Zionism Quotes

“Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs... Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as their national home”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“I am frequently asked if I have visited Israel, whereas yet, it is simply assumed that I have. Well, I don’t travel. I really don’t, and if I did, I probably wouldn’t visit Israel. I remember how it was in 1948 when Israel was being established and all my Jewish friends were ecstatic, I was not. I said: what are we doing? We are establishing ourselves in a ghetto, in a small corner of a vast Muslim sea. The Muslims will never forget nor forgive, and Israel, as long as it exists, will be embattled. I was laughed at, but I was right. I can’t help but feel that the Jews didn’t really have the right to appropriate a territory only because 2000 years ago, people they consider their ancestors, were living there. History moves on and you can’t really turn it back. (#92 ff.)”

“Actually—and this was where I began to feel seriously uncomfortable—some such divine claim underlay not just 'the occupation' but the whole idea of a separate state for Jews in Palestine. Take away the divine warrant for the Holy Land and where were you, and what were you? Just another land-thief like the Turks or the British, except that in this case you wanted the land without the people. And the original Zionist slogan—'a land without a people for a people without a land'—disclosed its own negation when I saw the densely populated Arab towns dwelling sullenly under Jewish tutelage. You want irony? How about Jews becoming colonizers at just the moment when other Europeans had given up on the idea?”
― Christopher Hitchens, Hitch 22: A Memoir

“People who call themselves supporters of Israel are actually supporters of its moral degeneration and ultimate destruction.”
― Noam Chomsky

“If every single Jew born anywhere in the world has the right to become an Israeli citizen, then all the Palestinians who were chucked out of Palestine by the Zionist Government should have the same right, very simple.”
― Tariq Ali

“I regard anti-Semitism as ineradicable and as one element of the toxin with which religion has infected us. Perhaps partly for this reason, I have never been able to see Zionism as a cure for it. American and British and French Jews have told me with perfect sincerity that they are always prepared for the day when 'it happens again' and the Jew-baiters take over. (And I don't pretend not to know what they are talking about: I have actually seen the rabid phenomenon at work in modern and sunny Argentina and am unable to forget it.) So then, they seem to think, they will take refuge in the Law of Return, and in Haifa, or for all I know in Hebron. Never mind for now that if all of world Jewry did settle in Palestine, this would actually necessitate further Israeli expansion, expulsion, and colonization, and that their departure under these apocalyptic conditions would leave the new brownshirts and blackshirts in possession of the French and British and American nuclear arsenals. This is ghetto thinking, hardly even fractionally updated to take into account what has changed. The important but delayed realization will have to come: Israeli Jews are a part of the diaspora, not a group that has escaped from it. Why else does Israel daily beseech the often-flourishing Jews of other lands, urging them to help the most endangered Jews of all: the ones who rule Palestine by force of arms? Why else, having supposedly escaped from the need to rely on Gentile goodwill, has Israel come to depend more and more upon it? On this reckoning, Zionism must constitute one of the greatest potential non sequiturs in human history.”

“We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attacks on the twin towers and the pentagon and the American struggle in Iraq. These events swung American public opinion in our favor”
― Benjamin Netanyahu

“One of my first reservations about Zionism was and is that, semiconsciously at least, it grants the anti-Semite's first premise about the abnormality of the Jew.”
― Christopher Hitchens, Hitch 22: A Memoir

“We will consider every hand who will try to take our weapons, as an Israeli hand.”
― Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, Voice of Hezbollah: The Statements of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

“If you want to judge if a party is a Lebanese enough, let me say we take up arms and fight against the occupation of our land, is that Lebanese enough?”
― Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, Voice of Hezbollah: The Statements of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

“Because for me, while Israel is a place, it has also always been a warning. A warning about the perils of building identity based on a re-traumatization rather than confronting our collective grief; about the dangers of building a group identity around insiders and outsiders; about what happens when once vibrant debate gives way to fiercely policed speech.”
― Naomi Klein, Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World

“Jews are not the most dehumanized community in the world, muslims, native americans, and blacks are, yet antisemitism dominates all popular discourse on human rights, because that's the only little narrative where white people emerge as the good guys.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Tierra Carta: Naskar Charter of Earth

“Zion is a promise, not of a mythical territory, but of duty, duty of a human to stand by a human, through plague, famine, and persecution, even against the animals of one's own ethnic kind. Only real Jew is the one defending a Palestinian, all others are recruits of the Fourth Reich.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Aşkoholic: Portrait of A Human

“Lover through self erasure, N.3153
(Zion is Nirvana is Sema is Samadhi)

Only real Jew is the one defending a Palestinian,
all others are recruits of the Fourth Reich.
Only Christian is the one defending immigrants,
all others are animals that crucified my brother.

Only Sanatani is the one defending a Muslim,
all others are stain upon Dharma.
True Muslim is the one who is kind
to people on the street, not the one
who only prays five times in the mosque.

Zion means universal solidarity,
Kingdom of God means universal brotherhood,
Nonduality means universal integration,
Sufi Sema means lover through self erasure.

The real test of your morality
is when you confront the animals
of your own tribe to defend a stranger,
all else is mythological cosplay.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Aşkoholic: Portrait of A Human

“Jews are not the most dehumanized community in the world, muslims, native americans, and blacks are, yet antisemitism dominates all popular discourse on human rights, because that's the only little narrative where white people emerge as the good guys.

There's a universally recognized jewish holocaust remembrance day, and that's great, but I have just one question - where is the native american holocaust remembrance, where is the congo and kenyan holocaust remembrance, where is the palestinian holocaust remembrance, where is the punjab and bengal holocaust remembrance - all of which were far bloodier in scale than nazi follies, why is your history, memory, ethics, all so retarded!”

“Genocide is not an opposing view
(Sonnet 3216)

When it was "Slava Ukraini",
it was not hard to say.

When it was "Free Poland",
it was not hard to say.

When it was "Vive la France",
it was not hard to say.

But when it's "Free Palestine",
whitewashed apes get tonguetied!

The Blitz was a humanitarian crisis,
but Gaza is apparently a political matter!
Why, because it's never about human rights,
it's always about narrative privilege,
inherited from the good old colonial days.

Many people smoke and drink, I don't,
these are opposing views, and can coexist
within moderation, but the support
of genocide is not an opposing view,
it's an animal practice -

and animals need to be restrained,
not respected - they need to be
confronted, boycotted, and sanctioned,
until they start behaving like human again.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Jashn-e Insan: Stranger is God, Helping is the Prayer

“Humanist Christmas Song
(Sonnet 3236-3237)

No such thing as son of god,
those are all just church-built lies,
it's easier to sell tickets,
when the heaven is in the skies.

You don't need myths and magic
to prove someone great and kind -
the sacred stuffed with fiction,
neither righteous, nor divine.

To say one faith is true
and all the others are false,
is like calling one language true,
and all the others are noise.

All the hallmark movies
and all the tinsel toys
cannot photoshop new nazis,
cannot bring back Jesus Christ.

All I want for Christmas is that
you be Christ and I be Christ.
Be the beacon on the Mount,
against IDF, against the ICE.

Come with me to the mountaintop,
beyond your popes, beyond your churches.
Every day is Christmas day,
when the hateless human marches.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Jashn-e Insan: Stranger is God, Helping is the Prayer

“No Planet for Zionazi
(Sonnet 3244)

When a mayflower full of morons
illegally invaded a living continent,
and declared themselves king,
you were not there.

When a fat white "winnie" the poo,
a lecherous leopold, and
a gringo git columbus, starved, caged,
slaughtered, and erased millions
afters millions, you were not there.

But history is repeating itself right now,
and there is no escaping it this time,
no matter your ethnicity -
on matters of ethnic cleansing
you have only one ethnicity: humanity.

Free Palestine is the 21st century
litmus test of humanity, which will
either reveal the human you claim to be,
or expose the zionazi that you are.”

“Be warrior like a Sikh,
be gentle like a Jain,
be resilient like a Palestinian,
be magnetic like a Muslim,
be unyielding like a Black,
be kind like Jesus,
be wise like Siddhartha,
be earthy like a Hindu,
and last but not the least,
be antizionist and antinazi
like a proper Jew -

not a wellgroomed ape recruit
of the Fourth Reich,
be a proper Human,
my Azad Earth Insan.”
