Description
The Destruction of Palestine Is the Destruction of the Earth by Andreas Malm A long history of colonization and extraction has led to the devastating consequences of Israel's actions in Palestine. This pamphlet argues that understanding the present crisis requires a deep analysis of Palestine's subjugation to the fossil empire. Malm explores the development of Britain's fossil empire and its enduring impact on Western support for the destruction of Palestine. The author traces the roots of colonial adventurism in Palestine back to the British empire's first use of steam-power in war, which destroyed the Palestinian city of Akka. This history is crucial to understanding the current humanitarian and environmental crisis in Gaza. Malm's analysis sheds light on the connections between fossil energy and the ongoing conflict in Palestine. By examining the fossil empire's legacy, Malm provides a unique perspective on the crisis in Palestine and its far-reaching consequences for the planet.
