Socialist Party USA Statement on Middle East Violence
issued 10/22/00


The new wave of bloodshed in the Middle East has its starting point in
Israel's occupation of Palestinian lands. There can be no peace without
justice, and the Oslo Accords are inherently unjust.

The Socialist Party supports a just peace in the Middle East, based at a
minimum on fill enforcement of the Geneva Conventions, an end to the
occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, and equal rights for all Israeli
citizens. We support the institution of a truly independent Palestinian
state.

The Socialist Party calls for the immediate cessation of all aid to
Israel, including the sale of military equipment of any kind. U.S. aid
has been used by Israel to fashion one of the most powerful military
machines in the world. The U.S. government's complicity with the Israeli
occupations should end now.
