The Israeli occupation relentlessly waged its psychological war against Arabs in general, and against Palestinians in particular. This war started in the first Zionist conference, which focused on waging a psychological war to gather all the Jews in the world in Palestine taking advantage of Belfour’s promise. This kind of war goes along with the racial and aggressive Israeli ideology which uses on the Israeli psychological war as way to establish the state of Israel urging Palestinians to immigrate by using invitation and intimidation. This can be done by following two methods. The first one is by encouraging Palestinians to immigrate and work abroad to guarantee that they will never get back. The second one is by terrorizing them before and after the establishment of the Israeli state by committing massacres such as Kufr Qasim, Der Yaseen and Jenin camp massacre. In addition, in the last war, which was waged against Gaza, the Israelis used internationally forbidden weapons such as white phosphorus.
