On May 29th, fascist Zionist settlers held a flag march throughout Palestinian areas of Jerusalem’s Old City. Rotted to the core with colonial racism, this march was intended to celebrate Zionist forces’ seizure of East Jerusalem in 1967. But in the seeming surety of escalating violence, an anxiety about belonging lurks. A state defined by and through the negation of the native, through sanctioned racism and supremacy, is a state running on borrowed time. The settlers may have marched on Sunday. And they may have waved their flags. But their flag, like their state, will fall.

Thousands of Israelis participated in the ultra-nationalist “Flag March” in occupied Jerusalem on Tuesday, marching through the streets of the city chanting “Death to Arabs,” “may your village burn,” and “a second Nakba is coming.” Among the participants of the march were right-wing Israeli lawmakers and members of parliament including Bezalel Smotrich, Shlomo Karai, Itamar Ben Gvir and Orit Struck.

An international group of Jews is calling on Jewish institutions to take down the Israeli flag saying, “The Israeli flag has the status of the Confederate flag. We are appalled at the idea that it represents us. It should be taken down.”
