Democratic Defectors and the Israel Lobby
“Curiously, all of the traitor democrats were huge career recipients of funds from the Israeli lobby. If we took ten Democratic apostates and compared them to ten Democrats who stood by the voters, pro-Israeli PAC contributions were “ten times” greater for the turncoats than those who stayed with their constituencies ($322,000 versus $34,000 on average).” [...]
USA to Increase Selling DEATH!
Finally, Olmert confirmed what I have mentioned over a months ago about the increase of military AID to racist Israel. But the smell of death does not stop there.

Violinist Nigel Kennedy in Israel on the wall
Punk rebel with a classical cause Via: Haaretz “…And today, I was really shocked when I saw the wall here. It’s a new type of apartheid, barbaric behavior.

Israel “opposes” any role for countries who aid PA
that’s Abbas… yes, indeed… When is the world going to stop taking this crap and tell Israel and its atom and cluster bombs, its racism and apartheid laws, its occupation and oppression of the Palestinian people and its corrupt politicians and its “demands” – to go to hell??

Even Israeli editorial admits what US media is deaf/blind to
A racist Jewish state By Haaretz Editorial Every day the Knesset has the option of passing laws that will advance Israel as a democratic Jewish state or turn it into a racist Jewish state.

On Israel, Zionism, the Memory of the Shoah, and the use of the word “Jew”
French philosopher Alain Badiou gave this interview to Le Monde last week. The original title was about the crisis of the intellectual Left.

Jewish only schools, roads, marriages, and of course, Jewish only land
Even if that land happens to be owned by Palestinians… Israel has over a million non Jewish (Palestinian/Arab) citizens, and while it pretends to be a “democracy” – and as politicians and media the world over parrot the phrase “the only democracy in the Middle East” as if saying it made it so, and as [...]
The Invincible Fatah al-Islam in Nahr al-Bared

We made $500 bucks before she hung herself
Young American soldiers proud of raping, proud of torturing… laughing about it all … An American soldier boasts of having tortured Iraqis and making a 15 years old Iraqi girl commit suicide after she had been raped. Watch it before the ‘big brother’ decides to remove it!!

The Israelis, thus the world, loved Salam Fayyad long before he became Fatah PM
And he was certainly the WEST’S choice for new Palestinian Prime Minister. (They already wanted him in that role in 2002… we are supposed to believe he is Abbas’s choice. His “third party” in the last elections won 2 seats in Parliament) This is from an Haaretz article in April, BEFORE Hamas took Gaza and [...]
Israel and Peace “Talk”
Well, talk is one thing, action another. 92 of 164 settlements expanded or redrawn… “A short drive along West Bank roads demonstrates that talk is one thing, action another; while the government talks about “a political horizon,” in the form of two states, Israel’s actions on the ground and its scandalous failings are pushing this [...]

Via Haaretz: …”Britain talked directly with Hamas leader Khaled Meshal and Syria to facilitate Johnston’s release, violating the global boycott of the movement…” “How can Israel and Abbas continue to ignore the only force capable of managing the Gaza Strip?….And no less important: Is there still any point in boycotting Hamas or the Israel Defense [...]
