Basic introductory documents on Zionism

"Why should the Arabs make peace? If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country. Sure God promised it to us, but what does that matter to them? Our God is not theirs. We come from Israel, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There has been antisemitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?" - Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion as quoted in "The Jewish Paradox: A personal memoir" (1978), by Nahum Goldmann (translated by Steve Cox), p. 99.

Zionism´s historical roots

As Judaism is deeply racist, implemented Judaism in the form of Zionism, is logically a racist and anti-humanitarian movement. Understanding Zionism of today one has to acquire knowledge of Zionism´s history; its historical roots, former and present alliances and methods.

Intra-Jewish Discrimination and Violence

Discrimination in Israel extends further to Jews, where Ashkenazim (European Jews) look down to/discriminate against Sephardim (oriental Jews), and the ultra-religious (Orthodox, who control many aspects of civil law, e.g. marriages and burial) against other Jewish sects (Reform/Conservative) and secular Jews. The majority of U.S. Jews --thanks to whom Israel virtually controls American Middle East policy-- are of the Reform/Conservative sects, while the U.S. Orthodox Jews are a minority. In Israel, reform and consevative Judaism has very little following. About 85 percent of Jews in Israel are secular, (but still call for control of the land based on biblical accounts). Famous victims of inner Jewish discrimination include the family of Mordecai Vanunu, the Dimona nuclear technician who exposed Israel's nuclear program to the London Sunday Times. His family emigrated to Israel hoping to live in Haifa, but were instead forced to live in the desert town of Beersheba (see A Cockburn Dangerous Liaison, 1991, p.95). Perhaps the constant state of mobilization and fear of war created by Israel's rulers is one way to divert attention from those differences which may otherwise ignite bitter internal conflict.

Politicizing the "holocaust"

The "holocaust" myth has been turned by Israel and its supporters into a political tool to silence criticism against its expansionist actions as anti-Semitism. It has also been turned into a money-making, and vote-collecting tool for lawyers and politicians. Indeed the reason why Arabs are sometimes more inclined than others to adopt "holocaust" Revisionism is the use by Israel's supporters of the purported "Holocaust" as a weapon to silence critics of Israel in its treatement of Palestinians.

  Document also includes writings by Prof. Arnold Toynbee on the Palestine Question and the "holocaust" and an interview with Professor Abdullah Mohammad Sindi, where he says there was no such a thing as the "holocaust" and argues that it is in fact Israel which has created a real holocaust for Palestinians.

  By Alex Somekh (Ha'aretz 06/12/1998). Israel here shows no real concern about non-Jews immigrating into the country, just as long as they COUNT as Jews, i.e. non-Palestinian. It would seem that anything serving the dispossession of more Palestinians and increasing the "Jews"-to-Palestinians demographic ratio, is kosher.

Labor vs Likud: No Difference in Actions. Israel's "Left"

"You are exactly like the Likud. Don't you think that the Arabs need someplace to live?" member of Knesset Shulamit Aloni complained to Rabin after he made up his wide settlement plan of 1995, on 01/25/1995, Rabin Responded "I think about Israelis,".
(Quoted in Settlements and the Israel-Palestinian Negotiations by Geoffrey Aronson, 1996)

• Likud vs. Labor: Any Difference? Israel's Labor Party "Cleverly Concealed" West Bank Settlements
  By Paul Findley (Washington Report 11/1994). Many are fooled to think that there is a real difference between Likud and Labor, as far as the Palestinians are concerned. Although Likud might have a slightly larger resume of anti-Palestinian oppression, both have similar stand on all the main issues, such as settlements, refugees, Jerusalem, Abou Ghoneim (Har Homa), and house demolition. While Likud (Netanyahu, Shamir, Begin) does things in-your-face style, Labor (Rabin, Peres, Barak) is more soothing and diplomatic in its rhetoric, says one thing but does the complete opposite, maneuvers more skillfully around the media to avoid raising many flags, and speaks with a more mellow tone, giving the false impression that it is more for peace than Likud.
