We must condition military aid to Israel on better behavior. It was outrageous for Israel to have provoked a conflict this year and begun the bombing of Gaza again with many violations of Palestinian civil rights in East Jerusalem and elsewhere. Israel's horrifically disproportionate and criminal bombing of Gaza must not be normalized either.
We must push to end Israeli apartheid and persecution of Palestinians. Since Israel has now made it impossible for there to be a sovereign Palestinian state, or one that would include East Jerusalem which is sacred to Palestinians, we must push for a single state for all Israelis and Palestinians without discrimination. And the implementation of a Right to Return for Palestinian refugees. These have been for too long promised but evaded. Palestinians cannot be blamed for resisting endless occupation, apartheid, and persecution.
