To The Daily Sun,

Last week I had lunch with New Hampshire State Rep. Maria Perez. She had just been chastised for using the phrase, “From the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free.” This is not calling for the destruction of Israel. This is a cry for an end to military occupation of their land. It is a cry for the right to live free of child arrests, night raids, stolen water and the brutal campaign of repression against civilians. It is a cry for Palestinians to have the freedom to travel from one town to another, to have a secure home, to have the right to farm their own land, to have the same rights as everyone else living in that land. Isn't standing up for human rights for everyone America’s treasured value?
