I understand that I/P essays aren’t banned, but having to get them approved is almost as bad. I’m sure Buhdy doesn’t want to be in the position of having to approve or reject essay content, and I don’t think any posters here like the idea of having to submit an essay for approval.
The Israel/Palestine crisis isn’t going to go away, it’s going to get worse, which is all the more reason why Docudharma should be providing multiple perspectives and views. That can be done through essay commentary.
who deserve far better treatment…
Quotes from Jewish Voice for Peace letter asking that we take a stand
We ask you to heed the words of Elie Wiesel who said, “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”
…snip…
Sign our open letter to the leaders of the American Jewish Committee, the Anti-Defamation League, and the Simon Wiesenthal Center- Foxman, Harris and Hier:You must speak out.
Because they have the ear of Israeli leaders, speaking out against Israel’s anti-democratic actions can make a difference.
You can find the letter at the Jewish Voice for Peace website if you care to look.

Sometimes I get the awful feeling that we’re just talking to ourselves, in some kind of multi-headed zone of silence.
I especially got that feeling after I was banned from every centrist Democrat site on the internet, from Daily Kos to Open Left.
But what the heck!
If we build it, maybe they will come!
And meanwhile…
Ban all political advertising on TV!
Have they been banned?
I hope not! Not over I/P! I followed your link, but I don’t understand.
