theHRguyTIL: How The Founder Of Zionism, Theodor Herzl, Planned on Eradicating Palestinians as Early as 1890
The map of “Greater Israel” as laid out by Theodor Hertzl.
Looks a lot like a list of all the countries Israel has been picking a fight with recently, huh?
I wonder why??
I love the arbitrarily straight line through Kuwait and Saudi. It looks like they were real keen to follow the Euphrates but then just kind of gave up just before the gulf, claimed a third of Kuwait and then just drew a line straight to the red sea and and arbitrary part of Egypt …
Looks to me like they’re juet vaguely aiming for the “greener” parts of Saudi Arabia, where there happen to be 3 national parks, and avoiding the desert-only bits which they can’t be bothered trying to manage (see: Dune)
There is something very satisfying to me about the borders but i think that’s just because they chose rivers as boundaries AND added in that sharp geometric line
gedaliyahNope. This map, according to the www.middleeasteye.net/…/what-greater-israel it comes from, is constructed (incorrectly) based on a biblical reference (Gen 15:18). Herzl references it in his diary as part of a conversation brought up by someone else.
Herzl himself famously refused to define such borders.
except Egypt.
