"There was no history of antisemitism in the Arab world. Antisemitism is a European disease ... In the 1930s, antisemitism was exported from Europe to Iraq in particular, and it's striking that there was no antisemitic literature in Arabic. So antisemitic literature had to be translated from European languages into Arabic, and one example is Adolf Hitler's 'Mein Kampf'."

#Zionism is a European political concept, not a Judaic, religious or ethnic one. It was invented by Europeans FOR Europeans. That’s why it plays out in the so-called #middleast exactly how European #colonialism has played out on every continent: as violent taking.

#AviShlaim is an Arab Jewish historian, a leading scholar of modern history of #Palestine & #Israel. He is Emeritus Professor of #InternationalRelations at #UniversityOfOxford and a Fellow of the #British Academy. -
Quoting Avi Shlaim [2025] on #Zionism’s self-destruction: Israel’s collapse due to internal contradictions (e.g., societal cleavages, external isolation) and the unsustainability of #apartheid / #genocide, though the process will take years, he acknowledges.
[…] "I believe that apartheid in the 21st century is not sustainable in the long term and therefore, that Zionism is in the process of destroying itself. Empires become really violent just as they are in decline, and I think this is what we're witnessing now—the last gasp of Israeli violence."
On genocide: "This is the first genocide which is livestreamed... The Israelis are outspoken about genocide."
On Western complicity: "Britain and America are not just complicit in Israeli war crimes, but active partners assisting Israel in its genocidal campaign."
On the future: "The choice is between one state with equal rights for all its citizens or the status quo: apartheid, ethnocracy, and genocide."

Merry Christmas.

https://orientxxi.info/lu-vu-entendu/avi-shlaim-la-memoire-a-vif-d-un-juif-arabe-deracine-de-bagdad,6621
Selon #VirginiaWoolf, beaucoup de mémoires sont des échecs parce qu’ils « laissent de côté la personne à qui les choses sont arrivées » Récit d'un petit garçon impressionnable et d'un l’adolescent troublé décrit par un universitaire d’âge mûr dont l'expérience personnelle illustre et éclaire une histoire beaucoup plus vaste, celle de l’exode juif d’#Irak après la création de l’État d’Israël en #nakba1948 -
« #AviShlaim a quitté #Bagdad avec sa famille en 1950, à l’âge de 5 ans, pour Tel-Aviv.

Extraits – traduits en français par Orient XXI — de la première partie de #ThreeWorlds. Memoir of an Arab-Jew »
