Making peace with genocidal Zionism

By John Passant - posted Wednesday, 29 September 2010


The apartheid state of Israel has no right to exist. Only a one state solution in which all who want to can live in peace offers any solution.

That won’t happen through the negotiating table or by siding with US imperialism. It won’t happen through suicide bombings or lobbing a few home made rockets into Israel. It won’t happen by aligning with the dictators in the region.

It won’t happen through Palestinian industrial action since the social weight of the Palestinian working class in Israel is small, and in Palestine threatens no-one at this stage.

But there is a working class solution. It lies in the Arab working class overthrowing the US backed dictatorships. Recently mass strikes shook the Mubarak regime in Egypt.

Even the non-class conscious but democratic overthrow of Mubarak or his son will be a massive boost for the Palestinian struggle. 

A revolution that is based on and led by the Egyptian working class and peasantry can transform the whole Middle East and challenge the very existence of the racist apartheid regime of Israel.
