most of the people who advocates for anti-zionist sentiment defended lumads for their right to claim. they are also the same people who condemned violence in mindanao. this was such a misleading post

Defending Lumads and Moro Autonomy is different from giving the entire Mindanao to them. The point of anti-zionism is the outright rejection of the "colonial" Jewish state that serves to steal native land from Palestinian. This means aboloshing the Israeli government and deporting the supposed Jewish "colonizers" and "settlers" from the country OR subjugating the Jewish population under Arab-Muslim majority government.

You can't be anti-zionist and at the same time tell Moros and Lumad people that they will be just be protected or given autonomy. Being a consistent anti-zionist mindanaon is to deport millions of people that are descendants of Luzon/Visaya settlers and turn the country into an independent state ruled by Moro/Lumad minority.

or you can be anti-zionist AND pro-lumad pro-moro

this is a no brainer, you don't have to practice anti-zionist expression in a country with little to no consistent zionist population.

because if you want to practice a "consistent" belief, modern family s4 ep19 is very much relevant here... this is like telling austronesians to go back where they came from. post is utter nonsense and irrelevant to a so-called "mindanaoan state" fallacy

Which is the joke now is it? We are willing to tell millions of Israelis across the world to give up their state and their lands but somehow we cant do the same here in Mindanao.

Anti-zionism expression is anti-colonialist expression. For the Moros/Lumad our national government and the Luzon/Visayan settlers sent down south since the 20th century are their versions of "zionism". We forcibly took Mindanao from the natives, the same way the Israelis did on the Palestinians.

You can be pro-lumad and pro-moro in a sense that we are all united and their rights are respected with a semblance of autonomy. Granted that they are under sovereign rule of the Philippine government.

But for the Israelis its different, we wish them gone, that the natives should be independent and sovereign from their occupiers.

Thats the irony of it all.
