The Battle For Justice In Palestine: Ali Abunimah & Barbara Ransby in Conversation

"What I sought to explain in this chapter is: does Israel have the right to exist as a Jewish state, using, by the way, common Western legal and liberal principles, that the right to exist as a Jewish state translates in practice into a right to discriminate against Palestinians wherever they are ... simply because they are not Jewish...the most galling hypocrisy is that this demand is constantly made by liberal intellectuals in the United States who would be appalled if the same demands were made in the American context...imagine if people went out in the civil rights movement...to end segregation to gain human rights, equal rights and imagine if the response was...alright African-Americans want rights, let's create a state out of part of Mississippi and it will be the State of the Negroes and you will be a citizen of that state."

What a bizarre analogy. Its a true reversal of reality and a rejection of self-determination for Arabs in Palestine. It frames the entire conflict as a civil rights movement where Arabs do not have civil rights anywhere, which is patently untrue. And it entirely disregards the military actions taken by Arabs against Jews in Israel, trying to paint the Arabs as innocent victims with no agency in the conflict. It is a deliberately constructed falsehood created specifically to draw black allies.

A proper analogy might examine a struggle for independence, self-determination and sovereignty for the Cherokee Nation in the US. Imagine is the Cherokee Nation declared independence and then was attacked by the US, Canada and Mexico. Imagine they won. Then imagine they were told that the very idea of an independent, sovereign Cherokee Nation discriminated against white people.
