Jewish Voice for Peace Support Michigan BDS. On false premise and very sad, old, wrong rhetoric

NOTE: We've all been wrong from time to time. That's life! Live and learn! But just look at this article and the list of supportive folks. Makes you wonder if they actually read what is being written in their names. And if so, how could such people be so utterly wrong? They have eyes but they cannot see. (Ps 135). This won't be the last we hear from Michigan BDS or JVP. Once again we are left asking, "What is wrong with these people?"

some quotes from the letter:

The Israeli occupation destroys Palestinian homes; depletes aquifers essential to family 
farming in a fragile ecosystem; seizes sleeping children from their beds in the middle of the 
night for throwing stones at armor-plated bulldozers that rip their centuries-old olive trees from 
their family orchards before their eyes; and has forced women in labor to give birth on the 
ground at checkpoints, even in winter, causing the deaths of women and infants, in arbitrary 
exercises of total power and control over a captive population.

The resolution that should be before the Assembly 
seeks equality and fairness and is neither racist nor discriminatory; it is a demand for an end to 
oppression. The target is not the “Jewish people,” but official misconduct by the State of Israel.
