Before being a problem, conflict or tragic reverse of the State of Israel, Palestine was simply Palestine, which is an obvious fact, but a silenced and not by chance. With clear writing and precise documentation, Teresa Aranguren unfolds before our eyes the origin of what has been called the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. From its origins, in the late nineteenth century with the birth of Zionism, to the ongoing genocide perpetrated by the State of Israel. And it begins with what we would consider today a tremendous hoax, of enormous effectiveness because, despite the denial of the facts, it remains valid: “A land without people for a people without land”.
Teresa Aranguren began her career as a journalist in 1971. In 1981 he was a correspondent for Mundo Obrero covering the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, and also worked for the magazine Interviú or the newspaper El Independiente covering the Iran-Iraq war in Tehran. For 15 years (since 1989) she was the Middle East envoy of Telemadrid, covering the successive Gulf wars, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the Balkan war. He has published the books Palestina: El hilo de la memoria, Olivo Roto: Escenas de la ocupación and, together with the photographer Sandra Barrilaro and the Palestinian writers Bichara Jader and John Mansour, Contra el olvido, una memoria fotográfica de Palestina antes de la Nakba.
