My following investigation appears in New Matilda today: An all-expenses paid trip to Israel? Why not? The Zionist lobby has been taking student leaders to Israel for ‘political education’. Antony Loewenstein reports on the effort to recruit young allies Zionist lobby trips to Israel, taking politicians, journalists and trade union leaders, have been occurring from…

Playing politics with Palestine? Perish the thought
Israel’s trusted friend in the Australian media, Rupert Murdoch’s The Australian, today publishes a piece that is so banal as to be comical. Guess what people, BDS supporters and Palestinian backers are daring to “play politics” with human rights in the Middle East. And what exactly does the Zionist lobby and Zionist propagandists in our…
A one-state solution is only way forward for Israel and Palestine
My following article appears today in The Conversation: How should the world react when a supposedly democratic state can’t acknowledge a 40-year-old occupation? When US Presidential candidate Mitt Romney… declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel… during a visit this weekend, he was playing into this mass delusion, and mouthing the official position of the American Zionist lobby.…
Israeli racism and inequality in its DNA
My following article appears in Lebanon’s Al Akhbar: “Moshe was simply not willing for the State of Israel to run him over anymore.” Moshe Silman, a son of Holocaust survivors, was an Israeli man who died last week after suffering second and third-degree burns on 94 percent of his body. In an Israeli first, a…
The Wire radio on illegal Israeli colonies
I was interviewed yesterday by the daily current affairs show, The Wire, talking about Israel’s recently released Levy report on settlements. Illegality? What illegality? There’s some classic delusional but typical Zionist lobbying in the piece, by Vic Alhadeff, saying the report is in fact good for peace. Seriously, does the Israel lobby receive its daily…
News flash; Victorian government, police and Zionist lobby upset that public have right to oppose Israel
Following this week’s decision in a Victorian magistrate’s court that found protestors had the right to oppose Israeli chocolate shop Max Brenner in public, now comes the inevitable whinging from the political elites. It’s not fair, they say, that citizens can speak out against wonderful democratic Israel. It’s unfair that people say nasty things about…
Why the Max Brenner case in Australia is victory for free speech over Palestine
A farcical case against activists who dared protest an Israeli company that backs the IDF. A Zionist community that remains in denial and believes they have the right, with politicians and many pundits, to silence serious public opposition to Israel. Even yesterday, the Israel lobby remained in denial, an authoritarian streak alive and well. A…
Important background to the Marrickville BDS story
Following my post earlier today about the issue of BDS in Australia and the role of Australian politicians siding blindly with the Zionist state, an insider sent me the following information which provides essential understanding of the truth behind the story. If you think politicians who embrace Israel are principled, think again: Sadly, this is…
Like good little lemmings, Australian politicians continue record of trashing Palestine
Here’s an article in yesterday’s Australian about the brave stance of the ALP against those shocking and principled Greens MPs and members who actually think about the Middle East without the only frame the blind can see, Israel. When history is written, and it’s happening right now, these hacks will be clearly seen on the…
