Artikkel i The Guardian 29. april 2024 av Jo-Ann Mort:
"Zionism can – and must – be about liberation of Jews and Palestinians"
Hun angir 2 typer av sionisme, den første nedfelt i erklæringen ved Israels etablering i 1948.
Den andre typen tar hun sterk avstand fra:
"The second is woefully apparent in today’s Israeli government, a messianic all-mighty Zionism, a Jewish supremacist ideology forged against the Palestinians who also live there. It is an horrific belief system, worth opposing for sure, because it privileges one group of people – one nation – at the expense of another. It is an extreme religious vision of Jewish power steeped in an anti-modern ideology, versus a shared society and accommodation between Jewish and Arab citizens inside of Israel and between a Jewish and a Palestinian state."
Og hun har klar melding om "sionisme under Netanyahu":
"A full 16 years of rule by the rightwing populist Benjamin Netanyahu have severely damaged the essence of the state, and now, daily bring horrors to the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. They have gravely endangered Israelis themselves – most obviously those attacked on 7 October, but day-in and day-out, through policies that are discriminatory and racist, the Netanyahu regime shows an ugly face of Israel to the world."
Hun avslutter slik:
"There is a fierce ideological battle indeed – a battle to determine which Zionism will win out. This struggle will determine not only the future of Israel but the future of the Jewish people, and the future of the Palestinian people. We are entwined and we must be liberated together. We must work together to end the war, to bring safety and security to both peoples. We must seek our joint liberation."
