It may seem to most the Israeli left is rapidly shrinking. Yet efforts like Tal Adler & Osama Zatar’s to create the One State Embassy challenges the status quo. Adler, who has worked for years as a photographer in the Negev photographing Bedouins who are citizens but live in ‘unrecognized villages’, has been a key figure in challenging much of the accepted right wing rhetoric.
Although not opened in Israel/Palestine proper, still the choice of Vienna was a strategic one according to Adler and Zatar:
“Vienna, the place where monarchs titled themselves kings of Jerusalem, where the Jewish State conceived, the holocaust cultivated, and still today Islamophobia and anti-Semitism compete for crowd’s popularity, is the place where OneState opens its first Embassy.”
