Netanyahu Wins, Palestinians Lose

To this day, Israel has not defined its borders. Ever.

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - Despite three pending corruption charges, Benjamin Netanyahu won a fifth term as Israel’s prime minister.

During the campaign, he said he would annex Jewish settlements in the West Bank — land captured in 1967. This would firm up Israel's hold on them and will probably preclude any Palestinian state. Presently, there are more than 2.5 million Palestinians in the West Bank and severely blockades 2 million more in Gaza.

Impostor Lures Activist to Israeli Police Sting

An interview with Frank Romano conducted by renowned documentary film director Guy Davidi.

(SALEM, Ore.) - Romano, eager to publicize the struggle for survival of Khan al Ahmar, agreed to a meeting. Unfortunately, the people he trusted were actually Israeli agents.

It was a trap!

As soon as the interview had begun, standing in front of the village of “Al Khan al Ahmar” with the impostor journalist, 4-5 Israeli police cars drove up and arrested Romano

Q: Why is Corbyn so Important?

Exposing the political crisis that is splitting America apart

(LONDON) - A: For the same reasons that President Trump has been a significant political development.

These two post-political characters bring to the surface what has been suppressed for decades: we are subject to foreign occupation. We the people, are reduced to mere consumers and our so-called ‘elected politicians’ are a bunch of detached, compromised actors.

Rep. Omar`s Comments and the House Failure to Debate U.S.-Israeli Relations

Why does Israel "need" so much U.S. support?

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) recently suggested that House supporters of Israel have dual allegiances. Her comments caused a furor. Whether her comments were anti-semitic is debatable. Ideally, this uproar was an excellent opportunity for a long overdue debate on our one-sided U.S foreign policy toward Israel. Instead, the House passed a resolution condemning anti-Semitism and other bigotry.

I fear this resolution will result in a chilling effect on legitimate speech activity. All criticism of Israel is not anti-Semitic.

Jim Crow Jumps Into The Game

History in blackface slaps the present moment awake.

(PORTLAND, Ore. / PeaceVoice) - What? The governor put that picture on his yearbook page? In 1984? The wave of outrage, the demand for his resignation — from Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s own party, the Democrats — can’t be dismissed with a shrug and an apology.

His career may be over, thanks not simply to an act of youthful stupidity but to the context that made it possible: good old American racism.

The Gaza War, Congress and International Humanitarian Law

This month marks the tenth anniversary of a devastating three-week Israeli military campaign on the Gaza Strip.

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - This article of mine from 2010 details how large bipartisan majorities in Congress went on record unconditionally defending the Israeli assault that killed hundreds of civilians.

They blamed the death and destruction exclusively on the Palestinians, attacked the credibility of prominent international jurists and other human rights investigators who documented war crimes by both sides, and made a series of demonstrably false statements in order to defend the slaughter.

Being Ordinary

Jewishness is a sophisticated survival strategy, a strict regulatory system of adherence.

(LONDON) - The Jewish press in Britain and around the world has seemed thrilled for the last few days.

“One of Britain’s most vocal anti-Semites” [apparently me] “was handed a humiliating court defeat in London on Monday” wrote The Jewish Algemeiner. On Twitter, Israel’s firsters wrote about me ‘grovelling’ at court.

The Unknown Transformation of Malcolm X - Palestine: Seeking The Enemy Within

A Response to Separation of Struggles Against Oppression on Tribal and National Boundaries

(Project Humanbeingsfirst.org) - Malcolm X's early views on separation from his oppressor's race are well known among those who study him, and poorly understood by others who have merely heard of them in relation to Reverend Martin Luther King's penchant for integration with the White Man.

The views expressed in the article 'Jewish Voice for Peace? Really??' by Nahida the Exiled Palestinian, echo a poignantly similar theme to the motivations for separation espoused by Malcolm X before his transformative pilgrimage to Mecca.

Al Quds Toronto Committee Rejects Accusations Made By Pro-Apartheid Lobby Group

Lobby group B’nai Brith Canada level unfounded accusations against rally organizers

(TORONTO) - B’nai Brith Canada has issued false and inflammatory accusations against the rally’s organizers and participants. Ontario’s Premier-elect, Doug Ford, has faithfully repeated those falsehoods, apparently without conducting any investigation into their truth or falsehood.

On June 7, 2018, the organizers of the rally issued a statement of principles which reiterated our opposition to all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism, and our commitment to the peaceful resolution of conflicts.

Truth, Truthfulness and Palestine

Talk delivered at Deep Truth-Countering Deep State Lies (online conference)

(LONDON) - A healthy society doesn’t need a ‘truth movement.’ But we Americans, Brits, French and Germans are far from healthy and our so-called ‘truth movements’ haven’t led us towards any sources of light. The question is: Why?

One possible answer is that ‘truth movements’ are ideal environments for the operators of controlled opposition...
