Israel is the world's last colonial settler state that openly proclaims its right to steal the land of the local people and exclude them from democratic rights. Therefore, the classification of the Zionist movement as a settler colonial project, and the Israeli state as its manifestation, is not merely intended as a statement on the historical origins of Israel, nor as a rhetorical or polemical device. Whatever its root cause, the current support of the black political class for Israel's maintenance of a colonial settler state constitutes a massive, hypocritical hole in their collective souls. Israel is little more than half a century old. Funny how most of you support the peace process and reconciliation in the six counties, whereas Israel is a “colonial settler state.” But then, there always was that tradition, wasn 't there? Israel: A Colonial-Settler State? Israel is a colonial settler state. USA say NOT a word against them. Israel is a colonial settler state, with an apartheid system of segregation, with specific privileges granted on the basis of religious/ethnic identity. But the same USA has a gall to teach "democracy" to Russia. Its official church is murderously racist - just as it has to be in such case. In 1964 he opposed the proposition that Israel was a socialist state, in a debate with the Union of Jewish Students in France. On the eve of the 1967 war his Israel: A Colonial-Settler State?
