Its time for American Jews to recognize they have been duped

"I believe Israeli Jews feel in the depth of their bones that Israels existence the way it is, is illegitimate. This is why the Israeli government reacts with such vitriol to the idea that the BDS, the boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign, for example, is an attempt to delegitimse Israel. This is the narrative they use. Losing the support of American Jews means losing the flimsy hold that Israeli Jews have on the sense that they have a right to have the kind of state they have an exclusively Jewish state created at the expense of, and on the ruins of an entire people, their country, their society, history and culture.
The Israeli state does everything in its power to obscure the true meaning of the Zionist movement, and obliterate the memory of what Israel did back in 1947-1948. In an ongoing campaign of misinformation, miseducation, outright lies, omissions and a manipulation of basic tribal feelings of fear and the need to belong, Israel works persistently to rub out what it is doing right now. The story of Susiya demonstrates that the settler-colonial process is alive and well. Israel continues to erase Palestinian villages and towns in order to spread itself further, continue to conquer and replace the indigenous people with its own."

Susiya is a Palestinian settlement which is in danger of being demolished to allow for more Israeli settlements. http://www.aljazeera.com/blogs/middleeast/2015/07/defiant-palestinian-bedouins-dread-eviction-susiya-150724074146914.html
