Film/Discussion--BEHIND THE ISRAEL GAZA CLASH - No to US-Israeli Oppression of the Palest

As part of this program we will be showing an excerpt from the Revolution Nothing Less! Show and an excerpt from the documentary Killing Gaza, a moving portrait of two million Palestinians under relentless and genocidal siege by Israel.

Discussion will follow.

At its heart, the current war between Israel and Palestinian Gaza is ultimately “provoked” by Israel’s utterly unjust takeover of Palestine, the exile of most of its people, and Israel’s oppressive rule over the millions of Palestinian people who remained there.

As the revcom.us article Behind the Israel Gaza Clash: ‘Indiscriminate Violence and Terrorism’—PERPETRATED BY ISRAEL AND ITS BACKER, U.S. CAPITALISM-IMPERIALISM makes clear: when it comes to the “indiscriminate violence” that the U.S. today so loudly and hypocritically condemns, nobody holds a candle to either America or its loyal ally Israel. Hamas is a reactionary Islamist organization, pursuing reactionary ends with reactionary, brutal means; yet the fact remains that Israel, and behind it the U.S., have done and continue every day to do the far greater damage, including robbing the Palestinian people of their homeland and their fundamental rights, and confining millions of them in the open-air prison that is Gaza.

The stand of people in this country must be to oppose the U.S. and its henchman Israel.

In the midst of this carnage and the danger of far worse... against the backdrop of a world situation of great upheaval and the growing threat of world war... the need for revolution cries out loudly.
