This genocide has unraveled something far greater than even itself: it challenged an entire global system to take a good hard look at itself—to look within. In theological terms, Palestine represents the nafs al-mutma’nia (‘the contented soul’), whereas Israel and its benefactors represent the tormented, maniacal soul which burns all in its wake. Faced with the inevitability of tomorrow, the West and the “rules-based order” must choose between continuing to be potentates for godless violence or cede to the moral authority of Palestinians as the potential liberators of this broken world. Between the two paths, there is no other way.
