Today marks the 76th anniversary of the Deir Yassin Massacre, when hundreds of armed Zionist militiamen from the Pre 1948 Irgun and Stern gangs committed one of the worst massacres in the history of Palestine.
On April 9, 1948, Zionist gangs raided the village of Deir Yassin, killing nearly 250 Palestinian civilians, mainly women, children and the elderly. Cases of killing, rape, displacement, mutilation, and destruction were documented.
Of nearly 70 massacres during the 1948 Nakba, Deir Yassin would become one of those ingrained in the mind of Palestinians forever.
Then, like now, Israel’s allies allowed it to happen. International law are meaningless unless they apply to everyone.
