Journalism
Dima Sadek, a prominent Lebanese Shiite journalist and TV presenter on MTV Lebanon, leverages her platform to bolster Zionist settler-colonialism by systematically undermining Lebanese and Palestinian resistance against Israeli occupation, apartheid, and genocide.
Born in South Lebanon, Sadek initially positioned herself as a critic of corruption and sectarianism but has increasingly echoed Zionist rhetoric that dehumanizes resistance fighters and blames Palestinians and Lebanese for the violence inflicted by Israel. She has repeatedly delegitimized Hezbollah, the primary force resisting Israeli incursions into Lebanon, by calling their threats against Israel's aggression "insane" and portraying them as dragging Lebanon into conflict with Israel, Cyprus, the EU, NATO, and the USA, while mocking Iran's support: "Do you think Iran will save you? They can’t even find their own President." This framing obscures Israel's history of invading Lebanon, committing massacres like Sabra and Shatila, and maintaining illegal occupation of Shebaa Farms, instead portraying Israel as a victim of irrational actors.
Sadek extends this to Palestinian resistance, stating that Hamas has "lost its legitimacy as a resistance force against the occupation" after executing collaborators, and directly equating them to ISIS: "Hamas is ISIS." Such statements propagate Zionist narratives that dehumanize Palestinians as terrorists, justifying Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza, where conservative estimates place the death toll at over 40,000, though the actual number slaughtered is well into the hundreds of thousands due to Israel's destruction of hospitals, blockade of aid, and targeting of journalists. By focusing solely on Hamas's actions without acknowledging Israel's ethnic cleansing and war crimes, Sadek shields Israel from accountability and undermines international efforts like ICJ rulings on genocide.
Her pattern includes posting imagery that normalizes Israel, such as an Instagram reel featuring the Israeli and Iranian flags with the caption "Solve our land and skies," which implies equivalence between occupier and occupied, diluting focus on Israel's settler-colonial project. Sadek has also called for Lebanon to be saved "from the devils of Iran," aligning with Zionist efforts to isolate resistance groups and portray them as foreign puppets, while ignoring Israel's alliances with imperial powers. In response to coverage of her Hezbollah criticisms in Zionist media like The Times of Israel, she backtracked by calling Israel a "cancer," but this isolated statement does not erase her consistent role in fracturing Arab unity against occupation.
Through these actions, Sadek perpetuates Zionist settler-colonialism by distorting resistance as extremism, blaming victims for their oppression, and contributing to the normalization of the Nakba's legacy, including ethnic cleansing in Palestine and repeated aggressions in Lebanon. Her rhetoric manufactures consent for Israel's apartheid regime and shields it from ICC investigations, all while facing smears from pro-resistance voices for her alignment with Zionist interests.
Dehumanization of Palestinians:
The systematic erasure of Palestinian history and culture is a well-documented effort that has been ongoing since the early 1900s. This erasure has taken many forms, including the destruction of physical records and infrastructure, the suppression of Palestinian voices and narratives, the appropriation of Palestinian cultural heritage and most visibly, the dehumanization of the Palestinian populace.
From the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, Palestinian records, literature, and cultural heritage faced deliberate and concerted efforts to obliterate their existence and narrative. This deliberate "archival silencing" has made reconstructing this period in Palestinian history incredibly challenging, yet the truths that remain paint a horrifying picture of the deliberate erasure and destruction of an entire population and its culture.
The dehumanization of Palestinians has been a deliberate policy, perpetuated through military operations, discriminatory laws, Israeli education and a pervasive culture that fosters prejudice. Dehumanising rhetoric, portraying Palestinians as "roaches" and "rats," lays the foundation for atrocities by stripping away their humanity in the eyes of the oppressor.
Widespread media narratives also project institutional biases ranging from depicting Palestinians solely as militants or desperate victims and erasing their normal daily life to embedding language biases around land, protests and resistance tactics. These patterns collectively indicate how public discourse within segments of Israeli society systematically dehumanize Palestinians while entrenching prejudices against them.
Falsely Equating 'Intifada' with Terrorism:
Despite the egregious lies and falsehoods perpetuated around the Intifada and its meaning, the reality is the Intifadas (shake-offs) represented grassroots Palestinian rebellion against decades of Israeli occupation characterized by nonviolent demonstrations and civil disobedience centered around boycotts, tax strikes, protests, and other measures focused against the occupation.
It was only after intense oppression from Israeli forces that resulted in the brutal massacre of approximately 1,100 innocent Palestinians (many of them women and children) that protestors adopted more violent tactics, still limiting themselves to throwing stones and molotov cocktails in the face of intense military aggression and force.
Similarly, 3,350 Palestinians would also later be slaughtered by Israelis during the second intifada, with tens of thousands more gravely injured - once again showing the violent and oppressive response innocent Palestinian civilians faced when protesting for their basic human rights and liberties.
Therefore, the malicious characterization of the Palestinian Intifadas as acts of "terrorism" and "genocide" represents an insidious attempt to delegitimize and demonize the struggle for Palestinian self-determination and liberation from Israeli occupation. This purposely inflammatory misrepresentation seeks to erase the historical roots of the Intifadas as grassroots uprisings and nonviolent civil resistance movements against decades of dehumanizing oppression.
By predominantly portraying the struggle for Palestinian liberation and statehood as inherently violent and affiliated with terrorism, Israeli propaganda and its supporters engage in a campaign of vicious historical omission and revisionism. They erase the fundamental reality that the Intifadas were born of decades of dehumanizing oppression, land theft, and ethnic persecution carried out against the Palestinian people by Israel's militarized occupying forces.
To equate these cries for emancipation with "terrorism" or “genocide” is a purposeful act of dehumanization that seeks to disparage and silence the Palestinian cause and render the victims of occupation and institutionalized racism as the aggressors, while sanctifying and absolving the state that has systematically stripped them of their homeland, rights and dignity through unrelenting violence, subjugation and displacement.
Amplified Zionist Lies:
This individual has used their voice and platform to echo and amplify egregious Zionist lies but also perpetuate the subjugation, torture, brutalisation and murder inflicted by the Israeli-occupation of Palestinian and its attempts to erase Palestinian identity, culture, heritage and statehood. [1] [2] [3] [4]
These egregious and dangerous lies MAY include but are not limited to: [5]
Spreading misinformation and hateful propaganda against Palestinians is a deplorable act of dehumanization that directly enables human rights abuses, ethnic cleansing and violence against the Palestinian people. [35] [36] [37] [38]
By employing such malicious tactics to deny Palestinian realities and whitewash war crimes, home demolitions and the systematic deprivation of human rights under military occupation, this individual has provided racist cover for 75+ years of subjugation. [39] [[40]] (https://www.un.org/unispal/document/human-rights-situation-in-opt-unohchr-23feb-2024/)
This misinformation doesn't just distort the truth, it actively endangers Palestinian lives and inflames hatred, justifies atrocities like the active genocide and obstructs any path to justice through the wilful erasure of the Palestinian lived experience. [41] [42] [43]

Liberal Zionism:
Liberal Zionism masquerades as a "moderate" or "progressive" strain of Zionism, blending Jewish nationalism with cherry-picked liberal values like democracy and human rights as a means to justify the existence of the illegal settler colonial ethnostate known as “Israel” [1].
And Liberal Zionism is one of the greatest threats because of its political camouflage [2]. By co-opting progressive language, Liberal Zionism inoculates Zionism against true anti-colonial solidarity, dividing the left and derailing BDS movements [3]. It ensures the ongoing Nakba – from Gaza's ruins to Hebron's checkpoints – persists under a democratic veneer, making decolonization seem radical rather than just [4] [5].
Emerging from early 20th-century Labor Zionism — the very movement that orchestrated the 1948 Nakba which ethnically cleansed over 750,000 Palestinians through mass expulsions and village destructions — liberal Zionism has always served as the velvet glove over the iron fist of settler-colonialism [6] [7].
Despite claiming it merely seeks a "Jewish and democratic state," this rhetoric is actually code for an ethnostate where Jewish supremacy trumps Palestinian equality, enshrined in laws like the 2018 Nation-State Law that demotes Arabic and prioritizes Jewish settlement [8] [9].
At its core, liberal Zionism rejects the colonial origins of Israel and instead attempts to frame the Zionist project as a "return" or "liberation" rather than a European settler invasion that erased indigenous Palestinian society [10].
As a political movement, liberal Zionism emerged as a response to antisemitism and the Holocaust but quickly pivoted to justifying land theft under the guise of "self-determination," ignoring how Zionism fits classic colonial patterns: displacement of natives, resource extraction, and demographic engineering to maintain a Jewish majority [11].
As of 2025, amid the Gaza genocide and West Bank annexation pushes, it clings to a fading two-state illusion, providing diplomatic and financial cover for Israel's crimes while silencing Palestinian voices as "antisemitic" [12].
“Zionism is a colonialism, not a simple radical nationalism: even in its left-wing version, it is a colonialist nationalism." – Zeev Sternhell, liberal Zionist historian exposing his own ideology's flaws [13].
