This is not ever going to be done, as israhell runs the US and won't let it ever happen.

That's why I said yes when the US Campaign asked me to go on the "Separate Is Never Equal" tour, together with Rev. Eddie Makue from South Africa. We crisscrossed the United States and spoke to thousands of people about apartheid, then and now. We held public events and meetings on campuses, with faith communities, and in congressional offices. During the tour, I learned firsthand how well the US Campaign works for change in U.S. policy to uphold human rights, including freedom from Israel's brutal occupation, the right of return, and equality for all. That's why I joined the Olive Branch Club to help sustain the work of the US Campaign. And that's why I'm asking you to join the Olive Branch Club too. Click to play video. I have watched the US Campaign grow from a handful of member groups 10 years ago to more than 350 today, and I know how valuable this coalition is to the future of justice and peace in the Middle East. Give whatever you can afford every month, whether it's $20, $40, $60 or more. Plus, the US Campaign will plant an olive tree for a Palestinian farmer for every $120 you give each year. That way, we help sustain this great grassroots movement for change in the United States while we plant the seeds of hope on Palestinian land. Romi, join me and join the Olive Branch Club. It's not too much to ask to help build a better world.
