I am a proud Jewish American.
My father fled Poland in 1921 to escape poverty and antisemitism.
Those in his family who stayed were murdered by the Nazis.
Since childhood, I have known very well where antisemitism, racism, fanaticism and demagoguery lead.
So let me be clear.
Speaking out against the horrific and inhumane actions of Israel, and its extremist leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, is notantisemitic.
Speaking out about the dangerous and destructive role that Israel plays in shaping US foreign and military policy is notantisemitic.
It is, in fact, what every member of Congress and every American should be doing

Considering what happened during the Holocaust, if anyone should be opposed to what I being done to the Palestinian people, it should be anyone of Jewish descent. My great-grandparents by marriage were Holocaust survivors. I think they would be horrified by the atrocities being committed by netanyahu.
