Here we see an open condemnation of Hamas, but in essence, the same points JVP made in their ceasefire articles: appeals to international law, “ending” the occupation, and humanitarian aid, which can only occur via ceasefire (though it’s not stated in the article). From this instance we see that the basic unity of the anti-zionist and pro-zionist forces join into the current “Pro-Palestine,” “Stop Genocide,” “Ceasefire Now,” u.$. Left. This basic unity is the result of the same source of material existence between these various NGOs, finance capital, of whom, represent a distinct force that has always, and will now attempt to normalize the exploitation and oppression of Palestinians.

Now for the general. In the labor aristocracy, there was an initial split into a “Pro”-Palestine camp and a Pro-Zionist one, but as the war has progressed, the two have begun to find unity in the form of a ceasefire. This is a unity in the true sense, given the class interests of these two camps, but ultimately a false and treacherous unity between the “Pro”-Palestine camp and Palestinians living under siege.

The form this under which this unity is taking place, is the deceitful framing of the war as a “genocide.”

What’s so insidious about this framing is that it points to what is empirically evident, the mass execution and destruction of the Palestinian people, a genuine act of genocide by the i$raeli occupation, but employs the counterrevolutionary usage of “genocide” as a vehicle for carrying imperialist class interests. “Genocide” has been a justification for anti-Communism for decades but in the most notable, recent instance of this, was with the Uyghur genocide question back around 2020/2021. What was/is the national oppression of Uyghur Muslims by China, became instead a petty-bourgeois mud-wrestling match over the question of genocide. The specifics are different, as with the Uyghur question it caused a contradiction in the petty-bourgeois between pro-China leftists (largely Dengists or those who would become that) and sinophobic liberals alongside fascists, but the general effect was the same, in that the ultimate question of national self-determination was muddied over and hidden entirely from view.

Now, we see these groups find unity on the question of Palestine, again through the same process, by casting off the question of national liberation. Thus given both the ceasefire push by NGOs and the self-serving conception of genocide by the petit-bourgeois/labor aristocracy, we see the groundwork laid for a disarming of the Palestinian resistance fighters and a return to the old rotten corpse of normalcy, but with the cobbled together skin of a dying occupation.

Conclusion:

As mentioned at the beginning of this investigation, the question of what a ceasefire could mean for contradictions among Palestinians is something significant to consider. Behind the barrage of Palestinian bodies shamelessly presented by the u.$. Left, there is the typically unreported situation of the war itself. Linking to direct sources here will likely result in censorship from reddit, but there has been consistent coverage of the military incursions here on this telegram channel: https://t.me/palestineresist

In general, i$rael is losing this war, or at its very best, struggling to find decisive footing in it. As a result, since it cannot defeat the Resistance, it attacks the people, like all cowardly fascist governments. Gaza cannot hold out forever though, and an immediately decisive victory for the Resistance does not appear to be visible yet, even though it has been in a successful position throughout the war. For anti-imperialists in the u.$. and the imperial core in general, helping maintain and advance that position should be the obvious goal. I’m hopeful that the information provided in this investigation can give insights into the creation of a correct line and combat the sea of counterinsurgency that is swallowing the question of Palestinian liberation here in the heart of Babylon.
