  He qualified what he meant by that statement in his very next breath. And it very much wasn’t a call for imperialism.

  It doesn’t do anyone well to ignore the clearly stated intentions behind somebody’s words.

    You are right but it wasn’t in the Crikey article of OP so go maybe easy on the commenter.

      Wasn’t it? Okay.

      Its seagoon@aussie.zone, i hope they know, i know they’re a good person.

      Lots of AZ regulars know each other’s views fairly well now. I’s actually surprised this was seagoon’s first comment in this thread tbh.

  Is it Jewish imperialism when the Likud party in 1977 election manifesto said: “Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”?

  Or does that not count because whataboutism?

    It is a good point however Likud took 5 dud attempted coalitions before coming back in power. Bibi was about to go on trial for embezzlement. They were not that popular.

    Unfortunately while Likud are still not popular, political pundits say the Left would be very unlikely to form a coalition government in the next election.

      Likud had become a lot more popular in Israel now that it’s fast tracking the extermination of Palestinians. Which makes sense given that even the most left wing mainstream position there is still pro-Genocide

  No, listen to all the words he said that Palestinian freedom needs to come, not at the expense of other people.

    Admittedly Crikey accidentally made it sound worse by taking it out of context but they may not have had access to the video (which has since been posted in this thread).

    Nevertheless, a one-state solution cannot work because Hamas are not seeking what this guest is talking about.

      And a two state solution cannot work because Israel will not allow it and has basically already made it impossible.

        Likud certainly don’t want it unfortunately. Horrible situation.

  Only Zionists could seriously try to claim that “calling for Palestinians to be free = calling for genocide”

    Well let’s have a look at how well Jews are doing in other Muslim majority countries shall we?

      So calling for Palestinians to be free = calling for genocide, because of unrelated countries.
