Thanks to the Zionist ‘Anti-Defamation League‘ (ADL), the ‘Free Gaza Movement‘ is getting a free publicity by the coverage here.
I already covered the story of Free Gaza few months ago, but the more, the better.

The Gaza Strip and West Bank, including East Jerusalem, are Israeli occupied lands that have brought despair to all involved. The most recent chapter in this historic saga was the overrunning of Gaza by Hamas militants. As the world contemplates how to deal with this latest [...]
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?? (The EU doesn’t matter anyway, it is a [...]
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 [...]
Seizing the moment, now it can attack, demolish houses, use human shields, let people die at crossings or probably even starve to death, kill innocent civilians, assassinate, whatever, probably plunder if there should be anything to plunder - and owe no one anything….- most things it actually already does, but not it’s LEGAL! - so [...]
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 solution [...]
Here is a new sample of the “peace loving Israeli occupation“.
The following video testimonies produced and published by B’tselem (The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories) shows a sample of Palestinian daily misery life under the Israeli occupation:

In February 2002, Maysun al-Hayek and her husband were on [...]
One of the leaders of the Palestinian people has been incarcerated for approximately five years now in Israel. The time has come to release him. For years, Marwan Barghouti has tried to persuade Israelis to end the occupation through negotiation.

While brothers were killing each other, and President Abbas is packing his bags to go for a tan at Sharm El Sheikh resort along with his new old “buddy” Olmert, the Israeli occupation continued it’s terrorist crimes against Palestinian lives and land.
Here is a summery of last week report of Israeli human [...]
Destroying and stealing Palestinians lands, crops and trees is nothing new to Israel occupation and the Jewish colonizers in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
When I read today that settlers uprooted 300 Palestinian olive trees and replanted them in their outpost (Palestinian stolen land) I was not surprised (story below), but reminded me of the following [...]

All U.S. citizens must accept a measure of responsibility for Israel’s grip on America. Those of us who knew what was happening did not protest with sufficient force and clarity.
In the greatest service of his long public life, former President Jimmy Carter warns of the grave consequences of America’s phenomenal subservience to Israel. [...]

There is, no doubt, a whole lot of celebrating going on today. For those more afraid of negotiations than of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, or any of that violent crew, a collapsing Palestinian Authority with Gaza in absolute chaos and with Mahmoud Abbas weakened almost to irrelevancy is a dream [...]
With all due respect to Gila Svirksy, the world would be absolutely right to boycott ALL Israeli products, not only those made in the settlements. A country that doles out cruel and unjust collective punishment day in and day out deserves to be treated in kind. Unfortunately, not buying Israeli wines or sofas will [...]

1967 - The war that ended Judaism
By Bradley Burston
…If absolute occupation corrupts absolutely, no group would be more corrupted by Israel’s presence in the territories than rightist rabbis.
With Messianic zeal, they set to dictating new commandments and enunciating new prohibitions, revolutionizing Judaism by casting the settlements as the building blocks of a Third Temple [...]
The African National Congress (ANC) in Parliament yesterday used the 40th anniversary of the Six-Day War to launch a blistering attack on the Israeli government, resulting in bitter exchanges with the Democratic Alliance (DA) across the floor of the National Assembly.
Intelligence Minister Ronnie Kasrils, himself Jewish, led the attack with a strident summary of the [...]
