A review of the history, from 1948 forward, traces the path to precisely this end. Early Israeli leaders, from Ben Gurion forward, acknowledged publicly that full settlement of the State of Israel would require pushing Palestinians first into the margins, now known as the Gaza Strip, and then into sea if need be. We seem to be nearly there, with the United States as founder, enabler and apologist. We have supported Israel in doing what the expansionist British colonies and then the U.S. did for three centuries, and has continued to do. At the risk of political capital (read: AIPAC, Christian Zionists and influential Jewish entrepreneurs), our leaders have tread lightly here, if at all. And now, we walk in criminality as well.

This is horrifying, MJ.
This story should be in wider media. How do we get this out?
