Ofer Cassif, long opponent of zionism suspended for six months from Israel’s Parliament (Knesset) for his opposition the genocide being carried out and his support for South Africa’s case to the International Court of Justice. Within the litany of culpabilities is the […] ‘undermining the State of Israel’s ability’ to counter allegations of genocide.”

He notes: “if a cause terrifies (Netanyahu) more than the Palestinian resistance — it is the partnership of Jews and Palestinians. They want to destroy that cause as part of destroying the Palestinians as a people, to eliminate all civil rights, and turn Israel into a definite dictatorship.”

This fascinating interview provides valuable insights into his history his stand and the obstacles that all who stand for justice and equality and, of course, socialism, in Israel and Palestine face. That he and many others will not give up is a small and important strand of hope for a better future but that hope needs the support and actions of the international community.
