Thanks Luko, another useful resource is the Discriminatory Law Database at the Adalah website: http://adalah.org/eng/Israeli-Discriminatory-Law-Database After my 45 years of occasional but ongoing Palestine solidarity work, my friend Frances ReMillard has been helping me to see into these deeper structural realities of the Zionist state of Israel. Frances is the director of Utahns for a Just Peace in the Holy Land <jphl.org>; she became a political activist a decade ago, already in her sixties, when her college age kids brought their Palestinian friends home and Frances was shocked to begin to learn about the oppression of the Palestinians. Frances is a retired scientist who wants to understand the basic reality of things. A recent experience of hers that brought new insight into the nature of the state of Israel was participating in the (Bertrand) Russell Tribunal on Palestine which took place in Capetown < http://www.russelltribunalonpalestine.com/en/sessions/south-africa/south-africa-session-%E2%80%94-full-findings/cape-town-session-summary-of-findings> in November 2011. One of the major resources for the Tribunal's deliberations was the South Africa Human Sciences Research Council's 2009 research paper on: *Occupation, Colonialism, Apartheid? A re-assessment of Israel’s practices in the occupied Palestinian territories under international law* which is available at http://electronicintifada.net/files/090608-hsrc.pdf Because the HSRC's study is heavy legalese that is difficult for the layperson to digest, Frances wrote and published a reader friendly summary "Is Israel an Apartheid State?" which can be downloaded at: <http://jphl.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=40> btw Frances is not an 'Apartheid Israel' fanatic, she readily agrees with Noam Chomsky, Bishop Desmond Tutu and others that Zionist Israel is more dangerously oppressive than South African apartheid.
