The right to resist


What Israel are really trying to do in Gaza is destroy the right to resist. Behind the claim of self-defense what is Israel defending itself from? Resistance, resistance to an occupation, not only does Israel demand the right to occupy, they also demand the right to destroy any resistance to their occupation.

Most people defending Israel's disproportionate massacre use this,
“But they fired 7000 glorified steer like a drunk cow skyrockets at us”

Okay, why

”Because they hate us

Okay, why

”Because they hate Jews”

Weird huh, it’s not because Israel has forced an economic strangulation upon the people of Gaza or because of the 42 year long occupation, it’s because Palestinians are racist and hate Jewish people. It’s reminiscent of the type of reasoning American’s used when they were hit on September 11th, “Why us, why hurt us, we are such lovely people, they hate freedom and democracy”. There’s not even the attempt to understand the grievance and thus the response often ends up simply exacerbating the wound.

Hamas fire rockets at Israel because despite Gaza having no checkpoints and IDF posts, they are blockaded by the air, sea and land and it is in fact the largest open aired prison on the face of the planet and the continued occupation of the West Bank. Gaza is effectively still under occupation and they fire those glorified skyrockets that steer like a cow because they resist that occupation and the way to stop Hamas from firing rockets is to end the occupation, not increase it, not make it more bloody, not kill more people, not destroy more infrastructure, not bomb mosques, not bomb the University, not bomb the Parliament building, not bomb UN schools, not bomb civilians.

There is no military solution in Gaza.

  2. The game plan in Gaza is to destroy the democratically elected government and advance Abbas and the PLO. This strategy, initiated covertly in 2007 failed then......

    .....and it will fail this time.

    The Palestinian voters rejected Abbas who is seen as a Quisling puppet of Israel and elected Hamas for the very reason Israel now seeks to destroy it by force of arms.

    Recognising Israel.

    It is not that Hamas refuses to recognise Israel. They have accepted the Arab plan for peace and also offered a ten year truce.

    It is recognising Israel as a Jewish State because this entails giving up all claim to either the right of return to or compensation for the lands they were terrorised out of in 1948 and 1967.

    When posters attack the source rather than the source material, they betray their agenda.
