Colonial powers' recognition of the "state of Palestine" must be understood in the context of their overall stance on the settler colonization of Palestine, particularly against the Palestinian resistance to it. French political scientist François Burgat explains on Al-Jazeera.

@LaraJBitar We're behind this, and happy to discuss it! Here's our (also heavily shadowbanned) Arabic page @filistinwahida and our website mobadara.ps

Civil resistance in Lebanon today is almost as important as armed resistance. --- Spotted in Beirut: "Social Cohesion is Resistance" "A letter from Palestine to Lebanon: The best gift we can offer the enemy is our internal division. He has repeatedly declared his intention to occupy Lebanon and redraw the map of the region. Our enmity cannot be based on factionalism or sectarianism. The need to confront the threat that Zionism poses on everyone must be the standpoint from which we manage our political differences."

Yes, there are powerful forces at work—But we are not unable to fight back. John Perkins, author of "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man", explains. To subscribe to John Perkins' newsletter or preorder his latest book "The Art of the Steal": johnperkins.org.

Is Hezbollah problematic? Does it represent the Lebanese people? Does it have the right to use armed force against the colony? What about Israeli civilians who die? Dyab Abou Jahjah, Lebanese writer and activist, and co-founder of the Hind Rajab Foundation, explains.

The answers consists in, first, setting the trajectory, and second, understanding the balance of power that allows the settler colonization of Palestine in order to determine actions that can offset it. Zoom link: us06web.zoom.us/j/88121898981?…

Politicians and public figures must stop accommodating Zionists and “both sidesing” apartheid, aggression, and genocide. There is no such thing as a “liberal Zionist,” just as there is no such thing as a liberal slaver, a liberal Nazi, or a liberal fascist. And there is no morally defensible position that grants the blood-soaked, genocidal Israeli regime a “right to exist.” Zionism is a deeply racist, fundamentally violent, and necessarily colonial ideology. It cannot be put into practice without aggression, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. It is, by definition, an annihilatory ideology. If we are to defend human rights, peace, the self-determination of the indigenous people of Palestine and the region, and the integrity of governments across the West and beyond, Zionism must be defeated, the Israeli regime dismantled, its perpetrators held accountable, its victims compensated, our governments and institutions freed from its corruption, and a new dispensation based on human rights and equality established and defended. Evil is not defeated by accommodation. It is defeated by confrontation, resistance, and solidarity.
