The Gaza documentation project Let us begin with something that everyone knows, or maybe not everyone, as current generations did not grow up in an era when there was no video but celluloid. And even then, when there were videos (VHS and Betamax), there was no YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, TikTok, or Instagram. The first Internet video hosting site was ShareYourWorld.com, founded in 1997. There are many definitions of history. However, the simplest way to explain it is to use the pictured images. A celluloid film consists of a series of frames. Each frame is part of a scene, which, in return, may be part of a series of scenes. They all together form what is called a sequence. So, a movie is built up by a series of sequences. If you watch the whole film, you will see a chronology of frames, scenes, and sequences. Visualizing history is similar to this, meaning that you can imagine history as a complete movie unless you cut it into pieces to remove frames, scenes, or even a whole sequence that you don't want people to watch. Like every movie, any event must have a beginning, as nothing happens in a vacuum. There is always a main cause or root, which always lies in the very past. And so it is about Gaza.

According to the online encyclopedia, the Arab countries were challenging each other: who would be THE Arab leader in the region? The position would only be gained when any Arab leader has as much public support as possible. Nasser would do this by blocking all shipping lines from passing the Strait of Tiran to Eilat The Israelis reacted by warning the Egyptian president that the blocking would indefinitely be a casus belli, while the waterway is part of Egypt's territory. The Israelis started the war in June 1967, which also included an offensive on Egyptian troops in Gaza. When the enclave was seized, the Israelis colonized it, not occupied it, as there were at least 21 permanent settlements in the enclave. The West Bank has also been under colonization since 1967, as there are more than 100 permanent but illegal settlements.
On the right, a 4-minute video clip in which we put in chronological order how it all started to happen. We have given the clip the title "From the war in June to the First Gaza War", and it shows just the beginning of what is going to happen in 2025: the extermination of the existence of life in Gaza.. The existence of Hamas is by the Israelis themselves. The group didn't emerge out of the blue. The United Nations has designated Hamas as a political movement while its armed wings are within the Law of Belligerent Occupation, which states that occupied people have the right to form armed groups to resist occupation. But Hamas is branded a "terrorist organization" on religionized and ideological grounds. Members of Hamas have the full right to resist the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the annexation of the West Bank. If they take and use that right, they must distinguish themselves from the civilian population, or based on articles 43 & 44 of the Additional Protocol I of the Geneva Conventions, at least carry their weapons openly during attacks and deployments. Israelis are alien to the region as they descend from European migrants, settlers, and colonists, while the current population is from around the world living on a land surrounded by countries where people have been there for centuries. |
Let us first mention that everything about Gaza and Hamas didn't begin on October 7, 2023, but on June 5, 1967, when the Israelis invaded the enclave and colonized it for some 40 years!.

Our documentation is not limited to Gaza. The Israeli infowar is one of many more that we are monitoring. But it is not new to us that the Israelis are a threat to democracies in Western countries, as the United States was the first country where they started to interfere when a Canadian Ashkenazi was sent by the Israelis to defend the 1949 Deir Yassin massacre. He is the founder of the predecessor of AIPAC, from where the Israelis have taken full control over everything about them, for them, and against the Palestinians. The Netherlands is the first country in the Western world to publicly say the Israelis are a threat. |
