Important analysis: "The Israelification of the World?"

The Good Shepherd Collective’s Bana Abu Zuluf recently published a powerful essay on the interplay between Western imperialism and zionism and the zero-sum game we are presented with in her work, “The Israelification of the World?”

“Anti-zionism, when forward-looking, insists on the construction of a world without zionism, capitalism, and Western imperialism. The question should never be whether Europe or the United States will change their foreign policies towards the zionist entity. The question is, how will we organize ourselves to defeat this hegemony? We need mass resistance to the imperialist israelification of the world, creative and organized resistance, subversion of attempts to control and dominate our lives, plus a ruthless fight against repression of those who resist or speak out. The response to the ‘globalization of Israel’ today, must be the globalization of intifada in the very broad sense.”

You find her analysis on our new Substack, thecall.ps.
