Amnesty International’s new report, Israel’s Apartheid against Palestinians: Cruel System of Domination and Crime against Humanity, provides extensive legal documentation of the brutal reality of Israel’s apartheid regime over Palestinians and offers key recommendations on how the international community must hold the Israeli government accountable. This latest contribution to the growing body of work by Palestinian and Israeli rights groups, as well as the United Nations, offers vital proof of the institutionalized nature of Israel’s oppression of Palestinians, and of how Israeli laws and policies are designed specifically to deprive Palestinians of their rights. It determines that the Israeli state is irrefutably an apartheid regime.
Stefanie Fox, Executive Director, Jewish Voice for Peace: “Legacy American Jewish institutions like the ADL, the AJC and the Jewish Federations should be directing their outrage at the crimes against humanity that Israel is perpetrating against Palestinians. Instead, they are claiming that compiling a vast body of evidence documenting Israeli apartheid is somehow harmful to Jews. Defending Israel’s regime of supremacy and violence has nothing to do with Jewish safety. A large and growing number of American Jews understand that the only just response to apartheid is to join the fight for a future of equality and freedom for all.”
