Many deluded fools believe that if only Israel improved its PR the world would embrace its racist policies and ignore the occupation. Actually, Israel is increasingly loathed because its contempt for Arabs is clear for all to see. Some British Jews this week are a little upset, poor dears: The editor of The Jewish Chronicle…

Every settlement is illegal, no matter what these crazy Jews say
How are illegal fanatical settlers described in this Zionist press? Following two weeks of Arab vandalism targeting the on-and-off Jewish presence at Shdema, the Jewish pioneers decided to step up their presence – and the army blocked them. MK Aryeh Eldad reacted sharply. The activists fear that though they have apparently succeeded in keeping at…
Jews will simply feel angry (but should we care?)
Following Desmond Tutu’s explanation while in Israel of the importance of the boycott movement against apartheid South Africa, Israeli peace activist Uri Avnery responds and opposes similar measures against his own country: The South African struggle was between a large majority and a small minority. Among a general population of almost 50 million, the Whites…

A telling Haaretz headline: How do settlers avenge removal of outpost? They build another one
Shouting and foaming at the mouth is a Zionist lobby special
The bullying by the Zionist lobby is legendary and largely unreported by the Western media. Large parts of my first book, My Israel Question, are dedicated to it. A number of Jewish groups recently loudly moaned when former Irish President and human rights activist Mary Robinson was awarded the US Presidential Medal of Freedom. She…
Let’s feel sorry for Zionist zealots
One day, the American media will be held accountable for its complete white-washing of Israelis crimes in Palestine. Today it’s the turn of Jerold S. Auerbach, a professor of history at Wellesley College and the author of “Hebron Jews: Memory and Conflict in the Land of Israel,” who writes in the Wall Street Journal about…
At what point does one take a stand on apartheid?
When film-maker Ken Loach recently called for the Melbourne International Film Festival to refuse Israeli government funding, the response was electric. Now, the director of the festival has fully responded (and I’m informed Loach has responded to this response by Richard Moore): To allow the personal politics of one filmmaker to proscribe a festival position…
Taking a moral cue from a real leader for the Middle East
South Africa’s Desmond Tutu has dedicated his life to fighting oppression, including in the Middle East. Currently in Isreal and Palestine with The Elders in an attempt to find a path to peace, he tells Haaretz that he has strong views on Israeli academic Neve Gordon’s call for a boycott against Israel: “I always say…
We are all self-hating Jews
Benjamin Netanyahu allegedly called two of Barack Obama’s senior advisers, Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod, “self-hating” Jews because he didn’t like their leader pressuring his country. The poor dear. The New Republic’s Leon Wieseltier, a life-long dedicated Zionist, has something to say about that: If Emanuel is a self-hating Jew because he believes that Israeli…
They should be throwing the settlers in prison
Israeli peace activist Ezra Nawi, currently facing the prospect of jail time for allegedly attacking an Israeli officer, was defended in a Jerusalem court last week by the country’s former deputy attorney general: She said the Palestinians’ life in the southern Hebron Hills “is surreal – they have no water, no power supply, they are…
