Speaking at a Jewish-led protest in New York on Passover, author and activist Naomi Klein urged Jews to speak up for Palestine and oppose the \u201cfalse idol of Zionism.\u201d<\/p>\n

“What I want to say to you tonight at this revolutionary and historic Seder in the Streets is that too many of our people are worshipping a false idol once again. They are enraptured by it. Drunk on it. Profaned by it.
\nTHIS FALSE IDOL IS CALLED ZIONISM.”<\/p>\n

She continues this symbolic narrative and highlights the flawed essence of Political Zionism\u2019s version of liberation.<\/p>\n

“From the start, it required the mass expulsion of Palestinians from their homes and ancestral lands in the Nakba.”<\/p>\n

ZIONISM IS A DISEASE JUST LIKE NAZISM! The war against Israel is NOT a war against Jews. It is a war against the RACIST, DISCRIMINATORY AND GENOCIDAL tendencies that Zionism embodies!! It is NOT MORAL or JUST. It is EVIL and DESTRUCTIVE.<\/p>\n

English Script:
\nNaomi Klein: I’ve been thinking about Moses and his rage when he came down from the mount to find the Israelites worshiping a golden calf. It is a lesson about false idols, about the human tendency to worship the profane and shining, to look to the small and material rather than the large and transcendent. What I want to say to you this evening, at this revolutionary and historic Seder in the streets, is that too many of our people are worshiping a false idol once again. They are enraptured by it. They are drunk on it. They are profaned by it. And that false idol is called Zionism. It is a false idol that takes our most profound biblical stories of justice and emancipation from slavery. The story of Passover itself and turns them into brutalist weapons of colonial land theft roadmaps for ethnic cleansing and genocide. It is a false idol that has taken the transcendent idea of the promised Land, a metaphor for human liberation that has traveled across faiths to every corner of this globe and dared to turn it into a deed of sale for a militarist ethno state. Political Zionism’s version of liberation is itself profane. From the start, it required the majestic expulsion of Palestinians from their homes and ancestral lands in the Nakba. From the start, it has been at war with collective dreams of liberation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
