"Israel's ethnic cleansing and apartheid in Palestine" Palestinians and many Israelis are encouraged that civil society in Europe and North America has now engaged in other forms of struggle for peace with justice, including the growing movement of boycotts.

Fascinating letter by Shelby Tucker, Jr published September 25, 1978 in The Memphis Commercial Appeal after the author threatened a law suit after he was defamed as an "anti-Semite" for criticizing Israeli policies. Still worth reading and pondering some thirty years later. Tucker became even more an advocate of human rights since then. Sadly some Zionists have not changed and still try to use the same tactics of killing, stealing lands, and crying "anti-Semitism" every time they are criticized. Since that article, over 40,000 Palestinian civilians and tens of thousands of Lebanese were murdered by Israel not to mention the accelerated ethnic cleansing of the 1980s and 1990s. Anyway read Tucker's amazing response of 1978" http://qumsiyeh.org/shelbytucker/
