Holy Land 5: "The Nelson Mandelas of the 21th century"!

26-01-2011 22:42

In 2001 the Bush administration shut the foundation down, although no direct links have been found with Hamas. Guilty by association. Israël and the FBI were folowing HLF from 1993 onwards and harrassing the members of HLF.

Wikileaks Cables on Israel's Gaza Onslaught

20-01-2011 01:13

CounterPunch has accessed Wikileaks’ file of cables on Israel’s Gaza assault  http://www.counterpunch.org/wikigazacables.html two years ago (Operation Cast Lead, December 27, 2008 through January 18, 2009). Though the cables often simply rehash Israeli press reporting, providing little new insight into Israel’s attack or the planning behind it, they show with pitiless clarity the U.S. government to be little more than a handmaiden and amanuensis of the Israeli military machine.

Past Is Present: Settler Colonialism In Palestine

17-01-2011 09:57

For over a century, Zionism has subjected Palestine and Palestinians to a structural and violent form of destruction, dispossession, land appropriation, and erasure in the pursuit of a new colonial Israeli society.
