I support Palestinians who call for boycotting, divestment and sanctions (BDS) until the Israeli government recognizes the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and respects, protects and promotes the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties.
In 1987, Ronald Reagan, in a speech at the Berlin Wall said: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall”. Why are there no politicians today calling for dismantling the wall between Israel and Palestine? The wall between the United States and Mexico should also come down. Walls are a symbol of economic and social apartheid.
