Part of the problem is that most liberal writers, bloggers and pundits – especially the non-Jewish ones – are petrified of getting anywhere near the word “Israel.”

Who Hates Our Freedoms? Part I [Satire]

by Mantiq al-Tayr December 12, 2011

A little birdie told me to start with the US Senate.

The US military could become the only nuclear police force on earth. Who on earth would come up with an idea as anti-American as that? Israel.

Is Israel guilty of the crime of apartheid?

by Richard Falk December 6, 2011

The recent finding of the Russell Tribunal on Palestine (RToP) that the state of Israel is guilty of the crime of apartheid in relation to the Palestine people should be taken with the utmost seriousness by all those who affirm human solidarity and care about making visible the long ordeal of a suffering and vulnerable people.
