[03/10 IG Repost]
We’re happy to announce our second Norwegian signatory, Not Today ( @nottoday.bergen ) !
One aspect of Not Today’s statement that resonated with us in particular is their underlining of the total lack of faith we have in the “Western so-called democracies.” As we witness even the few states that feign ‘support’ for Palestine like Spain & Italy–and then only under immense pressure & borderline revolt of their respective peoples–continue to make excuses for the genocidal Zionist regime, fail to show up for their own citizens who are kidnapped by it (as with the Sumud Flotilla participants), and continue even to trade with it even as they claim they have stopped, we come again and again to the same conclusion, one familiar to free-thinking anti-authoritarians since time immemorial: states will never save us.
Indeed, we have seen over the decades how the mockery of pseudo-statehood has even become *active collaboration* with the structure of genocide, occupation, and apartheid in Palestine in the form of the unelected Palestinian Authority. And even further, we have seen the complete lack of willingness on the part of the self-identified ‘West’ to do anything more than recognise a supposed Palestinian state that *could never exist* as long as the Zionist Entity remains a colonial occupying power of the very soil that would make up that state.
In any case–we are happy to see that PAA continues to grow, and that our message continues to resonate. Artists together are more powerful than they are on their own. If you are down, why not go all in? Join PAA today!!! (tinyurl.com/paa-pou-2025)
