Summary

A US organization treated in Palestine: A Socialist Introduction as a key BDS partner, leader of the Deadly Exchange campaign against US–Israeli police exchange programs, and one of the more than forty international Jewish groups that in 2018 condemned conflating criticism of Israel with antisemitism (Palestine: A Socialist Introduction, lines 1399-1445, 1611-1627, 1678-1688).

Details

  • Its Deadly Exchange campaign exposes how US–Israeli police partnership entrenches Israeli apartheid and exacerbates the racism, militarism and brutality of US police forces (lines 1405-1420).
  • Chapter 9 treats the same campaign as a leading effort connecting Black and Palestinian oppression, which helped lead Durham, North Carolina’s council to vote unanimously in April 2018 to ban its law enforcement from working with Israel (lines 1678-1688).
  • The book’s Chapter One notes credit its August 8, 2018 press release, “Revealed: Deputy Director of ICE Sent by the ADL for Training with the Israeli Military” (lines 1968-1972).
