FORSEA Critical Dialogue LIVE
The perennial violence in the Palestine is flaring up again. While violence that has been inflicted on civilians is deplorable, the focus on the immediate wave of violence is fixing the world’s attention on the symptom of the political cancer eating away at both Israeli and Palestinian national communities. That cancer is the long history of the ever-expanding colonial annexation of the Palestine by Britain’s implanted state of Zionist Israel.
Amidst inflamed emotions, violence begets violence while leaving this cancer unaddressed.
This FORSEA Dialogue will provide the desperately needed focus on the context and the drivers behind this vicious cycle of the violence by the Palestinian Liberation movements, from PLO to Hamas, and the counter-violence by the apartheid Jewish State, that set up Palestinian ghettos in West Bank and Gaza in its annexed Palestine while breaching all UN resolutions and international law.
