Arundhati Roy is a moral and political giant. She is a brilliant writer. No one I know captures the absolute depravity, the pure evil, of the 'leaders' of the west as well as her. Joe Biden is, as she says, unflinchingly committing genocide. Kamala Harris will follow in his cold blooded path. These people are mass murders. They are tyrants. They are opposed to freedom. It is the ruthless pursuit of world domination, in short imperialism. Like all imperialism it is done, so that the lucky few in the United States don't lose a few cents on the dollar. It doesn't benefit the working class and it barely benefits the petite bourgeoisie.

Freedom for the Palestinians means dismantling, as Roy says, the whole infrastructure of imperialism. Western leftists need to unflinchingly look at their own ruling class and realise that they are monsters. We then need to become traitors to our so called nations by joining forces with, as Alaa Abd El Fatteh puts it, those outside the frame. It is where we already are if only we could see it.
