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.

Very informative. What would happen with the Nuclear Military in a One State solution? What will happen to all of the Internationly Illegal Settlers who settled there lawfully in a Two State solution? Both problems created largely by U..S. !

Oh yeah. That'll happen. In 1948 it took 'em all of 20 minutes to decide to push their boundary into Palestine.

With all due respect, holding this view requires one to have all but a child’s capacity for logic. It neglects the entire historical context of the conflict. Israel doesn’t occupy for fun. It’s a necessity. Look what happened when they ended the occupation of Gaza.

@RobertKennedyJr This is how it’s done. You’re either for the freedom and liberation of an occupied and oppressed people or you’re not. There’s no two sides to apartheid and murder.

The new government is openly calling not for just ethnic cleansing but the actual slaughter of Palestinians, which has well been underway and is getting dramatically worse. It’s truly shocking. Call the White House. 2024561111
