Museum of An Extinct Race: A People formerly Known as Palestinians

"We must expel Arabs and take their places." David Ben Gurion l937

There is a living museum in Israel called the Museum of An Extinct Race. The Israeli government will commemorate the memory of a nearly extinct race, a people formerly known as Palestinians (PFKP), who had been living in the fatherland, Eretz Israel, from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River. These primitive folks lived on farms and cities, before the rightful owners, the Jewish people, returned after a two thousand year absence. The Museum of an Extinct Race is another example of the leadership of Israeli in addressing the so-called Palestinian issue and coming to a final solution.
First, it is necessary to correct some misperceptions of these so-called Palestinians. As Prime Minster Golda Meir said, "There is no such thing as a Palestinian people... It is not as if we came and threw them out and took their country. They didn't exist." The anti-Zionist conspiracy has endeavored to undermine the state of Israel, a state founded on the moral bedrock of the old Jewish testament. Though the Israeli flag has a Star of David, the symbol of Judaism, nevertheless, we do not intentionally exclude Muslims. The sooner Muslim Arabs adhere to our European Jewish values the quicker they can be fully incorporated into the greater Zionist vision of the state of Israel, and finally put to rest this, frankly, silly notion of this so called people – Palestinians. Otherwise, in the words of David Ben Gurion our founding Prime Minister, “We must drive them out.” Or, more vividly by Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, “The Palestinians …crushed like grasshoppers ... heads smashed against the boulders and walls.” How can the world or any reasonable person argue with such moral clarity? Nevertheless, the Museum of Extinct Species takes a more enlightened perspective and wishes to preserve the memory of this culture. In as much as Israel has and continues to eradicate the blight of Muslim communities, we wish to preserve the Oriental je ne sais quoi so endearing to tourists.
The term PFKP, people formerly known as Palestinians, eliminates the tedious pretensions of identity and ownership. By eliminating the confusing Muslim names where virtually everyone is Mohamed or Ali, we assigned numbers to them, PFKP 1, PFKP 2, and so forth, and give each a small tattoo for record keeping. The Museum of an Extinct Race is a sure path to a final solution to the Palestinian issue by eliminating the remotest pretension of a “Palestinian Identity.” As Menachem Begin, the Nobel Peace Prize winner said, “There can be no Jewish state without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands.”
The germ of the project began when our leader Alfred Rosenberg created Hohe Schule or the Academy, a center of education to lay the foundation for this museum and an institution to study the PFKPs. The institution serves as a repository for their books, rugs, and primitive artwork. The PFKPs were mostly agrarian bumpkins and their Muslim ideology of fatalism was a hindrance to their development and failure to adapt to the modern industrial age of capitalism. This underscores some of the arguments of Social Darwinism that some races are inherently more successful than others.
The museum will view how these Arabs came to settle in the greater Levant and for centuries remained in the region, until the return of the Jewish people to their ancestral homes after 2,000 years. Though there was some displacement and readjustment with PFKPs in ancestral villages, and according to the biblical maps these were Jewish settlements or at least had Jewish place names. We acknowledge what David Ben Gurion had said, “There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population."
In the great liberation of historic Israel in l948, many of these PFKPs fled before the Anschluss to Lebanon and their true homes in Arabic countries. This was a blessing and it gave the rightful Jewish owners a chance to reclaim this land, and after all, as the chosen people, a two thousand year history of absence is a trifle.
The museum will also correct the absurd world-view that the rightful annexation of the land from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River south to the Negev, to the Golan Heights, was wrong. With the final removal of the Arabs from Jerusalem, the full rightful occupation of all of the area to the west Bank, the deportation of unruly and ungrateful Arabs to Jordan or wherever this scourge came from. As Jerusalem is cleared of the last remnants of the PFKPs, they will realize the superior culture and ontogenetic imperative of the Jewish people to achieve an ethnic purity. The Museum of an Extinct Race will be a fitting tribute to the policies of Israel in dealing with PFKPs, or as our scholars have called it “Arabfrage”, the Arab Question. There had been discussions of deporting the remnant people to Madagascar or elsewhere in Africa more accommodating to their Arabic disposition; yet, we wish to preserve the memory of their sejour. For example, the Muslim quarter in old Jaffa, is very charming without the clutter of Muslims, and their old schools and buildings make very chic bistros.
Imagine the possibilities as we contemplate a Final Solution to the thorny Arab Problem. Yes, the ethnic purity of the Israeli homeland will be a profound step forward, and a fitting memorial is this Museum of an Extinct Race.
