THE world is not in a good place, to put it mildly. Economically, geopolitically, democratically, in terms of human rights and in respect for the rule of law – with even how we respect and cherish human lives and civilians now being eroded and ignored.
The tragedy unfolding in Israel and Palestine has been an open wound for decades and its ugly explosion is exposing long-standing fault-lines and fissures that were always going to emerge in the absence of justice, democracy and a Palestinian state.UK political and media commentary are frozen in an aspic of lack of history and comprehension, combined with an identification of elites with Israel as a state and strategic partner.
A view framing and tarnishing hundreds of thousands of decent-minded people wanting to identify with the Palestinian cause. Admittedly Phillips did, when questioning Tory Oliver Dowden, deputy PM, challenge him on the odious language of Suella Braverman who has called such public gatherings “hate marches”.
Step forward the role of the British Empire and British Empire state. It was the UK which created the administrative territory called “Palestine” in 1920 following the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. It invented an imagined entity drawing on both Biblical and romantic notions and imposed these on a territory which had been previously divided up into three Ottoman provinces.
He argued that we must understand the implications of this global syndrome and the processes it has unleashed and left us with. These include comprehending the dynamics from “within” those territories and “without” . We have to talk about the injustices of 1948 and 1967, the wrongs of 75 years of denying Palestinian statehood and the 56 years of illegal Israeli occupation. But this has to be done in a way which embraces a principled anti-imperialism which does not use glib phrases such as “from the river to the sea” and avoids anything which does not recognise Israel’s right to exist or undermines the Palestinian cause.
