Description

Written with clarity and insight, Gaza: The Politics of Genocide challenges the U.S./Israeli narrative involving Palestinian terrorism to expose a coherent policy of eradication being implemented by a nationalist right-wing regime in Israel and its American sponsor designed to create a second Nakba and establish Zionist exclusivity from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.

Piercing the web of atrocity propaganda and myriad justifications for war criminality, the author delivers a penetrating analysis of Israel’s genocidal response to Al-Aqsa Storm, the historical context of the Palestinian revolt, and the motivation for insurgency by locating resistance to Zionist expansionism within the historic struggle for independence from settler colonial subjugation, national oppression, and imperialism. The inquiry reveals how, like the mythical Phoenix, the Palestinian revolution has arisen from the ashes, time and again, to confront the apartheid state, its fighters sustained by the astonishing steadfastness of an indomitable people.

An exposé of U.S. involvement in the Palestinian genocide is provided that explores the role of American imperialism in defense of Israel, the political influence of the Zionist Power Configuration, and the inevitable collision between the politics of repression and the politics of dissent. The author concludes by identifying Gaza as a universal symbol of rebellion that rejects Western state terrorism, militarism, and selective morality in favor of social liberation.
