionist settler colonial propaganda piece that is supported by Zionist liberals as well. This coincides with Israeli “culture”, which is a weird mix of vaguely European, vaguely Jewish-ish, and the appropriation of Levantine culture. For example, going around calling hummus and pita “Israeli foods”.

The Israelis have used that line since before 1948. Standard colonial cultural erasure.
Just to help illustrate.
