Stopping the genocide now is the priority. Whatever you can do in that regards is the most important activity. If what you call ‘working together’ helps, then do it.

The next priority is stopping future genocides and striving for a better world. For that you have to have a clear perspective of the world. “Why can’t we all get along?” decisively doesn’t cut it. Has it stopped a live, broadcasted genocide after 5 months? Do you think an appeal to humanity will change the world?

So what is the world we’re living in?

We are living near the end of the US empire and the end of the Western era. Mostly thanks to China. The Western era was characterized by exploitation, violence and hyper-hypocrisy. Its most distinctive expression was colonialism, neocolonialism and world wars. And colonialism’s poster child is Israel. It was initiated, built and sustained by exploitation, ethnic cleansing and propaganda. This current genocide is a genocide by the US and by the ‘West’ using the Isra-Zionist entity as the tool. Thus, although Jewish people have a right to exist, there is an imperative that Israel, the tool of the West in oppressing our region, must cease to exist. And you must be very clear about that. If jews want to live in any country, they are welcome to do so as equals but never as masters and oppressors. Never as Zionist Israel the colonialist.

And what about ha m as? They are part of the resistance and a rebellion against the US empire and the ‘West’. They are not the enemy. They are not your image of the resistance, but they are part of the resistance. Thus don’t be apologetic about them. This empire and this ‘West’ will not cease its oppression peacefully and it needs to be resisted by ha m as and by others who can and who dare to resist. The stated aims of Ha m as are neither conquest nor oppression. They want freedom for their people. Let them try. A free people can then choose to keep or change them. But now we are not free. Now is the time of the resistance.
