@deetskies@rezaaslan@PalestineToday Reza#BDS has replaced politics vis a vis Isr/Palestine...
@DianaValerie @deetskies @palestinetoday Yes but #BDS won't end occupation either. There is no 2State solution bc there is no longer 2States

@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies Hijab's point is that you need to support efforts to end apartheid if aid/loans are to have any use. -

@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies I don't know if you're just evading or uninformed re BDS, bc u keep referring to it as going for 2states -
@PalestineToday@dianavalerie@deetskies NO! I'm saying NOTHING will end occupation ever. Not loans. Not BDS. Only the inevitable 1State -
@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies so do you support bds or not? -
@PalestineToday@DianaValerie@deetskies I view Israel/Palestine as ONE unequal state & support any economic sanction to change govt policy -
@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies do you support boycotting/divesting from institutions complicit in occupation? -
@PalestineToday@DianaValerie@deetskies Unreservedly so. -
@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies cool & my last q is whether u support right of return (not trying 2 hound u, just 2 know where u stand) -
@PalestineToday@DianaValerie@deetskies In principle, not in practice. Impossible to absorb 5M Palestinians. But they must be compensated - 2 more replies

@rezaaslan@DianaValerie@deetskies@palestinetoday I try to avoid the word "occupation" these days. It's a dated term from a bygone era. -
@jncatron@rezaaslan@deetskies@PalestineToday What word do you use, Joe? -
@DianaValerie@rezaaslan@deetskies@PalestineToday I call it "apartheid," and try to throw in "ethnic cleansing." Those really sum it up.
