Palestinians are 'stateless' but united by longing for peace, say historians_我的网站

特斯拉股价在隔夜再度大幅下跌逾6%，因马斯克表示，在全球经济疲软的情况下，这家电动汽车制造商获得需求“有点困难”。

二 |     The Palestinian people make up one of the largest refugee groups in the world, often forced off their land or pushed to flee amid ongoing conflict in the region, according to the United Nations.They are stateless, their identity not defined by specific borders, but rather tied together by a collective longing for a place to call home. Their existence has long been traded and transferred by different ruling powers throughout their history, leaving their fate hanging in the balance.Palestinians are a diverse, multi-religious and multicultural group of roughly 14 million people internationally who trace their roots back to what is now known as the Israeli-Palestinian region of the Middle East.Many of them no longer remain there, spread across the globe. Those who remain in the Palestinian territory of Gaza have been under blockade, with Israel controlling nearly everything that comes in and out of the region, including food, fuel and people, and Egypt controlling Gaza’s southern border.Palestinians have been described as a "young society," with people between 15 and 29 years old comprising 30% of the population, according to the United Nations Population Fund.Amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in the Middle East, Palestinians say they have been "dehumanized" and stereotyped amid the international backlash to Hamas' terrorist actions in Israel.In Gaza, at least 1,799 people have been killed in retaliatory strikes by Israel, with an estimated 7,388 more injured, numbers that are expected to climb. At least 1,300 people have been killed and 3,227 others have been injured in Israel from Hamas attacks.Palestinian historians add that the people's long history of being ignored, attacked and displaced has left many misconceptions about the population unaddressed – something they now hope to remedy."As soon as you identify with them as people – as ordinary human beings – you cannot do to them what's now being done to them right now," said Ussama Makdisi, a history professor at the University of California Berkeley.For example, support for the "Free Palestine" or liberation movement has historically been painted as antisemitic. Palestinian historians say this is another misperception.The fight for liberation, Makdisi said, is about being able to "live with dignity and equality, in a political and social and economic environment where they can thrive like any other people."According to the United Nations, 81% of the population in Gaza lives in poverty, with food insecurity plaguing 63% of Gaza citizens. The unemployment rate is 46.6%, and access to clean water and electricity remains at "crisis" levels of inaccessibility, the U.N. states."Liberation means living with equality, which everybody, I think, once they understand that, most people I would say agree with it,” says Makdisi. “It's exactly what we wish for any people in the world, any people."

'Struggle for liberation'

Despite the difficult circumstances facing Palestinians around the world and in Palestinian territories, they love life, added Yousef Munayyer, a Palestinian-American writer and political analyst."People are looking for ways in the most difficult of moments to celebrate the beauty of life, even under oppression," Munayyer said. "This does not make Palestinians unique. It just makes them as human as everybody else."All of the Palestinian scholars with whom ABC News spoke said the Palestinian passion for fighting to be able to live with dignity has stretched beyond the movement for their own people. Palestinians have been a prominent voice in grassroots activism internationally, including the 2020 anti-racism movement that began in the United States and spread overseas.The young population of Palestinians particularly has moved the needle on their community’s involvement in global social movements, historians say. Nassar believes it’s because younger generations believe their international causes are connected, united in dismantling longstanding systems of oppression.

Palestinian resiliency

The Arabic idea of "sumud," or steadfastness, is a key part of how many Palestinians understand their collective identity, according to Maha Nassar, a history and Islamic studies professor at the University of Arizona. It highlights the near-universal call for liberation, freedom and equality among Palestinians existing in a region under constant conflict – a yearning for peace on Palestinian lands.Sumud can manifest in many ways. It could be as simple as proclaiming one's pride in their Palestinian heritage, or as complicated as grassroots organizing in social movements."Palestinians around the world have taken immense pride and gone to great lengths to ensure that their Palestinian culture and identity is not erased, just because their state does not yet exist," said Nassar.。

三 | 马斯克预计，由于运输能力有限，特斯拉将无法实现年度交付目标。不过他同时也表示，其当前季度的“需求非常好”。由于财报业绩未达预期和对未来需求展望较谨慎，华尔街多名分析师周四下调了对该公司的目标价。事实上，这已非马斯克首度对经济衰退的前景发表看法。早在今年5月时，马斯克就曾表示美国经济“很可能”已处于衰退。当时在谈及经济衰退可能的持续时间时，马斯克表示，“这可能会是一段艰难的日子，我不确定衰退的持续时间，也许是一年，也许是12-18个月。”批评美联储值得一提的是，在本周三特斯拉的财报电话会议上，马斯克还不同寻常地对美联储颇有微词。目前，美联储正在进行数十年来最激进的加息行动，以遏制失控的通胀。马斯克表示，美联储正在过高、过快地提高利率。他甚至看到经济在部分领域存在通缩的迹象。马斯克称，尽管特斯拉公司发现一些领域的价格仍在上涨，但总体而言，价格下跌的地方已经比上涨的多。“从长远来看，大宗商品的价格已经下跌了很多。尽管在有些领域，例如电池级锂的价格仍然很高。”马斯克表示，美联储忽略了这些大宗商品价格的最新变化。“如果你从后视镜看出去，美联储的决定是有意义的，但如果你从前挡风玻璃看出去，就没有任何意义。他们应该从前挡风玻璃看事情。”除了马斯克外，近期不少知名人士也对经济衰退的前景发出过警告。例如，仅次于马斯克的全球第二大富豪、亚马逊创始人贝佐斯日前就警告称，美国经济可能正走向衰退，并建议美国人准备好迎接暴风雨。摩根大通首席执行官杰米·戴蒙近期也表示，形势“非常、非常严峻”，美国经济可能在未来6个月内陷入衰退。
