OPP's Online Dialogue
Over het evenement
SCOPE:
With its roots in Colonialism, it is a story of the collusion between Zionism and imperialism - a story of destruction, dispossession, racism, apartheid, dehumanisation, ethnic cleansing and genocide, breaking international laws, and violating human rights, condemned by the world, United Nations and ICJ. Yet it continues uninterrupted.
Israel can get away with it all.
There is some routine meaningless hypocritic criticism with continuous unconditional support and an unlimited supply of the most modern and lethal weapons, primarily by the USA and many of its allies, to kill the people of Palestine (and elsewhere).
This Online Dialogue provides a historical perspective of how this conflict was created, nurtured, and sustained over decades, making it complex and unresolvable. It also addresses the present-day situation and future prospects.
