Rafael Silver left Israel because he could no longer be a part of a system that practices apartheid against the Palestinian people. “I have seen it in action with my own eyes,” he writes. “I have enforced it during my military service in the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip and supported it as an Israeli taxpayer.”

‘The American population was bombarded the way the Iraqi population was bombarded. It was a war against us, a war of lies and disinformation and omission of history. That kind of war, overwhelming and devastating, waged here in the US while the Gulf War was waged over there.’ (Howard Zinn, ‘Power, History and Warfare’, Open Magazine Pamphlet Series, No. 8, 1991, p.12)

Israel’s ban on Palestinian spouses becomes permanent law– a triumph for ‘Jewish state’

What Shaked calls “a state of all its citizens” is really what we would normally call a democratic state, where basic rights like family unification are ensured. Whoever is fooled by Israel’s security and “terror” arguments, should read Shaked’s last tweet text again. If you want to summarize it even further, it really just says “A democratic state – 0”.
