Trouble in paradise: Britain has expelled Mossad’s most senior official in London after concluding there was compelling evidence that UK passports used by a hit squad in Dubai were cloned by Israel. The Independent has learnt that the documents were cloned at Ben Gurion airport, and officials then made follow-up calls to check surreptitiously that…

How the Zionist lobby should be treated (with noise)
Go girls: WASHINGTON – March 23 – Shortly after announcing Israel’s commitment to defense in his address to the annual American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) Gala, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was disrupted by a demonstrator.… Rae Abileah, 27, from Half Moon Bay, CA, jumped onto AIPAC Executive Director Howard Kohr’s private table alongside…
This is how Israel shows its love for Washington
Last year I wrote about the proposed illegal settlements in East Jerusalem, funded by wealthy Jewish businessman Irving Moskowitz. Now, the reality: The Jerusalem municipality’s representative on the Jerusalem District Planning and Construction Committee, Yair Gabai, said Wednesday that all committee deliberations over expansion of construction have been frozen following the recent tensions between Israel…
Illegal, Jewish colonies cost more than $17 billion
The sheer insanity of a project deemed illegal by the vast majority of the world. No wonder the Jews don’t want to leave: Israeli settlements in the West Bank encompass 12 million square meters of roads, homes and factories that cost more than $17 billion to build, according to a study by the Macro Center…
Watching Jews walk off a cliff with their eyes open
Bernard Avishai asks some questions that too few Jews in the public sphere are considering: I confess feeling a twinge of pathos when I heard on Reshet Bet radio this morning how Benjamin Netanyahu told his AIPAC audience in Washington that the Jewish people were building Jerusalem 3000 years ago, would continue doing so today,…
Britain hasn’t forgotten the Mossad Dubai hit (and yes, an election is coming)
At least one country seems to be at least giving the impression that illegally using its passports in murder is unacceptable: Britain is to expel an Israeli diplomat over the use of forged UK passports by the killers of a senior Hamas official in January. The foreign secretary, David Miliband, will make a statement to…
AIPAC is a nice show but the chaos continues in the Holy Land
So, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells the Zionist lobby AIPAC faithful that (illegal) settlements in East Jerusalem are staying and expanding: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told AIPAC activists that “Jerusalem is not a settlement,” and also depicted the Palestinian Authority as not taking steps for peace. During the comments on… Jerusalem, the 8,000 American…
60 Minutes tackles Gaza and shows its brutal side
Australia’s 60 Minutes program is a tabloid current affairs program that seems to take an unusual interest in the Middle East conflict (here’s a good story from last year about the West Bank occupation in Palestine.) Last Sunday they featured a piece about the economic and political isolation of Gaza. It didn’t pull any punches…
Israel as a spoilt child
Udi Aloni in Haaretz: The majority of Jewish Israelis are complicit in the perpetuation of the current state of affairs. When growing groups of conscientious people refuse to play the game of building a fictitious democratic sand castle on the shores of the Mediterranean, the Israeli Jew behaves like a spoiled rich brat, who would…
As if the Zionist lobby would ever call for less colonies
Hehe: A bogus news release that claimed the American Israel Public Affairs Committee had called on Israel “to immediately freeze new settlement projects” led to a incorrect report on NPR’s newscast this morning. AIPAC has not issued any such statement, spokesman Josh Block tells us, and condemns whoever is responsible for spreading the misinformation. The…
