Screenshot from an article at Mondoweiss. It reads: “This is how hasbara culture has benighted Jewish political culture. It has created a world in which AIPAC and “the Jews” are interchangeable, in which any real reckoning with Gaza is framed as blood libel, and in which the line between a J Street Democrat and an actual antisemite is almost impossible to draw.”

Screenshot reads, “PACBI has privately urged Beinart to cancel, particularly given his condemnation of Israel’s genocide and his welcome shift over the last few years in recognition of fundamental and inalienable Palestinian rights and away from “liberal” Zionism, a desperate attempt to make Israel’s Zionist regime of settler-colonialism, dehumanization, and elimination of the Palestinian natives seem palatable. We now publicly call on him to immediately cancel this unethical, unjustifiable engagement that, regardless of its content, can only be used to whitewash the unspeakable crimes committed by Israel and its institutions, including TAU, against Indigenous Palestinians.”
