I've been very deeply distressed in my
visit to the Holy Land; it
reminded me so much of what happened to us black people in South
Africa. I have seen the humiliation of the Palestinians at checkpoints
and roadblocks, suffering like us when young white police officers
prevented us from moving about. --Nobel Laureate Bishop Desmond Tutu, April
2002
When we have settled the land, all the Arabs will be able to do about it will be to scurry around like drugged roaches in a bottle.-- Rafael Eitan, Israeli Defense Forces Chief of Staff, April 1983
The Arabs are liars from birth.--Israel's Minister of Justice, Avraham Sharir, February 1988

Israel is the most racist state in the world at this time Zionism calls for a Jewish state. Israel defines Jewishness, in part, in genetic terms. A person is legally Jewish if his or her mother is Jewish, regardless of place of birth or religious belief. The result of Israeli state policies has been a 60 year program of ethnic cleansing, including expulsion of the Palestinian population, military occupation, and mass murder. Supporting a boycott against Israel is not Anti-Semitic Zionism is NOT synonymous with Judaism. Supporting a boycott against Israel is no more anti-Semitic than support of the boycott of Apartheid South Africa during the 1980s was anti-White. Many Jews of conscience and Jewish organizations condemn Israel's crimes against humanity, and support sanctions and boycott. Among these are the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, L.A. Jews for Peace, Jews in Solidarity with Palestine, 540 Israeli citizens, and Israeli academics such as Neve Gordon, Emmanuel Farjoun, Rachel Giora and Kobi Snitz. But
aren't Palestinians equally responsible for the violence?
No. Palestinians are overwhelmingly the victims of Israeli violence, much as American Indians were overwhelmingly the victims of U.S. violence in previous centuries. Israel avoids peace because peace interfers with territorial expansion and ethnic cleaning. |

use of White
Phosphorus furthers its agenda of ethnic cleansing. This deadly weapon, produced at Pine Bluff Arsenal in Arkansas, has had devastating effects on the Palestinian population. For more photos, click here. For video, click here. |
A statistical analysis entitled, Reigniting Violence: How Do Ceasefires End? written by faculty members at MIT and Tel Aviv University, and a graduate student at Harvard found that "79% of all conflict pauses were interrupted when Israel killed a Palestinian, while only 8% were interrupted by Palestinian attacks (the remaining 13% were interrupted by both sides on the same day)" and that "of the 25 periods of nonviolence lasting longer than a week, Israel unilaterally interrupted 24, or 96%, and it unilaterally interrupted 100% of the 14 periods of nonviolence lasting longer than 9 days." |
