A democracy in name only and a growing tendency towards fascism. Zionism grows uglier by the day: More than half of Jewish Israelis think human rights organizations that expose immoral behavior by Israel should not be allowed to operate freely, and think there is too much freedom of expression here, a recent survey found. The…

When are we going to read about Israel’s backing of Zionist terrorism?
The issue of “incitement” is often a convenient distraction in the Middle East. Israel accuses the Palestinians of brain-washing their children to hate Jews and Israelis. Of course, and far less discussed, is the mainstream Zionist hatred of Palestinians and their civil and human rights. Palestinians are expected to accept Israel as a Jewish state…
Washington Post considers the argument for racial division in Palestine
Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting on another corporate media moment of ignorance and bias: The headline of this Washington Post piece today (4/26/10) is certainly not promising: “Sharing a West Bank Highway Proves a Tall Order for Israel, Palestinians” The highway in question was built by the Israeli government on occupied Palestinian territory. Since 2000,…
A view of the UN from Latin America
Miguel D’Escoto, former president of the United Nations General Assembly and former foreign minister of Nicaragua, tells Democracy Now!: Palestine has not been given statehood. And when the split of Palestine for a Jewish state and an Arab state, when that was decided upon—not really decided upon, when that decision was imposed, with all kinds…
What is happening in the West Bank away from clueless journalist’s eyes
Day in and day out the sight of armed Israeli soldiers in the West Bank protecting settlers and destroying Palestinian land, all illegal under international law, continues. Most of the world’s media refuses to show these images. Poor, little Israel must be protected. Joseph Dana, an American Jew living in Israel, continues to blog about…
The Israeli boxer from the former Soviet Union (but don’t feel patriotic)
Heard about the Orthodox boxing champ Yuri Foreman, studying to be a Rabbi, soon to fight in Yankee Stadium?
Message to non-Jews: don’t mention Jews unless you say you love them every five seconds
God help the Zionist lobby. This joke, told by US National Security Adviser James Jones at a Zionist think-tank, has offended the Anti-Defamation League. Seriously. Yes, it’s impossible to tell a joke about Jews without some Zionist group thinking a non-Jew is straying into inappropriate territory. Another own goal by the Zionist Diaspora:
Count the Jews on the side of angels today (only two hands are needed)
A wonderful column by Jerusalem Post commentator Larry Derfner. What humane, powerful and morally concise writing looks like: Judge Richard Goldstone, talking last October with a group of liberal North American rabbis, explained why he agreed to head the UN’s investigation of the war in Gaza. “I knew,” he said, “there would be strong and…
Obama is anti-Semitic, pro-Islam and anti-Israel (say rational protestors in New York)
Don’t you wish you were in New York yesterday at the Zionist/Christian protest against America’s meek and mild criticisms of Israel? Obama is an “anti-Israel” President, America’s first in history.
