Message from UK High Court

NOVANEWS Message from UK High Court: Carry on arming the Saudis (and never mind the slaughter in Yemen) By Stuart Littlewood Campaigners are furious with a High Court decision in London allowing the British government to carry on exporting arms to Saudi Arabia for use against Yemenis. The Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) brought the legal action against the secretary of state for international trade for continuing to grant export licences for arms to Saudi Arabia, arguing that this was against UK policy, which states that the government must refuse such licences if there’s a clear risk that the arms might be used to commit serious violations of international humanitarian law. It is undeniable that Saudi forces have used UK-supplied weaponry to violate international humanitarian law i...

The Middle East has ISIS and Ohio gets Josh Mandel

NOVANEWS By Mahmoud El-Yousseph After Governments websites in 3 states including the websites Governor John Kasich and the first lady Karin Kasich were hacked by Team System DZ with pro ISIS messages, State Treasurer Josh Mandel went on rampage by posting absurd and anti Muslims messages on his Facebook. That was even before the FBI's Ohio field office would confirm the identity of the hackers, Mandel saw fit to blame Islam and Muslims. To rant on Facebook, " Wake up freedom-loving Americans" and "Radical Islam is infiltrating the heartland" without any evidence is nothing more than incitement and misinformation campaign against Muslims. It is absolutely amazing that a Jew such as Mandel has such a short memory about where such prejudice leads. This is by no means the fist time Mr. ...

UK Election: Theresa May or Jeremy Corbyn?

NOVANEWS The Unknown Factor in that YouGov Poll: Theresa May or Jeremy Corbyn? The Unknown Factor in that YouGov Poll By Graham Vanbergen True Publica When Theresa May called a snap election two months after reiterating seven times in as many months that she would not do so, there were seemingly good reasons behind it. Not least, May was in a commanding 21 point lead ahead of Corbyn and she appeared at the time to be the most solid politician to help negotiate a good Brexit deal for the country. In addition, Labour was in the midst of an internal battle, driven by a more right-wing ‘Blairite’ agenda. Predictions were calling this a coronation more than an election. It was considered a slam-dunk, an election was not really necessary but democracy required going through the mo...

Nazi regime steps up dirty tricks against boycott leaders

Israel steps up dirty tricks against boycott leaders By Jonathan Cook in Nazareth Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu addressed cohorts of Israel loyalists in the United States by video link last week at the annual conference of AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. They should, he said, follow his government’s example and defend Israel on the “moral battlefield” against the growing threat of the international boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement. In Netanyahu’s simple-minded language, support for Palestinian rights, and opposition to the settlements, is equivalent to “delegitimisation” of Israel. The current obsession with BDS reflects a changing political environment for Israel. Subverting human rights bodies According to an investigation by the Haare...

Pushing Palestinians off their land — by pumping sewage onto it

NOVANEWS Not content with ongoing demolitions in Umm al-Kheir and the destruction of its taboun, settlers in nearby Carmel have resorted to piping their waste onto the land belonging to the village. By Yossi Gurvitz, for Yesh Din A delegation from the Center for Jewish Nonviolence helps rebuild a demolished home in the Palestinian village of Umm al-Kheir, July 12, 2016. The Israeli settlement of Carmel is seen in the background. (Michael Schaeffer Omer-Man) The usual problem with reporting on what happens in the West Bank is lens width, an essential physical problem: you want to focus on the details, and hence need to narrow the lens. Yet the details themselves are part of a greater picture, demanding a wider lens. Related stories WATCH: Struggling for human rights under th...

BOYCOTT NAZI I$RAHELL

NOVANEWS Report Examines Widespread Attacks On Palestinian Human Rights Activists On College Campuses By Kevin Gostzola | ShadowProof | A nonprofit legal advocacy organization has documented and responded to nearly 300 incidents of censorship, punishment, and other actions intended to “burden” advocacy for Palestinian human rights. The incidents point to a pervasive problem on American campuses, which is chilling the rights of individuals to engage in free speech. The incidents are largely a result of pressure from defenders of Israel to the increased success of the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement against Israeli military occupation. Palestine Legal, which was founded in 2012 to support the rights of Americans to speak out for Palestinian freedom, and the Center ...
