You say that as if it's a good thing
Jihad—“struggle”—against the genocidal Israeli state that is pursuing Lebensraum against its neighboring states is a good thing.
It is.
The old fascist playbook.
Use violence against the out group. If the out group protests peaceful, falsely claim it’s violence to increase your own violence. If the out group fights back, use it as an excuse to bring all the violence you have to bear while painting your attack as an act of “defense”.
The real issue is that people are not watching mainstream media as much anymore, whole generations are now immune to the whole manufacturing consent paradigms on both the right and the left that come from the government and corporate media… hearing how cnn fox msmbc and even npr and bbc talk about how Israel’s genocide is Gaza…. I believe it’s waking us up in a way that has never happened simply because we have the internet and alternate sources of information….
Ah the Muslim Brootherhood, the anti soviet CIA funding and policy blowback of over 60 years now
It would be cool to see some anti colonialist solidarity in the region again. Although it being theoretically aligned and spearheaded by an organisation created in part to destroy anti colonialist unity is iffy.
Our war in Iran certainly won't spark a resurgence of ISIS, we can be sure of that. /s
Anyone tell Egypt?
Sisi knows what to do with that $1bn in weapons he gets from America each year
Any pacific movement left over there or is it just warmongers vs warmongers ?
Pacifists are worthless in the face of a genocidal, ethnosupremacist state seeking Lebensaum for a Greater Israel.
lmao this mfer is italian too... Someone needs to read some Gramsci
not much chance of pacific movements when an imperialist hegemon keeps stirring shit up over there.
If the issue is still oil, let's go follow the electric wave coming from far east then. People either start finding solutions or it will be a hell land forever.
I guess I'll avoid any comment about this from now on, it makes not sense anymore.
its about hegemony more than just oil. the petrodollar is a means to an end in that respect, thats why oil is so important.
the us will still find a way to target dissent even without oil in the mix. if we let them win and stay hegemons past the inevitable oil crisis, that is.
The only ones who have the power to end this with peace are israel.
Unfortunately they're fucked, they didn't just settle there, they want to expand too, they are like robots instructed to kill whoever they like
?
Is there any chance that those two speakers can have a dialogue? Google meet could help them talk in real time with their own language now, it's much cheaper than weapons !
Everytime someone tried to negotiate with Israel/the US they are killed/attacked. From Palestinian negotiators to Iran.
Insisting on "peaceful resolution" is akin to Ghandis 'pacifist' insistence that "Jews should have thrown themselves in the sea" during the Holocaust
Oh my poor naive friend. Do you think the holocaust happened due to a lack of communication?
No the Zionists are a genocidal death cult and will have no dialogue. They simply want to eradicate all muslims. They have stated as much time and again.
The people of Palestine got along just fine for the most part for 600 years before these Nazi fucks showed up, Jews, Muslims, and Christians all coexisting together for centuries and then these fuckers came along in the 1920s and started some shit and then after WWII took the opportunity to accelerate their settler colonial project under the guise of a "safe haven" for the Jewish diaspora but really they held contempt for holocaust survivors too. Just look up the kind of shit the early Zionists and the current Zionists actually write. Look up what Einstein had to say about them when he turned down an offer to be their first president. https://global-politics.eu/albert-einsteins-1948-letter-york-times-comparing-israeli-politicians-nazis/
If you think they can just "talk things out" you have not been paying attention to any of the last hundred years of history in the region.
and what the fuck would this liberal ideal scenario of a Google Meet meeting even look like?
euroamerican settler-colonialist: I want to kill you, your family, take your land, **** you and your family, destroy any structure that so much has any connection to you and your people, steal your language to create our own frankenstein version of it (and not even be able to pronounce ح), steal your food, LARP as you and do all of the aforementioned to the rest of the Arab world and beyond.
palestinians: we just want to live and liberate ourselves.
like how the fuck are Palestinians seriously expected to "meet them halfway"?
