JUST DON'T CALL IT APARTHEID:
Israel shutters Palestinian human rights groups, drawing diplomatic backlash (Miriam Berger, 8/19/22, The Washington Post)
Israel closed the offices of five leading Palestinian rights organizations in an early-morning raid in Ramallah on Thursday, tightening its restrictions on civil society nearly a year after it labeled the organizations terrorist groups in an internationally criticized move. [...]The escalation is the latest blow for Palestinians who say they have shrinking space for political expression and dissent at a time when there is little international effort to end the conflict and Israeli occupation of Palestinian land.
The point of the Abraham Accords is to crush Muslim civil society.
