The resolution, which blames only Israel for all problems of the area and calls to recognize Hamas as a peace partner, was sponsored by the 4th Congressional District of North Carolina, which includes Chapel Hill.
(See Page 12, name of resolution:
26. BRINGING A JUST PEACE TO THE MIDDLE
EAST: ISRAEL AND PALESTINE (4TH CD) )
The member of Congress representing that district is David Price, an eleven term congressman.
J-Street, the purportedly pro-Israel organization, enthusiastically endorses Price:
Apparently, J-Street agrees that US military aid to Israel must be eliminated, that Hamas must be recognized, and that the PLO bears no responsibility for anything.
Can J-Street explain to us exactly what makes this one-sided joke of a resolution "pro-Israel" and why they are soliciting money to donate to this nutcase? I'd really love to know.
