What is anti-Israeli rhetoric?
Reader comment on item: Chicago's Arab Festival Drops Israel-Bashing

Israel continues to occupy Palestine (UN Recognized State), and continues to subject the Palestinian people to brutal, inhumane, and devastating occupational tactics and strategies. Many of the Israeli settlers carry out racist attacks on Palestinians and on international observers who try to protect them.

Those who try to deny these facts are trying to deny what many Israeli settlers and officials are very proud of - just ask them.

These are all facts, and I challenge anyone to observe the occupation and refute these facts.

Is that anti-Israeli rhetoric? If it is, then the world needs to hear more anti-Israeli rhetoric, because that is the truth and the Palestinians are in desperate need for the world to recognize the conditions and injustice of their occupation.
