The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today said the Israeli government is moving the genocide from Gaza to the occupied West Bank after Israeli forces drove thousands of people from their homes there, demolished entire neighborhoods, murdered an eight-months pregnant woman and her baby, and ransacked a renowned Palestinian bookstore.
In a statement, CAIR said:
“The radical Israeli government is clearly trying to move its genocidal campaign of slaughter and destruction from Gaza to the West Bank, where Israeli occupation forces are driving thousands of Palestinians from their homes, destroying entire neighborhoods, kidnapping hundreds, and randomly shooting others, including an eight-months pregnant woman and her baby. Indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu is a sociopath leading an army of war criminals, and our government must stop spending American taxpayer dollars on his latest campaign of murder, ethnic cleansing and destruction in the West Bank.”
