Palestinians are 'stateless' but united by longing for peace, say historians_我的网站
一 | The Palestinian people make up one of the largest refugee groups in the world, often forced off their land or pushed to flee amid ongoing conflict in the region, according to the United Nations.They are stateless, their identity not defined by specific borders, but rather tied together by a collective longing for a place to call home. Their existence has long been traded and transferred by different ruling powers throughout their history, leaving their fate hanging in the balance.Palestinians are a diverse, multi-religious and multicultural group of roughly 14 million people internationally who trace their roots back to what is now known as the Israeli-Palestinian region of the Middle East.Many of them no longer remain there, spread across the globe. Those who remain in the Palestinian territory of Gaza have been under blockade, with Israel controlling nearly everything that comes in and out of the region, including food, fuel and people, and Egypt controlling Gaza’s southern border.Palestinians have been described as a "young society," with people between 15 and 29 years old comprising 30% of the population, according to the United Nations Population Fund.Amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in the Middle East, Palestinians say they have been "dehumanized" and stereotyped amid the international backlash to Hamas' terrorist actions in Israel.In Gaza, at least 1,799 people have been killed in retaliatory strikes by Israel, with an estimated 7,388 more injured, numbers that are expected to climb. At least 1,300 people have been killed and 3,227 others have been injured in Israel from Hamas attacks.Palestinian historians add that the people's long history of being ignored, attacked and displaced has left many misconceptions about the population unaddressed – something they now hope to remedy."As soon as you identify with them as people – as ordinary human beings – you cannot do to them what's now being done to them right now," said Ussama Makdisi, a history professor at the University of California Berkeley.For example, support for the "Free Palestine" or liberation movement has historically been painted as antisemitic. Palestinian historians say this is another misperception.The fight for liberation, Makdisi said, is about being able to "live with dignity and equality, in a political and social and economic environment where they can thrive like any other people."According to the United Nations, 81% of the population in Gaza lives in poverty, with food insecurity plaguing 63% of Gaza citizens. The unemployment rate is 46.6%, and access to clean water and electricity remains at "crisis" levels of inaccessibility, the U.N. states."Liberation means living with equality, which everybody, I think, once they understand that, most people I would say agree with it,” says Makdisi. “It's exactly what we wish for any people in the world, any people."
'Struggle for liberation'
Despite the difficult circumstances facing Palestinians around the world and in Palestinian territories, they love life, added Yousef Munayyer, a Palestinian-American writer and political analyst."People are looking for ways in the most difficult of moments to celebrate the beauty of life, even under oppression," Munayyer said. "This does not make Palestinians unique. It just makes them as human as everybody else."All of the Palestinian scholars with whom ABC News spoke said the Palestinian passion for fighting to be able to live with dignity has stretched beyond the movement for their own people. Palestinians have been a prominent voice in grassroots activism internationally, including the 2020 anti-racism movement that began in the United States and spread overseas.The young population of Palestinians particularly has moved the needle on their community’s involvement in global social movements, historians say. Nassar believes it’s because younger generations believe their international causes are connected, united in dismantling longstanding systems of oppression.Palestinian resiliency
The Arabic idea of "sumud," or steadfastness, is a key part of how many Palestinians understand their collective identity, according to Maha Nassar, a history and Islamic studies professor at the University of Arizona. It highlights the near-universal call for liberation, freedom and equality among Palestinians existing in a region under constant conflict – a yearning for peace on Palestinian lands.Sumud can manifest in many ways. It could be as simple as proclaiming one's pride in their Palestinian heritage, or as complicated as grassroots organizing in social movements."Palestinians around the world have taken immense pride and gone to great lengths to ensure that their Palestinian culture and identity is not erased, just because their state does not yet exist," said Nassar.。 ミラノ・コルティナ五輪のカーリング男子決勝が21日（日本時間22日）に行われ、カナダが英国に9-6で勝利し、3大会ぶりに金メダルを獲得した。“不正投球”疑惑に揺れたなかでの栄冠に、7位だったドイツのメディアも注目している。【画像】「明らかにズルしている」 カーリング不正疑惑の決定的瞬間 今大会のカーリングは前代未聞の事態に揺れた。
二 | 騒動の発端となったのは、13日（同14日）に行われた男子1次リーグのカナダ－スウェーデン戦での出来事。カナダのマーク・ケネディがストーンを投じた際、一度ストーンを離した後に指で押す「ダブルタッチ」の反則があったのではないかとして、スウェーデン側が申告。カナダ側は認めずに反論し、口論に発展した。 その後、波紋が広がり続けるなかで、新たに16日のチェコ戦でカナダ主将ブラッド・ジェイコブスにも不正投球疑惑が浮上。厳しい視線が注がれるなかで、カナダは頂点へと駆け上がった。
三 | この事態に、7位で大会を終えたドイツの国内メディアも注目。スポーツ総合サイト「Sportal.de」は「インチキ騒動のカナダ、金メダルで締めくくり」と伝え、ニュース専門局「ntv」も「不正行為、悪態、五輪チャンピオン カーリングの見出しに躍ったチームが金をもぎ取る」などと報じた。
四 | 一般紙「ターゲス・シュピーゲル」も「ケネディの不正騒動の後、カナダがカーリング金メダル」「五輪で大きな騒動に」などと脚光。さらに、お隣オーストリアの公共放送「ORF」も「不正疑惑で注目を集めたカナダだったが、2度目の五輪チャンピオンに」と伝えていた。 カナダ・アルバータ州の新聞「エドモントン・ジャーナル」は試合後、カナダ主将ブラッド・ジェイコブスのコメントを紹介。「今週、我々が経験したことは、おそらく98％の人々は心を折られ、98％のカーリングチームを崩壊させていただろう」「それらを乗り越え、互いを支え合って耐え抜いたことは、本当に、本当に特別なことだ」などと語っていた。
