Myths database
Welcome to the Decolonize Palestine myths database. Here you will find a continuously updated list of some of the most prominent myths and talking-points related to the Palestinian question, as well as their debunking.
We stress that these articles are not designed to teach you how to argue or manipulate your audience. That dubious distinction is relegated to Hasbara fellowships and manuals. Instead, we believe that light is the best disinfectant, and that when taken as a whole the historical record speaks for itself.
While we provide debunkings for these myths and talking points, it should be understood that they cannot account for everything. This is why we also provide a “further reading” section at the end of each article, so that you can explore these topics in a more free and comprehensive manner.
