      How so? From the getgo, and even before its inception, Israel was designed to be a setller colonial project, resting on the myth that "no one occupies these lands” just like the United States, the British empire, Spain and Portugal justified conquering the entire American continent and massacring its native population to replace it with their own.

      You could argue he was ignorant, but absolutely not right. Malcolm X was more aware of the ills of the Zionist project and he rightly condemned it.
