We can question the behavior of Israel without joining forces with those who would destroy it. That is the balance most needed now: to take on the conversation in a way that honors both human rights of Palestinians as well as legitimate security concerns of Israel. Both matter.

This might work if Palestinians wanted to live in peace with the Israelis, but they do not. They simply do not want peace.

I like you masquerade as a voice for freedom while defending apartheid.

Making an imbalanced situation appear equal perpetuates the harm of oppression.

I agree. But this is going to be a tricky one to balance.

Be absolutely for real, Marianne. Stop pretending like “legitimate security concerns of Israel” is a phrase that does anything other than defend an Apartheid state and their attempt at a violent systemic erasure of Palestinian people. 🇵🇸 🇵🇸

Meanwhile 45 insists that any criticism of his agenda is anti American, as he genuflects to the anti democratic autocrats of the world-as if abusing human rights is the defining mark of a "great" leader. Thank God I haven't married my identity to his histrionic ravings/policies.
