After all, the Jewish people has been closely linked with Palestine for a considerable period in history. Apart from that . . . we must not overlook the position in which the Jewish people found themselves as a result of the recent world war. . . . The solution of the Palestine problem into two separate states will be of profound historical significance, because this decision will meet the legitimate demands of the Jewish people, hundreds of thousands of whom, as you know, are still without a country, without homes, having found temporary shelter only in special camps in some Western European countries.
The Soviet Union voted “yes” for partition, as did its satellites Belorussia, Ukraine, Poland, and Czechoslovakia. (Yugoslavia, another satellite, abstained.)
“They saved the country, I have no doubt of that,” Ben-Gurion would say two decades later. “The Czech arms deal was the greatest help, it saved us and without it I very much doubt if we could have survived the first month.” Golda Meir, in her memoirs, similarly wrote that without the arms from the Eastern bloc, “I do not know whether we actually could have held out until the tide changed, as it did by June 1948.”
Ah right I forgot only white people can do real communism
If you're against every AES Communist party (almost all all trots or MLM) why even pretend like ur not just a patsoc
I am from Bangladesh and I am not against any AES. AES are model socialists they have their pros and cons and biases its upto people to judge history , like China still considers that invading Vietnam was the right thing to do. I don't consider it right like many MLs. Learn from good people like Vijay Prashad not from idiots who knows nothing of Marxism Leninism .
This is the correct level of nuance, but your original take is "MLMs and trots are anti-Lennin" which is completely ridiculous and ahistoric
Being anti-maoist because China "invaded" Vietnam is tantamount to being anti-Lenin because the USSR "invaded" Ukraine in 1919.
I guess it's easier when you can just make MLs "your team"
Being anti-maoist because China “invaded” Vietnam is tantamount to being anti-Lenin because the USSR “invaded” Ukraine in 1919.
Again conflating between 2 events . Vietnam was a full fledged state , Ukraine was under bourgeois entity supported by western powers . Vietnam did the right by removing Pol Pot from power .
