Title
Students cite double standard in U.S. policy toward Israel
Subject
Student op-ed points out the racism/imperialism that is present in Western countries' justification for the state of Israel in Palestine. Authors talk about how the systemic expulsion of Palestinians from their land, the stripping of their rights, and massacres (Deir Yassin during the 1948 war by Menachem Begin) have been consistently ignored by the West, instead prioritizing issues of Israeli security. Authors call for Americans to reexamine the two-state solution and the formation of an independent Palestinian state.
