We were planning to visit the village of Ras ‘Ein al-’Auja in the northern West Bank. But three weeks before the trip, all 700 residents of the village fled due to violence from nearby settlers. When we drove through the ruined remains of the village, we saw groups of Israeli settlers having a picnic.
We were able to visit the village Fasa’il al-Wusta in the Jordan Valley. When we visited, six out of eight families had fled. Two weeks later, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) demolished the home of the family we visited. Now only one of those families is left.
What are you talking about? From star to finish, the Nazis had almost a solid 12 years in power, and that’s not including the several years they built power beforehand. There was nothing “quick” about it.
Fascism has always had a slow creep into power and has always taken a long time to root it out wherever it has been. Remember Victor Orban? And how long it took to get him out of power?
