Jewish women protesting against Israel

Tens of Thousands Demonstrate Globally Against Israeli Actions, Jewish Women Among Those Leading Protests

Tens of thousands of people took to streets over the weekend in cities across the globe to demonstrate against Israel’s assault on Gaza. Some of the protests have been organized by Jewish groups who are speaking out against Israel’s actions. We speak with two Jewish women for peace: Dorothy Zellner, one of fifteen Jews who have signed a call for a protest in front of the Israeli consulate in New York, and Judy Rebick, who organized a sit-in comprised of Jewish Canadian women at the Israeli consulate in Toronto.

@Kurtlane maybe you could give me some advice. there's this housing area few blocks down my road and god gave me and my family the land as an eternal inheritance but a few families have been living there for the past 2000 years. so from your opinion what should i do? i have told them but they think i'm nuts but they dont understand that god gave me the land according to my holy book. what should i do now? should i forced them to leave or kill them if they refuse?

@userarefull Israel is an occupying force in the West Bank and as such is forbidden bu international law to transfer your own population to those territories, i.e., illegal West Bank settlements.

@userarefull When you gain territory buy means of war, regardless to who started it, those territories are inadmissible to keep. However, you are allowed to occupy the territories until a peace agreement has been reached. As the occupying force, you are not allowed to transfer your own population into those territories. Hence the settlements are illegal. This is common knowledge and there are many UN resolutions in place that reflect this, most importantly the ICJ 2004 opinion.
