Husam Zomlot ne London mein ek historic gesture diya jab Palestinian flag officially raise hua 🇵🇸✨. Yeh ceremony UK govt ke us announcement ke baad hui jisme September 22, 2025 ko Britain ne formally Palestine ko recognise kiya. Media headlines ne ise “historic” kaha, lekin asal story yeh hai ke yeh move sirf ek late aur hollow symbolism lagta hai — kyunki century se zyada arse se Britain khud Palestine ki dispossession aur violence ka hissa raha hai.
Britain ka colonial role koi nayi kahani nahi hai. 1917 ka Balfour Declaration yad karein, jahan Palestine ki zameen Zionist movement ko “promise” kar di gayi thi, bina Palestinians ki marzi ke. JFK ne decades baad kaha tha: “Palestine was hardly Britain’s to give away.” Lekin give away ho gaya — immigration facilitate ki gayi, Zionist militias ko arm kiya gaya, aur Palestinians ko systematically erase kiya gaya.
Nakba 1948 iska peak tha — 750,000+ Palestinians apne gharon se nikale gaye, 500 se zyada villages destroy kar diye gaye. Britain aur uske Western allies ne Israel ko openly back kiya aur Palestinians ko stateless chhod diya. Yeh betrayal ek generation nahi, balki har generation ke liye continue hua.
Ab jab UK ne 2025 mein Palestine ko recognise kiya, toh asal reason moral awakening nahi tha — balki global outrage aur street pressure tha. Gaza pe 2024–25 ke assault mein 120,000 se zyada Palestinians shaheed hue, entire neighborhoods wipe out ho gaye, hospitals destroy, aur millions displaced. London se le kar Cape Town tak protests ne West ko forced kiya ke apni complicity face karein.
Lekin sawaal yeh hai: recognition ka matlab kya jab Palestine ka map hi tod diya gaya hai? Gaza ruins mein hai, West Bank 750+ checkpoints aur illegal settlements ke beech choke hai, aur East Jerusalem annex ho chuka hai. UK ka “recognition” sirf ek symbolic drama lagta hai — justice ke baghair recognition is nothing.
Britain ka asli debt sirf ek statement se clear nahi hota. Isne colonial project design kiya tha, isliye ab zimmedari bhi leni hogi:
- Arms sales aur trade Israel ke saath immediately band karein.
- Reparations aur aid Palestinians ko mile.
- ICC aur international legal actions support karein taake war crimes accountability ho.
Otherwise, yeh step sirf political theatre hai.
Palestine ka struggle recognition ka nahi, balki liberation aur dignity ka hai. Aur Britain ke liye asal test yeh hai: kya woh finally apne century-long betrayal ko admit karega aur genuine justice deliver karega? Sirf tabhi recognition ka koi matlab ho sakta hai.
