The Anti-Colony: Falsely Labeling Israel

(Washington Times) Gerard Leval - "Colonialization" is the new mortal sin, the physical manifestation of the evil wrought by White oppressors on the unfortunate oppressed. The current focus of this obsession is Israel, deemed a Western colony on Arab land. Yet the notion that Israel is a colony is contrary to reality. The most widely accepted definition of a "colony" is a territory seized and controlled by people from another territory, usually involving the displacement of indigenous peoples. But Israel is not a colony by any definition. Israel is a nation made up of the descendants of indigenous people who have regained control of land from those who took the land by force from their ancestors. Its founders did not seek to create an outpost for a distant society. It is assuredly not a group of people who have sought to settle in a new place; the Jews have returned to their old homeland. Israel is the anti-colony. They do not seek to retain political ties to other countries. On the contrary, the Zionist movement is predicated on inducing Jews to definitively leave the land of their exile to return to the land of their ancestors.
