We should be thankful for the honesty of fascist MKs Itamar Ben-Gvir and Amichai Eliyahu. Their recent statements that the rights of Jews trump the rights of Palestinians are exposing the apartheid reality.
Joe Biden has put out the word, go get your photo-ops with Netanyahu, and Democrats are all over Israel, sucking up; The New York mayor is going to Israel for four days to “combat antisemitism”; a Golda Meir biopic looks awful; and more!
The letter accusing Israel of apartheid initiated by Israeli Jewish scholars has given permission to commentators at mainstream publications to echo the accusation. Even J Street acknowledges it’s two sets of law based on “racial and ethnic” distinction.
Retired Israeli general Amiram Levin and South African journalist Benjamin Pogrund are the latest to call out Israeli apartheid. Now the question becomes, what are they willing to do about it?
So long as Jews and Palestinians don’t have equal rights, Israel risks “dictatorship,” say 750 academics in letter urging U.S. Jews to denounce “apartheid.”
The Netanyahu government is causing leading U.S. advocates for Israel to finally acknowledge realities that only critics raised before like Israel practices apartheid and U.S. aid to the rogue government should be cut.
Gathered for their biennial General Assembly in Louisville, Kentucky, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the U.S. and Canada overwhelmingly adopted a resolution affirming “many of the laws, policies and practices of the State of Israel meet the definition of apartheid as defined in international law.”
Some longtime establishment voices have begun calling to end U.S. military aid to Israel, but they are not necessarily standing in solidarity with Palestinians.
