Past is Present: Settler Colonialism in Palestine
18-02-2011 13:47
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is often described as unique andexceptional with little resemblance to other historical or ongoing
colonial conflicts. Yet, for Zionism, like other settler colonial

settlement of North America, South Africa or Australia, the imperative
is to control the land and its resources -- and to displace the
original inhabitants.

Iran Says It’s Sending Two Warships to Canal?

3) It is bluster to refer to the Iranian action as a “provocation.” The move is “assertive,” for sure. But how long did the Israeli leadership believe that the feelings of others and they’re longing for respect and justice on the international scene, could be ignored?
4) Perhaps this would be a good time for the real “international community” to assert our collective demand that these two nations solve a dispute w/o involving or harming the futures of any of the rest of us?
