There's no room left for "progressives except for palestine" in the socialist movement. DSA must act as a material counterweight to the zionist lobby, and it requires us to hold firm against the drone of lesser-evil politics. AIPAC doesn't engage in it, nor should we.
NEW: DSA's National Political Committee passed two resolutions tonight regarding Los Angeles mayoral candidate Nithya Raman, setting up processes to potentially force DSA's Los Angeles chapter to rescind its endorsement of her campaign and/or expel her from DSA.
Here are copies of the 2 resolutions that passed:
Rescinding endorsement: docs.google.com/document/d/1…
Expulsion: docs.google.com/document/d/1…

“If those Palestinians hadn’t come and started throwing rocks, I probably would not have survived,” veteran Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine told Jasper Nathaniel after she was brutally beaten by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank, according to Nathaniel.
Speaking to Ben Rhodes on Pod Save the World, Nathaniel recounted the details of the October 16 attack on Palestinian olive harvesters, how Palestinian villagers risked their lives to rescue Levine, and how Israeli soldiers subsequently shot a Palestinian man and blocked paramedics.
“Do Palestinians have a right to defend themselves through armed struggle, if that’s what it takes?” Nathaniel asked.
“And if not, do you suggest they lay down and die and let their village get overrun and let Heidi Levine get killed and accept the fate that the settlers have in mind for them, which they will openly tell you is to wipe them off the map?”

Great bit where U.S. politicians go to the West Bank, get subjected to Israeli security measures and "expose" what everyone already knows about them, come home, and then immediately spend that credibility on saying that Israel isn't that bad.
I’m grieving the deaths of the two Israeli soldiers killed in Hebron today, and praying for the full & speedy recovery of those who were injured.
I’ve spoken out loudly this week against Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, which imposes violence on a daily basis, and I will continue to do so. But violence is not the path to ending it — or to achieving safety, freedom, and peace for both Palestinians and Israelis.
And neither is collective punishment or ethnic cleansing of an entire neighborhood, or punishing millions of people for the criminal act of two, which Netanyahu has promised to enact in response.
I’ve seen a lot this week and I’ll have more to say about in the coming days (I’m on my way home shortly). There is a path to ending this excruciating cycle of violence. It starts by insisting that every life is sacred, that everyone is created in God’s image.
For now: Shabbat Shalom, to everyone who believes in the hard work of making peace & justice a reality, for everyone.

Instead of qt'ing that useless liberal zionist, here is a statement from the PFLP's armed wing mourning the two martyrs who conducted the heroic operation in Al-Khalil [Hebron] which resulted in the deaths of two fascist soldiers of the occupation army & injury of three others.

🚨 Liberal process critique alert!
The problem for Murphy is merely a lack of a "workable plan" to protect American soldiers, spies and imperial forts halfway around the world, not any opposition to the slaughter & supreme international crime of initiating a war of aggression.

realmente eligieron a una persona que nunca ha trabajado en su vida para dirigir el país durante el que probablemente sea el peor fenómeno del niño en décadas

Both Ro Khanna & Brad Lander went to the West Bank & got detained by IDF. Afterward both still refuse to support an arms embargo & sanctions on Israel. Liberal Zionism cannot have the best interest of Palestinians in mind, because it must have the best interest of Israel in mind.

I’ve never seen this proposal and it hasn’t been submitted to the NPC. Christian is innovating a bold internal organizing strategy here:

As a reminder Bowman, you called the principled organizers asking you to not supply the genociders with bombs psyops at the time. I'm glad you shifted, but this is not personal. Nithya can commit to BDS as you did, and the organization has a duty to uphold its line.

All Nithya needs to do is commit to our minimum standards alongside 100s of candidates across the US. We don't negotiate with blood soaked hands: no pothole politics while throwing Palestine under the bus. We don't pick and choose when to be in solidarity across borders.
The National Political Committee declared DSA-LA’s endorsement of Nithya Raman in violation of DSA’s organizational principles and processes. So where do we go from here?

When we got suspended from Cornell for our peaceful, anti-genocide encampment, Cornell admin threatened to attach a permanent notice to our transcripts about the suspensions. Cornell chose to protect this rapist, and chose not to notify or warn NSU about him.
New: One of the Cornell students accused of gang rape transferred to a Florida university.
The university says it was unaware of the allegations when it admitted him, raising questions about what disciplinary info follows students between colleges.
