BADIL, in its newspaper Haq alawda, published a special issue on the Israeli war on Gaza and requested an article from the authors on the growing organizing being done by Jewish Americans in opposition to the brutal assault on the Palestinian people of Gaza. The article, written by Marilyn Kleinberg Neimark and Donna Nevel at the end of the summer, was published in Arabic in Haq alawda newspaper, issue no 59, September 2014. The link to the Arabic piece is here, and below is the original piece in English. (The authors note that the piece was written before the Open Hillel conference held mid-October in Cambridge, MA. The conference brought together hundreds of students across the US to challenge the rigid political litmus test on Palestine and Israel imposed by Hillel and the mainstream Jewish community.)
