When we protest and demonstrate Palestinians feel they are not alone

Fernando Guevara writes” Words fail as we see the unimaginable horrors that we wish we had not seen. As we hear of the unthinkable, which we wish that nobody had ever had to experience. These necropolitics must not be permitted to continue. Necropolitics are, in short, the use of political, military, financial or social power in furtherance of the idea that some people have a right to live and others must either be killed or deprived of the quality of their lives, in service of a dominating group. All settler colonial projects involve some degree of necropolitics, and Zionism/Israel consists of these politics to the point that Israel aims for Palestine, Palestinians, their history and their memory – down to their individual names – to be obliterated completely. You can see ...

Naziyahu, the magician’s apprentice

Binyamin Netanyahu, the magician’s apprentice By Uri Avnery One has to choose: Binyamin Netanyahu is either incredibly shrewd or incredibly foolish. Take his Iran policy. Actually, there is little to choose from. Netanyahu has no other policy to speak of. According to him, Iran constitutes a mortal danger to Israel. If it obtains a nuclear weapon, God forbid, it will use it to annihilate Israel. It must be stopped by any means, preferably by American armed intervention. This may be quite wrong (as I believe). But it makes sense. So what did Netanyahu do? Crying wolf – ad nauseum For years, he alarmed the world. Every day the cry went out: Save Israel! Prevent the destruction of the Jewish state! Prevent a second holocaust! Prevent Iran from producing ...

From Barak to Trump: Arrogance, ignorance and phony “peace” plans

10th December 2017 American stooges, Home, Israel, Highlights By Uri Avnery Ehud Barak has “broken the silence”. He has published an article in The New York Times attacking Binyamin Netanyahu, our prime minister, in the most abrasive terms. In other words, he has done exactly the same as the group of ex-soldiers who call themselves Breaking the Silence, who are accused of washing our dirty linen abroad. They expose war crimes to which they have been witnesses, or even participants. But apart from the attack on Netanyahu, Barak has used the article to publish his “peace plan”. A former chief-of-staff of the Israeli army and a former prime minister, Barak is obviously planning a comeback, and his peace plan is part of the effort. Th...

A Zionist worldview and the Nazi slaughter in Gaza

A Zionist worldview and the slaughter in Gaza By Lawrence Davidson Soon after my analysis “In defence of Richard Falk” was published by Media with a Conscience (MWC), the site editor forwarded to me an unusual chastising response. It was unusual because it came from a relatively well-known scholar and writer by the name of Fred Skolnik. Introducing Fred Skolnik Skolnik is the editor-in-chief of a 22-volume Encyclopedia Judaica (second edition), a work that won the Dartmouth Medal in 2007. He is also the author of numerous works of fiction, all concerning life in Israel. It is not rare for Zionists to take me to task, and Skolnik is most certainly a Zionist. Yet it is rare that those who chastise are of Skolnik’s stature. And so, a reply is...

Gaza: we have no time to be sidetracked from the issue of genocide

Fernando Guevara writes: We need to address relevant issues in relevant terms. There is no time to back-pedal around Zionist rhetoric; no time for further dehumanisation of Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims or anyone. In the Palestinian context, we have to stop viewing only Jews and Israelis as human, while portraying Muslims and Arabs in zoological terms. Our joint militarised media does this. Also, coverage usually omits the fact that Christians are just as targeted in Palestine as are Muslims. Media routinely us simplistic, often cartoonish, terms that pitch Muslims against Jews, Palestinians against Israelis. But we can all respond by saying: ”We’ve had enough.” We can learn a lot from the Palestinians – Jews, Christians and Muslims. They got along well before the Zionist...

The Gaza War is Lost: But Will Naziyahu Concede?

BY RAMZY BAROUD Image by Timon Studler. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had often boasted about the readiness of his army to deal with, and to eliminate all threats to Israel’s ‘security’. The Israeli military, too, has contributed to the Israeli hasbara that Tel Aviv would be able to face several threats at all fronts, from Gaza, to the West Bank, to Lebanon, and Syria. But the Hamas attack at numerous Israeli targets on Saturday, October 5, at precisely 6:00 am Palestine time, proved him utterly and humiliatingly wrong. Neither Netanyahu, nor his army were in fact able to face a single Palestinian group, operating alone, and under siege. It will take time for all of this to sink in among Israeli leaders, military brass, media, and society. For now, howe...

Gaza Seized the Initiative: Might vs Willpower

BY JAMAL KANJ Image by Luke White. I write as we watch the news of Palestinian fighters from the besieged and starved Gaza strip having seized the initiatives from the Israeli daily incursions on Palestinian camps, and towns murdering civilians. Israeli murders this year have reached more than 250 Palestinians, including 47 children. This is in addition to the desecration of Muslim and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem and other occupied Palestinian communities. Gaza has endured a harsh economic blockade for more than 18 years. Palestinians are lynched at the hand of the illegal ultra-Jewish colonizers in cities like Hawara and Hebron. The burning of Palestinian cars, homes, and business, under the official protection of the Israeli occupying army and direct support from...

Indecency’s Conspiracy of Silence: Hamas, Nazi and the Use of Force

Indecency’s Conspiracy of Silence: Hamas, Israel and the Use of Force BY BINOY KAMPMARK Palestinians take control of an Israeli tank after crossing the boundary fence with Israel from the southern Khan Younis area of the Gaza Strip on 7 October. Shock and horror. But to and for whom? At 6.30 am on October 7, the State of Israel was certainly in shock. From the south, its citizens faced attacks by, as news reports put it, air, sea and land executed by the Islamic militant group Hamas. Within a matter of hours, the death toll of Israelis had jumped by hundreds, complemented by hundreds of deaths in Gaza. Along the way, unspecified numbers of Israeli hostages have been taken and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a declaration of war. In the short ...

Closing Guantanamo?

BY KAREN J. GREENBERG Photograph Source: Joshua Sherurcij For 18 years, I’ve been writing articles on the never-ending story of the Guantánamo Bay Detention Facility. And here’s my ultimate takeaway (for the moment): 21 years after that grim offshore prison of injustice was set up in Cuba in response to the 9/11 attacks and the capture of figures supposedly linked to them, and despite the expressed desire of three presidents — George W. Bush, Barack Obamaand Joe Biden — to close it, the endgame remains devastatingly elusive. At times due to a failure of will, at times due to a failure of the system itself or the sheer complexity of the logistics involved, and at times due to acts of Congress or the courts, efforts to shut that prison have be...

A Wake-Up Call on Poverty

BY SHAILLY GUPTA BARNES Photograph Source: sylvar – CC BY 2.0 This fall, the Census Bureau released new poverty data showing a stunning reversal in economic security over the course of last year. The findings included a record jump in the Supplemental Poverty Measure just one year after hitting a record low. Child poverty doubled. Some 12.4 percent of Americans were poor last year, according to that measure. But when you crunch the numbers fully, the number of poor and low-income people in this country rose to more than 135 million. That’s over 40 percent of the nation’s population. If this sounds like a bigger number than we usually hear about, that’s because it is. The 135 million figure includes everyone living below the p...
