  The AIPAC 10 - Demanding That Zionists Not Engage in Lobbying

  The AIPAC 10 deserve our praise and admiration for their bold stand against AIPAC and the right wing US politicians that make it possible for Israel to carry on their war on Gaza and the Palestinians... On behalf of all peace and justice loving people of the world thank you, thank you, thank you... and congratulations!

  Excellent (Video) Report on the Destruction in Gaza

  Michael, You are the one spreading lies, as your seemingly infallible statements clearly show... ¨which was due to Hamas using human shields¨... you talk as if you were there, and if so, how come you did not see the hundreds of bodies of dead children burnt with white phosphorus? You do have a nerve to say that Hamas actions violate international law, when the ¨democratic¨ Israel you defend, has ignored and failed to respect dozens of important international United Nations resolutions.
  Everyone knows by now the Israeli ¨Hamas human shield LIE¨, as well as the Israeli ¨Hamas BAD, Israel GOOD LIE¨. Please be serious! Some of us have friends and family members there and know what is going on. Even the United Nations personnel are quite aware of commonly known Israeli lies, which YOU and the Israeli propaganda machinery keep using unashamedly, hoping to dupe the many ignorant people, still out there, who are willing to believe them.
  Sorry, but you and those like you spreading blatant Israeli lies and propaganda have zero credibility; the same the new Israeli government will have headed by Netanyahu, who was labelled a liar even by US mediators. 
  While everyone has one story to tell, you and the Israelis are asking the world to place their blind faith on people like you who, if not through utter ignorance, are more than willing to distort the truth to gain whatever international media or public opinion advantage you can, at the cost of all credibility. 
  We sometimes hear of people who deny the Jewish Holocaust, but is that any different than you denying the FACT that 410 children were murdered by Israeli weapons and bombs in Gaza recently? Also, would a smaller number of victims justify in any way the Israeli massacre of innocent civilians in Gaza?Why do you pretend to deny that there is an inhuman blockade being perpetrated against Gaza?... Is it not perhaps because if people found out about Israeli injustices Israeli policies would be widely questioned and there would be a significant loss of US support for Israel... the key to its supremacy in the region?
  Whatever you say or think about Hamas, they have repeatedly stated that when Israel recognises their right to exist as human beings and stops humiliating and starving them, there would be no more rockets. And ONLY when Israel attempts this and tries seriously to make peace with the Palestinians on an equal basis, will there be peace and sympathy for Israel around the world.

  Excellent (Video) Report on the Destruction in Gaza

  Vlasta, you pretend to make us believe that the Palestinian victims are the destroyers and attackers of innocent Israelis, who have voted for extreme right wing parties and politicians like Mr Lieberman (an outspoken racist who has called for the use of atomic weapons against Gazans). But despite what you and others like you are saying in a blind defence of Israel, the truth is that it is Not Israel that is being destroyed ... but Gaza and the Palestinian people and territories... And Israel should not only denounce state terrorism, but also STOP terrorising and bombing Palestinians indiscriminately. Unlike you, anyone with a sense of reality and compassion is much more likely to say that the historical and continuing Israeli aggression against Gaza and the Palestinian people is a very good reason not to trust Israeli intentions in the Middle East.

  Excellent (Video) Report on the Destruction in Gaza

  Yes Michael, it is a truly tragic story resulting from an error... the error that Israelis and supporters of the Nazi policies of Israel keep making in the Middle East, bombing, killing and maiming innocent people and destroying their homes while putting the blame on imaginary Hamas attackers, who... according to the Israelis... always happen to be nearby. But the very low number of Israeli casualties compared to the very high indiscriminate Palestinian death toll in Gaza clearly shows the cruel Israeli lie and the lack of Israeli interest in a just peace with the Palestinians.

  Parsing the Refusal: Why Are Israeli Fears Seen as Irrelevant?

  My compliments to Mary Richards for saying it like it is.
  Peace is only possible when our intentions are honest.

  Parsing the Refusal: Why Are Israeli Fears Seen as Irrelevant?

  Lebanon did not attack Israel, some Lebanese have responded to Israeli air and ground incursions to kill their leaders and those who resist aggression. Israel was also responsible for the massacre of Palestinians in Chabra and Chatila refugee camp in 1982, during one of the Israeli invasions of Lebanon.
