The False Paradigm of Parity and Partition: Revisiting 1967

A lecture by Ilan Pappé, University of Exeter


The talk will focus on Israeli policy before and after the June 1967 war.
Two theses will be argued by revisiting the 1967 events: first, Israeli
policies of 1967 can only be understood within the context of the overall
Israeli strategy in 1948 and after.  This means that the war of 1967 was a
direct continuation of the 1948 Nakbah and not a separate event. The second
argument will be that Israeli strategy, including the device of what was
later named as the "peace process," was already formulated in 1967 and has
not changed since that year and even until today. This strategy, it will be
argued in the talk, is the main obstacle to peace in Israel and Palestine.

Dear Ed ,

Lets face it: U.S. elections often pit heartless Republicans against
spineless Democrats.

But there are rare candidates of exceptional courage and compassion who can
be counted on to fight – alongside RootsAction activists – for a fair
economy, environmental sanity, civil liberties. . . and against a military
machine that is draining our society while creating ever more enemies
overseas. 

Today we want to tell you about three outstanding candidates for Congress.

 <http://act.rootsaction.org/images/norman(1).jpeg> NORMAN SOLOMON: Running
in a new district (no incumbent) on California’s progressive North Coast,
Norman doesn’t just support the RootsAction agenda, he cofounded
RootsAction. A lifelong activist and author for peace and justice, he will
hit the ground running on these issues in D.C. 

Norman has built one of the strongest grassroots campaigns ever. He can win
this seat and become “America’s Congress member.” He’s endorsed by labor
unions, peace groups and advocates like Dan Ellsberg, Dolores Huerta, Jim
Hightower, Phil Donahue and Rep. Raul Grijalva. 

You can help Norman by donating
<http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=pIodXAwIHLRQCwnJpw%2F%2
FYXjWLdvHOkBh> to his campaign; his opponents include a couple of
corporate-connected Democrats while Norman refuses corporate money. 

And you can VOTE for him in the
<http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=WSJQtMNK%2B8NYwPGzXA7%2
BMsiAfRvO927y> "Grassroots All-Stars" online straw poll (it takes 5 seconds)
– which will give Norman access to additional grassroots $$ and volunteers. 

As Barbara Ehrenreich commented in her endorsement: “We need independent
progressive Democrats like Norman Solomon in Congress, not business-as-usual
Democrats.” Check out Norman’s

 <http://act.rootsaction.org/images/kucinich.gif> DENNIS KUCINICH: On issue
after issue, Dennis has stood up bravely and often alone in the U.S.
Congress – from working to impeach Bush & Cheney to cutting funds for
endless war.

Incumbents often don’t need much grassroots support, but GOP redistricting
has thrown two Democratic incumbents into one district. The other Democrat
gets donations from war contractors like General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman,
and Lockheed Martin. 

That’s why an antiwar stalwart like Dennis Kucinich
<http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=g61oKmtIE52J7JDVsu9DB3j
WLdvHOkBh> needs donations and activist support now.

In endorsing Dennis recently, Rep. Barney Frank touted the work he and
Dennis have done together on behalf of “substantially reducing America’s
military activity across the world.”

Former Congress member Alan Grayson said it best: “Congress is full of
replaceable parts. But Dennis Kucinich is not one of them. Dennis is
unique.” Check out the Kucinich

 <http://act.rootsaction.org/images/lee.gif> BARBARA LEE: Although she faces
no risk of defeat in her Oakland-Berkeley, CA district, we wanted to give a
shout out to this unbending voice for peace and justice on Capitol Hill.
Barbara stood alone in Congress in 2001 against giving President Bush carte
blanche to wage war – anywhere – in the wake of 9/11; she is a hero in the
powerful

So even if you’re disappointed in the candidates and choices on your ballot,
here are opportunities for us to band together to help three candidates we
can be proud of . . . candidates with spine.

Please forward this email far and wide.

Aimee, David, Sarah
and the RootsAction team
