“The Zionist project only succeeded insofar as it drew upon the imperial powers of Europe and later America, to the very powers they thought they were going to escape from they became the cat’s paws of, they became the instruments of.”

These were the words of Joel Kovel in a talk called “Zionism and Its Discontents” in 2007.

Already tens of thousands have been killed and injured. There are thousands under the rubble, unable to be mourned properly.

Israel is unrelenting, and as Joel Kovel put it, it is only succeeding insofar as it is drawing from the imperial powers.
