This is something I’ve wondered about but never really seen an official leftist position on, and it’s gotten a lot more relevant with the ongoing Palestinian uprising. Also curious if there is any good reading out there on this subject.

    POC leaving under a white supremacist settler state is different due to the state having an interest in them being displaced.

    The Palestinian state has a real interest in removing settlers from disputed territory. And practically every inch of Israel is in some kind of dispute. The negotiated territory lines were all compromises made while Palestine was in a weakened state.

    Even then, all of this is functionally a moot point, given that the Israeli response appears to be going full Korean War on the Gaza Strip. If the rest of the Middle Eastern states stand back and let this happen, its going to be a full blown genocide on national television.
