The imprisoned Roger Hallam believes that resistance is not, ultimately, about what we can or cannot achieve. It is about a “re-enchantment of the world,” he says. “It is about our spirit taking center stage.”
The Hamas incursion was less Israel’s 9/11 and more a Palestinian Tet Offensive, says John Wight. No ugly oppression has ever given rise to a pretty resistance.
Hamas’ Oct. 7 operation laid waste to Israel’s belief that Palestinians can be siphoned off into Bantustans while the colonizing state enjoys peace and expansion, writes Tareq Baconi.
Israel follows the colonial playbook. Death for death. Atrocity for atrocity. But it is always the occupier who initiates this macabre dance and trades piles of corpses for higher piles of corpses.
