I sent the following (now unpublished) letter to the Sydney Morning Herald: Israel’s raid on the Gaza flotilla has been almost universally condemned but Paul Sheehan (Beware the words of a wolf dressed in sheikh’s clothing, 7 June) asserts that Muslim fundamentalists, the Left and Greens have formed an unholy alliance to destroy the Jewish…

With heads in the sand and nowhere to go but down
After the Gaza flotilla massacre, at least some of the American mainstream are actually reporting on the reality in Gaza itself. People may not be starving there but they’re living without dignity and humanity. A breeding ground for terrorism. There is certainly some Zionist self-criticism (here and here) that clearly outlines the utterly futile Gaza…

The quick flotilla round-up (aka Israel has lost it)
Zionist groups in the US wish Barack Obama was more supportive and remain disappointed that the American President hasn’t invaded Turkey. Israel’s Deputy UN Ambassador says whatever his government tells him to say. Israel’s President Shimon Peres – the best friend apartheid South Africa could ever have – says that the Israeli soldiers were “humane”.…

Thank God Israel stopped those 700 terrorists
What is a man to do who simply loves Israel like a fine wine, an aged cheese, a voluptuous lady? Over to you, Murdoch man Andrew Bolt: Jihad was also the spirit on the Mavi Marmara as it sailed for Gaza. Those on board refused offers by Israel that they dock at an Israeli port…

The terrorist ship set sail (so IDF friends say)
Just in case you weren’t sure the real agenda behind the Gaza flotilla, loony neo-con Zionist Melanie Philips tells all: ‘Peace convoy’? This was an Islamist terror ambush

Please ask the hard questions about Israel’s anti-democratic streak
While Israel continues to hold two senior Australian journalists, including reporter Paul McGeough, in detention – wonderful media management there, Zionist state, just jolly, imagine what they’ll say about you when they leave – Deakin University’s Scott Burchill wants us to question the very nature of the current Israeli government: The humiliation of pro-Zionist Biden…

Obama knows that Hamas must be engaged and yet and yet…
Engage Hamas today or face guaranteed Middle East “peace” failure: The United States is sending a succession of envoys to engage with Hamas but lacks the bravery to talk to the Islamist movement openly, its leader, Khaled Meshal, said in an interview with the Guardian.

Perhaps Israel would like to silence Gazans permanently
The Gaza flotilla continues its merry way toward the Strip before the inevitable provocation by Israel (so much for Gaza being an independent territory when Israel says it has the right to stop the ships landing on the shore). The cost of the Israeli operation will be millions of shekels. Such money well spent. Gideon…

How Palestine remains central to the Muslim world
Al-Jazeera English reports on the (mainly) Turkish contingent of the Gaza Flotilla on its way to the Strip: In a separate but related item, Turkey’s rise as a major power is being noted across the Arab world.

How the far-right is gaining support and love
The toxic mix of social disaffection, racism, growing unemployment and September 11 leads to this, a rising phenomenon across the Western world. We ignore such trends at our peril; such people can’t simply be dismissed as crazy and their views must be fought and challenged: In the back room of a sparsely decorated pub in…
