Kudjoe, You seem to be making a valid point. Elements of the present protest movement maybe about stopping a genocide right here, right now. If they call themselves anti-genocide, the other side by implication becomes pro-genocide. But will the compliant media portray it as such? They are feeding the uninitiated a diet of pro-Palestine = anti-Israel= anti-semitic. If more of us don't wake up this prevailing orthodoxy will take root.
This is what Caitlin is saying. The political left-wing worldview always recognised the injustice of the settler-colonial apartheid Israel and its Western backers. From way back they have been and are pro-Palestine ( just like Jeremy Corbyn ) on the side of the occupied and oppressed. On the side of justice and human rights. The Israeli genocide of the Gazans make it imperative that we are more pro-Palestine than ever before.
