Zionism and Nazism are both types of fascism that are once again a global problem.

Good a time as any to remember the words of Aime Cesare. This is why internationalism is important, why the export of such violence must be stopped before it can be perfected in the periphery, because when it’s not, it is inevitably brought to being elsewhere all across the world, even in the imperial core. Until all of us are liberated, none of us are liberated.
“For my part, if I have recalled a few details of these hideous butcheries, it is by no means because I take a morbid delight in them, but because I think that these heads of men, these collections of ears, these burned houses, these Gothic invasions, this steaming blood, these cities that evaporate at the edge of the sword, are not to be so easily disposed of. They prove that colonization, I repeat, dehumanizes even the most civilized man; that colonial activity, colonial enterprise, colonial conquest, which is based on contempt for the native and justified by that contempt, inevitably tends to change him who undertakes it; that the colonizer, who in order to ease his conscience gets into the habit of seeing the other man as an animal, accustoms himself to treating him like an animal, and tends objectively to transform himself into an animal. It is this result, this boomerang effect of colonization that I wanted to point out.”
