the purpose of a system is not what IT SAYS IT DOES or what you want it to do but what it actually does.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz reports on top officials specifically trying to "thwart" a Palestinian state while officials including Netanyahu are "instituting apartheid". This is the reality being funded by Biden & Congress. Demand a halt to weapons shipments and a cease fire NOW!
