今年3月まで京都大学教授で4月から早稲田大学に籍を移された岡真理さんが京都で長いこと孤軍奮闘されていたおかげで、私は岡教授の著書を読むだけでなくシンポジウムや研究会で直にお話を伺う機会を得られ(何年前だったか京大院に留学していたパレスチナ人学生からの言葉も聴けた)、『ナクバ』乃至それ以前からのパレスチナ近現代史を正しい視点で見る目を鍛えることができました。
まぁイギリス伝統の三枚舌外交とかあれども、事の本質は藤沢さんが書かれているように
- イスラエルは欧州のシオニストが植民して作った国
- シオニズムは欧州に同化していた非宗教的ユダヤ人が宗教を利用して作った植民運動
であり、建国時のイスラエル植民者やイスラエル国民(≠ユダヤ人)による不健全な建国と領土の拡張が最たる根源でしょう。
私のイチ押し本、イラン・パペ『パレスチナの民族浄化――イスラエル建国の暴力』と早尾貴紀『パレスチナ/イスラエル論』は増刷中だそうです。
イスラエルのネタニヤフ首相「我々は光の人々で、彼らは闇の人々なのです」

これはヤバいネタニヤフの演説。イラン、ヒズボラ、ハマスを「悪の枢軸」と呼び、ユダヤ人は「光の人々」、ハマスらは「闇の人々」で光の人々は闇の人々に勝利する、今こそイザヤの予言を成就させる時だ、とのこと。 https://t.co/MBnauqVuhs

わかりませんか?ガザに対するイスラエルの爆撃を支持している国はみな欧州の国か、欧州の人々が植民して作った国です。イスラエルは欧州のシオニストが植民して作った国です。この一方的な爆撃そのものが明白なレイシズム、白人優越主義の現れです。 https://t.co/ttb4yDtR1w

ネタニヤフの演説(一部)
「我々は光の民であり、彼らは闇の民だ。光の民が闇の民に勝利する」
「我々はイザヤの預言を実現する」シオニズムは欧州に同化していた非宗教的ユダヤ人が宗教を利用して作った植民運動。シオニストとユダヤ人を混同してはならない理由はこれ。https://t.co/01HCpgYOWm

Yesterday, on October 24, 2023, Israel's plans to expel Gaza's Palestinian population to Sinai, Egypt were leaked.
Not surprisingly, this plan has a decades long history and dates to at least 2004, if not earlier.
