Misinformation
Clarified by OSFP
To
the Editors:
We
are writing to clarify some of the misinformation represented in
last weeks Perspectives page, which concerns us as members
of Oberlin Students for a Free Palestine.
SFP is a group of students (including Jews and Muslims) that opposes
the oppression of Palestinians by the Israeli government and military.
Within our group, we interpret this call in different ways. Each
of us has different ideologies and visions of what a future political
and social solution in Israel/Palestine could look like. As part
of a solidarity movement, we dont see it as our role to decide
what the answer is (one state, two states, red state, Jew state).
We do see it as our role to support Palestinian resistance to Israeli
occupation. We want to challenge to the best of our abilities the
structure by means of which the Israeli state oppresses Palestinians,
controlling their access to food, health care, water, shelter, jobs,
each other, and a viable state.
