Fantastic freelance Israeli journalist Noam Sheizaf examines in Haaretz the rise in the concept of a one-state solution amongst the settler Right: It’s still not a full-fledged political camp and there are still holes in the theory. But although its advocates do not seem to be working together, the plans they put forward are remarkably…

British Jews can only imagine partition in the Middle East
Depressingly predictable results from British Jews. Unimaginative, ignorant of history, sold lies by their leadership and unable to see that the two-state solution will never happen. And then what? Deafening silence: The majority of British Jews favour a “two-state solution” to the situation in Israel, and more than half would support negotiations with Hamas, according…
Beijing isn’t Washington’s replacement for Tel Aviv
China, Israel and the Jews; a long, tortuous, sometimes mutually beneficial relationship. But if Israel expects to have found a newfound friend in a post-American world, think again: It is hard to say just how much influence Israel has on China. Israel can’t expect the Chinese to come to its defense, diplomatically or otherwise. There’s…

Jewish American journalist Max Blumenthal interviews one of the Palestinian politicians targeted by the Israeli occupation forces, a world away from the “only democracy in the Middle East”: On 9 July, as Israeli Border Police officers brutalized demonstrators at the weekly protest in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of occupied East Jerusalem, forcing them away from…
Americans love the image of Israel
Decades of false propaganda have served the Zionist state well but these numbers will start to change soon enough: Support for Israel among Americans is at a near record high, a new poll showed. According to the Gallup Poll, 63 percent of Americans say their sympathies in the Middle East conflict are with Israel, while…
Israel should not wonder why few people love her
A wonderful column by Larry Derfner in the belly of the Zionist beast, the Jerusalem Post: Given the way Israel behaves now, it’s pretty sad to remember that it was envisioned as a country where the Jews ran their own national affairs – but nobody else’s. Now it’s not enough for Israel to have its…
