Hillary Clinton and countless Clinton aides and supporters will join neoconservatives at AIPAC. Bernie Sanders could make a statement by declining the invitation. Does he have the guts?

Speaking on Radio Canada on March 6, Roger Waters said of Palestinians, denied self-determination for 70 years, “They need the support of anybody who cares about justice or love in the world to support their cause.”

Rich Forer is a former member of AIPAC who has orthodox relatives living in West Bank settlements, yet today he is a strong advocate for Palestinian rights. Forer is the author of the book ‘Breakthrough: Transforming Fear into Compassion A New Perspective on the Israel-Palestine Conflict’ and Katie Miranda interviews him about how the concept of the “psycho-spiritual roots of conflict” helps explain why some Israel supporters think and behave the way they do. Miranda says, “We can take the easy route and brush them off as crazy and racist. It’s much harder to look at the roots and even to identify similar qualities in ourselves.”

Bernie Sanders has made headlines by committing himself to a fairer U.S. Palestine policy, but if he is unable to explain, or even comprehend, the deeply immoral reasoning behind it, there’s little chance he’d be able to alter a policy with such huge material and ideological momentum.

Vassar officials referred to anti-Semitism a dozen times in a call-in attended by 900 alumni in which President Catharine Hill vowed to oppose Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions. The equation of anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism comes under pressure from pro-Israel alumni.
