The Jews. Ah, Zionist Jews. Inner Sydney council Marrickville recently endorsed BDS against Israel. And now this. Here’s a hint for the Zionists in our community. Please say this far more often and more publicly; the general community needs to hear your views about Arabs and how much Israel has deformed our religion over and…

Don’t tell me Israel isn’t a rogue nation
There is only one word for this; shameful: In a bleak but beautiful landscape of undulating stony hills I watched a group of Palestinian schoolchildren take their lessons yesterday in the open air next to a heap of rubble that, until this week, was their classroom. This is the village of Dkaika, about as far…
Chomsky: who says Israeli apartheid can’t last forever?
Noam Chomsky on the internal logic of empire: It’s pretty common now for supporters of the Palestinians and Palestinian leaders themselves to say, “Well, we have to abandon hope in the two-state solution.” As one of the Palestinian leaders said, “We should give Israel the key and let them take over the entire West Bank.…
Ashrawi refuses to let go of two-state equation
I’ve written for years about Palestinian politician Hanan Ashrawi, especially after her awarding in 2003 of the Sydney Peace Prize. The Zionist lobby were apoplectic, showing their usual humanity towards Arabs. Suffice to say, Ashrawi received the award but many people finally realised the kind of Jews who run the Zionist establishment; bullies who fear…
Australian mainstream politician (“left-winger”) shows yet more love for Zionism
What an undignified state of affairs. Here’s Anthony Albanese, Australia’s federal minister for transport and infrastructure and the federal member for Sydney’s Grayndler, writing in today’s Australian about the supposed problems with the Sydney Marrickville council backing BDS. The piece is filled with mistakes, untruths and glaring omissions, such as: – Albanese is married to…
Which Western leader advocated ethnic cleansing?
Guess who said this in 1989: Israel should have taken advantage of the suppression of the demonstrations in China [Tiananmen Square], when the world’s attention was focussed on what was happening in that country, to carry out mass expulsions among the Arabs of the Territories. However, to my regret, they did not support that policy…
Israel shares its murdering ways with good friends and allies
Just remind me why Western leaders aren’t complicit in countless war crimes? Israel’s military has been training British troops to fly drones similar to those used in alleged war crimes against Palestinians, Sky News has learned. Britain is buying 30 Watchtower WK450 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) which are based on the Israeli Elbit Hermes 450…
It’s like the whites in South Africa wishing the world ‘got’ oppression
You have to laugh (but not too hard). The complete lack of self-awareness amongst Zionists is striking. Do they gather together and draft talking points because so many of their arguments are the same these days. There’s no examination of why Israel is increasingly loathed. Occupation? Killing Palestinians? No, just that “Arabs” and others are…
BDS hits inner Sydney and Greens are leading the charge
A very good piece by Fiona Byrne, the Greens candidate for the electorate of Marrickville in inner Sydney and the current Mayor of Marrickville Council, on ABC’s Unleashed on why BDS is so important and has the support of her constituents. People don’t want to support Israeli apartheid anymore: On December 14 last year, Marrickville…
A direct challenge to the Australian Greens on Israel/Palestine
The following statement is written by Australian Jewish academic Ned Curthoys. I agree with its sentiments: Antony and I had a dream last night in which the important resolution by the NSW Greens in December of last year in support of an economic and cultural boycott of the colonialist Zionist project in Israel/Palestine was quickly…
