In contrast to Gilad Shalit, the French-Israeli soldier kidnapped by Hamas on June 2006, who became a cause celebrate by heads of states, international organizations, kidnapped Palestinian civilians are ignored by Israel, by the Palestinian leadership, certainly by the world community.
We can only wonder and imagine how our world would change if Israel chose peace—if it came to a peace with itself, with the Palestinians, with Arabs, and with the rest of the world, even the United States.
When Mohamed Merha killed three Jewish children and a Rabbi outside a school in Toulouse, France, the murder was immediately dubbed as “Anti-Semitic” crime, but the same was not said of his murder of three “Muslim” North African French soldiers.
No offense to believers, but according to Reverend John Hagee, the leader of the over one million strong “Christians United for Israel” in order to amend HIS/HER mistake, God/G-d decided to come down in Jerusalem and anoint Bibi Netanyahu as King of the Jews, just like King David or Moses!
When drafting the First Amendment rights, the Founding Fathers could not have imagined that one day, America would have a Fox News, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, Miami Herald or ADL and AIPAC.
Forget the annual $4 billion US Congress gives to Israel, allowing it to kill, destroy, steal rob and kidnap. Our citizens simply should consider these numbers.
I grew up when there were curfews that lasted for days, when listening to the wrong radio station could land you in jail, and when security/mokhabarat could haul you to jail for no reason at all.
A State of ALL its Citizens: The One-State Vision and Foundational Principles of a Republic in Historic Palestine
Note to readers: The Arab – Israeli conflict has defied so many generations of Israelis and Palestinians, so many Noble Prize winners, so many US presidents, so many wars, and so many proposed solutions. There is only one solution:
What chutzpah, what hypocrisy! Israel with over 400 nuclear devices, with submarines that carry nuclear tipped missiles and intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching Washington DC!
When the American Jewish Zionist multi-billionaire Sheldon Adelson and his Israeli wife Miri went to the cesspool and dark alleys of American politics looking for a candidate they could invent for their United States of Israel, they could not find any one better than Newt Gingrich
Poor President Barack Obama, Uncle Shlomo, it seems the litmus tests of his loyalty to Israel and Israel First is a war on Iran.
With the world in such an economic, financial, political, and social mess, as it has been for a number of years, one has to wonder what the role, purpose and mission of the World Economic Forum.
When I was growing up in Palestine, I remember the first picture I ever took with my family, and it was a picture in clothes we got from a Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere (CARE) package.
Check out these videos of Israeli soldiers at a Machsom (Security Checkpoints). The behavior of these soldiers raises serious questions about “Jewish values” promoted by the Israeli state.
One would think that out of all the countries and people, albeit “invented” in the Middle East, the Palestinians would be leading the way to a full Arab Spring, Fall, Summer and Winter until the armed and colonial Jewish Occupation comes to an end. Surprisingly, this has not been the case.
The other night I had late dinner with a friend visiting from out of town. I went home and crashed after a long day. What a night it was—I had America’s nightmare!
America has great attributes and achievements to export to the Arab world such as advances in medical, science, and information technology, excellent systems of higher education, and a truly generous population that contributes hundreds of billions to social causes.
We have paid an obscene price for the so-called war on terror, which has benefited none other than 1) Israel and 2) American energy corporations.
We all know who “invented” the Palestinians, what we do not know is who “invented” Newt Gingrich?
Our money went into the accounts of Wall Street investment executives and bankers…into political contributions
Presidential and congressional elections are a very busy time for the “surgical units” of the American –Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
I will always remember with fond memory and cherish those years I served this county, my country of choice and will always remember the friends I lost in the war
This “Palestinian leadership” sitting in Ramallah is desperate, desperate to reinvent itself, desperate to keep its self in business of managing the Jewish Occupation.
The Occupy Wall Street movement should not have come as a surprise to official America and to Main Street.
While the US did not sponsor Mouamar Gaddafi in certain periods of his regime, it did engage him and according to certain reports facilitated his coming to power.
We are angry at a political system that is so corrupted by money, greed, bad faith, contempt for the people and citizens with special breed of political and media consultants who sell us scruples idiots and demagogues as choices.
More than any other time in the history of Palestine, there is an urgent and critical need for regime change.
America that is much beloved by people and the world is of the past. Since Ronald Reagan took over and his alliance with the Christian fundamentalist rights and the American Zionist Jews all that changed. America changed inside and outside.
The Arab Spring in Egypt, in Tunisia, in Yemen, in Syria certainly in Libya must be very disappointing to those American and Israeli Zionist NeoCons who took charge of the post September 11th defining Islam and Arabs as born terrorists and defining Islam as the faith of terror.
