Carolick Glick, Jerusalem Post columnist, pro-setter, anti-Obama and hardline Zionist, tells us that Israel has no demographic issues and she kindly offers a “peace plan” of her own: Both the Fayyad plan supporters and the one-state solution crowd believe that their plans can indirectly advance the so-called peace process. In their view, frightened of both…

Goldstone is a man above equals
Following Israeli President Shimon Peres and his immature and derogatory comment towards Richard Goldstone, the South African judge responds maturely: I am content to be judged by my actions over the course of my career both in terms of my professional judicial career and my voluntary service. After all, no one likes to be accused…
Zionism doesn’t learn that shooting the messenger only leads to isolation
Israel, you are desperate and pathetic. Human rights isn’t an option, it’s a necessity if you want to be respected: America’s leading human rights organisation has accused Israel and its supporters of an “organised campaign” of false allegations and misinformation, including “extremely personal attacks” on its staff, in an attempt to discredit the group over…
The grand Jewish tradition of siding with the underdog in Gaza
The plight of Gaza is not forgotten here in Australia. I salute any individual going on the upcoming Gaza Freedom March: Vivienne Porzsolt, a spokesperson for Jews Against the Occupation Sydney (JAO), is one of 10 activists from NSW who will spend their summer break challenging Israel’s defiance of international law. She will take part…
Some transparency in the life of Gaza
The Gaza based Palestinian Centre for Human Rights have put out two press releases over the last days (here and here) condemning the Hamas government’s suppression of free speech and association in the Strip. This shows once again that Gaza isn’t a true police state (despite profound problems with accountability and democracy) but a place…
US public want justice for Palestinians, not dead end decisions
One more indication of a populace far ahead of the corrupted political elites: The U.S. House of Representatives passed a non-binding resolution Tuesday condemning the Goldstone Report on Israeli and Hamas actions taking during the Gaza War as “irredeemably biased” against Israel and calling on U.S. President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton…
Goldstone smeared by Peres in typical Israeli style
Richard Goldstone is the leading international judge tasked to investigate Israeli and Hamas war crimes in Gaza. Israeli President Shimon Peres makes a fool of himself while in Brazil (playing the man is a Zionist favourite): Goldstone is a small man, devoid of any sense of justice, a technocrat with no real understanding of jurisprudence.…
J Street broadens public debate on Israel
My following article is published today in Online Opinion: Distinguished South African judge Richard Goldstone wrote the UN report on Israel’s December/January war against the Gazan people. It detailed war crimes by both Israel and Hamas and demanded both entities fully investigate the serious charges of targeting civilians and infrastructure. “Pro-Israel and pro-peace” lobby J…
Israelis believe in two states (in words but not in deeds)
Gideon Levy in Haaretz: Along with opinion polls showing that most Israelis support a two-state solution, it appears that those who seek peace and justice are in a clear majority. Everyone is sitting cozily in the “painful concessions” lounge. But this of course is a delusion. As soon as the spotlights are turned off and…
When one, tiny nation didn’t like war crimes in Gaza
Satire is dead. One little country dares vote to investigate war crimes in Gaza and the Jewish state is appalled, outraged and probably about to accuse the country of anti-Semitism. Ludicrous: Israel is sending a foreign ministry official to the Solomon Islands next week to seek an explanation as to why it was the only…
