As Israel's slaughter continues acceleration through Palestine, and Shaytan laughs at his success, political life in older and newer colonial cores is growing more liquid as solidarity with Palestine fertilises the ground and scents the air. Unfortunately this is too late for over 30 thousand Palestinian people, perhaps some factors more if Ralph Nader's reasoning of a massive under evaluation is proven correct. British politicians have been characteristically colonial, cowered and meek. As Aamer Rahman notes, " The coloniser sees itself in Israel".
Many are thinking to themselves that their sociopathy should not be rewarded and that it may be possible to get rid of them. Despite the pervasive and colonial stifling of debate, the post lockeddown, social media enabled solidarity community has grown more sophisticated, vibrant and societally deep. We can see historic Anti War, Student, Occupy and Corbynjaan movements and methods in the cauldron, along with substantial new features.
Modest Gains
Following dozens of national marches, inspired by fearless peers in the US and morally uplifted by South Africa's case against Israel at the International Court of Justice, the University Campuses are coming alive once more. Encampments north and south and establishing and demanding at a minimum that their university authorities exercise responsibility and ethics over their investments and relationships with the Israeli death engine. Personal strategic courage and sacrifice has resulted in Anti Zionism recently being successfully demonstrated in the courts and institutions as a protected characteristic. The Implications are that one of those go-to techniques of destroying people's reputations, young and old is proving increasingly weak. Another feature that has well passed its sell by date is The Impunity of The Zionist Sh!tst!rrer, though perhaps this still requires mass whitnessing, documentation and pi$$ed off cops.
Dots are being joined and iA learning is being enacted because this justice alliance has generations of experience running through it and the scars to prove them. Following that by-election and some recent local elections we can be encouraged that some experiments towards alternatives are paying off. We don't need to rely on legacy media to know about them, but their impacts on the power hungry, the gatekeepers and their courtesans provides a thread of comic relief in such a desperately sorrowful situation.
It's really hard to learn from another's mistakes. Mistakes will be made, they are inevitable because what's going on is unprecedented for most of us, egos exist and bloat with attention, we have our limitations and there is no depth to which the Assemblage of Zionist Enablement won't stoop.
Forthcoming Labour Pains
Collectively we do need to be careful with the (over) (mis) selection of parliamentary candidates combined with bad actors meddling with local campaigns. Candidate saturation is a sign of unsuccessful consensus building within an inadequate electoral system. However, effective, dialogical and empowering leadership across a heterogenous solidarity movement is a beautiful challenge, to our egos and stupidities, I do so look forward to hearing about it. On a speaker's panel recently ANC-veteran Andrew Feinstein, made a vital point well worth ending a paragaph on, that individual self importance is of no use whatsoever to a movement. Citizen journalism is a prizeworthy activity to mitigate this. Like Not the Andrew Marr Show.
The Genocide Uniparty has had centuries of experience stoking and manipulating personal ambitions and feeding egos. It will always be able to know these things and thus enlist water carriers for all sorts of jobs. Please bear in mind that the issue of Gaza has perversely consolidated the value of these human remainers, who may well be subjugating us and messing things up in more powerful ways shortly*.
All the better reason to organise, relate and learn in better ways.
*On this I think the campaign to drop the case against the teacher with the beautifully poignant coconut placard is a triple word score initiative.
