    I want to beam this into the brains of the people who believe in that redditor “theory” that the US-Israel complex is motivated by a kooky apocalyptic christian cult and not y’know, capital as it always is. Still wouldn’t help them though.

        americans (and colonial nations in general) love pretending that it was just a phase they grew out of

      This does not make sense in relation to what Israel is doing right now. If Israel was a strategic partner it would not be acting like a rabid attack dog.

      At some point people have to admit who the dog and who the leash is. This Biden speech is nothing more than a good excuse and convenient coverup to support Israel.

          It’s something I read on Prolewiki, here is the source article.

          The exact quote is:

          “To be honest with you, it would be better for the United States to support a Kurdish nation across Turkey, Syria and Iraq,” said the National Security Council official. “It would be another Israel in the region.”

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.
