🤥 Palestinians and Arabs want to throw all Jews into the sea.

Palestinians have for decades found common cause with anti-Zionist Jews – whether in the occupied territories, in Israel or in the diaspora – critical of Israeli apartheid. They have worked together towards the dismantling of oppressive systems in pursuit of either two states or one with equal rights for all regardless of race or ethnicity. This is yet more proof that Palestinian grievances are with the Zionist project as opposed to Judaism itself.

Palestinians do not resist Israeli occupation and apartheid because of some inveterate hatred of Jewish people. If their occupiers today were French or Chinese or even from a Muslim country, Palestinians would surely resist just the same. The aim of Palestinian resistance is freedom.

The Palestinian struggle is not and has never been based on anti-Semitism, but rather liberation from a settler colonial apartheid regime, and the call for the rightful (and legally mandated) return of Palestinian refugees originally displaced by force and en masse in 1948.

It’s interesting how much Israel likes to project its own sentiments and actions and ascribe them to the Palestinians. The only entity that has been explicitly calling for a single-religion ethno-state and actively displacing a population is Israel.
