Thank you Pankaj This is an outstanding testimony to stand out for the truth in 21st century today. Palestinians do not need Western and American support from their political leaders because Palestinians have received more than enough recognition from common people from All over the world. In Britain alone, 700,000 protesters came out every week to remind Israel you have lost your soul and you are now left a wounded animal in the Middle East. Thank you 🙏

You have my deep respect, Mr Mishra, for the depth and humanity of your analysis. Hopefully the emergence of great thinkers and speakers, such as yourself, from outside the West can bring bitterly needed relief to this tortured world.

[@ssvemuri]

"Every day is poisoned by the awareness that hundreds of thousands of people are being slaughtered..." . very eloquently sums up the urgency & gravity of the issue to those who still have some compassion left.

[@olusha]

Let's remember that this church hosted Pankaj Mishra’s lecture (this one) after London’s Barbican Centre decided not to host it. Many artists withdrew their work from the Barbican exhibition as a result of this decision. Perhaps religious institutions (who still follow a moral compass), will become our future art galleries. Thanks also to LRB for posting this.

[@maryl8753]

Except Justin Welby, Archbishop of Church of England- he refused to meet with a Palestinian pastor as he had shared the stage with Jeremy Corbyn, an avowed antizionist. Shows what sort of decency and morals the leader of the Church of England has. Disgusting where even church leaders are morally bankrupt. Lately he has with others called for a ceasefire but I'm afraid his true nature has been exposed

[@lsobrien]

Brilliant. We are so fortunate Mishra exists.

[@muradtalukdar4401]

What a tragic coincidence that "Shoah" and "Nakba" both can be translated to "Catastrophe".

[@fbschilling]

And one is nothing like the other. The Shoah was an effort to kill every Jew in Europe that largely succeeded. The Nakba can be compared to the expulsion of the Sudetenland Germans from Czechoslovakia in 1945-46, or the expulsion of the Greek population from Anatolia in 1922-23.

[@paulamarsh1]

Nakba, originally referred to the FAILURE of the Arab states to destroy Israel. This is evident if you read the press of the day (in Arabic). It was later transposed to mean the "plight of the Arab Palestinians".

[@catherinewalks1207]

First found this article in a recent collection by Moon of Alabama. Very glad to have seen you deliver it. In the current climate it seems astonishing that you were permitted to deliver it, let alone publish it in the LRB, but, as one of the powerless masses expressing their horror about Gaza daily on social media, it's a source of hope that you could.

[@jonathanhoffman2122]

Barbican refused to host this antisemitic drivel. Good for them. Shame on St James, Clerkenwell.

[@salzburgkritters6487]

I applaud this man....as I sit and weep over our current display of barbarity in the name of victimhood, the words ring truth as never before. As a south african born jew of russian decendants, I always felt something was not right...how did I reconcile loyalty to a tribe of co-conspirators against differently coloured humans, with a victim history ? I grew up with apartheid and left the country of my birth, for its depravity...Only to witness this same depravity metered out on a people also of colour, in a land supposed to protect the right to exist....thank you for clearing up my doubt and ambivalence....

There are plenty of Jews/Israelis "of colour" if that's what you go for. Hamas hates them too.

Have you looked at a picture of an IDF infantry unit recently? You might notice a good many people of colour.

[@RashidG1985]

What about the picture of IDF Generals or of the Knesset? Not many ethiopian jews there, mate.

[@jboudon11]

@@fbschilling yeah that’s an evasive answer though. this lad’s point still stands that there is definitely a racial dimension (whether we frame it in terms of “white supremacy” or not) to the zionist project; and i imagine you yourself are already well aware that despite the israeli state’s eagerness to take in mizrachim for demographic purposes, they were by no means given a red carpet welcome when they made aliyah, and that there’s a vicious history of ashkenazi arrogance, a residue of the european racism against which (and within which) zionism first emerged

[@Byoga-experience]

Calm and collected sir. Your delivery is commendable on a subject I can only weep over. So glad to have you insight into this horror. Thank you for voicing the true nature of humanity and what is the (correct) conduct of civil society.

I have to listen to this again. Great wealth of wonderful literary anecdotes of historical figures, remarkable and an instructive presentation.

[@rra6033]

What truth. Another biased Muslim view. I’m an Indian and this guy needs to focus on the atrocities of the Mughals on the indigenous Indian people. The intolerance of the islamists in living in a pluralist India and demanding the partition of India, resulting in the ethnic cleansing of Pakistan and Bangladesh of non-Muslims resulting in millions being killed. The typical hypocrisy to once again brush under the carpet major ethnic cleansing and focus on Jew hatred

[@JerrySilberman]

Not much new for someone who has been following the evolution of Israel with a critical eye over decades, but a good summary. The Shoah was not unique, although the European colonialists were usually slaughtering people in the process of extracting value from them, justifying it post facto by rationalizing their victims as subhuman. The contrast between South Africa under apartheid and Israel is instructive. The racist government of South Africa relied on hyper-exploited labor from the Africa population; Israel has purged Palestinians from participation in their economy to the extent possible, replacing them with immigrants from many countries, to avoid any shadow of need for their presence to interfere with their extermination.....

[@718junius]

And yet the Palestinian population keeps on growing despite this Israeli "genocide".

[@helenmcinerney1058]

You misunderstand genocide, and you sound almost disappointed at the numbers of Palestinians in the world. Btw Jewish Israeli scholars who study the Holocaust have called it a 'textbook genocide'.​@@718junius

Thank you Mr Mishra. The truth, the whole truth,and nothing but the truth. The whole needs more decent people like yourself.

[@drsalimhaidrani2094]

I have just read the lecture too. Outstanding intellectual interpretations of Jewish past and present. Pankaj brought new insights into the idea of ‘antisemitism’ and its implications. Israel lost its human dignity and human pride while using extreme violence against women and children to show that Israel has no respect for humanity in this conflict. A large number of Jewish citizens in Israel continue to support the violence and destruction of Palestinian’ homes, Mosques, Churches, schools and hospitals. This talk and lecture of Pankaj has recorded the crime of contemporary Israel in a way that shows ‘can Israel live with human dignity with its close neighbours while being an oppressive force?’

While we eat, they don't have food. I feel guilt every time I go to shops. I end up cutting my shopping short. Then get home and realise I didn't get what I needed. Yes it is affecting every one of us.

[@LadyBug1967]

YES, it is affecting all of us throughout the world and I'm glad you have said that. The first 3 months, I kept thinking I was having a ❤️ attack, my heart hurt so badly, and I am older so that feeling was not far fet he'd. Finally I got past that and now I'm becoming numb, but not quite, not quite. I live in a small town where NO one even discusses it. FOR a long time NO one even knew it was happening. IT'S in Texas, Central Texas, where I live and it's just NOT kosher to discuss anything political. BUT this is NOT political. THIS has to do with human beings, with humanity, with humanism as described by the Greeks over 2000 years ago. THIS has to do with TRUE democracy, NOT the fake democracy of the zionist state are the sort of democracies of the West. Israel NEVER had a democracy. IT WAS DUE TO SIN THAT THE ISRAELITES WERE FORCED BY THEIR GOD TO WANDER THE EARTH AND IT IS IN SIN THAT THEY CREATED THE ZIONIST STATE AND IT IS BY SIN THAT THEY CONTINUE THE MASSACRE UPON AN INNOCENT PEOPLE. ISRAEL has always been engaged in the SHOAH. I realize listening to this man speak that the "never again" was a fake & a cover up for engaging immediately in a SHOAH of another people. And they have gotten away with it for 3/4's of a century. AND they are still getting away with it. YOU may ask WHY? The answer has NOT yet been exposed and I hope younger people than me will do the research and begin writing immediately everywhere the TRUTH. On blogs,on podcasts, on the walls of buildings, messages dropped from helicopters in the Zionist state, in film. Of course the Jews like Steven Spielberg are yesterday's garbage and we need new ones to create new narratives that are the TRUTH rather than lies. SO WHAT IS THIS TRUTH? The ONLY thing the Israelis create is spyware and they've infiltrated all the countries, especially the UK, by selling their spyware and thus they have a hold on all these countries just as Jeffrey Epstein, an agent of the Mossad tho the elites will not admit it, had a hold on all the powerful people throughout the world, especially in the US and the UK. WHERE do you think he got his millions and millions of dollars? THE MEDIA PONDER THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN ALTHOUGH THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS. IT was from Israel. HE was a Jew and he worked for the Mossad. HE is dead but the MOSSAD continues to work throughout the nations of the world. The bi-national zionists work in governments from the local to national levels, influencing legislature, such that 36 states in the United States have passed a law that it is a crime if you say anything critical of the zionist state. The power & the control they have over the West is this and add to that the millions & millions they give to influence races & THIS is WHY the West will NOT cease to sell them armaments to commit a genocide on another semitic people & give them diplomatic cover while they commit genocide before our eyes. It is now up to the people of all the countries around the world to boycott anything dealing with the zionist state and the people there in. This includes all the cultural events; all the sport events; and anything else that occurs that involves Zionists must be boycotted or the zionists must be expelled immediately from that event. Back to the evidence we have that has not been written such that people can see it on a daily basis. This evidence of a silent shadow war on the governments of the West is the infiltration of the zionists into every aspect of the US & the UK & the EU by way of their governmental bodies, their media, their banking systems as well as donating foreign money to any candidate that will back this genocidal, apartheid zionist state. The Jews around the world deserve safety and the ONLY way they will get safety is by the destruction of the current Zionist state and the creation of the historic Palestine that will go by the name of either the Levant or Canaan --which are ancient names-- and that will embrace ALL peoples, ALL religions, ALL ethnic backgrounds in a TRUE democracy where everyone has civil rights and everyone has a passport for that country. This is the ONLY way safety will be created, NOT by criminalizing anyone saying something critical of the zionist state which is a genocidal apartheid state that is the furthest thing you could ever get from a democracy. Its existence, above & beyond the safety of Jews, also threatens ALL democracies around the world because if they lower themselves to the level of The zionists by backing them financially & diplomatically, they have destroyed their own democracy which is a type of government that must be recreated day by day or the totalitarians will take it down, as is occurring now as we speak.

One doesn't defend the current Israeli government by asking the obvious: what kind of peace is he talking about? Israel is not negotiating with Belgium. Is peace really possible with Islamic Jihad, Hamas and Hezbollah? It doesn't look like it. Any cessation of violence is merely tactical with the combatants rearming for the next round. These groups will not accept the existence of a Jewish state. Peace for them requires the end of Israel. One does not expect the Israelis to agree with this.
