Dozens of pro-Israel activists held a “Nakba Day Party” at Tel-Aviv University across from the annual Nakba Day ceremony held by Arab and far-Left students at the university.

‘Nakba’ is Arabic for ‘catastrophe.’ Nakba Day, observed annually by anti-Israel elements on May 15, the anniversary of the declaration of the independence of the State of Israel, commemorates the “catastrophe” of the establishment of the modern Jewish state.

The party, organized by the Zionist organization Im Tirtzu, featured blaring Israeli music by DJ Asaf Hartal, flags, drums, and free drinks distributed by the organization.

According to Im Tirtzu, the goal of the Zionist party was to celebrate the founding of the State of Israel and to call out the “lies of the Nakba.”

The activists also brought a 12-by-6-foot sign with the words “Nakba Nonsense“ and distributed books titled “The Jewish People’s Rights to the Land of Israel.”

Additional Nakba Day ceremonies were held across Israel, including one at Jerusalem’s Hebrew University that was also met with a “Nakba Day Party” by Im Tirtzu activists.

Im Tirtzu CEO Matan Peleg called the Nakba an “obscene historical distortion.”

“If the Jewish community in Israel would have lost the war, the Holocaust would have been continued by Haj Amin al-Husseini and his anti-Semitic thugs,” Peleg stated.

It is well documented that Al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem, had a close relationship with Hitler and encouraged the Nazi genocide.

“The fact that Israeli universities provide a platform for those who mourn the failed attempt to annihilate the Jews shows the backwards state of Israeli academia,” Peleg added.
