The question is to vote or not to vote for 1948 Palestinians

NOVANEWS RSS FOLLOW EMAIL PRINT SHARE Majeda El-Batsh| Agence France Presse ACRE, Occupied Palestine: In the days ahead of Israel’s April 9 elections, activists in the country’s north were not trying to convince some residents who to vote for but just to vote. Israel’s 1948 Palestinian citizens, who account for some 17.5 percent of the population, have been engaged in a debate over whether to boycott the upcoming elections.In 2015, Arab parties ran under one alliance and finished with a historic tally: they won 13 seats out of 120 Parliament, making them the third-largest force. But this year the Arab population is facing their own divisions in addition to hostility from Israel’s right-wing and questions over whether participating in the elections in the past ha...

Supporting BDS is a way to honour the Palestinian struggle

NOVANEWS Judith Butler The BDS committee was formed in 2005 and has the support of more than 170 organisations in Palestine. (AFP) The University of Cape Town has the chance to take a position in support of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement and I join academics around the world in hoping that the ethically obligatory and politically progressive decision will be made to express support and to bind the university to its principles. That should not be very difficult, since BDS draws on longstanding traditions, some of which were importantly developed in the context of the struggle against apartheid, for refusing modes of co-operation and economic consumption that seek to normalise relations with a state and its institutions structured on a model of settler colonia...

Britain’s witchfinders are ready to burn Jeremy Corbyn

NOVANEWS By Jonathan Cook “McCarthyism” is a word thrown around a lot nowadays, and in the process its true meaning – and horror – has been increasingly obscured. McCarthyism is not just the hounding of someone because their views are unpopular. It is the creation by the powerful of a perfect, self-rationalising system of incrimination – denying the victim a voice, even in their own defence. It presents the accused as an enemy so dangerous, their ideas so corrupting, that they must be silenced from the outset. Their only chance of rehabilitation is prostration before their accusers and utter repentance. McCarthyism, in other words, is the modern political parallel of the witch hunt. In an earlier era, the guilt of women accused of witchcraft was tested through the ducking stool. If a wo...

Boycotts the Nazi regime of 'Israel'

NOVANEWS Poll: 75% of Americans Oppose Outlawing Boycotts of Israel Illustrative photo of signs calling for the boycott of Israel at an anti-Israel protest in San Francisco, April 2011 (CC BY-dignidadrebelde, Flickr) Americans in general do not like anti-BDS laws nearly as much as Congress does: just 22.5% of American adults polled favor anti-boycott measure. But Washington and many state legislatures are pushing through legislation that would criminalize boycott of Israel. by Grant Smith, antiwar.com New legislation passed in the Senate seeks to legalize the right of individual state governments to force American companies to certify they won’t engage in economic boycotts of Israel as a condition for receiving government contracts.

War on BDS: How AIPAC-'Israel' Agenda Became US Priority

NOVANEWS War on BDS: How AIPAC-Israel Agenda Became US Priority By Ramzy Baroud The Israeli-US war declared on the Palestinian boycott movement is coming to a head, culminating in a well-orchestrated effort aimed at suffocating any form of tangible protest of the ongoing Israeli colonization of Palestine. But an Israeli ‘victory’, even with blind US government support, is still too elusive if at all guaranteed. Killing unarmed protesters at the fence separating besieged Gaza from Israel is often whitewashed as Israel ‘defending itself’. However, legislating unconstitutional laws against the rights of ordinary people to boycott a state that practices war crimes might not be an easy endeavor. The fact that 26 US states have already passed legislation or some form of condemnation of...
