a letter to israeli citizens

march 9 2025

dear citizen

i am not either a muslim, nor a palestinian.

i am not either a jew, nor an israeli.

i therefore have no motivation to be either biased or unfair in this book.

if there appears to be any bias in this book, it is simply because of the extensive knowledge of the conflict i have gained over the past seventeen months.

this book is simply largely the result of eight months of discussion and research, followed by nine months of investigation, reading, watching and listening to both sides, researching, calculating statistical comparisons, collating, writing, design, photo optimisation and book presentation.

i do not expect you to necessarily just take my word for the alleged facts and truth presented in this book. please feel free to fact-check and google my shared facts and comments to check they are true. in such a large book, it is somewhat inevitable that there will be a few inaccuracies, as i do not claim to be an expert on every single aspect of the israel-palestine conflict.

please open your eyes and ears to the true facts and evidence, not just what you hear from zionists and the zionist media. watch and listen to al jazeera, and read your haaretz newspaper, and then - if you wish - conscientiously fact check to verify that they always tell the truth, unlike what you were told by your government.

almost everything you hear and read from your own government, and the i.d.f., is either a lie or a distortion of the truth. but by all means, do not just take my word for it - research and fact check on independent, palestinian and pro-palestinian news and factual websites, blogs and x accounts, etc.

if you are a zionist jew, please kindly down, listen very carefully and politely discuss with non-zionist and ex-zionists jews.

if you are a secular zionist, and not religious, please kindly challenge yourself to fully take onboard the true facts and evidence, and act accordingly. feel free to hate me, and rant at my words and discoveries, but please do not let yourself hate the truth.

if you are an israeli of another religion, please check the actual facts and evidence, and ask yourself if what is being done and said in your name is moral and right, and not conducive to peace with your surrounding nations.

if you are a christian zionist, please deeply re-think whether the teachings of jesus christ and the apostle paul, james and john morally fit with the repeatedly evidenced actions and words of the israeli government, i.d.f and i.a.f.

i know from my own experience how difficult it can be to challenge a long-held belief mindset and break out of a cultish bubble.

may yhwh/allah, nature, or the universe, enlighten your knowledge and understanding, and lead you on the right path to love, truth, compassion, justice and ultimate peace with the nations around you.

thank you for listening.

yours sincerely

aaron paul
