From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism (QUIT!) is a gay San Francisco Bay Area political action group supporting "boycott, divestment and sanctions" against Israel; and opposing Pinkwashing of the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.[1] It was founded in early 2001 by a member of LAGAI-Queer Insurrection.[2]

According to the Anti-Defamation League the group "supports divestment, the right of return for all Palestinians, immediate Israeli withdrawal from Palestinian Territories and describes Zionism as racism".[3][a]
