In its increasingly rabid efforts to consolidate control of traditionally Arab-East Jerusalem, Israel this week moved to suppress Palestinian cultural activities associated with the city being declared the capital of Arab culture for 2009.
On 19 March heavily armed paramilitary police violently dispersed a meeting at the Ambassador Hotel in East Jerusalem, confiscating posters, leaflets, placards and computers.
Israeli police also raided schools, social clubs and community centres to (…)

Devouring Jerusalem

A racist Jewish state
19 April 2009Every 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 (…) -
صدامات أم الفحم: نموذج أوَّلي لتصفية القضية
28 آذار (مارس) 2009, بقلم د. عادل سمارةحتى لو بدأنا قراءة الصراع العربي-الصهيوني من مذبحة غزة، لكان ذلك كافٍ لرؤية الخطر المحدق والخطر القادم بتصميم من مختلف الأطراف الرسمية تجاه حق الشعب الفلسطيني والأمة العربية ومستقبلهما. وهو خطر ينقسم إلى مستويين وليس نقيضين:
– في المستوى الأول مشروع صهيوني رقم (أ) بطرد فلسطينيي ١٩٤٨ إلى الضفة الغربية والأردن، وهذا ما تقبله الأطراف العربية الرسمية، دون إعلان، على أمل أن يكتفي الكيان الصهيوني بهذا ويمنح سلطة الحكم الذاتي ما يقارب دولة!
– وفي المستوى الثاني، أن هذا الطرد هو مقدمة لطرد كل من (…) -
Israel’s fabricated rocket crisis
5 April 2009, by Jim Holstun, Joanna TinkerIn The Iron Wall (2001), Israeli historian Avi Shlaim shows that in July 1981, US diplomat Philip Habib brokered a ceasefire between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Israel. For the next year, the PLO infuriated Israel by refusing to violate the ceasefire and thereby provide an excuse for Israel’s long-planned attack on PLO refugee camps and bases in Lebanon. Then, on 3 June 1982, a member of the Abu Nidal organization shot and wounded Shlomo Argov, the Israeli ambassador in (…)

La deuxième mort du judaïsme
18 janvier 2009, par Eric HazanLes millions de juifs qui ont été exterminés par les nazis dans les plaines de Pologne avaient des traits communs qui permettent de parler d’un judaïsme européen. Ce n’était pas tant le sentiment d’appartenance à un peuple mythique, ni la religion car beaucoup d’entre eux s’en étaient détachés : c’étaient des éléments de culture commune. Elle ne se réduisait pas à des recettes de cuisine, ni à des histoires véhiculant le fameux humour juif, ni à une langue, car tous ne parlaient pas le (…)

Ahmadinejad, time for a change of tactics?
21 April 2009, by Mary RizzoEvery time I see Ahmadinejad go to speak at a forum, I start to put my hands in my hair. It is not that I disagree with the man, it’s simply that I can’t figure out why he has still not yet learned how the game works at least where the majority of the world’s power structure is located. It is enough for him to be announced as a visitor, be it at Columbia University, the UN General Assembly or an international forum on racism, and all the players line up to go through the motions. While his (…)

La création d’un État palestinien minée par la poursuite de la colonisation en Cisjordanie
28 avril 2009La poursuite au rythme actuel de la colonisation israélienne en Cisjordanie occupée risque d’anéantir les chances de création d’un État palestinien aux côtés d’Israël, a mis en garde hier l’ONG israélienne Ir Amim. « Si la colonisation continue, il sera bientôt trop tard pour une solution au conflit basée sur deux États. Ce sera l’impasse absolue », a averti l’avocat Daniel Seidemann, à la tête de cette ONG, qui s’est spécialisée dans le suivi de la colonisation de la partie orientale de (…)

Barak Approves More Settlement Units Before Heading To Talk “Peace” in Washington
30 June 2009Hours 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 (…) -
De la propagande : entretiens avec David Barsamian - Fayard 2002
12 avril 2007, par Noam ChomskyQue répondez-vous à ceux qui, entendant votre critique d’Israël et de son recours à une force excessive, vous demandent : et la Syrie ? Pourquoi ne parlez-vous pas de la Libye ou de l’Irak ? La situation n’y est-elle pas infiniment pire ?
Bien sûr. J’ai parlé du Pakistan à l’instant. Ces pays sont bien pires. J’en conviens. Je ne critique pas vraiment. Je me contente de citer Human Rights Watch et Amnesty International. Ces commentaires sont très prudents. Je m’en tiendrais à leur point de (…) -
US Hides Behind Iran Sanctions Threat
2 May 2009, by Kaveh L AfrasiabiWhereas 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 (…)
