In Israel, solidifying occupation control reigns terror against anyone pursuing freedom and justice issues, and without pretext waging all-out war, justifying it as self-defense against terrorism.
For Jews and Israeli Arabs, "(o)ne single law could simplify matters: Let every Israeli know that (it's) forbidden to believe in a just Israel, forbidden to fight against any of its injustices, forbidden to struggle for its soul."
It begs the question: is Israel's democracy so anathema that even blowing its cover is acceptable. Targeting human rights defenders proves it.
A Final Comment
Ramzy Clark, former US Attorney General, now progressive anti-war activist and International Action Center founder led a solidarity delegation to Gaza, beginning on January 5 when he met with Palestine's elected Prime Minister, Ismail Haniyeh.
Their schedule also includes meetings with human rights activists, survivors of loved ones killed during Cast Lead, and public meetings to address attendees. On return, they plan "to help bring truth about Gaza to the people of the United States," denied it by America's dominant media.
