I didn't say "its the fault of "decolonial chatter". My point was that a lot of the lumpen left have an idiot "send 'em back" policy which plays directly into the hands of "the world wants us dead, we have to keep Israel as it is now at all costs" crowd.Israel is run by die hards now. I don't see how it can get much worse for Palestinians
Says that emigration rise/ looking into emigration by getting EU passport pre dated Hamas attack. It was due to rise of right in Israel. And the subsequent protests. Not directly the Palestine issue.
Getting an EU passport was a good insurance back up.
So its not the fault of "decolonial chatter" making life in Israel so untenable that people feel they need to leave
"Decolonial chatter" You are mixing up twitter with the work of respected Israeli Jewish and Palestinian historians.
They have studied the concrete reality of what happened and how it effects today.
I dont read much Twitter as its not helpful.
Historically people have left Israel before. In 60s when there was economic downturn.
A younger generation might see an Israel run by hard right as not somewhere they want to live. Like my Polish friends who came here. Preferred living in UK than a Poland run by socially conservative governments.
I dont see Israel being isolated in sense of political and military aid. US and UK plus some EU countries support Israel in various ways. I do not see this ending soon. So no I do not see Israel being isolated any time soon in a practical sense. World public opinion yes due to the bombing of Gaza.
As for the work of respectable historians, I'm reading this right now. What think you of same?
