Students for Justice in Palestine Claims ‘Progress Impossible So Long as Israel Exists'
"The goal of Palestinian resistance is not to establish ’love’ with those who are responsible for the suffering of the Palestinian people," the group said in an article published by the student paper California Aggie. Rather, the essay said, "it is to completely dismantle those forces at play." The full paragraph in question reads: Lastly, it is an ideological fantasy to really believe that progress is possible so long as the state of Israel exists. Underlying this naive fantasy is the belief that a state that engages in racist laws, systematic killings and home demolitions can also function as a beacon of peace. The goal of Palestinian resistance is not to establish "love" with those who are responsible for the suffering of the Palestinian people; it is to completely dismantle those forces at play. So continue to watch in "horror," because we are here to stay. The piece was a response to a June op-ed written by the Aggies for Israel club, critiquing an anti-Israel protest against its "Choose Love" campaign. Posted by: Besoeker 2018-07-11 |
