Israel

In a members’ statement, Anthony Housefather, a Liberal, commented on the U.K. Green Party’s weekend motion declaring itself anti-Zionist and calling for the dismantling of the state of Israel. He said Zionism is the belief that Jewish people have a right to self-determination in their ancestral homeland, that people can support that right while still criticizing Israel’s government, and that denying Israel’s right to exist is a form of antisemitism. He urged people to speak out against this idea in Canada and abroad.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
