Israeli Disintegration
🕑 Added 2023-03-17 13:23:17 +0000 UTCWhat do the recent protests in Israel tell us about the Zionist state? Why has Netanyahu remained at the top of Israeli politics for 25 years? What does Zionist identity politics look like?
In this episode I look at the slow disintegration of the Israeli state over the last 50 years and the role of Palestinian resistance in that.
Outro music is the Palestinian Communist song 'Rising Against You, My Enemy'

Is Israel capable of full on madman / Samson Complex nuclear Armageddon mode or is this simply an act it puts on to scare the hell out of Arab neighbours—and everyone else for that matter?

This reflects my growing understanding of the situation since the late 90s, admittedly late in coming. My political views on Israel flash before my eyes, first with shame and then with vindication, although of course the latter does the Palestinians no good. In any event, I will provide a link to an article I first wrote in 2001, when Zionist propaganda about the Mizrahim/Sephardic/Arab Jews was at it height. https://www.palestinechronicle.com/arab-jews-and-myths-of-expulsion-and-exchange/
