The Palestine Jewish Colonization Association
This 1936 telegram from the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association exhibits how some people involved in the immigration of Jews to the Holy Land felt that it was a colonization effort.

Introduction
The Jewish perspective,
grounded in Jewish values
of truth and justice,
provides a clear
path to peace.
PEACEFUL PALESTINE
Historical and first-hand
accounts of who the
Palestinian people are
do not fit the stereotype
seen in the media.
CREATION OF STATE
During the 30 years
leading up to the creation
of Israel in 1948, increasing
tensions and population
shifts set the stage for
further conflict.
TERROR + CONFLICTS
Previously a peaceful
region, Palestine would
see far more violence,
including terror attacks
by both Arab and
Jewish groups.
CIVIL RIGHTS
Non-violent and peaceful
protest are a means of
action taken by Palestinians,
alongside Israeli as well as
international activists.
CONCLUSION
Support peace with justice
for our Israeli and Palestinian
brothers and sisters.
