Over the past year, many have argued that the October 7 disaster — the
largest massacre of Israeli civilians in the country’s history — was a
sign that the status quo of permanent occupation has collapsed. Under
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel had been advancing a policy
of long-term “conflict management” to bolster its occupation and
settlement of Palestinian lands while containing fragmented
Palestinian resistance. This involved financing a “deterred” Hamas,
which several Israeli leaders considered to be “an asset.”

It’s true that some aspects of this strategy did collapse in the wake
of October 7 — especially the illusion that the Palestinian national
project could be crushed, or that Hamas and Hezbollah could be kept at
bay in the absence of any political agreements. The notion that Jewish
settlement could guarantee security along Israel’s borders and
frontiers — a long-standing Zionist myth — was also shattered; beyond
the deep trauma and grief suffered by dozens of Jewish border
communities, some 130,000 Israelis from more than 60 localities within
the Green Line were displaced, and most of them remain so.

Other experts have claimed that Israel’s war in Gaza, and now Lebanon,
is void of political strategy for “the day after,” and is fought
solely for the sake of Netanyahu’s political survival. But contrary to
popular opinion, clear-eyed analysis of the past year shows that
Israel continues to promote an unmistakable strategic goal in this
war: maintaining and deepening the regime of Jewish supremacy over
Palestinians between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. In
this sense, the past 12 months might be best understood as Israel’s
“first apartheid war.”

I have this for you, you fucking brainwashed idiot:
At the UN General Assembly, the Israeli delegate takes the pulpit and
says: "Before I begin my speech I would like to briefly invoke Moses.
When after a long walk in a scorching sun he hit the rock and the water
gushed out, he thought ... it's a perfect time to take a dip in the water,
swim a bit and cool down.
When he gets out of the water he realizes that his clothes are missing.
"Stolen by a Palestinian" - he thinks to himself

At this moment a Palestinian representative jumps angrily and screams:
"Typical Zionist propaganda! Palestinians weren’t even there then!"

Israeli delegate politely and respectfully replies: “Thank you very much
for your input and clarifying this matter. Now, my speech".
