Zionists’ Thanksgiving

After Christmas and New Year, the most celebrated holiday is Thanksgiving. This is a holiday only in the United States, when schools are closed for the whole week, and most of the other citizens have a four-day holiday weekend.

This holiday, with its specific tradition, is celebrated across the United States. This is to thank native Indians, who saved pilgrims in Plymouth Ohio in 1621, when the pilgrims were served national bird of the land, by Wampanoag natives, and at the time they were starving. A year later, after the increase in the number of settlers, and when they became more powerful militarily, the same settlers massacred those who fed them the year before. Settlers needed a new land to live in and to grow vegetables and raise domesticated animals in those lands. Therefore, they needed to grab natives’ properties in order to expand their territories. This tradition is taught in detail in all schools in the land. Of course, those last two statements are usually dropped from the textbooks, when the history of Thanksgiving is discussed.
Many of the natives were killed and tribes were destroyed and obliterated by white settlers. As a result, the remaining natives started serving settlers just to save their lives and survive their brutalities. Torturing and subduing natives continued for decades, until white settlers’ communities grew larger, and they started importing Africans as slaves. By this time, many of the native tribes were annihilated.
This was an act of genocide, even if the settlers were after the properties of the natives, and not really proposing to destroy a human race. However, if they continued their brutal actions of killing natives, a genocide of that race would have been definitely accomplished. As it is, the number of what was referred to as Indian race is less than seven million today, according to US Census Bureau.
Zionists moved to Palestine, which was at the time controlled by the British Imperialism, while Palestinians had a vibrant progressive community, and trading with the most surrounding countries. There is a film about life in Palestine before Zionists decided to share the land with them, which shows the growth of the industry and trade in that land. When the first group of settlers were moved by Zionist societies to Palestine after the second world war, they were welcomed and treated humanely, the way American settlers were treated by natives in 1621.

When Israeli leaders spoke of a genocide in Palestine, one can find similarities with the treatment of natives by American governments. Therefore, it is recommended for Zionist government to dedicate a national holiday for the day when first settlers arrived in the land of Palestine. Based on all documents, the first group of settlers in Palestine did not have any problem settling down, since one could easily find many Palestinian families belonging to any of the three main religions of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism across Palestine. Perhaps the reason for the United States government supporting Israeli Zionist government so devotedly, is the similarity between the ways each took over a land, obliterated the inhabitants, and established a large militarist government.
