Shalom and Salaam
The latest Zionist terror campaign inside Gaza reminds me of the National Party that told the world that the ANC were terrorists. Like Zionists, the National Party told the world that they were a bastion of democracy, freedom and without them, civilization would end. The strategy in defence of Apartheid and Zionism are similar. Since European liability for the Holocaust hangs as an eternal Damocles sword allowing Zionist murder of Palestinians will be tolerated by western nations well into the future.
Since Zionists have the best military equipment and Palestinians have homemade paraphernalia, the killing is not a fight between equals. (The Palestinians have no military planes, tanks or war ships etc.)
In my opinion, a vital part of the Palestinian solution lies with Jewish minorities that exist outside the Holy land. Although this seems unlikely, in time, Israeli’s and Palestinians will live together. Besides the Crusades and before Zionism organised by Ashkenazi (European Jews), Muslims, Christians and Sephardi/Mizrahi (Arab) Jews lived together in relative harmony for about 1450yrs in the Holy Land.
Should Israel destroy Hamas, like they did Yasser Arafat’s Palestinian Liberation Army (PLO), what awaits in the future is greater hostility. The conflicts in Iraq, Syria etc. and the epoch of the Arab elite will end. When this ensues, either democracy or radicalism will reign. Constitutional democracies must be the rational choice. Though the world had the prospect to support democratic change in Egypt etc. the oligarchy assisted the Egyptian military, to overthrow a legitimate President. Arab elite supplied cash and the USA encouraged by the Zionists supplied material support. This coup d’état suggests that Zionism fears a democratic Muslim world more than erratic nationalist Arab militancy.
Since most of Europe, Britain and the United States are paralysed in the firm grip of Zionist idealism, a solution must be found elsewhere. This provides the prospect for local Jews to display their innate foresight and support for global human rights and non-racism. Should local Jews continue to establish themselves around the suffering of the Palestinians based on their historic support for a democratic South Africa, an upsurge of support could be initiated in other Jewish communities across the globe?
Sephardi / Mizrahi and Arabs have a shared Semitism. They are the progeny of Isaac and Ismail, the sons of Abraham. Their histories, language, religious values and general cultural practices are akin.
Since a free Palestine was never part of the Zionist agenda, militant Zionists consider the two state solutions an historic joke. A realistic solution is a unitary constitutional democracy like South Africa.
Local Jews can assist by demanding that the Israeli military release all Palestinian political prisoners especially women and children. The Zionists must stop the retailing of human organs stolen from Palestinian prisoners. Jews and Muslims must encourage the growth of democratic institutions in the Arab and Muslim nations since nothing frightens the Arab and Zionist elite like a genuine democracy.
My updated conclusion. Zionists, nationalistic militants, the Arab elite, the USA, Britain and Europe fears a constitutional democracy based on human rights more than anything else in the Holy Land.
Thinking people must forget about a “Two State Solution” and encourage a unitary Holy Land with the return of every Palestinians in exile and a negotiated settlement with majority rule as in South Africa. If Jews regard “Israel” as their homeland they must all return and give up their dual citizenship of all other countries and Christian/Muslim Palestinians and Jews must learn to co-exist in the Holy Land.
Even agnostic and atheistic materialist can see the logic, the only people that will object to a unitary majority rule “Holy Land” are those who enjoy the killing of innocent Arabs and Jews like real Nazi’s.
