The Left and 9/11
Two views, one from here in Australia and the other on the global scene. From my perspective, the last decade has brought both remarkable levels of carnage by both Western actions and Islamists but also a growing awareness of where the real threats reside, and it isn’t from some men in a cave in Afghanistan…

Wikileaks reveals US helping maintain siege against Gaza
Well after Barack Obama came into power, this cable from August 2008 proves that Washington had every intention of helping its close friends; the dictatorship of Egypt and occupying Israel: Since the Egyptian-brokered “tahdiya” (“calming”) between Israel and Palestinian groups in Gaza took effect June 19, rocket attacks from Gaza have decreased, and Israeli public…

Israel faces total isolation but not to worry colonies will keep them warm at night
The times they are a changing. Decades of Zionist arrogance, paying off dictatorships and expanding an illegal occupation is starting to bite. Finally. Violence against Israelis is utterly pointless and counterproductive, and should be condemned, but after years of Israel literally getting away with murder, we shouldn’t be surprised. Welcome to the new Middle East…

Some are doing very well with this endless war post 9/11
The Los Angeles Times reports: It wasn’t long after the World Trade Center twin towers fell that U.S. Army special forces units were dispatched to the desolate outcroppings of Afghanistan to stalk and eradicate the Taliban. The commandos were outfitted with radios, night vision goggles and automatic rifles. But a select few carried a new…

Artwork from Gaza threatens Zionist lobby
This shows the desperation of a Zionist lobby that simply can’t handle the threat of hearing about Palestinians: The Museum of Children’s Art in Oakland (MOCHA) has decided to cancel an exhibit of art by Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip. The Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA), which was partnering with MOCHA to present the…

This is what Israeli isolation looks like (and Washington can’t do much)
Tony Karon in Time.com shows what happens when you brutally occupy another people for decades; the world gets sick of it: Israel’s fallout with long-time ally Turkey is no isolated spat that will be repaired any time soon; it’s a dramatic illustration that no amount of U.S. backing can prevent the growing international isolation resulting…

9/11 from the view of an Israeli (who doesn’t like to smear Arabs)
Amira Hass from Haaretz writes in the New Statesman with typical power on the 10th anniversary of 9/11: It was 4pm in Palestine and Israel when the Hollywood-style scene of the falling towers for ever invaded our imagery and vocabulary. I was at home, in Ramallah, and I have no recollection what I was writing…

Wonder why Americans are largely ignorant about the world?
Media diversity in the age of the internet offers even less excuses for the corporate press to ignore the depth and complexity of the world. And yet… Evidence one (via the Columbia Journalism Review): For the first time in history, mankind is developing a universal language: video. People now communicate with video on two billion…
