A 100 años de la Declaración de Balfour

100 years ago, the British Foreign Secretary, Arthur Balfour, issued a letter promising away Palestine to the Zionist movement. The Balfour declaration denied the existence and national rights of the Palestinian people, setting in motion a century of dispossession, ethnic cleansing, dehumanization, and continued occupation. This colonial legacy, borne of the racist colonial mentality that justified to colonial powers the subjugation and dehumanization of peoples throughout history is a living reality for Palestinians. Yet, Britain remains unapologetic and unwilling to take responsibility for the legacy of injustice it created in Palestine.
