They won’t be able to defame the righteous resistance of the Palestinian people
In the wake of yesterday’s operation from Gaza against Israel, the bourgeois media has been full of propaganda in favor of the Israeli government, and the hypocritical imperialist centers have been churning out one anti-violence message after another, releasing declarations of solidarity with Israel.
Stop faking that this point has suddenly been reached. Let no one pretend that violence in the region is something totally new and unseen before.
The systematic persecution and oppression of Palestinians, whose land is occupied by the Israeli army and Israeli settlers, has been going on for decades. Over these decades, the Palestinian people have repeatedly faced forced displacement; those who have resisted have been subjected to all forms of severe violence fueled by racism; ground attacks and air strikes have tried to suffocate and exterminate a people.
The perpetrators failed.
However, the imperialist actors who supported and attempted massacres against the Palestinian people all this time by using the pretext of “Israel’s right of self-defense”, all of a sudden remembered “peace” when the Palestinian people raised resistance.
Yes, this region deserves real peace. And yes, peace is necessary to put a complete end to this situation, no matter who suffered the losses. The sincerity of the communists on this issue should not be questioned by relying on the hypocrisy of the imperialists who close their eyes to the value of human life when it comes to the Palestinians and act with fake sensitivities when the opposite happens. Communist in Israel are teaching an important lesson in this respect, bravely stating that the Israeli state’s occupation policy is responsible for all that is happening.
The Palestinian people are struggling for their existence and until this struggle culminates in the establishment of an independent and sovereign Palestinian state, the actions of the Palestinian people will remain legitimate. The only way for this struggle to result in a lasting peace is through a consistent struggle against imperialism. It is obvious that Hamas, which only confronts Israel without positioning against imperialism and its regional policies as a whole, on whose founding dynamics the possible role of Israel is discussed, and which does not represent the possibility of linking the resistance of the Palestinian people to a progressive social project due to its class and political character, cannot shoulder this struggle. It is precisely for this reason that the ceaseless resistance of the Palestinian people appeals to all leftist forces with an anti-imperialist and secular character to stand up for a lasting peace in the region.
Imperialism and the occupiers will surely lose!
The righteous resistance of the Palestinian people will win!
