The foundation of an allegedly “Jewish state” in historic Palestine, by Zionist militias carrying out the systematic ethnic cleansing of the indigenous Palestinian Christian and Muslim population, and subjecting those who remain to apartheid, has always been a racist endeavor.
Zionism, the political ideology that justifies expelling Palestinians and stealing their land, is not Judaism. Israel's apartheid regime does not represent or act on behalf of Jews all over the world. Those who equate Judaism with the racist Zionist endeavor are anti-Semites.
Palestinians and Jews stand together against the violence and racism of Zionism. We must refuse to be silenced by Israel's thuggish lobby that tries to falsely implicate all Jews in Israel's crimes, and to smear even Palestinians defending their own rights as "anti-Semites"
For Israel and its lobby of racists and liars, there is no legitimate position Palestinians can take in defense of their own basic rights. For them, the only Palestinian who is not an "anti-Semite" is the one who agrees to be expelled or subjugated and erased from history.
Zionism is not a religion or an ethnicity. Zionism is the toxic and racist political ideology and program of a nuclear-armed settler state. Being a Zionist is a choice. No one is forced to support Israel's crimes against Palestinians. Unchoose Zionism. electronicintifada.net/blogs/asa-wins…
