The adoption of complete antinormalization, drawn directly from the thawabit, signals that nearly all Palestinian activism has been devoured by the Neo-Jihadist purity spiral in the west that still cheers on Hamas for killing so many peaceniks on 10/7. And like all purity spirals, it must now finish running its course into the ground.
They don’t want resolution. Every BDS supporter wants more war, wants genocide of 7.7 million Israeli Jews and they’re willing to fight to the last Palestinian from afar. Luxury beliefs of retarded people who are in the antizionist genocidal hate movement.
Defenders of the Palestinian people must focus on the present brutal disastrous realities right now before us, and what realistic options are before the Palestinian people NOW. It is pointless to yearn for a bygone past that will never return.
That begins with the fact that neither Israel nor the Jews are going away, anymore than the United States and all non-Indigenous people are going to leave the U.S.
Israel is no longer only a colonial settler state but also a people, just as that became true of the United States, or the whites in South Africa, and many other such nations. Obviously that does not hold true for the colonial occupation of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
It is also undeniable that the Palestinians cannot ever militarily defeat Israel. Ever. No matter how brave and dignified the Palestinian people may be they can never militarily overcome Israel. And no one is going to “rescue” them. That means facing the cold-blooded truth of reality, not impossible dreams or desires.
Seventy-eight years of armed struggle have been a catastrophic disaster that has only strengthened Israel and hurt the Palestinians, every single time. No further proof is required than the genocidal horror committed by Israel in Gaza in response to Hamas’s criminal attack on October 7, 2023.
It is also beyond dispute that there will never be a “Two-state Solution.” Israel never had any intention of ever permitting this, as is clear from the last 33 years, and now with the Hamas October 7 attack any such questions have been forever settled. To continue to raise the idea of a separate Palestinian state or Bantustan is not only impossible but it is a cruel trap.
…..
What Are the Options? — A Democratic and Secular nation for ALL: Jews and Palestinians.
Only an alliance of Jewish and Palestinian workers can lead the struggle of the Jewish and Palestinian peoples to bring down the Israeli apartheid regime, and establish a single "Democratic and Secular nation for ALL: Jews and Palestinians."
The Palestinians on their own can never accomplish that, much less from without Israel.
If we accept these facts then the only course of action that has even a remote possibility of advancing the struggle for national democracy and equality must do the following:
1. The Palestinians should renounce all armed struggle and publicly destroy all their useless peashooter weapons, down to the last pistol. Killing a few IDF soldiers is not the path to overthrowing Israel. The weapons in the hands of the bourgeois thugs of Hamas and the corrupt PLO only serve the interests of Israel. Both Hamas and other such outfits as well as the PA are de facto enemies of the Palestinian people and tools of Israel. They are death traps. For good reason Israel helped create and promote Hamas to serve the interests of Israel. Any further violence will only strengthen Israel and worsen the horrific divisions between the two peoples, to the detriment of the Palestinians above all.
2. New organizations must be built that adopt an explicit principled position against all anti-Semitism, and fight it implacably. How else to build unity? Obviously the same holds true for Jews who desire a democratic and secular united nation. Only by doing this do they have any chance of overcoming the horror of mutual reactionary bourgeois hatreds, and the possibility of winning over very distrustful Jews, enraged by the Hamas pogrom, and overcoming the reactionary Islamist anti-Semetic poison among the Palestinian masses.
3. Completely new organizations must be forged, composed of Jews and Palestinians, as equals, at every level, from their political program to the leadership and the membership. This has never been done before but now we have the magnificent example of anti-Zionist Jews helping to lead international solidarity with the Palestinians for the first time in 75 years, and within Israel joint Jewish and Palestinian initiatives. It is not inconceivable.
4. A joint non-violent mass movement of Jews and Palestinians, always united in every action, to engage in a revolutionary democratic mass struggle for civil rights must be built to fight for democratic demands. Only thus can the brutal violence of the Israeli state and its paramilitary death settlers death squads be neutralized. This should emulate the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, or the nonviolent movement for Indian Independence.
…..
Now for the hardest part for most to contemplate.
How can millions of Palestinians and Jews build a joint movement while separated by barbed wire and guns that prevent almost any contact whatsoever other than bullets?
They can't at first. The first step will be the steps enumerated above and the development of a new program. Only by those very concrete acts by the Palestinians can a hand be extended across the barrier, and expect any Jews to grasp it.
Then the unimaginable must be embraced.
As a matter of fact, the 2 million Palestinians who are citizens of Israel, even while living under apartheid-like conditions still have relatively greater rights, freedom of movement, ability to express themselves and the chance to forge unity with anti-Zionist Jews, and engage in joint actions.
The Palestinians trapped under IDF military occupation and dictatorship have none of those possibilities. They are being slaughtered in Gaza and slowly but inexorably strangled on the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
Shocking as it might seem I see no other road forward than to push to become part of Israel.
Undoubtedly the first reaction of most Palestinians and their supporters will be to scream: TRAITOR!
However, “politics is the art of the possible” no matter how distasteful that may seem, when illusions are shattered. Simply put there is no other road forward.
If I seriously thought there existed any other option I would consider it. I have for decades. All I hear is: keep doing more of the same disastrous failures.
All of what is today Palestine should be incorporated with all Palestinians into Israel. There is no possible way forward than to accept that reality.
Perhaps the best evidence of the correctness of such a course would be the inevitable total hostility by the right-wing Zionists to such a perspective. They fully recognize the revolutionary democratic danger to the Zionist apartheid regime of unity of Jews and Palestinians.
This would have to be an appeal to the Jewish people, not the regime.
Some will argue that the Zionists will never permit it. That may be true, but if the Palestinians can win over masses of Jewish people that may be imposed on the regime.
It can be argued that it is utopian. Perhaps it can't be accomplished, and the Palestinians will be historically annihilated like so many peoples through history, but no one can offer any other possible way forward. What is more “utopian” is the vain illusion that Israel can be overthrown and will just disappear. That is a cruel lie. Surely the Palestinians deserve a fighting chance of a perspective rather than nihilist defeat and extinction under the banner of self-defeat such as the utterly counterproductive sectarian BDS campaign.
Once the Jewish and Palestinian working people together bring to an end the Zionist nightmare then those free and united people will decide what to call their Democratic and Secular nation.
...
Short of this the utter genocidal annihilation of the Palestinian people will be the only result, and as horrifying as it is to contemplate, it is already happening.
I see. You know they say same thing about every revolutionary program or struggle. Impossiblex, they say.
Real revolutionaries are guided by optimism and a very realistic assessment of the possibilities at any game ven moment. Both where we are but also where we can go. They offer a road forward.
In fact there are already Jews in Israel who are uniting with Palestinians under very difficult circumstances to jointly struggle against the rightist Israeli regime and for a Democratic and Secular nation. So you are wrong. Obviously they are a small minority but that is how all struggles begin.
More importantly, what road forward do you propose for the Palestinian people? What is your program of struggle? Just more of the same self-defeating catastrophe? Endless defeats and death? No hope, no optimism?
Too many purported "friends" of the Palestinians prefer them just as victims and martyrs, and refuse to consider any way out of the death trap. That is no service to the Palestinians. All to the contrary. It only ensures the eventual destruction of the Palestinian people, which is where they are heading now, like the Circassians, reduced to a diaspora and then to historic dust. Is that what you prefer?
I prefer to face reality and lay out a way and a program forwards out of the present hell.
Endlessly wallowing in hate, betrayed by the reactionary Hamas death cult that was created by Israel, offers only more defeats and destruction.
1. Majority of Palestinians don't want a secular nation. Unless you have accurate polling and studies showing otherwise. The PA just enshrined the supremacy of Shariah law.
2. There have always been Jews pushing a binational solution even before 1948. Arabs keep showing they don't want it.
3. Palestinians and supporters want another 1948 where they succeed in their War of Extermination. October 8th, 2023 showed that.
4. The Palestinians willingly let themselves be used as pawns: Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, USSR, Russia, and now Iran. Their masters don't give two shits about them and never will.
5. Some Palestinians would call you a racist for saying Israel created Hamas and deny that Palestinians had the agency and skill to create an organization they deem successful and righteous.
6. New rule just dropped: Pro-Palestinians say that now no state has the right to exist.
1. The majority of Israelis don't want a secular nation. Israel passed a law defining Israel as a “Jewish state” enshrining Jewish supremacy and ethno-religious apartheid. It is the antithesis of democracy.
2. There have always been Palestinians seeking coexistence. Israelis keep showing they don't want it. Especially after the Oslo Accords, which were intentionally sabotaged by Israel, again and again.
3. Zionists and supporters want another 1948 Nakba where they succeed in their War of Extermination. October 8th, 2023 to April 2026 showed that, and as we see daily right now on the West Bank and Gaza with Zionist-KKK settler terrorism backed by the IDF and the fascist Ben Gvir police.
4. The Israeli government willingly let themselves be used as pawns and hired killers by the United States all around the world. Israel serves as mercenaries for the bloodthirsty U.S. rulers
That's why Israel supported the pro-Nazi Apartheid regime South Africa both militarily (including the mutual nuclear weapons programs) and economically. It was the apartheid regime that supplied Israel with the uranium for its nuclear weapons. The US used Israel to circumvent international sanctions on Apartheid.
Israel supported and allied with the U.S. puppet dictatorship of the Shah of Iran. The Mossad created the Shah’s SAVAK secret police death squads and torturers in Iran (wonder why Israel is hated by many Iranians? Hmmm?).
Israel armed, trained and organized the genocidal dictatorship in Guatemala, the most murderous in the history of Latin America, including training the Kaibil death squads, setting up munitions plants, massive arms sales and even data bases of Mayan Indians for the death squads.
On behalf of its U.S. masters, Israel violated arms embargoes and armed the bloody Somoza dictatorship to the teeth to kill tens of thousands of Nicaraguan civilians. Israel armed the murderous Trujillo dictatorship in the Dominican Republic, and death squads all across Latin America. Israel provided U.S.-supplied napalm and weapons to the Salvadoran dictatorship used for mass murder in 1981, and supported the Contra terrorists against Nicaragua.
Israel supported the antisemitic Argentine dictatorship with $700 million in weapons and training to Argentina's military junta in the 1970s-80s, which killed between 1,900-3,600 Argentine Jews under the antisemitic “Plan Andina” (which claimed that Jewish communists wanted to create a second Israel in Patagonia) as part of the 30,000 people who were targeted and killed by the Argentine military junta during the "Dirty War." Jews were specifically singled out and subjected to anti-Semitic harassment, torture, and killings by the military regime supported by Israel. This number of Jews killed by Israel’s Argentine ally exceeds the number of Israelis killed on Oct 7, 2023.
And of course Israel supported the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile.
In 1965, Israel sent teams of military advisers to provide weapons and help the dictatorship in Singapore develop its military capabilities.
Likewise, across Africa Israel supported dictatorships and terrorists from Idi Amin in Uganda (at the behest of the British and USA, until the falling out), the Mobutu dictatorship in Zaire, etc., etc.
The antisemitic ruling class of America are the masters of Israel and they don't give two shits about Jews and never will. Israel is merely a tool.
What you are lacking is perspective. Like many Israelis and Jews (and Americans and most people) you have been lied to.
But it's always best to look in the mirror first before regurgitating laughable propaganda. Or as the Bible, Matthew 7:3-5, admonishes, "Do not judge, or you too will be judged” and "First take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.” (I'm an atheist but I love a good line.)
So you can support the genocide of the Palestinians and the apartheid ethno-religious right-wing regime in Israel that has earned the deserved hatred of the majority of humanity for its crimes, and sadly which is promoting antisemitism around the world, or, you can support a perspective that seeks to build a new Democratic and Secular nation for Jews and Palestinians living as a single people in equality. It is a struggle on both sides against hatred and divisions, but the crimes of the ruling class of Israel against the Palestinians and humanity, make anything done by the Palestinians pale in comparison. That is simply a fact, as demonstrated by nearly 80,000 dead Palestinians, and the hundreds of thousands murdered by Israeli governments all around the world.
I prefer to fight for secular democracy and equality for all, Jews and Palestinians. I also fight for that perspective because I am a principled opponent of all antisemitism, including the antisemitism cynically promoted by Zionists as a tool to frighten Jews into supporting Israel. That is a significant part of why Israel created Hamas.
The ruling class of Israel lies and claims that their genocide and crimes against humanity are done in the name of all Jews in the world. Naturally this inevitably leads to Jew hatred by those who unfortunately take the lying Israeli regime at its word.
The antisemitic Netanyahu regime is leading Jews into a death trap, having unleashed the greatest wave of antisemitism since WWII.
Let's fight together against that awful threat to Jews and to all working people. Let's fight for a better future for Jews and Palestinians together.
The Nationhood Law didn't make Halakah supreme over secular law. Aslo, Jews are a people whose religion is Judaism. Theocracies also don't allow non-members to serve on their courts like Israel does for Arab Muslims and Christians. So no not a theocracy.
“Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” 𝗡𝗘𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗔𝗛𝗨 said at a 2019 meeting of his Likud party, first reported by Haaretz. “This is part of our strategy — to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.”

A Brief History of the Netanyahu-Hamas Alliance
For 14 years, Netanyahu's policy was to keep Hamas in power; the pogrom of October 7, 2023, helps the Israeli prime minister preserve his own rule
There is no point in talking to people who think slaughtering 20,000 children is “self-defense.” Boycotts helped apartheid South Africa to crumble and they can do the same to apartheid Israel.
The adoption of complete antinormalization, drawn directly from the thawabit, signals that nearly all Palestinian activism has been devoured by the Neo-Jihadist purity spiral in the west that still cheers on Hamas for killing so many peaceniks on 10/7. And like all purity spirals, it must now finish running its course into the ground.

There is no point in talking to people who think slaughtering 20,000 children is “self-defense.” Boycotts helped apartheid South Africa to crumble and they can do the same to apartheid Israel.
You forget South Africa isn't Israel and Israel isn't South Africa. Furthermore, this isn't the Cold War anymore.
It was obvious that you're a zionist tool from your article on Khameini but this just proves it beyond doubt. Shame on you.
Look at you tough guy, showing a Palestinian what real Palestinianism is all about. Thank god for white saviors, right?
