Colorado Palestine Solidarity Campaign

About

">Originally formed in March 2003, the Colorado Palestine Solidarity Campaign (CPSC) has worked steadily to advance the cause of justice for the Palestinian people by helping to coordinate various independent initiatives, providing educational material, and generally trying to help encourage pro-Palestine activism throughout Colorado. As always, the CPSC is an ad hoc coalition without any formal membership, anyone interested in participating is more than welcome assuming they are not racists (including anti-Semitism) or religious bigots, for whom we have zero tolerance. Visit this website for new developments and projects around Colorado promoting justice for Palestine.

The History and "Morals" of Ethnic Cleansing

By VICTORIA BUCH
I arrived in Israel 40 years ago. It took me many years to understand that the very existence of my country, as it is today, is based on an ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. The project started many years ago. Its seed can be traced to the basic fallacy of the Zionist movement, which set out to establish a Jewish-national state in a location already inhabited by another nation. Under these conditions, one has, at most, a moral right to strive for a bi-national state; establishing a national state implies, more or less by definition, ethnic cleansing of the previous inhabitants.
