The land promised by God is not the Palestinian land.
Like other colonial projects, Israel has a genocidal vocation embedded in its DNA. To maintain the injustice of its existence, apartheid and extreme violence are the instruments it systematically uses.
The Palestinian people, as a colonized people, legitimately struggle to defend themselves against this injustice under international law. The colonizer, on the other hand, to maintain the dominance of the oppressed population, is increasing the intensity of violence, reaching the genocidal brutality that is currently taking place in Palestine. Failure to do so would mean ceasing the colonial project.
For example, in India, Kenya, Algeria or South Africa, we saw the same circular process of anti-colonialist struggle and the rise of repressive violence, and the moral failure of colonial power, with the fall of the colonial regime.
Unlike other colonial projects, the Palestinian Zionist colonizers, mostly secular nationalists, used and continue to use the religious alibi of "promised land" to decorate the planned colonization process.
From the beginning they knew that this alibi was going to have a great resonance in the Christian West, a resonance that until today maintains its mystifying power. Using the bait of biblical justification and instrumentalizing the sense of guilt of the Nazi Holocaust, prevailing in many European countries, Israel projects the image of the state and the victim state chosen by the god.
During the 76 years of colonization, many Western people have abandoned the true racist nature of the Zionist project, because the media have helped to maintain this false image of Israel.
Supported by a large Israeli majority, Gaza has suffered in recent months the psychopathic violence of the Israeli army, in order to unsubstantiate Zionist propaganda (hasbara) and to appropriate the true nature of the Zionist project of the Western population.
This has irreversibly changed public opinion. Images of bombed hospitals, cold-blooded patients, tortured doctors and starved children will not be erased from the collective memory.
Israel is now a pariah state, such as South African apartheid in the years before the last failure. Our government authorities, public administrations and political parties imagine, "when this ends", that they will be able to continue to maintain relations and business with their Israeli colleagues, but they are wrong.
As with South African apartheid, the demand for the isolation of the genocidal State is becoming more universal: a commercial, sporting and cultural boycott and penalties against Israel, until full recognition of the rights of the Palestinian people to freedom, equality and justice in their territory.
Genocide does not normalize with a song, Israel outside Eurovision. The Israeli Red Card is not involved in apartheid and genocide.

The other day I went to a place I hadn’t visited in a long time and I liked it so much. While I was there, I felt at ease and thought: this is my favorite place. Amulet, amulet, amulet; the word turns and turns on the way home. Curiosity led me to look for it in Elhuyar and it... [+]

Don't make a fuss, don't confront, don't victimize... and obey. As oppressed subjects, in this case as Basques, we talk, how many times have we had to listen to them? Ironically, two years ago, at the Euskalale Independentiston Meeting, Esne Arzallus said: "We have arrived here,... [+]
