Rathbone and Chris Jeffries critique Zionist arguments for Jewish claims to the land in Israel, particularly those based on biblical rights. They argue that using the Bible to justify ethnic cleansing is illogical and dismiss the UN’s 1947 partition plan, which they claim favored Zionist settlers and forced Palestinian Arabs to flee. The speakers also discuss early Zionist involvement in terrorist organizations like the Irgun and Lehi, which committed massacres against Palestinians that expanded Israeli control, and challenge Israel’s right to defend itself against Hamas rockets in occupied territory. The speakers draw parallels to historical resistance against oppression and emphasize material conditions as the root cause of conflict.

Rath really has great takes on a lot of things, I’ll probably watch this tomorrow. Still pissed at him for admitting he doesn’t tip when he goes to restaurants though, real Dbag energy in the way he defended himself from people rightly calling out that the solution to the tipping problem is not going to tipped restaurants, not shorting the wait staff making $2/hr.
