Voices from Holy Land Online Film Salon: "Living with Zionism: Israel, Palestine & the US"

While the ideology of Zionism has a long history, its manifestations today have resulted in severe injustices in Israel, Palestine, and the United States.

- In Israel, a Nation State law has produced scenes of apartheid reminiscent of 1930’s Germany and Jim Crow America.
- In the occupied West Bank, fanatical Zionist settlers live under civil laws, while Palestinians live under harsh military rule.
- In the United States, college administrators expel anti-zionist student protestors, labeling them “anti-Semitic,” while Christian Zionists send millions in tax-free dollars to Israeli “charities” and support local, state, and federal laws that threaten Americans’ First Amendment rights.

Our Israeli, Palestinian, and American panelists will discuss the consequences of Zionism on the lives of ordinary people in the Holy Land.
