@Lana_Tatour : my project is my statehood, not creating a democracy in what is today Israel. My project is human emancipation which is about people and communities, not statehood

If change isn’t coming from within Israeli society it has to come from without - in other words BDS. But it’s impossible to persuade Israeli progressives that it’s the only possible strategy

Marcelo Svirsky : settlers in Israel will never understand that they need to be invited to stay and if you are progressive you cannot lead, you need to wait to be told what to do

@Lana_Tatour : Palestinian ppl fight for our right to land, not a piece of the cake within a Jewish Zionist context. Settlers demand political compromise and pragmatism from Palestinians. But we’ve tried that for 70 years and it hasn’t worked

As a Mizrachi my liberation depends on the Palestinian national liberation - Noy.

It’s a project of decolonisation allowing Mizrachis to reconnect to our region, to the Middle East

Her only intention is to put another - non-Zionist - option on the table. Mizrachihood as a different political option.

Orly Noy is answering @Lana_Tatour by saying that she does not intend to excuse Mizrachis. There is an ideological commitment but ideology emerges through the concrete situations in which Mizrachis were placed.

Svirsky asks Orly Noy what triggers her self reflection, not because he believes that the Israeli society can change. It cannot

Marcelo Svirsky: ppl outside Palestine think about what is happening in terms of what the government does, but this omits the everyday commitment of Israeli society to maintaining the occupation

The demographic presence of Arabs in Israel and Palestine exists - Mizrachis + Palestinians far out number ashkenazis. But we need to talk about the ideological commitment to the Zionist project that makes a combined struggle almost impossible

We like to think of the struggle as ‘co-resistance’ because it’s more positive and humanistic. It’s a beautiful vision which works theoretically. But we share systems of oppression but not in the same way

Refugees and migrants in Australia many not act in solidarity with Aboroginal ppl in Australia but their position vis a vis the Australian state cannot be compared to Jewish groups in Israel

All Jewish groups in Israel are integral to the Zionist project

Zionism is part of European settler colonialism and non white Jews were not originally incorporated into the Zionist project but they were eventually included and so Zionism cannot be boiled down to a deal with that devil

Lana Tatour: starts by acknowledging Gadigal country and that we all have responsibility for the decolonisation of this land. She is both an Indigenous Palestinian and a settler in Australia

Mizrachis are given the message that they will be tolerated in return for their loyalty to the white Zionist Jewish supremacist project. The promise of at least always being above the Palestinians, albeit never allowed in the living room of the villa!

At the protests about that murders by Israeli police of Ethiopians recently, Palestinians were not present bc they slogans were ‘why are you shooting us, we are not Arabs!!’

But if Mizrachis have been subject to similar treatment why have they not joined forces with the Palestinians?
