It's not in Western interest to limit Israel in any way.
Alana Lentin:
'Thus, the almost total impunity granted Israel as it has exacted death and destruction on the people of Palestine and sown murderous chaos around the region since its founding can also be understood in terms of the function it serves for the West. Israel’s recent June 12 attack on Iran exposes this in no uncertain terms. Germany, erroneously thought by a majority of observers to be driven in its rabid support for the Zionist colony by guilt for its genocide of the Jews of Europe, made its desires clear. Commending the strikes, German Chancellor Merz said, “This is the dirty work Israel is doing for all of us.”'

CW: fascism, authoritarianism, xenophobia, sexism, anti-queer violence, climate crisis, AI and labour displacement
I increasingly distrust the language of “multiple crises.”
AI-driven labour displacement.
Climate catastrophe.
Right-wing populism.
Fascism.
Racism.
Sexism.
The organised backlash against queer existence.
We are encouraged to catalogue these as separate problems, each requiring its own specialist vocabulary, institution, funding stream and respectable panel discussion.
But they are not unrelated phenomena.
They emerge from overlapping structures of domination.
The same political economy that renders a worker disposable can render a forest disposable. The same authoritarian imagination that reduces migrants to a demographic threat reduces queer people to a threat against an imagined social order. The same hierarchical logic that demands obedience from bodies demands obedience from nature, labour and dissent.
And when the system produces insecurity, it offers a remarkably convenient explanation:
Not the structure.
The Other.
The migrant.
The queer person.
The feminist.
The unemployed.
The dissenter.
Someone must be made responsible for conditions they did not create.
This is not an accident. It is politically useful.
So I am less interested in asking which crisis we should address first than in asking what keeps producing them.
Because if we merely treat the symptoms, the machinery remains intact.
And machinery does not become humane because we learn to describe its victims more politely.
Find the structure.
Name the hierarchy.
Follow the power.
Then start taking the machine apart.

Het is niet in Westerse belangen om Israël een haar in de weg te leggen. Alana Lentin:

Hamilton anti-racism groups give tips on how to avoid unwittingly renting venues to groups deemed extremist
Dominion Society, which supports deporting immigrants en masse, is advertising a conference in Hamilton this month. It's prompted anti-racism groups to advise venues and businesses on how to avoid unwittingly booking events by groups they say promote hate, an issue that's come up in other parts of the country.
