A Materialist and Historical Examination of the Palestinian Question

In this article, an attempt is made to examine recent issues and the war between the fascist regime of Israel and the Islamic fascist faction Hamas from a Marxist perspective. As a communist defender of the oppressed, I aim to advocate for the liberation of the Palestinian people from the clutches of Islamic and Zionist fascism, as well as other imperialist alternatives within the framework of realpolitik. It should be noted that the recent conflict, which began on October 7, 2023, in response to Hamas’s crimes (including an attack on October 5, where they targeted a civilian party and arrested and executed non-combatants), is one of the wars that has seen Zionist fascism reunite amidst the corruption of Netanyahu. Widespread racial hatred against Palestinians exists in Israeli society, and there has been a convergence of governments and realpolitik parties from both the left and right, along with fascist elements in European parliaments.

These circumstances have paved the way for the establishment of an absolute military government in Israel and the criminalization of political activities associated with the Palestinian people in ostensibly democratic Western countries. Consistently, across multiple instances (in 2008, 2012, 2014, 2021, 2022, and this recent conflict in October 2023), the fascist Hamas movement has provided a pretext for the occupying Israeli regime to bombard the people of Gaza. The primary victims of these airstrikes are not the children of Hamas leaders residing in comfortable Western locations; instead, they are workers, laborers, children, and elderly individuals who have been ensnared by Zionist fascism and Islamic barbarism and fascism within the world’s largest open-air prison—the Gaza Strip.

In this regard, it is necessary to mention that as a communist fighter who is defending the right to self-determination which is a fundamental principle of international law and applies to the fate of the Palestinian people (meaning they need to determin thier fate) and an opponent of Islamic and Zionist fascism, I consider any defense of Israel by anyone or any force as a complicity and a crime beyond any crime. My stance is similar and applies to any alignment with Hamas, which I view it as a microscopic fascist entity. The only difference between the fascist and imperialist occupier regime of Israel and Hamas movement lies in the scale and dimensions of the atrocities committed.

If Hitler’s Nazi regime turned the world into hell for humanity during its 12-year reign, the fascist Israeli regime has systematically perpetrated mass killings of Palestinians since May 14, 1938—the day of Nakba. They forcibly displace Palestinians from their land and, if they resist, subject them to death and bombardment. It is interesting that a group of Europeans, known as left-liberals or ‘vegans’ (romantic cannibals), make statements such as: ‘Israeli soldiers wear vegan attire’ or ‘There is no execution in Israel.’ to absolve their conscience from a fascist torment: a torment inflicted upon six million Palestinians who have been displaced by the occupier Israeli regime and thousands of children incinerated by this occupier in the flames of war.

From a Western perspective, it seems that killing a human is only considered inhumane when it happens up close—when someone’s throat is slit with a knife or they are executed and hanged. However, when humans are collectively executed through bombings, the “humanitarian” sensibilities of European killers remain untouched. It is not without reason that Frantz Fanon stated that those who have spoken most about humanity have killed more humans than anyone else.

This article briefly examines the Jewish question and the recent developments. While part of the content was written during the opening of the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem under Trump, I have omitted repeating old statements.

I dedicate this piece to all those who stand against fascism—whether European, Zionist, or Islamic—and refuse to remain silent in the face of oppression and tyranny, even if it means risking their jobs and things like that.
