If you’re trying to say that Israel isn’t western:
Where did all the Zionists who founded Israel through terrorism and forced displacement of native come from to do so? And who finances and props up Israeli occupation as a foothold in the Middle east and gives it all the money and guns it needs to do its colonialism and genocides and terror, without which it would likely collapse?
Also, the founding thinkers of Zionism were open about this and wanting to found their colonialist state on the basis of “western” nation-state and identify as such. And you see it in today’s imperialist propaganda of it being “the only western democracy in the Middle East.” Theodore Hertzl wrote to Cecil Rhodes (colonialist white supremacist freak after whom Rhodesian settler-colonial occupation of Zimbabwe was named) for his support saying explicitly that the “Jewish state” of his Zionist vision would:
“form a part of a wall of defense for Europe in Asia, an outpost of civilization against barbarism.”
Also explicitly said:
“If it is God’s will that we return to our historic fatherland, we should like to do so as representatives of Western civilization, and bring cleanliness, order, and the well-distilled customs of the Occident to this plague-ridden, blighted corner of the Orient.”
Also the west…
Those devices were rigged to blow by Israel, who then pulled the trigger.
