It is sad and disappointing to see war break out and the loss of life in occupied #Palestine. Hamas may have started this war, but not without reason and ample provocation imo. #Israel is an #Apartheid state that encourages the illegal seizure of land, violent attacks by settlers on local #Palestinians, and provocative incursions at #AlAqsaMosque. They stystematically dehumanize and disrespect their Palestinian neighbors with checkpoints, walls, and land seizures. It’s long past time, imo, for the world and the US specifically to call out these breaches of Int’l law and impose sanctions on the Israeli state. In 2007, I wrote a post about how we should allow Israel to stand on its own, without US support. http://popimpulse.blogspot.com/2012/11/it-is-time-to-let-israel-stand-on-its.html
