Israel/ Palestine
From Boris Johnson to Trump, will Western Conservatives go on Supporting Israeli Colonialism in Palestine to the Hilt?
By Muhammad Hussein | – When Boris Johnson was voted in as leader of the Conservative Party and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom by default last month, there was a lot of speculation about his premiership: Brexit, policing and youth services, global trade deals, and even the question of what do about Iran. There […]
Israel Summons 5-year-old for Police Interrogation
Muhammad Rabi’ Elayyan was summoned by the Israeli police to be interrogated; the summons was handed to his family in occupied Jerusalem, who had to take him to the police station. The boy is just five years old, but he is not the first child to be taken for interrogation. We know of this particular […]
As the Far Right goes Global, so do Bills trying to Outlaw boycott of Israel
By Rachel Hodes | – (Foreign Policy in Focus) – An increasingly global campaign to tar the BDS movement as “anti-Semitic” comes as Israel’s staunchest global defenders are increasingly anti-Semites themselves. Israeli politics have moved into uncharted territory over the past several months, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu found himself unable to form a coalition […]
Bernie Sanders would ‘Absolutely’ cut Military Aid to Israel to get Two-State Solution
In an interview Sanders was asked whether he would consider using the billions of dollars in military aid from the US to change Israel’s behaviour, to which he replied “absolutely”. Our policy cannot just be pro-Israel pro-Israel pro-Israel. It has got to be pro-region working with all of the people, all of the countries in […]
Creeping Ethnic Cleansing as Israel Demolishes 18 more Palestinian-owned Buildings
By Rasheed Hassan | – The Israeli occupation authorities demolished 18 Palestinian-owned residential buildings this week in Sur Bahir, just 2 or 3 km from Al-Aqsa, rendering the inhabitants homeless. It was yet another crime intended to boost Israel’s ethnic cleansing of historic Palestine and it coincided with the visit of a delegation of Arab […]
How Israeli Schools Erase or Demonize Palestinians for the Next Generation
By Asa Winstanley | @AsaWinstanley | – Dissident Israeli scholar Nurit Peled-Elhanan’s important academic study, “Palestine in Israeli School Books” is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand some important realities about the Israeli state and Israeli society. As a settler-colonial entity, real change can never come from within Israeli society. It must be […]
Without Political Boycotts, the Civil Rights Movement Might have failed: Congress is gutting Constitution to Protect Israeli War Crimes
Ann Arbor (informed Comment) – The House of Representatives on Thursday passed by a 398-17 margin a resolution condemning the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel. In so doing, they weakened the US First Amendment of the Constitution, which forbids Congress to censor political speech. Americans don’t need the House’s permission to express their […]
Trump’s Calls to “Send Them Back” are Mainstream in Israel
The affinity between Trump and Netanyahu is more than personal. It’s rooted in a shared fantasy of a perfectly homogeneous society.
