Exploring the incompatibility of Zionism with a just peace in the Middle-East

I grew up in a Zionist household, spent 12 years in a Zionist youth movement, lived 4 years in Israel, and have friends and family who served in the IDF. When that is your world, it's hard to see apartheid when it's happening. 1/16

Liberal Zionism means believing that Israel must remain a Jewish state *and* that Israel can and should be just to Palestinians. In many ways, being liberal Zionist in 2025 is being delusional: 1/11

And of course, Israel wasn't just to Palestinians when it stranded Gaza under an economic blockade, repeatedly launched murderous wars, and eventually committed genocide against the Palestinian people. 10/11

If after 80 years and dozens of right-wing, centrist, and left-wing goverments, at no point in time Israel *ever* treated Palestinians with dignity & justice, then believing that Israel will one day become just is... delusional. Zionism wasn't a good idea. Let's move on. 11/11

Theodore Herzl, 1896: the Jewish State should be "an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism" Israeli Foreign Minister Ehud Barak, 1996: Israel is a "villa in the jungle" Israeli president Isaac Herzog, 2025: "We’re actually defending the West. We’re defending Europe.”
Screenshot of a Times of Israel article with the headline "Herzog to ToI: Iran wages ‘war against the Jews,’ while Israel is ‘defending the West’" and the subheading "Returning from Soroka Medical Center after Thursday’s missile attack, the president offers a stark perspective on a situation he describes as shared by Israelis and Diaspora Jews alike"
