Mumbai and the Israeli OccupationLast week's attacks in Mumbai once again underscore the failure of the Bush Administration to adequately address the primary threat to international stability: Israel's occupation of the West Bank.
Mumbai further underscores the urgency of immediately ending the occupation and establishing a Palestinian state.
So long as the occupation continues, it will be inevitable that frustrated youth, living without hope for a better future, will resort to the use of violence.
The world must not continue to passively watch as innocents die because of Israel's refusal to grant the basic rights of the Palestinian people.
