The outrageous accusation of genocide against Israel further exposes how far Israel’s enemies are willing to go to slander and demonize the Jewish state.   America must be a voice of moral clarity in rejecting this baseless charge against our democratic ally.

This is not how Jews view the phrase “from the river to the sea.” This is not how Hamas views the phrase “from the river to the sea.” Hamas uses it as a rallying cry. And they don’t simply want to displace Jews in Israel. They want Jews dead.

This man is the president of a country that deliberately shot and killed a Palestinian-American journalist while she was reporting, and then tried to cover it up. Just a little over 5 months ago. So, the US Secretary of State is welcoming him to DC.

Thank you, @SecBlinken , for our terrific meeting. We underscored the importance of the US-Israel alliance, which is 75 years strong. We discussed the evolving reality in the Middle East, normalization, and adding more countries to the circle of regional peace.

This is blood chilling. Politicians on stage amid chants & cheers for "no ceasefire". This crowd is calling for ongoing bombing of schools, hospitals, mosques, churches; for Israel to be allowed to continue carrying out genocide against Palestinians. This is a pro-war rally.

Additionally, the people calling for a "humanitarian pause" are conveniently leaving out why Palestinians in Gaza don't already have food, water, or fuel. This isn't a natural disaster. Israel is openly and intentionally starving 2.2m Palestinians, half of whom are children.

BDS is a tactic that uses grassroots power and economic leverage to pressure a government to end violations of human rights. It does not explicitly support any political solution. Its demands are three-fold and they are all based international law. That's it. That's BDS.
