I'm tired of seeing bougie zionists in my country playing the holocaust card and victimizing themselves, blaming hamas for everything. But at the same time I don't have a solid grasp on what has concretely Israel done, like a record of crimes comitted by the State, an insight of Israeli plans for the occupation and land seizing from Palestine, the class relation between Israel and Palestinians or a history of the liberation movements, specially the PFLP.

Also I'd very much like a left-leaning (hopefully marxist) analysis on the matter. I didn't know where to start searching and this community seemed like the right place uwu

    In my PSL reading group we read through Palestine, Israel and the US Empire by Richard Becker. It was really great and a super easy read. Or well it was actually pretty horrifying to read but it wasnt written in very academic language

    He's obviously not a Marxist and I know Robert Evans gets shit on here a lot but the most recent episodes of Behind the Bastards are a pretty good summary of the history of Palestine and Israeli occupation going back to its roots in the late 19th century. The two latest episodes definitely cover the crimes committed by the state and offer insight into the intent behind the occupation and land seizure.
