The resolution may have been rescinded out of a sense of guilt or obligation but the racism has been practiced ever since there was Zionism. “Israel’s Declaration of Independence describes the country as a "Jewish state," but also provides for full social and political equality regardless of religious affiliation.” By definition, that’s a theocracy. Just like Iran. The State of Israel has abused the UN demarcation of Israel and Palestine. I have suddenly reached the revelation that “from the river to the sea”—the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea is more than just a slogan. It should be a reality. One state or two. Please note the progression of my thinking in this regard as I’ve researched this issue. I accepted Zionism until I discovered its goal to “transfer” Arabs out and steal their land. In the West Bank, this is happening every day. Jewish Voice for Peace notes: the countries “which have organized for a ceasefire” would not seek to “upend the financial, cultural, and political alliance that ties the US and Israel’s ongoing atrocities.” Some people, Jews among them, think this implies eradication of the State of Israel. I disagree. The 1948 borders are very clear and should be enforced by international peacekeepers. Absolutely, Hamas should be disarmed. And so should Israel. Their forever wars prove Israelis are not gun-safe, more murderous than any school shooter. Jews have a Right of Return to Israel. So should Palestinians. Palestinians need a Right of Return to their ancestral homelands. The Palestinian diaspora is estimated at 7 million. It is likely only a percentage would care to return “home”, just like Jews. Refugees who no longer need refuge in other countries because, on their return, they will be unmolested by Israelis. In other words, reverse the Nakba. Israel is terrified by this possibility because Palestinians would be equal in number to Jews. They want it all for themselves! Jews were given a “homeland”. They have abused its borders by constant violence, violence which continues today and must be stopped. A state this warlike with nuclear weapons is a danger to humankind. It’s time to completely isolate Israel from the world community, diplomatically, economically, academically and culturally, including sports along with all book, film and music exhibitions. Yes, that includes Eurovision which five countries are already boycotting due to Israel’s participation. I apologise to Israel’s wonderful writers, academic researchers, filmmakers, actors, musicians and athletes. They didn’t deserve this possibly terminal interruption to their passions and their careers. But that's exactly what happened to racist South Africa. Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions. It’s time for them to speak out, isn’t it? Or enjoy their nationalism. “Jewish villages were built in place of Arab villages. You don’t even know the names of those Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist, not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either…There is not one single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population.” —Moshe Dayan, Former Minister of Defense, IDF commanding general "Every day, the previously unheard of is not just spoken aloud but also acted upon – precisely because it elicits little reaction. Two retired Israeli air force pilots wrote in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz’s Hebrew edition that “a member of the Knesset even boasted that one of the [Israeli] government’s achievements is the ability to kill 100 people a day in Gaza without anyone being shocked.” (Ha’aretz, 29 August 2026 https://archive.is/jXd9R)
