Leila Khaled on ISIS and Islamism, Syria and the Palestinians
A terrorist for the Israelis, Khaled was a symbol throughout the world for the Palestinian armed struggle, following her participation in one of the four simultaneous hijackings of September 1970, inspiring songs, films and works of art internationally. These hijackings were part of the Palestinian “response” to the ignominious defeat they suffered with the
How Israel Is Losing America
To be sure, to some extent, Ball’s position still represents a cry in the desert. After all, America has not wavered in its commitment to maintaining Israel’s “qualitative military edge.” In fact, US President Barack Obama’s administration has broken all historical records in its military aid to Israel, even as Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has shown no
Vatican Fully Recognizes Palestine State
The Vatican announced Saturday that its “Comprehensive Agreement” with the “State of Palestine” signed in June 2015 has come into full force, in which the Holy See bolstered support for the two-state solution of the long-standing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
What the media misses in the Syrian bloodbath: a ‘thank you’...
Wikileaks has released what may be the most under-reported story of the year in a yearfull of them, Hillary Clinton's uncanny fulfillment of Oded Yinon's plan for the Middle East according to Israel 30 years ago. This was summed up in Yinon's "A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties." Yinon, an influential right-wing Israeli strategist, envisioned a
Middle East divides the Empire (a text of unusual clarity)
The West should seek the further weakening of Islamic State, but not its destruction. A weak but functioning IS can undermine the appeal of the caliphate among radical Muslims; keep bad actors focused on one another rather than on Western targets; and hamper Iran’s quest for regional hegemony.

Diaspora Jews Are Joining Palestinians in Nonviolent Resistance to the Occupation
I’ve always wondered if a day would come when there would be a cause so important that I would be willing to get arrested for standing up for what I believe in. That day came on Friday, July 15, when I was in the West Bank city of Hebron protesting the Israeli occupation, alongside dozens of other North American and European Jews. But it didn’t turn out the way I’d expected.
UN calls for end to “egregious” administrative detention as Bilal Kayed...
UN official Robert Piper called on the Israeli occupation to “charge or release” Bilal Kayed in a statement released on Saturday, 20 August, Kayed’s 67th day of hunger strike. The statement came as reports indicated that Kayed had been transferred to intensive care within Barzilai Hospital, and as fellow hunger striker Jalal al-Faqih, part of the collective strike in support of Kayed, was urgently transferred to HaEmek hospital after a serious heart incident.
‘Most-read’ article at Washington Post calls Israel ‘savage, unrepairable society’
The leftwing movement of criticism of Israel is getting more and more mainstream by the second. Everyone is walking the path; they’re just getting there a little later. The Washington Post, a hotbed of neoconservative ideas for the last 15 years, has another article harshly critical of Israel today, written by an Israeli. And guess what: that article along with yesterday’s article by the two prestige Jewish academics calling for boycott of Israel are the two “most-read” articles on the Post list this morning!
Russians in Iran – a strategic setback for US and Israel
Russian use of the base, with Iran’s obvious support, appeared to set back or at least further complicate Russia’s troubled relations with the United States, which has been working with Russia over how to end the Syria conflict.
