RACHEL CORRIE CONTIGENT UPDATE

We believe in the one-state solution of Palestine-Israel or Israel-Palestine, with a flag that represents all the people of the land not just Jewish people. We believe in equal rights for all regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or sex in Israel-Palestine and that includes for all the Palestinian refugees who must be allowed their right to return to their ancestral homeland of Palestine-Israel, which is their right according to UN Resolutions, International Law and world opinion.

We believe that the US must not send any more aid to Israel until Israel is transformed into a true democracy with equal rights for all regardless of religion, ethnicity, race or sex, including for all the Palestinian refugees as per above statement.

We believe that Israel is a racist, anti-democratic, apartheid regime and as such must be boycotted as was apartheid South Africa, until Israel becomes a true democracy.

We believe that the two-state solution is unjust and racist and a continuation / formalization of apartheid, and therefore unacceptable. When South Africa was transformed into a democracy, it did not break up into two countries: one for whites and one one for blacks! That is racist and regressive! Even here in the US, since the Civil Rights Movement, we have banned racial discrimination and ended segregation and remained one country under God.

We believe that Zionism is a blatantly racist, ethno-centric supremacist ideology, and as such has no place in US policies, either domestic or foreign.

We believe in equal rights, freedom and justice for ALL here and in countries that our tax dollars go to, such as Israel, the #1 recipient by far (over 40% of our foreign aid).
