A series of “progressive” Jewish organizations are setting up prayer groups for Tisha B’Av demanding that immigration camps in the US be shut down and, presumably, the migrants be given opportunities to become full US citizens or at least to have more rights given to them.
One wonders, though, how come they are silent on how Palestinians are treated in Arab countries for over seventy years?
They’ve been in camps for seven decades. They’ve been discriminated against. They have been stopped from becoming citizens of their host countries. And most of them want very badly to be offered citizenship.
Why aren’t these supposedly progressive groups advocating for Palestinian human rights in Arab countries? Why do they care more about people from Central America than Palestinians?
