Non-Zionism at J Street

Weiss wrote yesterday: "But two Brit Tzedekish members of the audience for that session asked questions that were non-Zionist. One questioned the idea of a Jewish state. I was grateful to them."

Lisa Kosowski writes today:
I am the person in the Human/Civil Rights session who asked what does a Jewish State mean, and if it means a Jewish majority, how is it possible to preserve a Jewish State and still work for human/civil rights in Israel within that context? I appreciate your acknowledgement, but I have to correct something. You implied that I was a member of Brit Tzedek. Although I believe Brit Tzedek is a fine organization that I do support, I’m somewhat left of Brit Tzedek and my primary affiliation is the Arab Jewish Partnership for Peace and Justice in the Middle East. (I’ve been on the coordinating committee for the last two years or so).
