Gilad Atzmon: We Are All Palestinians

Gilad Atzmon, Veterans Today, Dec 2, 2011

Most solidarity activists in this country would agree that the PSC (Palestine Solidarity Campaign)  is potentially an invaluable institution. Yet, the National Office, under its current leadership, has made some serious mistakes.

The PSC’s task is not easy. We all operate in a Zionised environment and we’re subject to constant pressure and abuse. Moreover, it’s not always clear what we should do for Palestine. It is obvious that Palestinian resistance is more than just single political perception or a vision of conflict resolution.

Furthermore, the enemy also is far from being any obviously singular identity or monolithic political discourse.
