Illusions will find an end
There is no doubt that all the peoples of the earth, since the beginning of life, created their myths, formed their beliefs, and set their laws and theological beliefs, except in one case in which the opposite happened, and that is the case of the Jewish community in the Israeli colonial occupation state, which was created and existed according to its myths and endless illusions, which are the illusions of the “Kingdom” Greater Israel", these illusions of a number of historians and thinkers are the basis upon which the idea of establishing the Jewish religious state was based. In order for this hope or illusion to be realized, the thinkers and priests of this group had to first set geographical borders for this alleged state or homeland, and from here they resorted to myth, then they had to create an ancient history for this state, so they resorted again to myth, and so myth was the haven for creating all The foundations of their state and their illusions, including the illusion of the Jewish people, which they do not want an end to.
It was stated in the book Critical Study of the Theology of Israeli Racism, "that, although religious visions are one of the determinants of the expansionist security strategies of the occupying state, and in which the mythical is mixed with the real and the past and the present, where their history becomes a theology and their theology is a history based on the conviction of the founders and leaders of colonial Israel that they are the heirs of the ancient kingdom of David and Solomon .
That the theology of Israeli racism as a “sacred energy” affects with its power and racial uniqueness what is “unholy among the non-Jews” from the point of view of their distorted conviction becomes a justification for inequality, exploitation and wars, and gives the psychological justification for the behavior of the Israeli Jews towards others, especially our Palestinian people.
This expresses a part of the justifications for what is happening today, not only from the circles of the religious Zionist parties, but from all the Zionists who succeeded to the governments of their state. However, despite the idea of their supremacy and the ethnic purity of the Jews in whom they believe, there is a diversity of cultural and ethnic levels of Jewish groups and Jewish individuals whose mental and cultural levels vary according to the societies in which they lived before the Zionist movement implemented its plan by pushing them to separate from their societies in which they lived, whether European or Arab. And the arrangement of their settlement immigration to Palestine, and this is one of the aspects on which the division between them is based.
Now, this ethnic disparity and difference of national origin on the one hand, and between those fundamentalist religious Zionist and secular liberal currents on the other hand, constitutes the interface of the dispute and conflict that exists today between their components, in addition to the factor of class differences that began to widen in Israeli Jewish society without being the cause of those conflicts. The subject of oppression of our people or the continuation of colonial occupation.
Describing the conflict today or limiting it to Jerusalem for its historical and political importance along with its religious Arab heritage meanings for us, or highlighting it as a religious struggle over the entitlement and identity of the holy places only constitutes a great danger that leads to being dragged behind their own religious justifications, as well as obscuring the reality of the struggle for existence on the ground and the meaning and essence of it. Zionism, and hinders the exposing of the racist occupation state as an integrated whole and the resistance of its policies as a settler-replacement entity in all of Palestine with an expansionist function and as a strategic colonial base for the West.
The escalating Israeli occupation measures aimed at imposing restrictions in order to prevent our people from accessing the places of worship in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and participating in the ceremonies for the Sabbath of the Appearance of Light from the Church of the Holy Sepulcher this Saturday, which coincided with the occupation measures in storming the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque and practicing the worst forms of repression During the month of Ramadan and before, the settlers’ incursions aimed at confirming their alleged Talmudic biblical vision, on which the Zionist idea was based mainly.
Therefore, attempts to agree on determining the numbers of worshipers and prayer times serve only the idea of spatial and temporal division, which gives a right to those who do not have it according to the facts of history and our presence on this earth.
Now, the various political changes taking place in the world and the start of reaching a new world order may bring justice to the peoples and their rights that were absent from American hegemony, and the true, racist, fascist image of the occupying state that was shown by the most extreme Zionist religious right-wing government in front of the friends of their state and even in front of liberal Jewish communities around the world and the exposure of liberal policies The abhorrent apartheid in the eyes of international public opinion has contributed, in addition to undermining the so-called common values between the United States and the occupying state, following the decisions of the Netanyahu government and the subsequent support of the United States to the opposition circles with the aim of saving and protecting the occupying state, which the American administration still needs as a reliable strategic ally. After its withdrawal from some areas of tension in the region on the one hand, and the speed of transformations and biases in the form of inter-Arab political relations themselves and with Iran on the other hand, the end of the Syrian boycott, the end of the Yemen war, and the emergence of new alliances after the rise of China and Russia to the forefront of the international scene, in addition to the expansion of the BRICS alliance and groupings. The new economic situation around the world, and the beginning of European demands for the independence of its political positions away from the vision of the American strategy, which is suffering a real crisis due to its proxy war with Ukraine and the decline in the status of its economy.
All these reasons are added, of course, to the escalation of the crisis and the erosion of the Israeli Jewish community and its complexities, the emergence of the problems of the security establishment, and the emergence of some signs of weakness in its deterrent power in the face of what may develop on the military side as a result of the political biases in the region after all the ongoing rapprochements ahead.
That all of this has put big question marks on how the direction of progress or decline in the role of the occupying state and its geopolitical position, and even raises doubts among their circles about the possibility of completing the implementation of their Zionist project in the face of the new situation in the region and pushes towards the emergence of factors of frustration and adverse immigration, contrary to what their vision was betting on. We have been devastated by the devastating frustration of our national liberation project.
In my opinion, this now constitutes an appropriate opportunity for us to mobilize our role and restore all our strengths as a national liberation movement to liquidate the essence of their racist colonial project, which requires building on the current changes, but before that restoring the confidence of our people in the components of their national struggle and expanding it to include all spectrums of our Palestinian society according to a clear vision, program and leadership tools It has influence, by implementing what the President previously announced of a call for a comprehensive national dialogue, as well as developing a state of influential and courageous action on all regional and international arenas to confront any attempts to tamper with the arena of our independent national decision and move away from the mirage of American economic and security solutions. As well as expanding the base of mass participation necessary to protect this through the democratic and popular activation of the role of our institutions and the holding of general elections, including in Jerusalem, as a natural right for all our people and as a weapon before the international community at a time when fascism is now practicing theocratic dictatorship in the colonial occupation state that is losing its status.
