Yesterday, B’Tselem בצלם, the largest human rights group in Israel, published a paper declaring a shift in their language from describing Israel as a ‘prolonged occupation’ to describing it as apartheid. This is an important win for the Palestine movement and a demonstration of the power of Palestinian organizers who have for decades been calling the Israeli state what it is, an apartheid regime.
“Calling things by their proper name – apartheid – is not a moment of despair: rather, it is a moment of moral clarity, a step on a long walk inspired by hope. See the reality for what it is, name it without flinching – and help bring about the realisation of a just future.”
