Dezionification

It was on this basis that mainly non-Arab advocates of the undoing of the State of Israel as constituted in 1967-70 insisted on its ‘de-Zionification’, and its replacement by a bi-national Palestinian State.

Their internal dezionification process has more to do with washing their hands of the accusing images pointed at them by others than any solidarity they might have with Palestinians.

Comments on social media ranged from sympathy with the tourists to criticism of their decision to travel to Israel for tourism despite the Israeli occupation and the mistreatment of Palestinians. “Dezionification of the UAE is needed,” one user tweeted.
