Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Few beings want somebody to identify them as antisemitic; the Axis was antisemitic as well, and that can not only create guilt by association but also discredit the accused in the eyes of many.

Personally, I think that many capitalists are highly protective of the Zionist project because it keeps Jews separate from the rest of the world, which was Zionism’s original goal anyway. Capitalist gentiles simply pretend that it’s a humanistic or altruistic endeavour because that is easier to sell to the masses than explicit segregation.

But really, capitalist gentiles don’t want thousands of Jews and any potential competitors among them suddenly seeking refuge in their domains, using their public resources. They want Jews to stay under an ethnonationalist and bellicist régime, where it’s dangerous.
