Zionism is a kind of racism. It is essentially colonial. It has manifested in an apartheid regime calling itself "the Jewish state" that dominates non-Jews, and particularly Palestinians. You can't practice anti-racism at the same time as identifying with, or supporting, Zionism.

Rabbi, in all sincerity: don’t you fear you’ve lost all perspective?. This is a society in the throes of full blown fascism. The governing ministers are literally telling us that they’re fascists, that they plan to destroy Gaza completely.
@FranckMagennis @SCynic1 Zionism is many different approaches to Jewish liberation. Some espouse violence not unlike the PLO, or are religiously extreme like Hamas. Fortunately most are moderate. That’s what Israel is, for the most part - a moderate liberal democracy. You are spouting the more.

I see Simon Myerson KC has been On Here sneering at me these last few days, tagging me and desperately trying to get my attention. Throwback to five years ago, when he falsely accused me of antisemitism. Nasty, empty allegations of racism are out of order. He owes me an apology.
This is a lie. It’s antisemitism, as the EHRC Report makes clear. It’s offensive to the survivors & refugees who inhabit the “Jewish State” - & a reminder that “your state” slammed the door in their faces & watched them die. It’s offensive to black South Africans. It’s vicious.

“CAA” have been targeting me for about half a decade. What’s now my pinned tweet was their first failed attempt. They might seem scary to the uninitiated, but they’re really crap at what they do (and all they do, literally their whole strategy, is run crying to the manager.).
BREAKING: The @barstandards has applied for a restraining order against the Campaign Against Antisemitism as it prepares to make its 40th report to it against @FranckMagennis .

I’m exhausted. I can’t believe it’s coming up to two years of genocide. I cannot begin to imagine how people in Gaza must be feeling. Truly. I can’t imagine. Pick yourself up, cultivate hope, escalate against the British government as it participates in ‘Israel’s’ mass murder.

Netanyahu’s government is one of open fascists. They refuse to call a ceasefire because once they do, it’ll show how badly they’ve lost. Their genocide has destroyed Zionism’s reputation. ‘Israel’ is close to implosion. We must make it so. We must dismantle Israeli apartheid.
You would not have left the Nazis in Berlin in 1945; neither will Israel leave Hamas in Gaza in 2025.

It’s anti-Zionism or barbarism.
This is Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich describing Israel’s intent to commit genocide. They're proud of their ethnic cleansing, occupation, land theft, collective punishment, and starvation. This is the "intent" the world pretends not to see.

Hey Corbyn, you badly messed up this answer. In the depths of a genocide animated by Zionism, how about:. “Adopting IHRA was a mistake, because it’s racist against Palestinians. I agree with Zarah Sultana: as anti-racists, and as anti-fascists, we should all choose anti-Zionism.”.
In this one on one with Jeremy Corbyn, the independent MP responds to criticism from his colleague Zarah Sultana, who said Labour under his leadership was wrong to have adopted the controversial IHRA definition of antisemitism. Watch the full interview on YouTube

“Our lawyers are once again on the phone, asking to speak to the manager.”. Zionism is racism, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” is a racist organisation. Everyone knows it. Don’t let these dweebs try to stop you from escalating against the British government-backed genocide.
Our lawyers are reviewing this footage of an officer of the court, Franck Magennis, outside Westminster Magistrates’ Court today.

Smotrich says “We are erasing the Palestinian state.” A self-proclaimed fascist, he’s ‘Israel’s’ finance minister. There’s no room left for compromise with the Zionist project. You’re either on the side of the fascists eradicating Palestine, or you’re an anti-Zionist.

“Israeli soldiers, colonizers, you are not welcome.”. The world is turning fully against Zionism.

Palestinians, like all humans, have a right to use armed force to resist their colonisers.
If you only post Palestinians dying and never Palestinians resisting, you are a zionist propaganda account.

Dr Dave Rich openly identifies with Zionism, the racist, genocidal ideology of an apartheid state. Support for Zionism is collapsing, and Zionists are fast becoming pariahs worldwide. Hopefully he has the courage to walk away from Zionism.

It was an honour to address the crowd outside court today in solidarity with @KNEECAPCEOL and Palestinians. I said:. 1. We must escalate our opposition to British state participation in genocide. 2. Palestinians have a right to armed resistance. 3. We are all anti-Zionists now!.

Zionism is:. 1. Racist.2. Colonial.3. The official ideology of Israeli apartheid.4. Inherently violent.5. Fascist.6. Genocidal. To be antiracist is to be anti-Zionist. To be anti-fascist is to be anti-Zionist. There is no fence left to sit on. We are all anti-Zionists now.
Britain has 1,480 parliamentarians. Only 1 of them - one - has come out as an anti-Zionist. Her name is Zarah Sultana. This has to be 1st rock of an avalanche. Zionism is a hyper violent settler-colonial ideology predicated on the destruction of the indigenous people of Palestine.
