I wrote my thesis on Britain’s use of prison labor in Palestine & imperial-Zionist class war against Palestinian men from 1920-48. As the 74th yr of Nakba approaches we cannot forget that it is imperialism which has always made Zionism’s presence & expansion in Palestine possible

This is a complete and utter lie. PYM and PSL called a protest in support of Columbia students & our members inside the encampment. We had a protest planned at Union Square that we pivoted to Columbia, bringing 100s of people.
But you wouldn’t know that from Tunis, would you?
This action was not endorsed or organized by PSL or

This is an armed settler at Nahal Oz in 1955. Her job was to catch Gaza's refugees.

The Palestinian left:
Organized democratic mass politics isn’t easy, but it’s got a great track record and doesn’t involve mowing down elderly women with machine guns. Many on the Palestinian left, which is not a monolith dominated by Hamas, actually prefer it to terrorist attacks on civilians

What’s that quote about mistaking the 3rd month of pregnancy for the 9th?
The whole point is that context matters. In the 80s even Mitch McConnell voted against apartheid. If the Palestine movement was where the anti apartheid movement was then we wouldn’t be having this convo.
