Re: [Marxism] Study finds U.S. Jews distance selves from Israel

[Walter Lippmann <walterlx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This historical, demographic and social shift is very good news, and
helps to undercut Zionism's claims that their state speaks for Jews
all over the world. Israel's policy of institutionalized racism or
apartheid as Jimmy Carter quite properly described it, is becoming
increasingly clear to even the blindest of our fellow Jews today.
My mother, blinded by Zionist racism, used to say simply that
"All Arabs should be shot."

As background to how this process has unfolded, everyone can
profit from reading UCLA professor Karen Brodkin's HOW THE JEWS
BECAME WHITE FOLK AND WHAT THAT SAYS ABOUT RACE IN AMERICA.

Yesterday I saw a new Israeli movie called THE BUBBLE, which presents
a Palestinian suicide bomber in a highly sympathetic light. This is
not the first film recently to make this kind of point. Marxists, of
course, are advocates of mass working class action, and opponents of
acts by individuals acting on their own as methods of bringing about
social and political change.

If Marxists fail to understand that people don't like liberators who
come bearing bayonets, and that people find ways to resist which work
for them under their specific circumstances, of what value is it as a
tool of social analysis?

I forget who explained that war is the terrorism of the rich, while
terrorism is the war of the poor. Zionism really is racism and the
chickens of Israeli racism are truly coming home to roost.
