All Americans who speak about Palestine and Israel should exercise caution with our words, oppose all forms of bigotry, including antisemitism and anti-Palestinian racism, and clearly reject the targeting of both Palestinian and Israeli civilians.
It is long past time for President Biden to embrace this morally consistent position. He should start by securing a permanent cease-fire in Gaza and pursue a just, lasting peace before more generations of Palestinians grow up in refugee camps and witness a lifetime of injustice.
