We are constantly making the mistake in Russia of judging the slogans and tactics of a certain party or group, of judging its general trend, by the intentions or motives that the group claims for itself. Such judgement is worthless. The road to hell—as was said long ago—is paved with good intentions.

It is not a matter of intentions, motives or words but of the objective situation, independent of them, that determines the fate and significance of slogans, of tactics or, in general, of the trend of a given party or group.

If both parties are doing the same shit, it doesn't fucking matter why

but to quote something from a leftist friend of the author

It honestly felt like Bartov's pointing out the very serious historical and material myopia that exists within Israel proper, outside of very specific and rare circles, that's developed to such a severe degree that when blowback against the actions of their fascist state occured a la O7 that it completely disorientated them and shattered their fictional worldview.

Like it's quite possible we're able to get a glimpse into history of what was happening in fascist Germany with how inundated with propaganda their people were with observing the continued unraveling we've been given a glimpse into with the contemporary events occuring.

Excellent read. Should be a mandatory read for anyone with interest in the current genocide being perpetuated against the Palestinian people.

I disagree. There's always greater depths to be explored, and our good English explorers are experts in exactly that.
