Antisemitic terrorism: Global North's propaganda
Daily FT
|July 15, 2025
ALTHOUGH the origins of modern terrorism go back to the French Reign of Terror in 1700s and could therefore be considered as a product of Western modernity, its 20th century incarnation may well be traced back to the Taliban warriors who were initially praised as freedom fighters by the then US president Ronald Regan when Taliban fought against Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, but later condemned them as terrorists when they turned their weapons against US itself for trying to replace Soviet presence. Thereafter terrorism and terrorists had become officially accepted labels to decry armed resistance against state terror.

Thus, Chechen fighters became terrorists to Putin's regime, Uyghur resisters turned terrorists to Chinese rulers, Tamil Tigers became terrorists to Government in Colombo and Kashmiri fighters were terrorists to Modi regime. The list goes on. Yet, there is still no universally accepted legal definition of what terrorism is and who terrorists are. One party's hero automatically becomes terrorist to another and vice versa.
After 57 years of Israel's apartheid rule in Gaza the popularly elected Hamas administration had no alternative but to resist with force to liberate its people from their oppressive existence. Netanyahu and his ruling Zionist cabal lost no time in branding Hamas a terrorist organisation and vowed to annihilate Hamas. But that very Hamas was created, nurtured and funded by Netanyahu's Likud Party so that Hamas could be a counterweight against the rising popularity of Mahmud Abbas and his PLO Authority is a historical fact conveniently forgotten by Global North.
For its part, Global North not only endorsed the terrorist description of Hamas and Israel's military retaliation but went a step further and strengthened the fire power of IDF with supply of more deadly weapons and replenished Israeli state coffers with more funds. While Global North's corporate sector fully backs Netanyahu's genocide its media keeps on as usual sanitising the human horror and physical devastation committed by the IDF. Today marks the 642nd day since Hamas fired its deadly rockets into Israel.
