NOVANEWS The Palestinian Authority Minister of Prisoner Affairs Issa Qaraqi’ was quoted  Sunday as saying the Zionist State is the “major harvesting and trading center” of body  organs in the world.

The prisoner release is part of a number of  steps being discussed, including the return of the bodies of Palestinian 's buried  in IsraHell.

NOVANEWS by Administrator Just after midnight on Monday, August 22  the Israeli military took the opportunity to trap 1500 Palestinian youth inside al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, blow up a house in Hebron (injuring 30 people in the ensuing riots), and arrested a member of the Freedom Theatre in Jenin. In Jerusalem, thousands of Palestinians gathered to protest the Israeli escalation of violence in the Gaza Strip. Starting from the Bab Al `Amoud (Damscus Gate) area and marching toward Salah El Deen Street, the protesters suddenly found themselves under attack by Israeli  soldiers after the latter claimed that a soldier had been stabbed. Israeli soldiers and border police closed off the Bab Al Amoud area and Salah El Deen Street and kidnapped several Palestinian youth who were taken to the Al...

The Miami Herald has published a disturbing and one-sided op-ed by U.S. Rep. Ileana Zionist Ros-Lehtinen, Chairperson of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, 'To protect Israel at the UN, money talks' (8/27) in which the Congresswoman recommends cutting off all US assistance to Palestinians if they proceed with the UN statehood bid -- maintaining that this "scheme" is "anti-Israel" and "anti-peace."  Ros-Lehtinen also plans to introduce legislation in Congress which would "cut off U.S. contributions to any UN entity that grants membership or any other upgraded status to the Palestinian observer mission."  The op-ed is a perfect illustration of the extreme bias against Palestinians that reigns in the US Congress where the Congresswoman plays a leading role.  While Rep. Ros-Lehtinen oppo...

NOVANEWS PALESTINE TELEGRAPH Gaza, (Pal Telegraph) – Many media outlets adopt the Israeli accounts without making sure about its validity.  The attack in Eilat which claimed the lives of 7 Israelis was vivid that it has targeted armed soldiers. Yet, Israeli media outlets led by Haaretz said “People” were killed, afterwards we have seen photos of the scene where military bags indicate it was a military target. Sadly, all professional media outlets circulated that one side of the story without carrying out any journalistic efforts. BBC, CNN, AFP, Reuters and the key outlets said that civilians were attacked in Israeli resort in Eilat. Shortly, contradictions started to arise as Israeli army released photos of some of the killed soldiers.  Haaretz, published a piece of news showing Israeli...
