69. BDS' Omar Barghouti advocates destruction of Israel

Sun Jan 18, 2015, 09:03 PM

Jan 2015

“As Omar Barghouti, a leader of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel, put it recently to Yale students: ‘If the refugees were to return, you would not have a two-state solution, you’d have a Palestine next to a Palestine’.” http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/01/opinion/global/zero-dark-zero.html?_r=0

and...

“..you cannot reconcile the right of return for refugees with a two state solution. That is the big white elephant in the room and people are ignoring it — A RETURN FOR REFUGEES WOULD END ISRAEL’S EXISTENCE AS A JEWISH STATE. The right of return is a basic right that cannot be given away; it’s inalienable”.
