Some of the bravest people i know personally and some of the bravest people in the United States are the anti-zionist jews marching in the tens of thousands in cities all over the country against Israel’s barbaric bombing of Gaza right now. You live in an extremist right wing echo chamber that inexorably ties Judaism to Zionism and the Israeli state.

redefining antisemitism to smear supporters of Palestine as antisemites is a state-backed, load-bearing tactic of the Zionist propaganda strategy

Zionists have smothered or recuperated all of our independent antisemitism monitoring bodies, leaving only orgs (like the ADL) which categorize any solidarity with Palestine as Antisemitic Hate Crimes

every single person I know who has so much as voiced support for Palestine has been harassed with accusations of “Antisemitism” like this one, including Anti-Zionist Jews. many have been doxxed as “Antisemites” by Zionist organizations like Canary Mission, fired, and blacklisted for expressing support for Palestineagain, including Anti-Zionist Jews

when you see this kind of harassment and whinging toward Palestinians and their supporters, remember that this is an intentional state-backed propaganda strategy, and has been for the better part of a century

Israeli combat tactics show we should be cautious of the military’s respect for any of these considerations. In 2008 and 2014, they dropped leaflets on Gazans to take shelter and then deliberately targeted the UN infrastructure that provided shelter, claiming the buildings were Hamas weapons depots. In other cases, they would engage in a practice called “roof knocking,” where the army would tap a Palestinian home with a small missile and then give the family three minutes to leave before striking it with another, more deadly, missile. Imagine the paralyzing anxiety that comes over somebody in a moment like this. Yet Israel claims they are the most moral army in the world because of things like the provisions of warning. And they have done this successfully because of the racial construction that will not have us believe that Palestinians can be victims—that whatever happens, they are to be blamed for their own deaths.

I just want to say that whenever someone tries to distinguish between Israeli citizens versus the IDF/whatever governing administration of Israel is currently in effect, my mind automatically returns to this comic.

How do I reconcile my intense sympathy and support for Palestine while also living in the ancestral lands of Native Americans? As a black man, where exactly could I migrate to and be accepted by the local populace? I am lost on this point.

While the question of black nationhood is a complicated one, I think there’s a deeper misconception, conveyed by the idea of migration, that should be addressed, here - decolonisation does not mean physically removing non-indigenous people from the land.

Decolonisation means the destruction of the colonial state, and the return to sovereignty and self-governance of the colonised nation. Decolonisation of Palestine does not mean that ‘israelis’ living in Palestine must be removed - but that they must no longer be occupiers, they must no longer be beneficiaries of a state that opresses the indigenous population. In the case of Palestine, many of them will likely leave of their own accord anyway - they do not want to be residents of Palestine, but occupiers of it - but in more entrenched settler colonies, there’s no reason to expect everyone who isn’t indigenous to up and leave. Rather, recognising the occupied nation they actually live in, accepting its governance and authority, and renouncing any illicit gains the occupation granted them (like stolen homes and land) is much more in line with what decolonisation looks like.

The issue is not, and never was 'foreigners living on our land’, it has always been the military occupation, repression of indigenous nations and nationhood, and elevation of settlers to a privileged class on the back of exploitation and base robbery of occupied nations.
