diaspora:

It’s easy to forget that everything that’s happening in Palestine is a result of European colonialism, centuries of European antisemitism, and Europe’s inability to answer its ‘Jewish question’

The ‘Jewish question’ was never a Palestinian or an Arab one, but a European one. Instead of Europe ‘answering’ it, by giving their Jewish populations their fair and equal rights and ending their centuries of antisemitism, they just simply tossed it onto the Middle East through lending it a very European tool; which is settler colonialism.

Europe found its ‘answer’ (or it didn’t) by simply letting someone else try to figure out the ‘answer’ and in the process sending a whole region into decades of chaos, and destabilization.

Every person who advocates themselves for the Palestinian cause must be fully aware that Zionism is fueled by antisemitism, and antisemitism empowers it. So let’s not act surprised when we see white supremacist and right-wing groups declare their love and support for Israel, because simply to them it’s the answer to their antisemitism and hatred for the Jewish people.
