Zionism and US Imperialism, Peoples Conference for Palestine

Since its inception, Zionism has enjoyed significant support from imperial powersfirst the British who colonized and delivered Palestine to Zionist settlers, and then the resourcehungry United States, keen on expanding its scope of power across the world. In exchange for acting as a proxy power for advancing US interests in the region, the Zionist project receives unconditional political and military aid. The mass movement for Palestine has exposed the shared agenda between US imperialism and Zionism throughout the past seven months, firmly charging the United States with the genocide of the Palestinian people. This session will deepen our analysis of the socalled special friendship between the U. S. and Israeli State as one rooted in racist state violence domestically and global domination abroad. Speakers: Richard Becker, Sara Kershnar, Yara Shoufani, Rabab Abdulhadi Moderator: Layan Fuleihan
