Highlighting the words and actions of Jewish people of conscience on this genocide will often get you accused to tokenism by zionists. Please don't make it easy for them by calling these people good Jews, they aren't. They're either just good people or, as an organisation, they read the writing on the wall and have decided they can't stay silent any longer.

All credit due to them to for finally taking a stand, but 'finally' is right. They're making this statement after 9 months of slaughter that many of us (including many Jewish people and other Jewish organisations) have been condemning from the start.
