For Australian diplomacy – usually little more than a rubber-stamp for everything Israel does – this is significant: Australia was last night preparing to abstain in a United Nations vote on a resolution urging Israel and the Palestinian Authority to investigate allegations of war crimes committed during last year’s war in Gaza. The UN General…

Jews, stop using the Holocaust card
The fine words of a former Australian Prime Minister: Kevin Rudd should take a much harder line against Israel in the wake of mounting evidence its Mossad secret service used doctored Australian passports in its plot to murder a senior Hamas militant, former prime minister Malcolm Fraser said yesterday. Last night, Australian Federal Police investigators…
How much do we really know about Israel’s reach in Australia?
A story in today’s Sydney Morning Herald – on an issue I’ve been receiving information about recently, privately of course, though something I could never prove – suggests that Israel’s infiltration of Australia (and many Western states) is something crying out to be discussed: ASIO is investigating at least three dual Australian-Israeli citizens who they…
“A long friendship is on the line”
The Age’s Diplomatic Editor Daniel Flitton: Spies, lies and murder: Australia’s relationship with Israel has been dragged into the mud, with the potential that this scandal could get a great deal worse. An ugly episode, indeed. No diplomatic niceties softened the message from Foreign Minister Stephen Smith yesterday – if Israeli officials have tampered with…
Israel denies even knowing anything about anything regarding Hamas and Dubai
This is priceless. While the Australian public is starting to get an insight into Israel’s criminality and blatant incompetence… – this man is a terrorist and we can kill him…because we’re Israel – these comments from an Israeli hack on ABC Radio this morning is, well, let him hang himself: MARIUS BENSON: Regardless of the sources…
The Green Prince was a traitor to the Palestinian cause
A story that doesn’t really need any comment: The son of a leading Hamas figure, who famously converted to Christianity, served for over a decade as the Shin Bet security service’s most valuable source in the militant organization’s leadership, Haaretz has learned. Mosab Hassan Yousef is the son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a Hamas founder…
Will Australia stand up to Israeli passport threat? (don’t hold your breath)
The fun continues (and let’s see how serious Australia takes this clear Zionist breach; I’m guessing they’ll be a little public fury but not much else): Police have 15 more suspects in the assassination of a Hamas leader in Dubai, including three who were allegedly travelling on Australian passports, CNN reported last night. Included in…
Hamas has a rat in the ranks?
It seems quite possible: Hamas last night vigorously denied that a renegade from its own ranks helped set up the assassination of Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in a Dubai hotel room last month, a shock claim made by Dubai’s police chief, as echoes from the killing and its investigation continued to resound in the Middle…
Netanyahu knew all about the murder of Mabhouh
The Mossad murder of a Hamas man in Dubai will not simply disappear. The London Times has more details: In early January two black Audi A6 limousines drove up to the main gate of a building on a small hill in the northern suburbs of Tel Aviv: the headquarters of Mossad, the Israeli secret intelligence…
British citizens could be killed over Israeli hit in Dubai (thank you Mossad)
The likely Mossad assassination of the Hamas official in Dubai is turning into yet another PR disaster for Israel. Here’s Paul McGeough on Democracy Now! late last week explaining the latest and Robert Fisk on Al-Jazeera. Now this: The lives of the six British citizens whose identities were stolen by a Mossad assassination team are…
