This is Yehuda Guetta, the 19 year old #Israeli student who just died after the #Palestinian terrorist drive-by shooting in Tapuah Junction this week, having succumbed to his wounds.
I doubt though his murder will form the basis of any @hrw report or @btselem condemnation.

I am a Jew. I am pro Israel. But that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t call out oppressive or unjust behavior on the part of the Israeli govt any more than I shouldn’t call out oppressive or unjust behavior on the part of my own. A Jewish state can only survive if based on Jewish values.

I was pro America even when Trump was president! We can talk all we want about Palestinian violence and it certainly exists, but we can’t just pretend the policies of the Israeli government are not oppressive and unjust. If anything as Jews it’s our responsibility to call it out.
