Who really wants conflict with Iran?
As the drums of war continue to beat, just who is really telling the truth about the Islamic Republic? Since 2007, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) – with the support of the United States, Israel and European allies UK, France and Germany – has been demanding that Iran explain a set of purported internal…
Bibi laughs at Obama and he still asks for more

This is only going to get worse: Why, after all these years, are we still writing about settlements? This tiresome controversy has been raging ever since Israel captured the West…
Australian unions, Paul Howes, BDS and loving Israel

In an interview with Crikey, the author of Confessions of a Faceless Man said that he was a “critical friend of Israel” and the…
What the US press follows closely
This is “news” on the Huffington Post: Michelle Obama shines at state dinner in India
The Left don’t want or like Obama and that’s more than fine
I’m still in shock to see two progressive Americans talking on American cable TV about Barack Obama and the Left. Enjoy the view, it happens so rarely:
