Netanyahu justifies genocide– this is a struggle between “children of light and children of darkness”– and Biden appears to be bargaining over how many Palestinians civilians Israel can kill.
Palestinian solidarity was winning the U.S. discourse. Now that’s over. An American who supports nonviolent actions reflects on the violence and trauma in Palestine.
Palestinians reflect on the past 30 years since the first Oslo Accords were signed and all the ways in which the agreement impacted their lives, pushing them even further away from achieving liberation and statehood.
Speaking before the UN General Assembly on September 22, Netanyahu showed his vision for “reconciliation between the Islamic world and the Jewish state.” It means wiping Palestine off the map.
ADL, you do not speak for “The Jewish People”. Organizations that deem Palestinians as inherently threatening to Jews, solely because of who they are as human beings, do not represent a growing number of Jews who cannot tolerate the disinformation surrounding the mythology of the State of Israel.
Even as the Israeli government pushes Palestinians out of large portions of the West Bank, Joe Biden seeks to normalize Netanyahu. He is sure to meet with him later this month at the U.N. Lauding Israeli “democracy” is the Democratic Party line in defiance of its own base. And liberal Zionists go along.
The human rights group Democracy for the Arab World Now is calling on the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate Israel Bonds for being an unregistered foreign agent.
The well-funded bipartisan group “No Labels” wants politicians to compromise, but its CEO says “there is no middle ground” when it comes to Israel. Why is media coverage leaving this part of the story out?
The New York Times all but ignored Palestinian civilians killed by Israel’s latest assault on Gaza and dismissed an essential factor in Israel’s calculus — pressure on Netanyahu from the fascistic members of his own coalition.
I disagreed with my friends who tried to tell me years ago — Israel will just get more rightwing, messianic, and hateful to Palestinians, and the U.S. government and Jewish community will just enable it. But they were right.
