Israeli Apartheid Week

Jews and Muslims march hand in hand to critisize the actions of the Israeli government
This is Israeli Apartheid Week (March 1-8).
Criticism of Israel is Not Antisemitism
“The deployment of anti-Semitism as an accusation to silence criticism of Israel is … a serious setback in genuine struggles against anti-Semitism and other forms of discrimination. It is based on a claim that the State of Israel is the single outcome of the history of the Jewish people, the final end of generations of diasporic existence. It attempts to make the Zionist project of a Jewish nation the only legitimate project for all Jews.”
From an article by Judy Rebick and Alan Sears, who are both university professors and members of ‘Jews in solidarity with Palestine’. Read more.
