From Chicago Anti Report
On May 1, 2024, a group of rabble rousers and freaks took part in an anarchist May Day parade that stormed through the Fulton Market neighborhood of Chicago. Before leaving Union Park, people danced around a May Pole in costumes, shared food, laughter and music and then hit the streets. The group of about 80 people was tailed by at least 30 squad cars as many people chanted, danced and re-decorated the highly gentrified neighborhood.
This action came together in the midst of four of Chicago’s big universities hosting occupations in support of Palestinian liberation as the Genocide continues.
Walking down Randolph street towards the original Haymarket Square, the group antagonized gentrifying zionists as they sipped their wine in the outdooor restaurants along the boulevards. The group brought noise and commotion to the Google building, Chase Bank, Starbucks and global headquarters of McDonalds — all four companies having known ties with Israel. The march culminated in a stand off with dozens of cops in front of McDonald’s Hamburger University, where some protestors were brutalized and arrested.
The cops continue to serve and protect the genocidal actions of the Israeli Occupation Forces and the US government while children die. But, a collective rage is bubbling and comrades all around the world are coming together to fight. Find your people, dance in the streets, create ruins and do everything you can to wreak havoc.
This action is dedicated to the Chicago anarchists, Haymarket Martyrs and all those who have lost their lives in Palestine.

My point was more that the Pro-Palestine crowd are nearly the sane nationalists as your demonized Zionists. Both are equally byproducts of Euro imperialism in the region. Both are led by total fascists that aren't being denounced enough as the manipulative war-mongerers they are. You can't go against Israel as an anarchist by being for Palestine, and *anything* this means...
Anarchists would better be quicker at understanding how the real winners in politics are those who know how to play *both sides*. And yes there's something important to learn about it, even if you don't play the game. Like taking sides is for exploited, the "losers".

Hi, it's Wayne with time on his hands, so I will respond to these slanders and lies about me.
I never called on Western anarchists to send money to Ukrainian anarchists or anyone else, nor to go to Ukraine.
I am against nationalism (the statist program of the capitalists) but for national self-determination (the right of oppressed peoples to decide their own fate, without foreign states invading them)
While a humanist Jew, I have always been anti-Zionist, against Israel's oppression and dispossession of the Palestinians.
I support the national self-determination of the Palestinian people. But I am opposed to the reactionary-theocratic-capitalist program of the vile Hamas. I support the Palestinian people but not the specific organization Hamas.

No, you are the one who's more confused about the meaning of Zionism. As for roughly a century it was mostly about diveristy and secularismz not ethno-national exclusivity based on religion, and for long the Zionists have had a significant portion of Mulsim and Arab people living together on their kibbutz, having their place in Israeli society to a point of even being in the IDF.
The rise of the Palestinian national liberation ideology in thr '60s, then the Far Right Israeli admins in the '70s have changed that, and brought an irreconciable conflict between two religious ethno-nationalisms.
It'd be nice of you not to dismiss the whole ultra-conservative and authortiarian politics of the "anti-zionist" side.

In reply to maybe instead of making a by anon (not verified)
Zionism dates back to the 1880s, there was a mass Palestinian uprising against Zionist (both British & soon-to-be-Israeli) rule in the 1930s that was preceded & followed by organizing along the same lines. Ben Gurion rose to a leadership position within the Zionist movement as all this started, but he didn't found it & arguably isn't even its most prominent ideologue.
The Zionist movement in Palestine definitely did always mean to make a Jewish-only state; the factions that didn't want that still subjugated & displaced Palestinians in practice, & mostly felt that a Jewish-majority or similar arrangement would work, as long as [European, white] Jewish supremacy was maintained within its borders. There were absolutely liberal-progressive & leftist, from socialist to committed communist, tendencies in the Zionist movement. They were not the first & certainly aren't the last manifestation of left-wing support for colonialism.

" all zionists should die including zionist apologists."
I assume that by "zionists" and "zionist apologists" you mean anyone who supports the existence of Israel. As you know, this includes the big majority of Jews in the U.S. It probably also includes most Jews who participate in pro-Palestinian protests.
So you are calling for the death of most U.S. Jews. I grant that they are wrong to support the existence of Israel. But your statement is a call for genocide, another Holocaust. To say that this is despicable and has no place among anarchists should be unnecessary.

"how will he find that out?" Pretty simple. By getting these brainwashed fanatics to talk about their views of Hitler. and the Shoah.
"it's easy to say in the abstract.." Oh no, not abstract. Plenty of attacks and gestures of violence have been carried against Jews and Jewish institutions outside of Israel since the Israeli response to the offensive by Hamas + Islamic Jihad. Just today, some fanatic moron was just killed over trying to burn a synagogue in France. These aren't attacks against Israel but on Jews and their communities. That's by-the-book antisemitism.

"easy to say in the abstract" means that it's easy to say those words. not that it isn't true in some cases.
and anti-jewish sentiment can be far more subtle than supporting hitler. but i guess if supporting hitler is the litmus test to use, then yes, that's pretty clear.

It includes not only fanatics and puritans and authoritarians but also Reconstructionist Jews, Quakers, Liberation Theology Christians, Sufi Muslims, etc. Damned if I know why you leave out Buddhists and Hindus.
