  • Nazi Germany didn’t have a right to exist, nor did Apartheid South Africa, nor Rhodesia.

    People have a right to exist.

    Apartheid has no right to exist. Genocide has no right to exist. Ethnic cleansing has no right to exist.

    You can either prioritize that people have a right to exist, or that an ethnosupremacist state committed to ethnic cleansing of native populations has the right to exist.

    That is the situation. You are clearly choosing the latter. Maybe because there’s something in particular about the people being exterminated that you especially don’t like but aren’t willing to say in public?





  • Israel is just a new face on conflict that is ancient.

    No, that’s a bullshit and an insidious myth used to justify and normalize the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians

    • The Birth of Israel Myths and Realities - Simha Flapan

    The Zionists not only sought to colonize Palestine but, as Pappe shows, “…it also hoped to secularize the Jewish people, to invent the ‘new Jew’ in antithesis to the religious Orthodox Jews of Europe… The Orthodox Jew was ridiculed by the Zionists, and was viewed as someone who could only be redeemed through hard work in Palestine… The role of the Bible within Jewish life offered one further clear difference between Judaism and Zionism… the Bible provided ‘the myth for our right over the land.’ It was in the Bible that they read stories about Hebrew farmers, shepherds, kings, and wars, which they appropriated as describing the ancient golden era of their nation’s birth. Returning to the land meant coming back to become farmers , shepherds and kings. Thus, they found themselves faced with a challenging paradox, for they wanted both to secularize Jewish life and to use the Bible as a publication for colonizing Palestine. In other words, though they did not believe in God, He had nonetheless promised them Palestine.”

    In reality, Pappe believes, “…the takeover of the West Bank in particular, with its ancient biblical sights, was a Zionist aim even before 1948 and it fitted the logic of the Zionist project as a whole. This logic can be summarized as the wish to take over as much of Palestine as possible with as few Palestinians as possible… After the occupation, the new ruler confined the Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in an impossible limbo: they were neither refugees nor citizens—they were, and still are, citizenless inhabitants. They were inmates, and in many respects still are, of a huge prison in which they have no civil, and human rights and no impact on their future. The world tolerates this situation because Israel claims —and the claim was never challenged until recently—that the situation is temporary…Israel is still incarcerating a third generation of Palestinians…and depicting these mega-prisons as temporary…”




  • Hezbollah is a proscribed terrorist organisation

    By who? The same Western Countries who are funding an apartheid ethnosupremacist state committing genocide and suppressing any resistance. They also labeled the IRA (What do you think the name Kneecap comes from), the FLN, the Vietcong, the ANC as proscribed terrorist organizations. They always label resistance groups against colonialism as terrorists. It doesn’t mean shit.

    Hezbollah is also a prominent party within Lebanon’s parliamentary system, and only exists out of armed resistance against the settler colonialist actions of Israel within Lebanon.


  • You’re arguing with people I have tagged Zionist and Liberal; who have more of an issue with a slight increase in the price of global shipping, over one of the poorest countries who have been living under a US-Saudi genocide, implementing a blockade on trade with Israel for committing genocide.

    The blockade ended during the ceasefire, that’s all it takes to end the blockade. These people don’t have smoke for the unjust blockades America does like on Cuba either. A blockade to apply economic penalties to a country for committing genocide is moral and just. Just as it would’ve been to blockade trade with Nazi Germany.

    Plus the US and Israel are bombing Yemeni civilians
