A Lesbian, Feminist, Queer, Progressive Jew & Rabbi, I champion Equality, Inclusion, Human Rights, the Planet, Justice and Peace - not least, in Israel-Palestine. HOPE - TIKVAH - is my middle name.

The flags of #Israel & #Palestine hang on the shelves in my study, a constant reminder to me - & to those who see them when I’m on zoom - of a future of #Justice & #HumanRights beyond the devastating reality of the present: #2EqualStates, living side-by-side in #Peace & #Security. #Shalom #Salaam.

Every single day, our extremist government chooses more death and destruction. After almost two years of bombing and displacement, Palestinians, including children, the elderly and disabled, are facing new horrors every day. The hostages are still suffering in captivity. (1/2)

And it’s not only the right. Yair Golan, part of the opposition, just said the establishment of a Palestinian state would be “destructive” for Israel. With an opposition like this, who needs Netanyahu, Smotrich, and Ben-Gvir?
The Israeli right would have you believe that recognizing a Palestinian state along 1967 lines is somehow “rewarding Hamas,” and also that the reason there can’t be a Palestinian state is that Hamas wants all the land of Israel-Palestine and won’t accept the 1967 lines.
