  • While Israeli’s are on the front lines of the expansion and preservation of western interests, and therefore actively committing unspeakable horrors reflexively, the rest of us living within the sphere of western hegemony should not feel like we are much better than the Israelis - while they are the weaponized vassal which is at the end of the chain of imperial brutality, we share in their machinery of imperial exploitation. We cannot distance and absolve ourselves from our own nation’s participation in Israel’s genocidal mania.

    I write the above not to shield Israelis from the retributive justice that they deserve, but to thwart our base compulsions to escape into a focused criticism of Israel rather than organizing against our own governments which enable the acts of terror perpetrated directly by Israel. Even after the fall of Israel, if we do not confront our own ruling class by means of revolution, there will be another militant vassal of western empire in our future.
