ADL chief and others slam Netanyahu’s ‘ethnic cleansing’ rhetoric

Israeli Settlers Establish Illegal Outposts

Published: 17 September 2016

Last updated: 4 March 2024

Sorry Bibi, the Palestinians are not ‘ethnic cleansing’ Jewish settlers – Jonathan A. Greenblatt – Foreign Policy 13.09.16
Using words that hint of genocide for crass political ends is beneath the standards of Israel.

Palestinians: yes to Jews, no to settlers in our state
– Elhanan Miller – The Times of Israel 27.01.14

Settlement withdrawal and “ethnic cleansing”
– Matt Duss – Foundation for Middle East Peace 09.09.16
Palestinian leaders have made clear that Jews can be citizens of a future Palestinian state, but that they will not accept the presence of enclaves of Israeli settlers peppered throughout that state (as, of course, no state would).

Netanyahu is right: settlements aren’t the biggest obstacle to peace
– Dahlia Scheindlin – +972 Magazine 10.09.16
He is.

Standing up for Israel means saying 'Not In my name'
– Bradley Burston – Haaretz 13.09.16
No one has to take this anymore. No one has to accept that lies and quarter-truths and bigotry and demagoguery do Israel any good. The opposite is true.
