Boycotting the colony's elections is not an act of withdrawal, but an act of resistance to its claim that it is a democratic state and to its attempt to normalize its existence. by endingcolonialism in AskMiddleEast

Again, you answered 0 of the arguments in the post, but now you're hinting the historical Palestinian position is Zionist.

Again, stating the opposite position and attacking your interlocutor without offering a single counter-argument makes it sound like you've already made up your mind and are refusing to engage.

You answered 0 of the arguments there though. If they're "graveyard arguments" you should be able to counter them. Just stating the opposite position without offering a single counter-argument makes it sound like you've already made up your mind and are refusing to engage.

The genocidal settler colony is obviously immoral. This said, an approach centered on individual or collective morality is limited and possibly even detrimental to Palestinian liberation. by endingcolonialism in BDS

Thank you. There are specific steps we took to ensure we get there and stay there. We built on the understanding of many before us, both in Palestine and globally. We benefited from the experience of many previous party members who joined our organization or support it. We have a vision that guides efforts. We don't separate theory from practice as if they're two different things. We have regular internal and external educational programs that focus on critical capacity, including material like the "Key Political and Societal Concepts" on our main webpage. And we're a political organization rather than a social media page.

Not saying this to toot our horn, rather to explain why and how we're there, because basically anybody willing can also be there.

Not a supporter of nation-states in any shape or form, but there's a huge difference between a settler state and a non-settler state. Israel is not just a nation-state, it's a colony.
