مساء الخير ياعرب.. مسا أمة كلها عطبّ ..؟؟
21 كانون الأول (ديسمبر) 2012, بقلم بلال فورانيمساء يليق بكم .. ولا عندي لياقة لاستقباله بالشكل الجميل فعذراً منكم مساء الوجعّ الذي لا أفردّ له جناحي .. لكنه بكل شطارة يسرقّ ريشي مني ويطير مساء الموت الذي فاحت رائحته من جثث أبناء غزة وما زال العرب يتغزلون بعطور فرنسا مساء الدم الساخن…الذي ينسكب على الأرض الفلسطينية كي يسقي العرب بعض الكرامة مساء ضحكة طفل فلسطيني مات تحت التراب قبل أن يتعلمّ البكاء على أرض الميعاد مساء الأقنعة المزيفة .. التي سقطت بكل تطرفّ أعمى أمام أمة يفترضّ بأنها أمة وسطى مساء التسولّ الرخيص من أنصاف رجال يجلسون في (…) -
Utopia as Alibi: Said, Barenboim and the Divan Orchestra
20 December 2009, by Raymond DeanAs 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 (…) -
En Israël, une association déterre le passé enfoui de plusieurs villages arabes rasés
5 avril 2009Zochrot est une organisation israélienne unique : elle tente de retrouver les traces des villages arabes détruits lors de la création d’Israël en 1948, afin d’empêcher que leur souvenir ne disparaisse entièrement de la mémoire collective. « Nous avons posé plus de cent panneaux de marquage, tous ont été enlevés », déclare Eitan Bronstein, le directeur de Zochrot (Souvenir en hébreu), en parcourant les ruines de Simsim, un ancien village arabe proche de la bande de Gaza. « Je ne serais pas (…) -
A Jérusalem-Est, le quartier Al-Boustan s’organise contre sa destruction annoncée
18 mars 2009, par Michel Bôle-RichardLa résistance s’est organisée. Une grande tente a été dressée et un comité de défense a été désigné. Le quartier Al-Boustan ("le jardin") à Jérusalem-Est est sur le pied de guerre. Les autorités israéliennes ont projeté de démolir 88 maisons pour y créer un parc. Le projet date de quatre ans, mais il vient d’être remis sur la table, et des ordres de démolition ont été notifiés aux 1 500 habitants de ces maisons qui, dit la mairie, ont été construites sans permis de construire. "Certaines (…) -
Gaza, remember?
19 April 2009, by Gideon LevyAlyan Abu-Aun is lying in his tent, his crutches beside him. He smokes cigarettes and stares into the tiny tent’s empty space. His young son sits on his lap. Ten people are crammed into the tent, about the size of a small room. It has been their home for three months. Nothing remains of their previous home, which the Israel Defense Forces shelled during Operation Cast Lead. They are refugees for a second time; Abu-Aun’s mother still remembers her home in Sumsum, a town that once stood near (…) -
Arabs-Israelis protest against Jewish state’s ’racism’
19 April 2009Thousands of Arab-Israelis on Monday demonstrated against what they called Israel’s "racism" at a rally commemorating the killing of six people in a 1976 protest against land grabs. Arab-Israeli MPs, mayors and other dignitaries were among the demonstrators in the annual Land Day protest at Deir Hanna village in Israel’s Galilee region. Waving Palestinian flags and green banners - the color of the Islamic movement - as well as the symbols of the various Arab-Israeli parties, the (…) -
A PRE-PLANNED AND PRE-MEDITATED EFFORT FOR ETHNIC CLEANSING AND LAND THEFT
28 February 2009, by Nizar SakhniniPROLOGUE: The Zionist propaganda began with a big lie claiming that Palestine was a “land without people for a people without a land”. Palestine, however, was not a ‘land without people’. Accordingly, creation of a ‘Jewish State’ with a ‘Jewish Majority’ implied getting rid of its indigenous population and stealing their homes and lands. The pre-planned and pre-meditated Zionist efforts for Ethnic Cleansing and Land Theft started in 1948 and never stopped to this date. HISTORICAL (…) -
George Habash’s contribution to the Palestinian Struggle
2 February 2008, by As’ad AbuKhalilI lived more than half of my life in the US and I never felt the alienation that I felt on the day I read George Habash, the Palestinian revolutionary who passed away last week, labeled as a "terrorism tactician" in a front page obituary in The New York Times. What do you do when they want to convince you that a kind and gentle man you met and respected as a person is a terrorist when you know otherwise? Do you quibble with their definitions to no avail? Do you go back and see how they wrote (…) -
Israeli Economy for Beginners
14 August 2011, by Gilad AtzmonWe learn from the press and political analysts that, against all odds and in spite of the global financial turmoil, Israel’s economy is booming. Some even suggest that Israel is one of the strongest economies around. ‘How come?’ you may ask; besides maybe avocado, oranges, and some Dead Sea beauty products, none of us has actually ever seen an Israeli product on the shelves. They don’t make cars; nor do they make electric or electronic appliances, and they hardly manufacture any (…) -
Mahmoud Abbas and Barack Obama: tragic hero vs political prostitute
24 September 2011, by Uri AvneryA wonderful speech. A beautiful speech. The language expressive and elegant. The arguments clear and convincing. The delivery flawless. A work of art. The art of hypocrisy. Almost every statement in the passage concerning the Israeli-Palestinian issue was a lie. A blatant lie: the speaker knew it was a lie, and so did the audience. It was Obama at his best, Obama at his worst. Being a moral person, he must have felt the urge to vomit. Being a pragmatic person, he knew that he had to (…)
