“Why Britain is being forced to revisit the Balfour Declaration” by Soumaya Ghannoushi in Middle East Eye @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran @iraq@mastodon.social @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press “For decades, western politics permitted criticism of Israel, provided it stopped short of Zionism itself. Governments could be condemned, [..] Netanyahu denounced - but the founding ideology remained beyond the limits of respectable debate. That line has now been crossed. And once Zionism itself becomes part of the argument, history travels backwards [..] to 1948 and the Nakba - back to the question western politicians have spent decades avoiding: whether Palestinian dispossession was a tragic consequence of Israel’s creation, or inseparable from the way that creation occurred.” #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #Gaza #PalestinianGenocide #Zionism #SettlerColonialism #Resistance #EradicateZionism #DecolonizePalestine #GlobaliseTheIntifada #Iran #War #Trump #Israel #UK #GreenParty #ZionismIsRacism #Balfour
