Israel does not grant equal rights for all, privileging Jewish people at the expense of the indigenous inhabitants of the land– the Palestinians. The Palestinians are living under a brutal Israeli military occupation with no legal rights as more and more of their land continues to be stolen by Israelis.

Also, the ADL is not a reputable source for anything, as they often are the ones defaming people rather than combating bigotry. See Alison’s response to their attacks on her:

Her presentations have been extremely informative, especially for people that don’t know very much about what’s going in Israel-Palestine due to information suppression in the media… Thanks for covering this event!
