I mean Boycotts aren't enough. We need to sanction the Zionist Reich wherever possible.

Exactly! Boycotting is only 1/3 of BDS, it won’t achieve anything but it’s useful in its own way

D would be enough for the empire to fall overnight, they're being kept around artificially. Everyone around them wants them gone, and not even their people support them. The instant the massive funding from the west dries up, natural forces will restore one secular Palestine.

There's a dialectic at play. Companies will divest themselves if the market dictates it. No shareholder will stick around if there bottom line is being hit because of an organised boycott. Likewise, it becomes easier to boycott when investors take their money to fund a competitor that isn't based in Israel. And national bourgeoisies will want to sanction Israel if being connected to it is hurting the portfolios of their ruling classes, also making it illegal not to boycott or divest.

Tying B, D, and S together is quite clever and must be analysed from a Marxist perspective rather than a bourgeois standpoint of linear progression. Which is to say that once there have been enough quantitative changes across B, D, or S (which changes can be uneven), we will see a qualitative leap across the board.

It will look like nothing much is happening for a long time. Then a decade will happen in a week. A week-long decade of Palestinian liberation.

Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
