Must See: Israeli Journalist Gideon Levy on Israel’s Mental Problem

https://www.algora.com/Algora_blog/2023/11/10/must-see-israeli-journalist-gideon-levy-on-israels-mental-problem

Israeli journalist Gideon Levy: Israeli society has surrounded itself with shields, walls, not only physical, but also mental. I will simply give three principles that allow us Israelis to live easily in this harsh reality.

First. Most, if not all, Israelis deeply believe that we are the chosen people. And if we are the chosen people, we have the right to do whatever we want.

Second. There have been more brutal occupations in history. There have been longer occupations in history. But never in history has there been an occupation in which the occupier presented himself as a victim. The other day Professor Falk spoke about this double strategy of Israel: to be a victim on the one hand and to manipulate on the other.

And finally, I come to the third set of values ​​that allow us Israelis to live in peace with occupation. This is perhaps the most important and worst of them. And this is the systematic dehumanization of Palestinians.

Because if they are not like us, then there can be no talk of human rights. And if you scratch every Israeli, you will find it there. Almost no one will treat the Palestinians as equal people, as themselves. After all, how many Israelis have ever tried to put themselves even for a moment in the shoes of the Palestinians, for a moment, for a day?

Rape has played a role in the ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians since 1948. Many families fled their homes over concerns their women would be raped by Zionist forces. Unlawfully detained Palestinian political prisoners are also subjected to rape and torture. There are several prominent detailed accounts from prominent Palestinian women, among them freed prisoners who have documented the deliberate use of rape and sexual torture against them.

#Nations don't get rich by plundering other nations

source: https://www.noahpinion.blog/p/nations-dont-get-rich-by-plundering

Anyway, there are two more sophisticated cases you can make for the “imperial plunder” #theory of national wealth. The first is that continuing plunder is responsible for income differences between countries. The second is that plunder was necessary to initiate the process that eventually led to industrial #production and modern science. The first of these arguments is wrong; the second can’t easily be disproven, but there’s major reason for doubt.

Nations don't get rich by plundering other nations

National wealth comes from ingenuity, hard work, good institutions, sound policy, political stability, and openness to foreign ideas and investment.

2024 Anniversary: The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, (43 Stat. 253, enacted June 2, 1924) was an Act of the United States Congress that granted U.S. citizenship to the indigenous peoples of the United States. While the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution defines a citizen as any persons born in the United States and subject to its laws and jurisdiction, the amendment had previously been interpreted by the courts not to apply to Native peoples. — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Citizenship_Act
