Not in Our Name: JEWS for Justice in Palestine

Restoring our faith in Jews and Judaism are the heroic acts of a very few Jews -- some in Israel but most in America -- who decry the Israeli government's crimes against humanity, its incremental genocide, its dispossession of Palestinian land, its ethnic cleansing of Arabs, Muslims, and the indigenous population of a land the CIA and British government regard as the "State of Israel."

Protests in response to Israel’s assault on Gaza have drawn hundreds -- in some cases thousands -- around the world. 

Palestinians in ghetto? Ask Diane Sawyer
Yesterday [July 22, 2014], members of Jewish Voice for Peace and Jews Say No! occupied the New York City office of the "Friends of the Israel Defense Forces" [technically a state-sponsored terrorist organization friendly to strategic U.S. interests].

The office is a front for the nonprofit group that raises money in the U.S. to send to the Israeli military to kill, oppress, imprison, humiliate, drive out (dispossess), and commit atrocities in the name of Jews, Jewish people worldwide, and the "State of Israel," the official name for what is not a state but aims to be, even if that means creating a holocaust  (systematic ghettoizing and planned annihilation/ethnic cleansing) for Palestinians.

Illegal  Jewish settlements are "suburbs"
For about an hour, activists read the names of the more than 600 Palestinians murdered by the Israel "Defense" Forces (IDF) and demanded the support organization stop its fundraising for the outlaw government Jewish terrorists and Jewish militants engaged in war crimes attacking Gaza.

Nine American-Jewish protesters engaging in peaceful civil disobedience were arrested when they refused to leave the premises. We get a video report from the protest. More
  • PM Bibi Netanyahu and his brother were made in America (by the CIA)
  • Tzipi Llvni [sippy livni] is Israel's current peace negotiator who says, "Our troops behaved like hooligans, which I demanded of them."  - Investigative Journalist Max Blumenthal (Goliath: Life and Loathing in Greater Israel)

Hate-filled, right wing Netanyahu
Jewish Israeli writer Gideon Levy: If Prime Minister Netanyahu wants to stop Hamas "rockets," he and Israel need to accept a JUST peace [which, of course, they have no interest in since these "rockets" are used to justify the annihilation of Palestinian civilians]
