Settler colonialism is essentially organised government theft by violence, usually under a cover story that the aggressors are doing good e.g. ‘liberating the people’. In this sense, we are all subject to the settler colonialist mindset in one way or another. At home, this mindset drives UK and US domestic and foreign policy, from the government’s steady erosion of our civil liberties, and legislated, creeping intrusions into our lives, to its increasing exploitation of citizens as sources of surveillance data, units of production, energy and tax revenue. Settler colonialism is just another name for pathological entitlement and parasitic exploitation of the many by the wealthy few.

People from Palestine to the Americas, to Venezuela, Cuba and Greenland recently, to Australia, Asia, Tibet, and Africa, know all-too well the poisons and brutality of colonialist entitlement, via threats of violence from governments like the UK, US, Israel, France, and their allies. Such governments are built upon the willingness to use their military forces, not to, as they often claim, ‘liberate the oppressed’, but to do violence and genocide to innocent people in order to steal their lands, homes and resources. Many innocent people - particularly indigenous peoples - are persecuted in these regions of the world by the US, UK, Israel etc, simply for having what the trillionaire class behind our politicians want for themselves. Namely, more real estate, oil, minerals, gas, gold, artefacts, cheap labour, etc. Indigenous peoples are typically made to suffer horrendous hardships under colonialist policies and slow, incremental depopulation for decades or even centuries in some cases. Their suffering is usually denied, minimised or concealed by corporate-owned mainstream western media. And their identities maligned as ‘terrorists’, ‘Arabs’, ‘Muslims’, ‘Indians’, ‘natives’, when the real evils originate those pointing the finger of blame and invading sovereign nations to steal what they want. It is an inversion of the truth that helps us maintain the delusion that we are ‘good’ and whomever our governments target must be ‘evil’: Iranians, Libyans, Palestinians, Syrians, Russians, Cubans, or whoever is next on the theft-by-force list. The victimised are often the poor, and people of colour who have few supporters or advocates in the West, and particularly in governments allied to corporations who exploit, ruin and profit from the slaughter of innocents, their stolen lands, raw materials and resources.

Please take a few minutes to learn about the mental and physical health struggles of people being scapegoated and ruined by politicians we in the West have elected into power, and find out what you can do to help do what you can to oppose this, according to your conscience.

In 2024 the International Criminal Court found that both Netanyahu and his former defence minister "each bear criminal responsibility for the following crimes as co-perpetrators for committing the acts jointly with others: the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution and other inhumane acts," (REF)

Israel has only been able to commit mass murder over the past 70 years with the active support and funding of the USA, UK, France, and other entities who themselves have histories of settler colonialism. Arab countries and Russia have also stood by and let the genocide happen. Without this support the genocide and Apartheid of the Palestinians would soon end. Our unwillingness as individual citizens to do anything against this is also our complicity in genocide.

As of January 2026, 172 000 Palestinians have been injured, 9 500 are missing, and close to 72 000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel since October 2023, 70% of whom were women and children. An estimated 200 000 have been killed by Israel since 1948, the overwhelming majority of them being civilians. The Israelis have a policy of considering all Palestinian civilians ‘the enemy’, including babies and children, and food aid workers, journalists, and medical workers, all of whom are murdered on a daily basis.

Watch the videos below to see with your own eyes the genocide and other war crimes being committed by the Israeli government. The so-called ‘ceasefire’ has not stopped Israel’s continued murder and starvation of innocent people. War crimes - aided and abetted by the US and UK governments - include forced starvation, bombing of hospitals; stealing, vandalising and demolishing homes; strategic maiming by sniper fire; genocide, and brutally torturing illegally imprisoned people, including children, and persistent claims of organ harvesting. UK, US and EU politicians loyal to Israel and who have received money from the Israel lobby are direct enablers of genocide and war crimes, demonstrating loyalty to Israel, not the UK and US citizens they were elected to represent.

Innocent, unarmed men, women and children, living in abject poverty, are being herded, maimed, mentally and physically tortured, detained without charge, sexually abused (by their captors and the use of attack dogs), denied food and medical care, and murdered by Israeli soldiers as you read this. The goal is extermination of all Palestinian people in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, so that their land and the oil resources Palestine has, can be stolen by Israel, the US and UK. This is not only a crime perpetrated by the Israeli government. In polls the majority of Israeli citizens support forced expulsion of Palestinians from their own homes and lands; a process that began in 1948 (see MAP) and continues today as the world effectively stands by and does nothing to stop it.

Israel is also attacking its neighbouring countries with the same overall objective: theft of other peoples’ lands and resources for the formation of ‘Greater Israel’. Israel is viewed by some as the spearhead of US-UK political and corporate interests in the Middle East. The evidence of Donald Trump’s and Keir Starmer’s military and economic support of Israel’s genocide seems to support this view. Starmer has also overseen the detention without charge for over 19 months, members of Palestine Action, four of whom are near death on hunger strike.

Meanwhile, as usual, impoverished innocent people suffer horrific fates for the greed of the wealthy.
