by Stephen Lendman August 19, 2011

Israeli thugs – organized criminals

by Paul J. Balles July 17, 2011

Paul J. Balles compares Israel to a thug who knows he has protection and asks: “How long can Israel’s thugs keep getting away with the travesty of justice that’s no better than organized crime in America?”

Reasonable Conjecture on Israel’s Changing Demographics

by Lawrence Davidson June 15, 2011

If the historical goal of the state of Israel is to provide the world’s Jews a secure national home, a place of refugee in a world of real or potential anti-Semitism, it seems to have failed. It has failed not because this writer says so, but because an increasing number of its own Jewish citizens say so.

Netanyahu’s War on Gaza

by Stephen Lendman June 1, 2011

The Israeli propaganda machine has reached new highs distributing false information. It embarrassed itself by entering a futile public relations battle….There is nothing to explain, certainly not to a world that will never buy its web of explanations, lies and tactics.

Who is Embarrassing the United Nations?

by Lawrence Davidson March 26, 2011

Israeli officials found Falk’s statement highly insulting. Soon after the Rapporteur made his presentation to the Human Rights Council, Israel’s envoy to the UN mission in Geneva, Aharon LeshnoYaar, labeled Falk an “embarrassment to the United Nations.”

Obama, The Veto and Impeachment

by Alan Hart February 20, 2011

Never before has an American President’s fear of offending the Zionist lobby and its stooges in Congress been so exposed as it was by Obama’s decision to veto the Security Council resolution condemning continued, illegal Israeli settlement activities on the occupied West Bank and demanding that Israel “immediately and completely cease” all such activities. In a different America – an informed America – some might think, I do, that Obama should be impeached. The charge? TREASON.

Rabbis’ edict bars renting to Arabs

by Jonathan Cook November 14, 2010

In the past few weeks, Safed – one of Judaism’s four holy cities – has been making headlines of a very different kind as “the most racist city in Israel”. The unflattering, and hotly contested, epithet follows an edict from Safed’s senior rabbis ordering residents not to sell or rent homes to “non-Jews” – a reference to the country’s Palestinian Arab citizens, who comprise a fifth of Israel’s population.

Israel is Relieved Not to be The Only War Criminal

by SR Editor October 27, 2010

According to the logic of Israeli propagandists, some of whom are disguised as journalists, Israel should now proudly look at the rest of the world: They killed more people there. Yes, war is cruel, the world is full of crimes and injustice, but not one of them exonerates Israel, even if Israel’s sins seem pure as snow compared to those of the great United States. Now is the time to sharply censure America, not to forgive Israel.

Palestinian Authority Traitors Serving Israel

by Stephen Lendman October 20, 2010

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ duplicitous treachery exposes him as an enemy, not ally, of his people. An earlier article on him quoted Jeffrey Blankfort calling him a “double agent (serving) his Israeli and US masters in plain sight.” In June 2003, Edward Said called him “Israel’s sheriff,” saying he’s “colorless, moderately corrupt, and without any clear ideas of his own, except that he wants to please the white man,” his Washington and bosses.

A question for the British foreign secretary

by Stuart Littlewood October 18, 2010

The unbroken thread of Conservative Party support for Israel that has run for nearly a century from the Balfour Declaration to the present day will continue. Although it will no doubt often be tested in the years ahead, it will remain constant, unbroken and undiminished by the passage of time. Mr Foreign Secretary, your enthusiasm for Israel and its Zionist project is no longer shared by a British public that’s now better informed and not so easily duped.

Israel’s New Loyalty Oath

by Stephen Lendman October 12, 2010

Israel’s direction mirror’s 1930s Germany, especially under a Netanyahu/Lieberman/Shas coalition and most extremist ever Knesset, flouting democratic freedoms one law or edict at a time. Lieberman and other extremists called the new measure a first step to loyalty legislation they want enacted as well as other anti-democratic laws to be considered in the Knesset’s winter session. A forthcoming article addresses them.

Nothing Has Changed Since the Yom Kippur War

by SR Editor October 8, 2010

Nothing has changed in 37 years. It’s the same arrogant hubris, the same obstinate resistance to any prospect of an agreement, the same failure to recognize that only peace will save us from another defense minister who sinks into an existential depression while warning of an impending holocaust. What’s the point of this festival of 1973 war documents and this retroactive dance of death? Why look back, if on the day the settlement building freeze ended the settlers did a remarkably accurate imitation of the dance of arrogance that preceded the 1973 war?

By Stephen Lendman* | Sabbah Report | www.sabbah.biz Dealing with Washington and Israel is like swimming with sharks. Get out of the water or be eaten. Achieving an equitable Israeli/Palestinian peace settlement is no more likely now than ever. Both sides know it but pretend otherwise, suggesting perhaps a finessed or arranged resolution – a [...]

Paul J. Balles – A superpower and “the world’s sickest warrior state”

by Paul J. Balles March 8, 2010

By Paul J. Balles* | Sabbah Report | www.sabbah.biz Living through five or six major wars has hardened me to what I thought were the extremes of inhuman cruelty and brutality. Two things made those extremes almost bearable: the brutality always revealed – at least according to the media coverage – the viciousness of the [...]
