00:01:07Hello, I'm Chris Williamson, and this is Palestine
00:01:10of Declassified, where we focus on the international struggle to liberate Palestine
00:01:13of and a expose Israel's efforts to manipulate the political class and corporate
00:01:17media. In today's show, we'll be considering the impact of
00:01:20motion that was adopted by the Green Party of England and Wales at their recent
00:01:24conference in Brighton, which clearly stated that Zionism is
00:01:28racism. The motion. called for an end to
00:01:31of administrative detention, the depreption of palestine action as a terrorist
00:01:35organization and the release of all palestinian prisoners of conscience,
00:01:39including Marwan
00:01:40a Bagucci. of We'll be discussing the significance
00:01:43of the green party's decision after this report on the background to this
00:01:46momentous political milestone and the fallout
00:01:49afterwards.
00:01:52Zionism is racism. That was the resolution passed by
00:01:56the green party of England and Wales and its autumn conference.
00:02:00early October, the binding resolution passed by
00:02:031022 votes to 813.
00:02:07It was proposed by Lubn Speton, a British
00:02:11of Palestinian member of Greens for Palestine. The text
00:02:14of the resolution defines zionism as,
00:02:18of quote, a
00:02:19in political ideology, and quote, and sought and now seeks to
00:02:23maintain an ethno-nationalist drew state in historic
00:02:27Palestine to the exclusion and or domination
00:02:30of the non-jewish population, it says that zionism
00:02:34privileges one group on the basis
00:02:37of the subjugation
00:02:38of the others and has produced aparthyite
00:02:41regime. the conference resolved that
00:02:44zinanism should be treated as
00:02:46of any other form of racism and that the green party is an
00:02:50anti-zionist party. the resolution also
00:02:54supports a single democratic palestinian state across historic
00:02:58Palestine with Jerusalem as its
00:03:01capital and the right of return for Palestinians and their
00:03:05descendants. It reaffirms the need for
00:03:08of boycott, of divestment and sanctions and a full arms
00:03:11embargo, and it supports the
00:03:14of Palestinian right to resist occupation.
00:03:17Despite over three years of genocide in
00:03:22of of Gaza, the green party is the first mainstream British political party to pass
00:03:25a resolution like this, a sign that attitudes even
00:03:28of in the heart of global. imperialism are changing, but the
00:03:32zionist did not waste any time in launching attacks
00:03:36just as they had in
00:03:38in of the months leading up to the vote. Israel's foreign ministry called the
00:03:42of resolution
00:03:42a clear anti-semitic text and legitimized Israel's
00:03:48a of destruction, banning the green party's Jewish leader Zak Polansky from entering the zionist
00:03:52entity. further more Britain's
00:03:55of chief rabbi Eframe Mervis called the motion poisonous
00:03:59of antisemitism. and a threat to British Jews. The board of
00:04:02deputies in Israel lobby group said the greens had become an
00:04:06extremist party and that the vote was attack on the
00:04:10Jewish community. Moreover, the European green
00:04:13party, umbrella group for green parties across Europe,
00:04:17unequivocally distance itself from the
00:04:20resolution. But the resolution was not
00:04:23of just opposed by outsiders. Four
00:04:25of the green party's five members of parliament had also
00:04:29expressed. opposition to the motion before the vote even took
00:04:32place and other green party grandes came out to condemn it
00:04:36after it passed. in spite
00:04:39of the intense backlash, the resolution sends a clear
00:04:42message that zionism is racist
00:04:46of ideology and must be opposed, not just the actions
00:04:49of the
00:04:50of zianist
00:04:51a regime. well, joining me to discuss this groundbreaking move by the
00:04:55green party is the author and political commentator Dr. Ashot
00:04:59Kumar. "who's a reader in political
00:05:01of economy at Burtbeck University of London and he's also a prominent green
00:05:05party activist and I'm
00:05:07of joined as
00:05:07of usual
00:05:07by our resident expert in the UK's leading scholarly critic of Israel David
00:05:11Miller. David's also..." co-director the Lobby Watch Dog Spinwatch and a
00:05:14senior research fellow at the Center for Islam and Global Affairs, Istanbul Zayim
00:05:18University. Welcome to the show. Well, I shock.
00:05:21I mean, what's the broader impact that you expect the green party's decision
00:05:25to have? I mean, there's been quite a strong backlash in certain quarters,
00:05:29but despite that, do you think the tide is turning against zionism as
00:05:33an the tide is turning against zionism as an
00:05:35idea? Yeah, I mean uh,
00:05:39was
00:05:41you know, essentially the... get to the core the problem,
00:05:44this is we didn't want to take a piece meal approach, we
00:05:48felt like the approach of just simply
00:05:51identifying either our role in arms or our role
00:05:55in surveillance, and that's a peacemeal approach, and we wanted to
00:05:59talk and and instigate a conversation in the public
00:06:02arena about the
00:06:06ideological basis
00:06:09for the occupation, but also... so it wasn't
00:06:13just it was also to reanimate the motion from
00:06:17the UN in the 1970s and it was also
00:06:20about um there were other bits
00:06:24to it like that were very important like we becoming an
00:06:27official kind of a antizionist
00:06:31party was the first in the western world that
00:06:35we wanted to initiate that because we wanted to basically say
00:06:39there's no middle ground here
00:06:41you know there's colonialism is evil, slavery is
00:06:45evil, settler colonialism is evil, racism is
00:06:48evil, and therefore this designism, as it's
00:06:52materialized in Israel is
00:06:56racism, and therefore must be condupt as an
00:07:00ideology, so it became very important for
00:07:03us to be very lucid and clear in
00:07:07that approach, and even beyond that that
00:07:11definition and that identification and I think these are
00:07:15quite important things, but they were always they were being dismissed as um
00:07:18abstract uh, even by some people that
00:07:22recognize the importance these so-called abstract discussions,
00:07:26so it's um, it goes beyond that by
00:07:30saying we believe a single
00:07:33state uh from the river to the sea with equal rights for
00:07:37all, the right of return, that's what it identified here, which is in
00:07:40shrined in
00:07:41the UN, and um the
00:07:45recognizes
00:07:45the UN court conventions right
00:07:47like you element
00:07:51that says that occupied people have a right to
00:07:55resist and stands in full
00:07:58solidarity with palestinian prisoners and calls for the deprescription of
00:08:02palestini action and the release of those prisoners so there is no sort
00:08:06of um middle ground for us on this,
00:08:10it's it's very clear that ' we in part
00:08:13want to shift the um the the the
00:08:17levels of solidarity and humanity that we
00:08:20recognize in palestinians, all of which is really sort of
00:08:24entirely defendable under the UN core conventions and
00:08:27even refugee conventions etc. so international
00:08:30law,
00:08:32so it's not outside the bounds of that, but it's become unacceptable even talk about
00:08:35that, and we also wanted to make sure that we separate
00:08:39judaism from zionism, that conflation to us
00:08:43uh hurts Palestinians, hurts Jewish
00:08:47people, um, and so this was actually in so many
00:08:50directions attempting to do that, and is is attempting to do
00:08:54that, and we we think that we want to have a real
00:08:57conversation about the source the violence, and that source is
00:09:01zonism. Well, David, I mean, the resolution that's been
00:09:05adopted by the green party defines Zionism as an
00:09:08ethonationalist racist project that should be obvious obviously.
00:09:12to everyone now, but I mean this is a pretty big step isn't it for the
00:09:16green party to take? well, I guess it's been coming a
00:09:20long time, hasn't it? I mean, we saw about year and a half
00:09:24ago now, maybe two years ago um
00:09:28as artana issuing the declaration, I'm an
00:09:31anti-zionist, and then of course we saw uh
00:09:35Jeremy Kobran refusing to say he was an anti-sionist
00:09:37and then later on quite quite quietly saying that he was an anti-sionist, then we
00:09:41saw... Zak Kolansky, even saying that he was an
00:09:44antizionist at the same time as he effectively said that he
00:09:48wasn't going to vote for the motion, so it's been a long time coming and but
00:09:52it is historic, it's the first mainstreamish party to
00:09:56take such a position and uh of course the uh the whole
00:10:00world is collapsed in horror and pearl clutching as
00:10:04result, so yes it's a it's a first step, it's the beginning and it's
00:10:08a serious motion, it's not just motion which says we are
00:10:11anti-zionist. without having any content to that motion, which of
00:10:15course was the criticism leveled at Zara Sultana was that she just said
00:10:19she was an anticionist actually saying what she meant by that now this
00:10:23motion sets out quite clearly. what's meant by that written uh, it
00:10:27seems largely by a Palestinian woman called Lna Spason
00:10:30who is frankly hero of of our movement now
00:10:34uh so yes it's it's a very significant step but of course we need to build on
00:10:38it we need to build on it most obviously by dismantaling zonism as an
00:10:42ideology and as movement in this country yes
00:10:45and you alluded to the backlash there
00:10:49the the zionist colonies now banned
00:10:52zak Polansky from from entering and yet the qu'... happy to have all manner
00:10:56of unsaver characters entering the the territory, what
00:11:00do you make of that? well, the issues are
00:11:03list didn't the the other week when Andy Burnum
00:11:07introduced his milk toast sanctions
00:11:10policy, so they issued a list of of MPs who were now banned,
00:11:14including Jeremy Corard of course, and the green party
00:11:17MPs, some them, but of
00:11:20course, almost all them are, I think all them are
00:11:23scientists - only the only exact Velansky has said he's an antizionis
00:11:27and it's open to question what that actually means in terms of
00:11:31his understanding of politics, because when he's talked about zionism, he's been
00:11:35one the ones
00:11:36who's who's adopted this effectively zionist position, oh there are a
00:11:39variety of sorts of zionism, some people just yearn in their hearts for
00:11:43a homeland, and isn't it terrible that their yearning is called racist? well no,
00:11:47it's it's a racist ideology, yearning to replace the indigenous
00:11:51population of Palestine with a Jewish colony called...
00:11:55homeland if you like is still a racist proposition whether you do it
00:11:59or not
00:11:59and of course it it does require you to do it and of course that's what the zinest movement
00:12:03did as people have been saying it's the practice in the zionist movement which is the important
00:12:07thing
00:12:07and in practice what they did was they removed the uh the palestine
00:12:11population and of course they continue to commit genocide against them yes of
00:12:15course of course of course and i think
00:12:17you know zack is probably on something of a journey bause his position is is hardened i think over
00:12:21the over the last sort of few weeks or so well obviously further to
00:12:25go, but let's see how that develops, but shock, I mean the the motion
00:12:29supports the the right of return for
00:12:32Palestinians as well as backing the boycott divestments and and
00:12:36sanctions campaign, and also calls for a full arms embargo too.
00:12:40I mean, do you think these legitimate demands will have an impact on the over
00:12:43to window? well, I mean, I think that those
00:12:47demands uh, it reiterated
00:12:51some demands, but those most of those existed.
00:12:55uh within party policy already, so we had already, we have an full
00:12:59arms embargo as part of our, we already call it genocide, we already want a
00:13:03full economic sanctions, we already want divestment, before
00:13:07this motion was heard, there were separate motions, demotions that were about the
00:13:11internal policies the party, so we we also in our own decision making
00:13:15as a party would be would implement bds, boycott
00:13:18investment sanctions, which passed almost unanimously, and
00:13:22then we also had motion to
00:13:27prioritize with the councils that we run and councils across
00:13:30the country that we prioritize divestment in those councils,
00:13:34which passed almost unanimously, so that's existed for years and years,
00:13:38that's a policy that we've been pushing for years and years and actually central more
00:13:42than any other policy since 2024, i'd
00:13:45say the rise the green party into
00:13:492025 and sixfold increase from 50,000 to about
00:13:5225000 is directly. to palestine and our
00:13:55policies around palestine and the the
00:13:59groutes policies of this government and now the burnum government it's continuing
00:14:02that with some minor adjustments so those policies
00:14:06already existed and when you talk about the overturn window i think the zionism
00:14:10question and the right to resist question
00:14:14and the zinanism is racism and the antiism as official
00:14:18policy and the like single state and the right of
00:14:21return those policies are about tr trying to
00:14:25shift
00:14:25the terms of debate, the overton windows you could call it, or
00:14:28the the part
00:14:31of to make a direct intervention, not only in discourse,
00:14:34but the popular imaginary and the popular
00:14:37consciousness, but as much as one can as a party
00:14:41with five mps, not an insignificant party, large third
00:14:45largest party in the country, but i would
00:14:49say that if you um and so for those who say
00:14:53oh these are symbolic measures or whatever? "we are a party
00:14:57that isn't in government and we're nowhere near government, in
00:15:01essence, in essence, other than the stuff we do
00:15:04internally and the stuff we push for in councils and you know we control a
00:15:08number of councils especially in London, you could say all
00:15:12of our policies are symbolic, you could say that, they're all
00:15:15interventions, they're all public interventions, they're all trying
00:15:19to shift the political
00:15:22window, and so this is trying to do..." that in
00:15:26that in that um in that uh
00:15:29tradition, well David, as expected, the the zinish
00:15:33regime as well as its UK assets, including Britain's chief rabbi
00:15:37and the... board of deputies swiftly mobilized to attack this
00:15:41move by the green party, didn't they? but it's important isn't it, i think
00:15:44emphasize that, this is just another coordinated
00:15:48smear campaign, and it's not an organic response, is
00:15:52it? well, no, of course it's a coordinated smear
00:15:55campaign, but let's remember that the the majority the Jewish
00:15:59population in this country is zionist of of one sort or
00:16:03another, of course there are arguments about how many people are turning away from
00:16:07zionist. whether that's increasing or not, but but all of organized jury is
00:16:11officially and and openly zionist, including of course the board of
00:16:14deputies, the Jewish leadership council and all the other organizations as well,
00:16:18so I saw people perclutching about this saying, oh it's terrible on
00:16:22the day when the largest massacre of Jews since the holocaust meeting October
00:16:26the 7th has happened that they are demonstrating against Jews, well no, none
00:16:30of that, none of that happened, this is not a massacer of Jews on on
00:16:33October the 7th and whether it's larger or...
00:16:37than anything and of course the they're not demonstrating against Jews, they're
00:16:41demonstrating against the board of deputies of british Jews, which is an openly
00:16:45genocidal zionist organization, it says in its own documents that it
00:16:48coordinates closely with the ministry of foreign affairs, with the
00:16:51IDF and and of course with the the the zianist prime
00:16:55minister's office, this is a genocidal organization which ought to be
00:16:59shut down, the chief rabbi himself he trained
00:17:02in two separate yashivas in occupied
00:17:06pass and both of which... or hezder yeshivas, which means that you
00:17:10you do part of your time studying torah and part of your time
00:17:14killing palestinian children in the in training in the IDF, so these
00:17:18people have got nothing to lecture us about, no absolutely
00:17:22not, I mean, I think certainly we know don't we that zianists have
00:17:25a pontion for hyperboly, I mean you mentioned the
00:17:29the the chief rabbi, I mean got a quote from him here, I mean he said that
00:17:33uh, this is chief rabbim mervis, he said that.
00:17:37ocean um represented poisonous anti-semitism
00:17:41and a threat to British Jews, and you mentioned the the board of deputies of
00:17:45well and they're claiming now that
00:17:47the the green party is an extremist party
00:17:49and even the European green party, the umbrella uh
00:17:53organization for green parties across Europe has has sort of distanced
00:17:57itself hasn't it from unequivocally in fact it distanced
00:18:01itself from from the move, so it certainly caused a bit of fauller
00:18:04hasn't it? yeah, I mean it's a weiris isn't it? right back in
00:18:082018 with the campaign against Jeremy Corbin and of course if
00:18:12you remember what happened then was Corbin apologized,
00:18:16hunker down, said nothing, his advisers, his advisor said till all
00:18:20blow over by christmas of course it didn't all blow over and they got
00:18:24rid of him
00:18:25and that of course is the the decision which the activists in the green party and
00:18:28the greens from palestine are going to have to uh work
00:18:32on now is are they going to back off try and stay
00:18:36silent see if it will blow? or are they going to go full tilt
00:18:40uh at the at the zionists and say no, you are
00:18:43racists, your movement needs to be demobilized and
00:18:47dismantled, and that means not just in Palestine, but in this country too, every
00:18:50single one the 4,00 or so zionist organizations in the
00:18:54UK must be demobilized, dismantled and cease to
00:18:58exist, it's perfectly easy for them to do
00:19:00that, even today any
00:19:04Jewish youth group, any Jewish school, any Jewish synego. could say
00:19:08actually
00:19:09the the zionist have gone too far, the genocide is appalling, we resigned from the
00:19:13zionist movement, any one them could do that, not a single organization has done so in the
00:19:17last three years, the moment is now, no, indeed,
00:19:21I mean, you think that would be the minimum
00:19:24frankly that that that should be done, but but I shock,
00:19:28I mean the the zinish regime and the German greens and
00:19:32much the British corporate media have have treated the motion
00:19:35as anti-semitism. as an anti-semitism scandal even. I
00:19:39mean, what, what do you say about this manufactured
00:19:42Furory? Well, I think that that is
00:19:46something we're attempting to um, combat
00:19:49directly, with confidence and
00:19:51clarity. Um, you know,
00:19:54it's, it's anti-semitic to
00:19:57blame all Jewish people for the crimes the Israeli
00:20:01government, and that is something Zinis attempt to
00:20:04do, because if you...
00:20:07to attach it to people's identity, becomes such inbuilt sort
00:20:11of defense mechanism, one, it makes
00:20:14people defend crimes even if they
00:20:18know them to be wrong, and two, you, it
00:20:21allows for people to say, any criticism of
00:20:25zinanism is in effect the criticism of Judaism, and so that's
00:20:29essentializing, it's it
00:20:32hurts palestinians, but it also hurts jewish
00:20:35people, so we're trying. trying really
00:20:39as patiently and as deliberately as possible to draw
00:20:43that distinction and that was one the goals the motion as
00:20:45well. um, it's difficult to combat
00:20:49these. uh claims, but we're trying to
00:20:53learn from the past
00:20:55and not be apologetic
00:20:59for our anti-racist politics, that's what this is, this is
00:21:03anti-racist in every direction. well, David, I mean, what,
00:21:06what
00:21:08do you make the other political parties in Britain and we've talked about the, the
00:21:12fall out across Europe and all the rest
00:21:14of it, but parties in Britain have been falling over themselves, haven't they to condemn
00:21:18the Greek party
00:21:19for officially that zinanism is racism. um, I
00:21:23mean, what do you think that says about the the limits of
00:21:26electoral antinism in Britain? the of course this is
00:21:30a full court press, all the mainstream media, and indeed some the independent
00:21:34media attacking this, this wasn't the right time, it's a
00:21:37diversion, let's not talk about racism, all this is academic
00:21:41discussion, all this nonsense that is coming out the mouths of people you should know
00:21:45better as well as the ones who of course don't know better uh, but
00:21:49that's the same with
00:21:50the the political system political system is uh is bought and paid
00:21:54for by the zionist movement, there is no MP in the house of
00:21:58commons standing up on regular basis in
00:22:01densionism, and of course most the parties are
00:22:04almost all the parties are, we've even had green party mps
00:22:08effectively condemning the motion and not supporting it, and of
00:22:12course that that's what will happen as we go forward, if the the movement
00:22:16allows it or it fails to combat them -
00:22:20the MPs in charge the green party will quietly abolish this policy by
00:22:24fiat and of course that's not that's not within the rules the party but that's what they'll
00:22:28do but every other party is sionist party is
00:22:32explicitly signed up designism and that that's what you
00:22:35expect the whole the whole system is now coming down on the greens and if they can
00:22:39withstand this pressure then we will will start to see the growing
00:22:43of anticius ideas in my case you will
00:22:46recall
00:22:47we we won the position a court case and then an appeal at that court case
00:22:51establishing the legal principle that it's illegal to uh discriminate
00:22:55against antizionis and now we're seeing this moving through the political system.
00:22:58antizionism is newly popular, newly respectable and people are starting to
00:23:02understand what it means. of course what will happen is that it will throw their part
00:23:06through their toys out the prim and see this woman, this
00:23:10woman who's drafted this this motion is calling for us all to be
00:23:13killed, she's only calling for ass to be killed if you misquote what she says
00:23:17and don't understand what she's saying, it's a nonsense. of course that's what they will try and
00:23:21do, no, I'm sure they will, and indeed are
00:23:25trying to already do that, but I mean this
00:23:28has all very strong echos of of what happened
00:23:31to the labour party under Jeremy Corbin when he
00:23:35was the the leader, I mean that you know the furori, the manufactured
00:23:39furori that was created, the whole anti-semitism scam is
00:23:43is kind of it's on repeat isn't it, they're trying to do the same thing here, I
00:23:47suppose the difference with the green party is that the...
00:23:50the uh the members seems to be more democratic
00:23:53organization, more so than what the labour party was, and in spite
00:23:57the some the resistance from senior figures in the party,
00:24:01the members of of parliament, members still pushed this onto the agenda,
00:24:05pushed it up the agenda, there was all sorts of efforts as I understand it because I was down at the
00:24:09green party conference to to delay uh discussion of
00:24:13it, but they the members insisted on it being debated, they
00:24:17managed to vote down all the uh wrecking. amendments and
00:24:21and it carried the day, I mean, do you see
00:24:24echos with with Corbin and do you see the green party being a
00:24:28better position to be able to withstand the the efforts the
00:24:32zionist lobby to derail the the green party's
00:24:35move unlike the labor party which obviously did fall over as
00:24:38result? yeah, well yes and no, I mean obviously there there are some
00:24:42key differences uh, the green party as you say is much
00:24:46younger party, it hasn't got the accumulated history the labor went on his
00:24:50shoulders and the procedures and bureaucratic procedures for doing things and that
00:24:54means
00:24:54that it's lighter its feet in some respects, but we we also don't know
00:24:58too much about the internal procedures in the green party, we know that some people have
00:25:02been suspended and expelled from the party for
00:25:06fake anti-semitism allegations, and that's a very worrying sign that the same
00:25:10same thing could happen to to others, of course there will be attempts to mass
00:25:13reports, the people who were involved in the promotion including lubna and of
00:25:17course comerade Ashok, uh on the show
00:25:21just now uh so that will have we'll have to see how that goes
00:25:25because of course what happened in the the corbin case was they appointed people who were
00:25:28convinced zionists to the disciplinary so that when the the disciplinary
00:25:32cases came they said well this looks like it's antisemitism look it's a breach the ihra
00:25:36look this is left-wing anti-semitism we must have these people out the party
00:25:40that that was
00:25:41the that was the end because it wasn't just that the zionists were pressuring from the
00:25:45outside is that there were zionists inside the party making the decisions as
00:25:49well and That's the key thing, in the case the greens of course the all the
00:25:53MPs with the possible exception of uh of um Zack
00:25:57Polansky are themselves sionists and they're very very weak at the question
00:26:00caroline lucas atrociously weak. it
00:26:03uh the the former MP and all the rest the MPs along with
00:26:07her, well we will watch this with with interest, but I'm afraid
00:26:11that's all we've got time for for today, so I'd like to thank our guest

00:26:59Shops looted, windows smashed, law enforcement officer. attacked,
00:27:03these are unacceptable scenes that no one should think of downplaying or
00:27:06justifying.

00:27:28water, we just can't take it anymore. truck drivers, far.
00:27:33are blocking the roads, gas
00:27:36station, and all these kind of protests are
00:27:40completely shadow from from the media, from the mainstream
00:27:44media, but you can't find everything in the other stores either, so you have to go

00:27:50find.
