• Utopia as Alibi: Said, Barenboim and the Divan Orchestra
  20 December 2009, by Raymond Dean
  As a classical musician involved in pro-Palestinian activism, I frequently encounter the assumption that I am an unconditional admirer of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra (WEDO). My reservations on this score tend to produce shocked disapproval: How could I not enthuse about such an idealistic project, particularly since it was co-founded by the late Edward Said, a figure for whom I have frequently expressed respect and admiration? In truth, I have always been a little wary of Said’s (…)
• The language of Zionism
  13 May 2010, by Joseph Massad
  The reason for the ongoing "violence" in Israel and Palestine is not on account of Israeli colonialism at all but rather a direct result of mistranslation. Joseph Massad provides an abridged lexicon of Zionist terminology
• Victorious, but vilified: Israel has ’destroyed its image and its soul’
  18 January 2009, by Donald Macintyre, Kim Sengupta
  After three weeks of carnage in Gaza, there were tentative signs of a ceasefire last night. But the bitter legacy of the past 22 days for Israel is that, while it declares victory on the battlefield, the country’s reputation has rarely sunk so low. Yesterday the United Nations called for a war crimes investigation after two children, aged five and seven, were killed when, it claimed, an Israeli tank shell hit a school sheltering some of the more than 40,000 internally displaced refugees. (…)
• Gideon Levy / An open response to A.B. Yehoshua
  18 January 2009, by Gideon Levy
  Dear Bulli, Thank you for your frank letter and kind words. You wrote it was written from a "position of respect," and I, too, deeply respect your wonderful literary works. But, unfortunately, I have a lot less respect for your current political position. It is as if the mighty, including you, have succumbed to a great and terrible conflagration that has consumed any remnant of a moral backbone. You, too, esteemed author, have fallen prey to the wretched wave that has inundated, (…)
• إسرائيل ترتكب جريمة حرب "باردة" جديدة بتوزيع غنائم حرب ١٩٤٨
  8 آب (أغسطس) 2009
  صادق الكنيست الإسرائيلي يوم الاثنين ٢٠٠٩/٣/٨ على قانون جديد يسمح بخصخصة واسعة النطاق لما يعرف بـ«أراضي الدولة». مما يمكّن "الصندوق القومي لإسرائيل" من شراء أراضي اللاجئين الفلسطينيين ومن ثم بيعها لليهود فقط. وبموجب القانون الجديد الذي صوتت عليه أغلبية كبيرة ستقوم ما تعرف بـ«دائرة أراضي إسرائيل» ببيع عشرات آلاف الدونمات للصندوق القومي الإسرائيلي الذي سيتولى بيع وتأجير واستثمار أراضى اللاجئين الفلسطينيين التي لا يجوز لدولة إسرائيل التصرف بها. دراسة متأنية للقانون الجديد، في ضوء العرف الدولي (…)
• رامسفبلد لشولتز: لا عدل ولا سلام في الشرق الاوسط بل نزاع وابتزاز وقتل!
  25 نيسان (أبريل) 2015, بقلم ريمون عطاالله
  في اواخر عام ١٩٨٣ اوفد جورج شولتز، وزير الخارجية الاميركي في ادارة الرئيس رونالد رمغان، مبعوثاً خاصاً الى لبنان والمنطقة لتقصي الاوضاع هناك. والمبعوث هذا هو دونالد رامسفيلد الذي كان وزيراً للدفاع في ادارة الرئيس جيرالد فورد، ثم اصبح لاحقاً وزيراً للدفاع في ادارة الرئيس جورج دبليو بوش يوم تقرر غزو العراق وإطاحة نظام صدام حسين عام ٢٠٠٣. فكان اصغر وزراء الدفاع سناً في تاربخ الولايات المتحدة في ولايته الاولى، وكان اكبر وزراء الدفاع سناً في تاربخ اميركا في ولايتة الثانية. وقد حصل «الديبلوماسي» (…)
• What about the Arabs’ natural growth?
  2 July 2009, by Akiva Eldar
  It seems that never before has so much been written and said about the "natural growth" of so few. The issue of construction in the West Bank settlements for the sake of the future generation is threatening to sabotage Israel’s relations with the U.S., or undermine Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s relations with the settlers and their representatives in the Likud and Israel’s right wing. Maybe it is no coincidence that the government spokespeople insist on describing the homes for "sons (…)
• U.S.: Palestinians need not recognize Israel as Jewish state before talks
  19 April 2009, by Akiva Eldar
  Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s demand that the Palestinians recognize Israel as the state of the Jewish people as a condition for renewing peace talks is unacceptable to the United States, the State Department said during special envoy George Mitchell’s visits over the weekend to Ramallah and Cairo. The State Department released statements saying that the United States would continue to promote a two-state solution. In Ramallah, Mitchell met with Palestinian Authority President (…)
• The time of the righteous
  10 January 2009, by Gideon Levy
  This war, perhaps more than its predecessors, is exposing the true deep veins of Israeli society. Racism and hatred are rearing their heads, as is the impulse for revenge and the thirst for blood. The "inclination of the commander" in the Israel Defense Forces is now "to kill as many as possible," as the military correspondents on television describe it. And even if the reference is to Hamas fighters, this inclination is still chilling. The unbridled aggression and brutality are justified (…)
• The Facts About Hamas and the War on Gaza
  14 January 2009, by Norman Finkelstein
  The record is fairly clear. You can find it on the Israeli website, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. Israel broke the ceasefire by going into the Gaza and killing six or seven Palestinian militants. At that point—and now I’m quoting the official Israeli website—Hamas retaliated or, in retaliation for the Israeli attack, then launched the missiles. Now, as to the reason why, the record is fairly clear as well. According to Ha’aretz, Defense Minister Barak began plans for this (…)
