"LONG LIVE THE RESISTANCE IF THERE'S SOMETHING TO RESIST"

"LONG LIVE THE RESISTANCE IF THERE'S SOMETHING TO RESIST"

I like Macklemore's Hind Hall pt 2, but I have an issue with this line, "there'll never be freedom by pleading with Zionists". Because I don't think Zionists are the issue. Sure, there's the Zionist lobby, but there's also the Palestinan lobby, all kinds of lobbies. Zionists aren't the reason US is backing this war so strongly. AIPAC is not the main perpetrator of this genocide.

Imperialism is. US will support Israel in their war of subjugation so long as the oil reserves (2/3 of the world's oil reserves located in the Middle East) are protected from allies of China or Russia. They are arming Israel to the teeth, because they know Israel will forever protect their interests and force other countries to submit. They are fighting a war in the name of preventing access to this oil in just another facet of their drive to war with China.

It is almost a proxy war, except Hamas and various other Palestinan resistance groups are not connected to a imperialist power the same way Israel is. It is not a war being fought in the name of Jewish safety. It is not a war being fought in the name of the "Zionist lobby" (which errs on antisemitism if we are not careful about how we talk about it!).

It is a war being fought to keep US' imperalistic foothold in the Middle East. Never forget this.

idk if everyone else is seeing it too but the way watching genocide happen in real time has led to a huge retreat from even radical analysis is something. everyone at this point is framing the problem in terms of rights, war crimes, just war and casus belli, ceasefires. it isn’t just pointing out the hypocrisy of the liberal rules based order anymore it feels like the terrain has been conceded.

Image of a distressed-looking person with curly hair in the front window of a trolley, framed by red text that reads "we all know about the trolley problem." The words "trolley problem" appear to be dripping with blood.
Red text that reads "An impossible scenario of life and death: who do you kill? One innocent orphan boy, or a group of wanted criminals?" accompanied by a drawing of split tracks with an orphan boy on the left and a row of criminals on the right. They are all tied with ropes.
Red text that reads "Your elderly grandma? Or a child you don't know?" On the left is a drawing of a curly-haired smiling old woman, and on the right is a black-haired grinning child. Both have a red, dripping hole in the center of their chests.
Red text that reads "we see it when we vote," then a drawing of a bloody hand with a pen above a ballot. The options are "Dr. Evil" and "Cruella D." The red text continues, "when we buy," with a drawing of another bloody hand holding red-stained cash.
A drawing of a woman lying in bed looking up at her hands as they drip with blood, framed by red text that reads "we dream of it in visions of the apocalypse."
A drawing of a person clutching their own hands, once again covered in blood. A red, dripping "X" is on their chest, and their face is splattered with red as well. They look deeply haunted, and they are surrounded by black scribbly shading. "But at some point," the red text reads, "when we are tired of choosing who deserves to be spared, it becomes relevant to ask..."
A red background behind drawings of faceless people in black suits and white ties, only differentiated by head and facial hair. In the foreground is a fist at someone's side, dripping with blood onto doubly carved-in red text that reads, "who is tying people to the tracks?"

the trolley problem vs. systemic oppression: a comic.
