What is happening in Gaza is unconscionable. I have said that repeatedly, calling early and consistently for a ceasefire. I have not spoken in terms of genocide, that is true. Number one, because that is not the desire of the Israeli people; and two, because then you have to point out that genocide is exactly what Sinwar has declared is the intention of Hamas toward the Jews. This conversation is far too serious, and far too tragic, for me to want to discuss it in terms of genocide tit for tat. We need three things: 1) Ceasefire. 2) Release of the hostages. 3) A plan for a two-state solution.

Palestinians have been living under apartheid, constant violence, and displacement/land theft. You should acknowledge that.

So you’re just as much in the pocket of AIPAC as any other Dem. Cool.

“I have not spoken in terms of genocide, that is true. Number one, because that is not the desire of the Israeli people“ - first of all the validity of this statement is questionable but in line with a ‘progressive’ zionist. But this is not part of the definition of a gепоcide

a document from the Israeli government themselves saying their plan is to ethnically cleanse the land so they can colonize it.

If you don’t believe us, believe the Israeli government.

Hugely disappointing. Still glad you’re for a ceasefire but don’t understand your plight not to call it what it is when is happening in front of your very face.
