Israel’s War on the United Nations
The United Nations is an easy body to hate. At times, it seems to be effusion without substance, body with no backbone.

One Year of Genocide, 100 Years of Colonization

Time to Face Truth: Canada’s Terrorist List Enables Terrorism
Justin Trudeau justified the brutal killing of the leader of a Lebanese political party on the grounds Canada lists his organization as “terrorist”. On Friday Israel leveled six large apartment buildings in the Dahiyeh suburb of Beirut with some 80 bombs weighing 2,000 to 4,000 pounds each.

Killing Hassan Nasrallah
The ongoing Israeli operation against Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militia group so dominant in Lebanon, is following a standard pattern. Ignore base causes. Ignore context.
