youtu.be/Wy5JuSB-0O8 Another successful action in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israeli Apartheid this weekend. I am interviewed somewhere at around minute 21 and I try to make the connection between the Gaza/Palestine and the children who are coming to our shores and being deported by the US government. (Having had very little sleep, since we left at 4:00 a.m., I ramble a bit..) However, here are some facts: - Desmond Tutu has decried the humiliating apartheid to which Palestinians are subjected jpost/Diplomacy-and-Politics/Desmond-Tutu-Israel-guilty-of-apartheid-in-treatment-of-Palestinians-344874 - Nelson Mandela before his death spoke at great length in favor of the liberation of Palestine and against the policies of Israel. - These policies of apartheid and the violence and atrocities against Palestinians is sponsored by our tax dollars (to the tune of 8.5 MILLION dollars per day in military aid PLUS additional money, which represented well over $140 BILLION in 2003). - The Israeli Mossad, in conjunction with our always present CIA, trained Guatemalas Kaibiles, purportedly for drug-war activities, but these guys, who in turn trained the Zetas, have been used in counter-insurgency measures, and implicated in killings of indigenous protesters in Bocas del Toro in 2011, and they also fired indiscriminately with live ammunition on Afro-Caribbean protesters in October of 2013. - These are the very same gangs kidnapping and causing terror and mayhem and prompting small children to make the long and dangerous trek to the US. There will not be a Shana Tovah for the Jewish community until the policies of violence and apartheid come to an end. Yom Kippur 2014 is approaching; it is the Day of Atonement, “For on this day He will forgive you, to purify you, that you be cleansed from all your sins before G‑d” (Leviticus 16:30). To be cleansed from all your sins, you must make peace with your brother. No more occupation and apartheid!
