  • State of Play in US-Israel’s Land-Grab Bid

    Trump, impatient to claim a Nobel Peace prize, bullies everyone into accepting a madcap peace plan that gives little or no consideration to the Palestinians’ future. Who gave him authority to decide such matters, and where are the United Nations in all this? And what about international law and the raft of UN resolutions on these […]

  • Bibi Has Been Giving Money to Hamas

    Confirmed by Israeli media, not fake news. Bibi has been giving money to Hamas. “Hamas was treated as a partner to the detriment of the Palestinian Authority to prevent Abbas from moving towards creating a Palestinian State. Hamas was promoted from a terrorist group to an organization with which Israel conducted negotiations through Egypt, and […]

  • Palestinian Subordination: Donald Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan

    He had moments of discomfort and embarrassment – pressed into calling the Qatari Prime Minister by his host to apologise for striking Doha and made to pay lip service to the prospect of a Palestinian state – but Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu had many reasons to be pleased. On September 29, President Donald Trump advanced a […]

  • Miracle on the Mediterranean—an Appeal to the Vatican State

    Miracle on the Mediterranean—an Appeal to the Vatican State

    Activists and human rights defenders ride aboard a vessel departing from Tunisia’s northern port of Bizerte on September 14, 2025 to join the last boats taking part in the Global Sumud Flotilla, bound for the Gaza Strip to break Israel’s blockade on the Palestinian territory. Sumud means “resilience” in Arabic, and the flotilla describes itself […]

  • Recognize Hamas

    Recognize Hamas

    Meaningless gestures Israel’s most genocidal Western supporters are planning to “recognize” a “Palestinian state”. France, Britain, maybe even Canada if the Palestinian state meets the Canadian Prime Minister’s novel criterion (the Canadian PM said he thinks there needs to be a “Zionist Palestinian State”). This “Palestinian State” will be run by the “Palestinian Authority” and […]

  • Israeli Overreach in Palestine and West Asia

    In an extraordinary televised statement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told the Zionist faithful that the state of Israel will curtail its current ambitions as part of a longer term strategy. The statement is short on specifics, but it comes on the heels of several apparent major failures of Israeli policy. The most recent […]

  • Bernie Sanders Is a Ghoulish Zionist

    Bernie Sanders finally issued a statement acknowledging the indisputable fact that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza after two years of adamantly refusing to do so. The statement begins as follows: “Hamas, a terrorist organization, began this war with its brutal attack on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 innocent people and took 250 hostages. […]

  • A DSA Chapter Struggles With Zionism

    At its August 2025 biennial convention in Chicago, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) adopted a powerful resolution, “For a Fighting Anti-Zionist DSA“.  The resolution, which the 1200 delegates passed by 56 to 44 percent, has been recognized as a significant step forward for the organization. It makes “organizing in solidarity with the Palestinian cause a priority until Palestine is […]

  • From Doha to the UN: Turning Israel’s Terror Into Global Action

    Funeral in Doha for 5 people killed in the September 10 Israeli strike. Photo: AFP Responding to Israel’s September 10 attack aimed at Hamas negotiators in Qatar, all 12 members of the UN Security Council issued a toothless statement of condemnation that didn’t even mention Israel by name. This cowardly response underscores the pathetic international reaction to […]

  • The desperation of Israel’s Qatar attack

    Israel might claim that they were not attacking Qatar per se, but rather Hamas in Qatar, but that is neither a distinction nor a difference. Qatar is considered neutral territory in the region, a place where representatives of Hamas, the Israeli government, the US, Egypt, and other interlocutors could meet and negotiate safely. Qatari territory […]
