this book is written as a warning of the frightening world that could be born if israeli-style enthnonationalism continues its ascent…
a fascinating exposé on the history of israeli trades and negotiations with dictatorships around the world, right up to early 2023. an eerie prediction of the months to come. free palestine 🇵🇸
batmans's review
insightful and damning in the way it reveals the zionist entity’s hand in numerous global systems of oppression; definitely highlights the ways in which global liberation movements are deeply interconnected. however the author occasionally rehashes tired western talking points about the Palestinian resistance in Gaza. there is also a noticeable lack of Palestinian voices throughout. the text also advocates for the zionist entity to reevaluate its “defense” policies and settlements — changes that seem aimed more at rehabilitating the entity’s global image and clearing its conscience, overall lacking the necessary anticolonial imperative to dismantle the zionist entity altogether and free Palestine from the river to the sea.

Israel and the US always at the scene of the crime...
In all seriousness, a very important read! a thorough accounting of how Israel's weapon industry is based on testing their weapons on the Palestinian people and then using their "battle-tested" status as a selling point. Israel also does not care who it sells weapons to and its weapons have been used in countless massacres, war crimes and genocides. And if you are a violent anti-Semite? no matter, we will sell to you too! (the irony)
anyway, I'm angry. Free Palestine, down with the occupation!
