Claudia Cinatti: The New Phase of the Genocide in Gaza and Netanyahu’s Strategic Labyrinth
     Release time: 2025-06-27
  The genocide perfected by famine in Gaza continues to erode the legitimacy of the State of Israel internationally. This widespread repudiation was expressed in the emergence of a massive solidarity movement with the Palestinian people, led primarily by the youth of major universities in central countries. This movement, which denounced not only Netanyahu’s genocide but also their own governments complicity in the massacre, was harshly repressed with expulsions and trials on charges of alleged antisemitism. In the case of the United States, this persecution included the threat of deportation of students, such as Mahmoud Khalil, and a widespread attack on universities, whose authorities capitulated to the government’s threat of funding cuts.. If the solidarity movement with Palestine is compared to the movement against the Vietnam War, the state persecution is reminiscent of McCarthyism, with an unprecedented attack on the right to protest and freedom of expression. Part of this persecution is the trial of Anasse Kazib, a leader of the French organization Revolution Permanente,and the prosecution of Vanina Biasi (a representative of the Workers’ Party in the FIT-U of Argentina).
  In the face of the brutality deployed by the Zionist state and the continued collaboration of Western “democratic” governments with Netanyahu’s war crimes, there are signs that this movement is reawakening. The mobilization at Columbia University and the protest by teachers and students at Brooklyn College in early May, as well as the mass mobilizations that are beginning to take place as part of the international commemoration of the Nakba, such as the one in Spain, show that there is still popular outrage over Israel’s genocide.The organizations that have emerged from the leftist ruptures of anti-Zionist young people of Jewish origin and the enormous international solidarity campaign with Anasse Kazib also show that there are more than enough conditions and reasons to establish an international movement against the genocide committed by the State of Israel and its collaborators, against the colonial oppression of the Zionist state, and in defense of the Palestinian people’s right to national self-determination.
