Norman Finkelstein, Mouin Rabbani, Shir Hever & Colter Louwerse on Why Israel is supported by West.
India & Global LeftOct. 13, 2024
All honest witnesses testify to the repugnant hypocrisy of the US Empire, whose two-faced Middle East policy, articulated by Neocons at least since the days of Ronald Reagan, extends to this day. The pretense is that the US is against an expansion of the war in the region, and has no real power to restrain Israel, a fully supported and controlled colony of the Empire.

How the Gaza genocide will lead to Israel's collapse, with Shir Hever
More than eight months into this genocide (now a full year), Israel is losing the war between its army and the resistance on the ground. Israel’s own economy is in shambles, as more and more Israelis leave abroad for good and as its high-tech sector collapses. “I think that what we’re seeing is, first of all, that this Israeli military doctrine has flown out the window,” political economist Shir Hever tells us on The Electronic Intifada Podcast. “There is no doctrine right now – what we have is a collapse of Israeli society. It is a social collapse. It’s also psychological collapse, [and] it has to do with the fact that Israelis have lost connection with reality,” he adds. Hever is the military embargo coordinator for the Palestinian Boycott Divestment and Sanctions National Committee (BNC) and works on its #ShutDownNation campaign. Hever, who lives in Germany, is the author of The Privatization of Israeli Security and The Political Economy of Israel’s Occupation.

- Now the fight against anti-semitism is being weaponised as a new sanctimonious McCarthyism.
