The US paid for the settlements. We are paying for War in Iraq.
So solidarity with people in the projects in Chicago or Oakland or South Central or New Orleans means ending support for war and colonialism abroad.
500 Billion for the war in Iraq. 5 billion for Israel. Ask anyone in those projects if they could have thought of a better way for that money to have been spent?
Want us to stop complaining about Israeli policies? Tell Israel to ask some other country to subsidize it might be a good start.
