Martin believes that Israel is a setter-colonial state; that its goal is, and has always been, to kill or expel the indigenous population, the Palestinians, so that Jews can have an ethno-supremacist state. According to her, for non-Jews, Israel is an apartheid state.[1] She believes that, in order to maintain a Jewish majority, Israel persecutes Palestinians similar to how Nazy Germany persecuted Jews.[2][3][4] Martin is critical of anti-BDS laws which she thinks are criminalizing dissent.[1]
