Draft Democratic platform fails to endorse justice for Palestinians

Kathryn Shihadah July 22, 2020 annexation, BDS, DMFI, DNC, Jerusalem, joe biden, occupation, terrorism, two-state solution

Palestinian rights are becoming mainstream, and support for Israel is declining – especially among Democrats. But you’d never guess it from the Democratic Party platform. (If you’re not happy with this, there’s a place you can upload a short video telling the DNC what you want the platform to contain…)
