A community for everything related to West Asia, wrongly referred to as "The Middle East", and the imperialism currently underway by the imperialist force known as the United States of America.

We always take the sides of West Asia revolutionary forces and are unapologetic about it. The United States is an imperialist power that undermines the right of self-determination of West Asia, and has murdered millions of people in the area.

For the Israeli far right, as represented by the notorious Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, the ideology of “Greater Israel” puts Israeli expansionism in a religious context. But for Israel’s secular majority, its designs are much more grounded in simple dominance, aiming at an unprecedented level of hegemony in the Middle East.

During testimony at his trial on Tuesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made his view of the current regional situation clear, saying, “Something tectonic has happened here, an earthquake that hasn’t happened in the 100 years since the Sykes-Picot Agreement.”

Plainly, Netanyahu sees this moment as an opportunity to redraw the entire political map of the Middle East.
