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.
Honestly, I really can't wait for Trump. Sounds bad? Yeah, sure. But these libs deserve so much more than what he will have to offer (most of which is lib fearmongering). At this point the only path to progress in the imperial cores- and in the global system- is for these libs and the whole system they back to burn to the ground, completely.
I hope this "Sabrina Anirbas" gets exactly what is coming to her. Unlike Dr. Refaat, she will deserve it, this will be what she and all her ilk will have brought on their heads. And if the west is truly so irredeemable that it comes down to WW3 and full nuclear exchanges (as there's a very good chance it will), all those they can bring down with them (hopefully as few as possible) will die as martyrs, but for these libs, if there is a hell (sadly doubt), eternal torment is but a inkling of what they deserve.
Correct, libs, especially self proclaimed proud ones, deserve Trump. But let's be real, trump winning doesn't do anything to them. They get to cosplay tinker tailor soldier spy about Russia for the next 4 years if trump wins. The global south always bears the consequences.
All the MSNBC hosts are gonna make bank if that happens.
What's Trump going to do to the global south, that Biden isn't already (or that he hasn't already done before- and Obama before him, etc)?
Engage in industrial genocide, and send troops in there (so far at least for that ""rescue mission"" where trigger-happy Yanks killed hundreds)? Push for WW3 and strike, or allow Isntreal to strike targets like peace negotiators, embassies, and hospitals without condemnation or consequences? Try to coup several Latin American and other global south countries? Try to create more "Ukraines" in countries like Georgia, the Philippines, or Myanmar? Overthrow governments in the global south, like say- Pakistan and Bangladesh? Try to expand NATO to Africa and Asia, and to further increase sanctions on the rest of the world? Place migrants in cages and concentration camps at the border?
Seriously though, Genocide Joe's administration is probably the most warmongering, deranged, and tyrannical US regime yet (and the next admin, Klanmala or Genocide Trump will almost certainly be worse). But what exactly are the "consequences" between Trump and exactly, for the global south? Well, I suppose he'll try to lay off on Russia (if he will even be able to do that) so as to pivot to Iran and China- but even then what difference exactly will he make from what Biden (or rather, Biden's babysitters) have already done?
The only meaningful distinction between the Trumpsters and the rest of the US political establishment as I see it, in regards to foreign policy, is their priorities listing- and that Biden/the political establishment, has better optics around the west (better imperialist unity) and the blob united behind them.
Correct on everything. It's almost as if a nation founded by slaveowners and ethnic cleansers was doomed to do this for its entire existence. I don't believe in predestination, especially for a nation, but I don't see any evidence to counter it.
McDonald's can get a new manager, but the menu doesn't become healthy all of a sudden.
This is so good
Couldn't have described it better myself on both counts, tbh.
And while I also don't believe in predestination, it certainly fits perfectly. 500 years of evil is coming home to roost, and a self-inflicted punishment biblical in proportions is almost certainly on its way if the first genocide-reich, the rotten core of imperialism itself cannot- for once in its sordid history- choose human decency and reject colonial barbarism.
