Palestinians live under anarchy- they have “no state” (neither formally nor materially), and exist as a population that is dispossessed and exploited by one of the most powerful states in the 21st century. This is why the Palestinian struggle is one for national liberation.

@Prof_FSultana @MuriamDavis Not just foreign policy. Rather Islamophobia is a central foundation of conquistador US/Canada settlecolonialism since 1492 given Andalusia & Columbus’ mission. Settlercolonialism is a religious anti-indigenous, anti-black, anti-Muslim & anti-poc crusading structure at its core.
