De-Zionization of Israel

Translation / Interpretation / Caption Text

Text on poster: Matzpen (Hebrew: compass) 1962 - 1987 - was the first leftist organization in Israel founded on anti-Zionism. Through publications and protest Matzpen supported Palestinian self-determination in the face of settler colonization. Though its members were mostly Jewish, Matzpen united Israeli Jews and Palestinian Arabs organizing for a shared country with national rights for both peoples and full citizenship rights for all who lived there. For more than 40 years, Matzpen’s vision and activism has influenced attempts to fundamentally transform Israel.
De-Zionization of Israel and its integration in a socialist union with Arab counries – this is the road for solution.
