It’s clearly alright to harass Arab women

Hanin Zoabi, Palestinian member of the Knesset currently facing a hate campaign by mad Zionists, recalls the behaviour of Jewish parliamentarians after her detention near Gaza last week: During the first meeting, there was a hard aggression, and they called me “traitor” and “terrorist.” “Where are the knives? Where do you hide the knives?” You…

Splitting Palestine in two

As usual, Amira Hass in Haaretz hits the point in one swoop: The achievement of the failed flotilla to Gaza – mainly, it must be conceded, by its dead – is that the demand is being heard from everywhere that Israel halt its policy of siege. The government of Israel was not willing to listen…

Throwing money to Abbas won’t halt the dogs of war

Seriously, this is the “far-left” Barack Obama: U.S. President Barack Obama has updated America’s official vision of Israel’s future to stress that the Jewish state must ensure equal rights for Israeli Arabs. His new National Security Strategy, released by…

Self-criticism must start at home

An intriguing piece, by an Israeli reservist major, that at least acknowledges the direction his country is heading. Is it too much to ask more in the Zionist Diaspora to speak out and demand the Israeli government change path? This hardening of the heart is not limited to our leaders. They, after all, merely reflect…
