"Then when I got involved in the National Union of Students I realised that I wasn’t the only one who felt this way. That’s a really magical moment, when you discover that you’re not alone in your politics."
"If we’re contesting state power, we’re going to face a major backlash, and we need to have the institutional resilience to withstand it. […] The overall party structure has to be unitary."

CW: "New antisemitism" 🧵
In 1967, the State of Israel attacked Egypt. Already, it was referred to as a ‘pre-emptive strike’. Since then, the Jewish State has occupied Sinai, the Golan Heights, the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza. (see map)
For three centuries, this war has been the only one to bear the name of its duration: the ‘Six-Day War’, a name that glorifies the military impact (of the Zionist Sparta).
In 1968, several French intellectuals drew a link between the Six-Day War, anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is an organisation that supports the Israeli government and fights against diversity. In 1974, Arnold Forster and Benjamin Epstein of the ADL published a book entitled ‘The New anti-Semitism’, expressing their concerns about :
- an indifference to the fears of ‘the Jewish people’,
- apathy in dealing with prejudice against Jews,
- an inability to understand the importance of Israel for the survival of the ‘Jewish people’ (in their view).
Hence controversy in the United States (among professionals in public debate).
Later, Allan Brownfeld wrote that Forster and Epstein's definition of anti-Semitism trivialised the concept by turning it into ‘a form of political blackmail’ and ‘a weapon to silence any form of criticism of Israel or of US policy in the Middle East’ (in ‘Anti-Semitism: Its Changing Meaning’, Journal of Palestine Studies, vol. 16, no 3 (Spring, 1987), pp. 53-67).#IsraelArabConflict #SixDayWar #history #historyOfThought #proZionism #civilization #clashOfCivilizations #TheWest #imperialism #instrumentalisation #confusion #amalgam #antisemitism #newAntisemitism #MiddleEast #StandWithIsrael #islamophobia

The German state has bound its own re-birth into the “realm of civilized nations” through a particular protective relationship with the figure of the Jew, where (always Jewish) Israelis are a prime embodiment of Jewish life.
"As long as the figure of the Jew remains a medium through which German post-unification identity is articulated and experienced, the performance of Jewish collective difference and political agency will be exclusively relegated to the State of Israel. The figure of the Palestinian, as well as Palestinians’ political subjecthood and demands for equality will, in turn, be addressed as either an annoyance to be ignored or a threat to be criminalized—rather than as a crucial prism through which the multiple layers of legitimatized moral violence in Germany have to be recognized."

Daniel Levy: "As the movement for Palestinian rights has built up one kind of popular power, pro-Israel forces have doubled down on financial power. The Democratic Party could have said they will not allow independent expenditure campaigns, because they are a travesty and a disgrace to democracy, but they didn’t — and so they have enabled those pro-Israel forces."

"Despite broad popular support for legislation to curtail police violence, Congress got nothing done. Democrats, despite controlling both the House and Senate in 2021 and 2022, slow-walked the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, insisting on bipartisan support that never materialized."
"Both #BLM activists voted into Congress have been pushed out."
"Bowman and Bush have been routed out of Congress, thanks to a historic deluge of big-money spending against them. They battled challengers in the most and third-most-expensive congressional primaries in American history, respectively, and each was outspent roughly 4–1."

CW: Waleed Shahid talked about influencing the Democratic Party
"The strategy of building a faction both inside and outside the party is responding to the laws of gravity of our political system, but it’s becoming a lot harder, especially electorally, and especially because of this massive amount of spending from AIPAC, from cryptocurrency, and so on. When your candidate is unknown, elections are often built around how much money you can raise to increase your name recognition and to defend yourself from attacks."
"The youth wing of the ceasefire moment is pretty opposed to, or ambivalent about, party politics and electoral politics, and is much more focused on mobilization and disruption in a way that is similar to Occupy Wall Street."
"My hypothesis is that Muslim partisan loyalty to the Democratic Party is much thinner than it is with Jewish Americans, who are part of the Democratic Party for many reasons that have nothing to do with Israel – liberal and democratic values, social justice values.
• Over the years, polls have shown that Jewish voters generally do not list Israel among their top five issues.
• Many Muslims are part of the Democratic Party for its anti-racist values, so when the Gaza war is in contradiction with those values, it’s easy for them to leave."https://www.dissentmagazine.org/online_articles/uncommitted-biden-harris-primary/ @palestine
