Israel’s “untenable occupation just goes on and on” and has “parallels” to apartheid, Rep. Jared Huffman of California reports after a visit to the country. But he says he got in an argument with Rep. Brad Schneider, who said that Palestinian prime minister Mohammed Shtayyeh offended American congresspeople by using the word “apartheid” and said Huffman and others should have taken the prime minister “to task” for using the word. Huffman said almost every Palestinian he met shares Shtayyeh’s view.
