Make sure that all your friends and family vote for Zohran. This is not a joke.

The question for me is whether there is any Palestinian leadership capable of fulfilling these hopes and moving the people toward a freer, more just future. Is there anyone, or any movement, that can rise above the corruption and factionalism that have defined Palestinian politics for decades?

Just as Zionism has weaponized Judaism to justify dispossession and apartheid, Islamism has exploited Islam to sustain authoritarianism(s). The liberation of Palestine must come from a politics grounded in equality, secularism, and shared humanity.

Islamism (Brotherhood), much like Zionism, is a pan-nationalist ideology built on exclusion and domination. Both have transformed deeply spiritual and cultural traditions into tools of power and violence.
