  • Yes, it’s definitely by design. Without going giving a wall-of-text history of political Zionism, the movement that really got traction and both led to the creation of “Jewish Zionism” and the state of Israel was a British evangelical protestant movement that not only wanted to make the UK free of Jews (again) but also bring about the preconditions for the Christian prophesy for the return of their messiah. The Balfour, who gave the “Balfour Declaration” his name, was a rabid antisemite that wanted Jews out of the UK. The only Jewish member of the cabinet at the time was the only member of the cabinet who opposed the Balfour Declaration. The Christian theological underpinning of political Zionism has, as its end goal, the biblical apocolypse where, first all Jews are headed into the holy land and the a few are converted to Christianity while the rest are killed (and go to hell). This movement proceeded the Nazi holocaust and was the UK’s answer to “the Jewish Question.” Early Jewish Zionists were not necessarily set upon Palestine as the future Jewish state, but they couldn’t get any real traction with Christians in power in the west until they structured the request to align with this apocalyptic end-game.


  • The American settler genocide is still ongoing. Just because some residents find it acceptable enough doesn’t mean history is over. US/Canadian foreign and domestic policy will always be flawed so long as their essentially settler-colonial character remains. See, e.g., the black shirts called to all the college campuses in the US right now. Most of these college students and professors, before the past week, probably found the system “acceptable” but now they see what happens when they even suggest sympathizing with colonial victims.
