- Historical Roots: Palestinians consider themselves the indigenous people of historic Palestine, with a continuous presence in the region that predates the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.
- The Nakba: The Nakba, meaning "catastrophe" in Arabic, is a pivotal event in Palestinian history. It refers to the displacement and dispossession of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians during the creation of Israel in 1948, which is a central point of historical trauma and memory.
- Occupation and Displacement: Palestinians emphasize the ongoing Israeli occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip since 1967. The expansion of Israeli settlements in these territories and the construction of a separation barrier are issues that have resulted in the displacement of Palestinian communities.
- Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza: The Gaza Strip, often described as the world's largest open-air prison, has been subjected to a blockade since 2007. This blockade restricts the movement of people and goods, leading to dire humanitarian conditions, including inadequate access to essential services.
- Violence and Loss: Palestinians have endured decades of violence and loss, with civilians often bearing the brunt of conflicts in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. This has led to high civilian casualties and widespread destruction.
- Refugees and Right of Return: The issue of Palestinian refugees, with an estimated 5 million refugees worldwide, remains central. Palestinians emphasize their right of return, enshrined in UN General Assembly Resolution 194, as a fundamental demand and a connection to their ancestral lands.
- Role of International Law: Palestinians argue that international law supports their rights and demands. UN resolutions call for Israel's withdrawal from occupied territories and the establishment of a Palestinian state. The International Court of Justice has declared certain Israeli actions illegal.
- Quest for Self-Determination: At the heart of the Palestinian perspective is the quest for self-determination and statehood. Palestinians seek the establishment of an independent and sovereign Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, often favoring a two-state solution as the path to achieving these goals.
