End Apartheid in Israel-Palestine
Saturday, June 23rd, 2007
Israel’s oppression of Palestinians is a huge issue, so I just want to start a discussion about it. Here’s a good article: There Has Never Been a True Left in Israel: Israeli Apartheid is the Core of the Crisis by Oren Ben-Dor at Counterpunch. Along with many others, he argues that the solution is One State. I agree, but I’ll need to read some books on this before I can give a solid argument. Good books to start seem to be: 1) The One-State Solution: A Breakthrough for Peace in the Israeli-Palestinian Deadlock by Virginia Tilley, political scientist; and 2) The Iron Cage: The Story of the Palestinian Struggle for Statehood by Rashid Khalidi, historian.
