Israeli Settler Colonial Genocide

The article examines the combined violence of settler colonialism in Israel and the US in two parts. The first part discusses the Jewish supremacism at the heart of Israeli settler colonialism, focusing on Israel's genocide in Gaza since October 2023. It traces how genocidal rhetoric by state leaders, articulated in the language of Jewish supremacy, shaped the dynamics of violence on the ground, as documented by Israeli soldiers and officers in Gaza who described their own crimes in videos they recorded and uploaded to social media. The second part of the article addresses US settler colonialism as a key element in explaining the unconditional support that the US extends to Israel. This support now includes an unprecedented assault on documented reality and evidence. Senior administrators on university campuses in the US also partake in this Orwellian attack, though growing numbers of faculty and students continue to resist and insist on truth and justice - in Israel and in the US.
