Aid given to Israel must come with the explicit instruction that it not be used in a way that infringes on the human rights of Palestinians. As President, I will make sure of it. This week's Firelight Chat was my discussion on the Israel/Palestine situation with J-Street’s @JoshLockman and Palestinian-American political analyst @OmarBaddar. youtube.com/NruuYwzE74Y Stay tuned for next week’s episode - a conversation about the Military-Industrial-Complex with journalist @stephensemler.

L All the things you advocate - right for women, minorities, LGBTQ, reproduction, aid to the poor, rights of animals - are values that are non existent in palestinian society why are you advocating for people with values like that?

It is not infringing on the rights of Palestinians to ensure that they are familiar with the errors of their ancestors in 1948 when the Arab Higher Cmte took the view that Independence should include a policy of *no land for Jews*. That idea was not supported by the smaller faith groups like @druzevets and @Bahai_Teachings. They sided with the Jewish Agency for Israel so Independence could be a pluralistic democracy that respects all religions. So long as Pal/Arabs are misguidedly thinking that violence against Jews and Israel will bring forth any advancement in their circumstances, they are being deluded, and @UNPalestine needs to enable facing of the factual history and a willingness for honest rapprochement between Pal/Arabs and Jews. @LollllllaJR @instituteforgov @QuincyInst @RStatecraft @IsraelPalesProj @SettlementWatch

The Zionist state infringes on the human rights of Palestinians. End all aid to Israel, economic, military, political.
