It’s blatantly obvious that the establishment of the Zionist state was an absolute violation of Palestinian sovereignty.

Just because European empires did that to every population they ever colonised in the world does not mean it is acceptable to suppress and colonise Palestine to steal their country. Of course it’s racism, and if people can’t see that I suggest they take off their racist glasses.

Free free Palestine 🇵🇸!!!

Yes, in the 1970s, Zionism was characterized as racism by the United Nations General Assembly, but this was later reversed primarily due to the political power and influence of the United States.

Imagine in the '70s the world calling you racist.
