Celebration of Israeli colonial settlements at the Mets

"A group that supports Palestinian causes is crying foul because The Hebron Fund, a Brooklyn-based organization that funds radical Jewish settlers in the West Bank city, is holding a fund-raiser Saturday at the home of the Mets. The money they collect will be used to support some 700 Jews who continue to squat in the overwhelmingly Palestinian city, protected from their angry neighbors by the Israeli Army, the pro-Palestinian group says. "The Palestinians have no rights," said Ethan Heitner, a spokesman for Adalah-NY: The Coalition for Justice in the Middle East. "The U.S. foreign policy and international courts consider the settlements illegal." The US does not give a hoot about the settlements and their expansion. It is time that we realize that neither Bush nor Obama would lift a finger to oppose settlements. It is unbecoming when comrades in struggle sound so naive. (thanks David)
