What Do Jewish Voices Say?

Forget what others say about Israel.  Let’s listen to prominent Jewish voices.

313 Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors and victims of the Nazi genocide have signed a letter stating:

As Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors and victims of the Nazi genocide we unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing occupation and colonization of historic Palestine. We further condemn the United States for providing Israel with the funding to carry out the attack, and Western states more generally for using their diplomatic muscle to protect Israel from condemnation. Genocide begins with the silence of the world.

We are alarmed by the extreme, racist dehumanization of Palestinians in Israeli society, which has reached a fever-pitch. In Israel, politicians and pundits in The Times of Israel and The Jerusalem Post have called openly for genocide of Palestinians and right-wing Israelis are adopting Neo-Nazi insignia.

Nothing can justify bombing UN shelters, homes, hospitals and universities. Nothing can justify depriving people of electricity and water.

We must raise our collective voices and use our collective power to bring about an end to all forms of racism, including the ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. We call for an immediate end to the siege against and blockade of Gaza. We call for the full economic, cultural and academic boycott of Israel. “Never again” must mean NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE!

And .

A prominent Jewish leader says that Israel has intentionally targeted civilians in order to terrorize the Palestinian population.

A number of Israeli soldiers have confirmed this.

A number of prominent Israelis say that Israel’s treatment of Palestinians is apartheid.

All 6 former Israeli security chiefs have 

Israeli soldiers have spoken  about Israel cruelty towards Palestinians.

The Israeli high court found that Israeli soldiers used Palestinians as human shields 1,200 times.

A holocaust survivor and Israeli Minister both say that labeling criticism of Israel “anti-semitic” is a TRICK.

Jews have repeatedly staged massive protests in Tel Aviv against the occupation and bombing of Gaza.
