Petition: Reclaim the True Palestinian Identity — End the Great Identity Theft!

Boston Evening Globe, May 1, 1948: “Arabs Invade Palestine.” In 1948, the world knew exactly who the invaders were. Only now do some pretend to forget.

Join the movement to restore historical truth and identity authenticity

⚠️ ATTENTION: Change.org removed our petition after a wave of coordinated complaints — a sign of how threatening truth can be to those who rely on erasing it. But censorship can’t rewrite history.

✅ Read the archived copy here: Reclaim the True Palestinian Identity — End the Great Identity Theft!

✍️ Below is the full text of the petition that Change.org tried to bury. Read it, share it, and stand against the erasure of Jewish and Israeli identity.


The Issue

For millennia, the land of Israel — also known as Palestine — has been the indigenous homeland of the Jewish people. However, in recent decades, the name “Palestinian” has been hijacked by anti-Zionist Arab propaganda to erase Jewish history and delegitimize Israel.

We refuse to accept this historical fraud. The time has come to reclaim the term “Palestinian” as part of Jewish and Israeli heritage and expose the greatest identity theft in modern history.


✅ We, the undersigned, endorse the Palestinian Identity Manifesto in its entirety, demanding that:

  • The name “Palestine” be officially recognized as part of Jewish history.
  • The term “Palestinian” be reclaimed as an Israeli and Jewish identity.
  • The world be educated about the true Palestinian heritage.

THE PALESTINIAN IDENTITY MANIFESTO


By signing this petition, I stand with the indigenous Palestinian people — the Jews — and with all loyal citizens of Israel in reclaiming their rightful heritage.

✡️ Palestine is Israel. Palestinians are Israelis. The Great Identity Theft Ends Today!

✅ We are calling on:

  • The Government of Israel — to officially recognize the term “Palestinian” as part of Jewish and Israeli heritage and challenge the false historical narrative.
  • International organizations (e.g., the UN, UNESCO, and the EU) — to stop legitimizing the fabricated Arab-Palestinian identity and acknowledge the true historical connection of the Jewish people to the name.
  • Global media and educational institutions — to correct the false narrative that distorts Jewish history and promotes anti-Zionist propaganda.
  • All people of conscience — to stand with the indigenous Palestinian people — the Jews — and with all loyal citizens of Israel in reclaiming their rightful heritage.
  • The world be educated about the true Palestinian heritage.

⚠️ The original petition may be gone — but its message lives on. We call on Israel, the UN, the global media, and all truth-seeking individuals to stop legitimizing the lie.
