I’m a British-born Jewish woman based in Israel/Palestine since May 2021. I’m a leftist, and a proud anti-zionist. I work for the liberation of Palestine full time and my work has brought me into close conversations and intimate contact with a wide cross section of Palestinians, from sweet young mothers and adorable innocent children, to members of militant organisations from Hamas to the Jenin Brigades.
Freedom fighters are clear it’s about resistance to the zionist regime, and even most militant Palestinians are not anti-semitic. So why does the British left struggle with anti-semitism, when actual Palestinians don’t?
This isn’t something I’d be talking about, with a full-blown military genocide taking place against Palestinians, unless it was also a useful thing to focus on at this time, in terms of the Palestinian struggle for justice. There’s a brutal knock-on effect for actions like these, in terms of support for zionism.
