New Year, Same Shit
Let’s talk about World War III .
Palestinians are killing Israelis and Israelis are killing Palestinians. People are angry, they’re passionate, they’re seeking answers. This is good. But they cannot be looking for a scapegoat, for someone to blame. We all keep saying we want peace, but we can never get there if we keep pointing fingers.
What I mean is, Israel can be told to chill out a little, but there’s a thin line between protesting Israel and protesting Jews. Israel must stop its assault on Gaza, but the Palestinians must also stop being douchebags. There’s been a lot of anti-Israel sentiments sweeping the US and the world, and it needs to stop.

I support a two-state solution in Israel because I know that there’s nothing more precious than a human life — not money, not beliefs, and certainly not land. Read this , join J Street , and show the world that supporting Israel means knowing when Israel must step down.
Happy New Year.
