"Alex McDonald’s When They Speak Israel, reviewed here by Steve Grant, explains to all of us how to engage. His basic assumption is that while some Zionists are dyed-in-the-wool racists or ethnonationalists, most are not. They sincerely believe they oppose racism but have been taught that support for Israel is justified — if not a solemn moral duty."

Here's the thing: I don't care why a Zionist believes what they believe. As a subject-of-empire under the settler empire that bankrolls the Zionists, I have no reason to care why a settler believes what they do-- I only have reason to oppose their settlement in every manner I can muster with as little loss as possible until I have nothing left to lose.

Fuck would I want to actually hold 'civil' dialogue with one of those exported crackers or their waterbearers for?
