[Marxism] protests in Israel against attack on Iran



Andrew

There are no demo against Israel possible attack on Iran.

Our group is too small to hold or organize such a demo. The Israeli left is
controlled by the very reformist Communist party.

Sometime when there are many demo around the world about some topic there is
an echo in Israel.

Why it is so? Particularly when most people living in Israel are not
convinced that Israel will attack Iran as the US is not giving Israel green
light.



The general explanation however has to do with the class nature of Israel
as a settler colonialists and the fact that the Palestinians citizen of
Israel live in much better conditions than the Palestinians occupied in 1967
and the Middle class Palestinians are not very militant and focus only on
Israel and the occupied 67 lands

.

The key to the changes in the Middle East is not in the Israelis workers not
even the Palestinians citizens of Israel but the Arab working class most
importantly in Egypt.
