The Israeli courts just ordered 1500 Palestinian residents of Silwan, Jerusalem to demolish their own homes — or pay the Israeli government some $28,000 per home to do it for them. The Israeli legal system is an arm of its ethnic cleansing project. Zionism is colonialism.

Jill and I were sickened to learn of the brutal murder of a child and the attempted murder of the child’s mother yesterday in Illinois. Our condolences and prayers are with the family. This act of hate against a Palestinian Muslim family has no place in America.

if you're so set on condemning violence, why don't you start with the 14 year siege on Gaza? The 54 year occupation? the 73 year-long ethnic cleansing? Zionism is built on violence. Condemn that.
