Here’s a gem from one Albert Landa, delivered on the Sabbath, no less: I just caught your interview with the ubiquitous Geraldine Doogue(spelling?) and I have heard quite a lot about you and the question which came to my mind, in a nutshell, is this: ‘WHAT DO YOU WANT?!” What is it that you want…

Another day, another Israeli assassination
The Real News provides a revealing interview with the wife of a Palestinian man murdered by Israeli forces in the town of Nablus:
Keeping the Hebron nightmare on the front page
This is a call to action for everyone who stands in solidarity with Palestinians fighting for their human rights. On February 25, 2010 activists around the world will participate in an international day of action to raise awareness about the lack of freedom of movement in the Palestinian city of Hebron.

Israel threatened West Bank as a “second Gaza”
Palestinian civil society is not just calling on Israel to account for its crimes (remember this next time one reads that Palestinians are only obsessed with holding Israel responsible for human rights violations) Eleven Palestinian human rights organizations have called on the Palestinian Authority and the Hamas government in Gaza to endorse the Goldstone report…
Will Israel soon become a tipping point in American life?
The American mainstream is starting to awaken to Israeli madness. Andrew Sullivan, one of the country’s biggest bloggers, has been increasingly vocal in questioning the role of the Jewish state.

Two months later, despite no indication that Israel’s occupation will ever end, developments continue: Work crews have broken ground on what they hope will be the first modern, planned Palestinian city – a step…
New York Times continues to shield Americans from Mid-east truth
How much longer must we suffer through this nonsense? Here’s David Brooks in the New York Times, writing about the wonderful technology in Israel and its inspiration to the world. With growing amount of information getting out that shows Israel is an oppressive nation, Zionist propagandists, especially in the US, need to ramp up the…
Jews, don’t be afraid of questioning Israel
What are the boundaries for acceptable debate over Israel according to Zionists? Usually, we’re told that criticism is acceptable…but then any discussion over Israeli crimes is deemed inappropriate. So, this blog post by James Besser, Washington correspondent for NY Jewish Week, is interesting (via Muzzlewatch). He highlights a recent Haaretz editorial that challenges Israel’s policy…
