Justifying Israeli War Crimes By Reem Salahi
Having left Gaza now, I am trying to come to terms with what I saw, what I heard and honestly, what I don’t think I will ever understand – the justification. Continue reading

A Camp Follower Who Aims to Please: How Anthony Cordesman Proved that Israel Fought a Clean War By Norman G. Finkelstein
This preposterous, barely literate ‘analysis’ Cordesman cobbled together after his junket is unlikely to fool anyone, although in fairness to camp follower Cordesman it must be said that he plainly did his best to please and the American Jewish Committee plainly got its money’s worth from him. Continue reading

OCCUPATION PALESTINE: Zionism Up Close, Personal And Despicable
If you disagree with the tenets of Zionism or the actions of Israel in the slightest, then you’re an anti-Semite–or in my case, a self-hating Jew. Continue reading

Sami Jamil Jadallah – The Forbidden Debate
I am sure all Palestinians and the Arab world, with the exception of the very few Palestinians who are on the payroll of the PLO know well that the PLO lost any and all of whatever legitimacy it had to begin with 20 years ago. Continue reading

Zionism and the road to Gaza’s killing fields
Zionism was never about religion but a conspiracy to create a gendarme state amongst the ‘unreliable’ indigenous Middle East states and to protect oil interests. Continue reading

The Final Solution is a No-State Solution By William Bowles
One can only come to the conclusion that the destruction of the physical infrastructure of the Gaza Strip, let alone the thousands of dead and injured, is intended to make the place ininhabitable leaving only the West Bank as the putative Palestinian state. Continue reading

Gilad Atzmon: The Wisdom of Edwin Montagu
I deny that Palestine is to-day associated with the Jews or properly to be regarded as a fit place for them to live in. The Ten Commandments were delivered to the Jews on Sinai. It is quite true that Palestine plays a large part in Jewish history, but so it does in modern Mahommendan history,… Continue reading

David Parker: Palestine: the Architecture of Apartheid
According to Weizman, the natural and built features of the landscape function as weapons and ammunition for the conflict. The Occupied Territories have become a series of layers and territories, each manipulated by the Israeli authorities. Borders are porous for Israelis but solid for Palestinians. Checkpoints are a source of humiliation. Continue reading

Ilan Pappe: State of Denial: Israel, 1948-2008
The 1948 war’s diplomatic maneuvers and military campaigns are well engraved in Israeli Jewish historiography. What is missing is the chapter on the ethnic cleansing carried out by the Jews in 1948: 500 Palestinian villages and 11 urban neighborhoods were destroyed, 700,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes, and several thousands more were massacred. Why… Continue reading

Ilan Pappe: State of Denial: Israel, 1948-2008
As long as the moral lesson is not learned, the state of Israel will continue to exist as a hostile enclave at the heart of the Arab world. It would remain the last reminder of the colonialist past that complicates not only Israel’s relationship with the Palestinians, but with the Arab world as a whole. Continue reading

Tariq A. Al-Maeena: ‘US supporting Israeli-sponsored terrorism’

Yousef Abudayyeh – It Was Never About Borders
The Palestinian-Zionist conflict is not about disputed borders, it’s about the very existence of the indigenous inhabitants of Palestine. The Zionist invaders came to Palestine because according to the Zionists, Palestine was a land with no people and needed to be filled with “people who have no land.” Unless the whole world and especially the… Continue reading

Occupation by another name By Ran HaCohen
In the past, peace talks were supposed to lead to a peace agreement, which would in turn lead to peace; now, not even that little is assumed. What the negotiations are expected to yield is at best a ‘shelf agreement’ to be implemented at some vague point in the future, or not. No one believes… Continue reading
