• 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 (…)
• 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 (…)
• A racist Jewish state
  19 April 2009
  Every day the Knesset has the option of passing laws that will advance Israel as a democratic Jewish state or turn it into a racist Jewish state. There is a very thin line between the two. This week, the line was crossed. If the Knesset legal counselor did not consider the bill entitled "the Jewish National Fund Law" as sufficiently racist to keep it off the agenda, it is hard to imagine what legislation she will consider racist. In 1995 the Supreme Court rescued the state from callously (…)
• Nous, Juifs contre les frappes d’Israël
  20 avril 2007
  Voici vingt-quatre ans, Israël lançait au Liban l’opération « Paix en Galilée », qui allait, par les bombardements terrestres et aériens, faire des centaines de victimes civiles et qui devait aussi, du fait de l’appui apporté par Israël à ses supplétifs libanais, conduire aux massacres de Sabra et Chatila. C’est alors que, grâce à l’initiative de Pierre Vidal-Naquet notamment , fut lancé un appel de cent intellectuels juifs qui se désolidarisaient des soutiens inconditionnels à l’opération (…)
• 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, (…)
• حدثونا من فضلكم عن السيادة المصرية!
  10 كانون الثاني (يناير) 2010, بقلم أحمد الخميسي
  هذا مقال قديم، لكني أرجوك ألا تتركه خاصة أنه ليس طويلا ولا مملا!، لأنه ما من مقال ينطبق على ما جرى مع قافلة شريان الحياة قدر ما ينطبق هذا المقال الذي نشر في مطلع مارس عام ٢٠٠٨عندما حاول الفلسطينيون المحاصرون من كل جهات الأرض الاندفاع إلي نسمة هواء عبر حدود مصر. حينذاك ارتفعت أصوات كثيرة تكلمنا عن سيادة مصر، كما ترتفع الآن بنفس النغمة بشأن قافلة شريان الحياة. إنه مقال قديم، لكني أرجوك ألا تتركه. أود الآن أن أسمع صوت تلك الجوقة التي رفعت أصواتها بالحديث عن"سيادة مصر "، وعن " الخطوط الحمراء (…)
• Israel’s Righteous Fury and its Victims in Gaza
  9 January 2009, by Ilan Pappe
  My visit back home to the Galilee coincided with the genocidal Israeli attack on Gaza. The state, through its media and with the help of its academia, broadcasted one unanimous voice — even louder than the one heard during the criminal attack against Lebanon in the summer of 2006. Israel is engulfed once more with righteous fury that translates into destructive policies in the Gaza Strip. This appalling self-justification for the inhumanity and impunity is not just annoying, it is a subject (…)
• U.S. drops spy charges against two ex-AIPAC officials
  3 May 2009
  Federal prosecutors moved Friday to dismiss espionage-related charges against two former pro-Israel lobbyists accused of disclosing classified U.S. defense information, ending a tortuous inside-the-Beltway legal battle rife with national security intrigue. Critics of the prosecution of Steven Rosen and Keith Weissman of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee accused the federal government of trying to criminalize the sort of back-channel discussions between government officials, (…)
• US Hides Behind Iran Sanctions Threat
  2 May 2009, by Kaveh L Afrasiabi
  Whereas United States President Barack Obama promised in his new year message to Iran that he was committed to a new diplomacy that "will not be advanced by threats", a month later this is precisely what is happening. This is in light of new White House-backed legislation in the US Congress that aims to impose "crippling sanctions" on Iran by targeting its energy imports. The Iran Sanctions Enhancement Act, introduced by a bipartisan group of US senators, states in its preamble that its (…)
• Barak Approves More Settlement Units Before Heading To Talk “Peace” in Washington
  30 June 2009
  Hours before he took off to Washington for talks with the US administration on peace and settlements, Israeli Army Minister, Ehud Barak, approved the construction of a new settlement in the so-called Benyamin region. The approval came as part of a deal with the settlers who were evacuated from the illegal Migron settlement outpost. The settlers would move into a new settlement of 250 houses after they evacuate their outpost built on privately owned Palestinian land. Migron is inhibited (…)
