It’s happening again. Talk of the possibility of a third Intifada is on the rise as increased Palestinian protests are recurring in the West Bank. Many are on edge waiting for the spark. What will it be?

Stephen Lendman: Fascism Wins Big in Israel
Israelis have themselves to blame. They elected Israel’s most extremist government in history. Militarism, belligerence, state-sponsored terrorism, occupation ruthlessness, settlement expansions, and neoliberal harshness reflect official policy.
Peace is a non-starter. A so-called process never existed and doesn’t now. Israel won’t tolerate it. Netanyahu scorns it. He calls it a waste of time.
Clive Hambidge: The Twinning – Palestinian Children in Israeli Military Detention
Children are the future of all their respective nations. And Palestinian children are equally so. The children of Palestine have every right to become “arbiters of change” rather than be subjected to Israel’s military courts a situation which is permitted to go on and further exacerbated by the deafening silence of Western complicity, particularly Britain, Zionist shackled America, and the EU.
The Palestinian ID Cards War
The system of ID cards is used as a weapon to further cement the fragmentation of the Palestinian population as it confines the Palestinians to their geographic Israeli-controlled Bantustans, forbidding Palestinians with Gaza IDs entry into the West Bank and Jerusalem and vice versa.
Stephen Lendman: Hardening Israeli Fascism
Moshe Feiglin advocates bribing Arabs to leave the country. Yuli Edelstein, Zeev Elkin and Yariv Levin are promising annexation of the West Bank. Naftali Bennett is promising to ‘deal with’ the media and the Supreme Court. air Shamir is promising that no new state will be established ‘for a million people.’
Stephen Lendman: Netanyahu Threat New War On Gaza
Netanyahu threat, “we destroyed almost all of their long-range rockets. But I’m telling you that the IDF is preparing to strike a still-heavier blow. Our account with Hamas is not closed.”
Wiping Countries off the Map? Iran or the United States?
Several targeted countries in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, are categorized as “failed states”. The central question is: who is failing the failed states? Who is “Taking them Out”?
It is part of a covert United States military and intelligence agenda. Destroying countries is part of a US Imperial project, a process of global domination.
Obama’s Crocodile Tears
I would like to see your tears, Obama, also for another citizen of your country, a kid named Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, who was killed by your illegitimate orders. Until then, you and your government are outliers. Blessed be the victims, may God have mercy on their souls.
Gaza to Galilee: The colonial context
The shocking reality is that many of the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip are a few miles away from the land of their ethnically cleansed former villages, across the border fence in southern Israel. Like so much else with Palestine, you can’t understand Gaza if you don’t understand the Nakba.
Stephen Lendman: Israel’s Lieberman Resigns
Lieberman and Netanyahu represent the worst of extremist governance. They’re hardcore racists. They’re ideologically anti-democratic. They believe Israel has a divine right to persecute, torture, commit naked aggression, and dominate the region unchallenged.
Stuart Littlewood: Why they call him ‘Agent’ Cameron
Agent Cameron is very careful not to let the words ‘justice’ and ‘law’ pass his lips in connection with Israel’s illegal occupation of the Holy Land.
William A. Cook: From the City of Destruction to the Promised Land
The path to the Promised lands is the path that avoids wanton destruction of the kind the United States and Israel have wrought in the mid-east, where cooperation, compassion and concern for all is the peace all deserve.
Justice and Peace as Defined by the Jewish State
No longer can it run to the US veto to maintain impunity in crime, no longer must the people of Palestine be ignored, no longer can this world body live with the lies, the distortions, the deceit used by the Jewish nation to control all the peoples of the earth.
Israel’s War on Palestinian Children
Why did the IDF kill and injure so many Palestinian Children during this bombing run? Seventy-five percent of the population of Gaza is under 25. This means that if the IDF attacks civilians, it is more likely to kill or maim children than adults.
Stevie Wonder to sing for Friends of The IDF [Updated]
Stevie Wonder has announced that he will perform at at the annual Gala for Friends of the IDF (FIDF). Maybe he does not know. Maybe the people around him are blind. Maybe he lost his soul.
Andrew Levine: Netanyahu Gives Obama His Comeuppance
Were Obama to withdraw or credibly threaten to withdraw just a fraction of the support the United States provides, Israel would have no choice but to comply. But, of course, he will not. American political class enables Israel’s depredations. It is an in-grained habit.
Gaza: When Propaganda Masquarades as News
Major news outlets almost systematically relied on Israeli government, military, and intelligence sources to shape its coverage, victimising Israel while dehumanise atrocities of Gaza.
Israel’s ‘right to self-defense’ – a tremendous propaganda victory
By supporting Israel’s offensive on Gaza, Western leaders have given the Israelis carte blanche to do what they’re best at: Wallow in their sense of victimhood and ignore Palestinian suffering.
Why Gaza must suffer again
The four main culprits who should be held responsible for the deaths of Palestinians and Israelis in the days and, if Israel expands its operation, weeks ahead.
Stop pretending the US is an uninvolved, helpless party in the Israeli assault on Gaza
Assault on Gaza is possible only because of direct, affirmative, unstinting US diplomatic, financial and military support for Israel and everything it does.
Bishop Corder: Israel’s “Pillar of Cloud” Blasphemy
Israel have mocked the message of God’s prophet and turned it into a murderous blasphemy. The Pillar of Cloud represents life to the Palestinian people.
Media Cover for Israeli Crimes in Gaza
Blame Gaza victims always. Israeli aggression is called self-defense. Legitimate defense is called terrorism. Media scoundrels support Israel in lockstep.
Antimissiles Deployed in Tel Aviv
It sounds as if Israel constructed a new battery in Tel Aviv overnight and deployed it in the morning. Reality is different; the IDF is hiding a weakness.
Targeting Gaza Civilians: Israel’s Specialty
“Brave” Israeli airmen, soldiers, sailors, and other security force personnel are cowards. They’ve acted lawlessly for decades. Look at Gaza!
Gaza: Part of a Broader US-NATO-Israel Military Agenda
Is the attack on Gaza a trigger mechanism which could lead to Middle East war? The invasion of Gaza is part of the broader US-NATO-Israel military agenda.
Israel Shells Syria and Gaza
It’s elections time! What better campaign can Netanyahu have more than Palestinian blood on his hands? He’s preparing public opinion perhaps for Cast Lead 2.
Netanyahu’s Nightmare
“The night Netanyahu won’t forget” and “the astonishment that seized Netanyahu and his advisers this week was absolute” were typical comments. “Spitting on America’s Face,” was the harsher comment of former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who after being acquitted by the court, is becoming increasingly active against Netanyahu.
Israel’s Endless Savage
Israel litany of savage behaviour, from the ethnic cleansing started in 1948 to the starvation war waged on Gaza and numerous acts of wanton, petty cruelty.
Israel Encourages Settler Violence
Israeli setter violence is out-of-control. They have license to attack Palestinian civilians, destroy their property and crops, and at times kill.
Noam Chomsky: Israel is a pretty crazy state. The U.S. is just a rogue state
An Interview With Noam Chomsky: Everybody is already furious at Israel. Even in Europe, it is regarded as the most dangerous state in the world, and it is becoming a pariah state. People in the U.S. should be breaking through the media and general doctrinal barriers to come to know what is going on.
Israeli filmmaker: “But we gave back Lebanon”
To say “we gave back Lebanon” necessitates the presumption of custodial possession. You can’t “give back” something you don’t hold claim to. Therein lies the rub. Zionism, a political ideology, presumes this entitlement.
Two water pipes for two peoples: Palestinians and Israelis
In a new series, Haaretz explores the inequitable distribution of drinking water in the West Bank, where supply for the Palestinian falls far short of that of their settler neighbors as well as the standard set out by the WHO.
Israeli War against Palestinian Children
Israel had developed a very oppressive anti-Palestinian children policies, that are aimed at intimidating, terrorizing and traumatizing Palestinian children, whose families dared to stay in the country. These policies aim primarily at driving Palestinian families out of the country for the sake of their children’s future, and secondary to traumatize and terrorize Palestinian children while very young so that they would not dare grow up into revolting young men.
Obama v. Netanyahu
America’s special relationship with Israel more myth than reality. It’s been “propagated by politicians to mask the suspicion – and plentiful examples of duplicity and betrayal – that have marked the relationship since Israel’s founding.
Israel and the Celebration of the Anniversary of Genocide in Gaza
It seems Israel is developing a delicate sense for the celebration of genocide. “Bibi, it’s the three year anniversary of our murder of 1.200 Palestinian women and children, lets celebrate.”
