ISRAELI FOUNDERS ADMITTED IT IS A “COLONISATION PROJECT”
June 20, 2024If you’re going to defend Israel, at least use factual arguments.
Israel was established as a colonial project. From its origin, it sought to conquer and dominate the Palestinians. And it still does.
Israel MUST be stopped in its tracks. For too long, it has subdued the Arab population and promoted its apartheid across the land.

English Script:
Eylon Levy: Israel is the most successful anti-colonial movement in the world, Zionism as an anti-colonial movement.
Rathbone: Bro not even the founders of Israel or the founders of Zionism agree with you. Both acknowledge that Israel was a colonization project. One of the founders of Zionism, Vladimir Javan PINSKY, even claimed that “Zionism is a colonization adventure”. He even went on to say that “Zionist colonization can proceed and develop only under the protection of a power that is independent of the native population (the Palestinians) behind an iron wall (the British Empire), which the native population cannot breach”. I don’t know how more clear these Zionist leaders could be. The social and economic institutions founded by the early Zionists, which were central to their success, were also unquestioningly understood and described as colonial. Most important of these institutions was literally called the Jewish Colonization Association, or the JCA. This organization was crucial to, as its name suggests, colonizing Palestine. This is not a secret. Let’s consider the chief architect and founder of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, who stated in 1938. “Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves. Politically, we are the aggressors, and they defend themselves. The country is theirs because they inhabit it. Whereas we want to come here and settle down and in their view, we want to take away from them their country”. So, when you say that Zionism and Israel is the greatest anti-colonial movement in history, I don’t know what the fuck you mean, and neither do the creators of Israel and the founders of Zionism.
