textIsrael is the Tail that Wags the Dog by michael neumann
A lot of people have heard the phrase "the tail that wags the dog," but very few know where this came from. It comes from Arab journalists back in the '70s in describing the way the US does whatever Israel wants....

textPro-Israeli Groups Target Politicians Who Call for Balance in our Foreign Policy by Alexander Cockburn
McKinney sees what happened to Hilliard, and that American Jewish money is pumping up Majette's challenge. So she goes to Arab-American groups to try to raise money to fight back. This allows Tom Edsall to attack her in the Post as being in receipt of money from pro-terror Muslims. Lots of nasty looking Arab/Muslim names suddenly fill Edsall's stories. ...and when furious blacks start denouncing the role of outside Jewish money in the onslaughts on Hilliard and McKinney... there'll be an aval...

textThe Intifada is dead, long live the Intifada by Gabriel Ash
The peace with Egypt, signed in 1977, resulted from Isreal's strategic need to isolate the dirty war against the Palestinians from the larger Arab context, of which Egypt was the leading power. The move was successful, allowing Israel to invade Lebanon in 1982 without worrying about a Southern front. The invasion itself was a move to undermine the political pressure to recognize and negotiate with Palestinians over land....

textIs the US Media Biased When It Comes To the Middle East? by commondreams
When Daniel Pearl was killed by Islamists in Pakistan, the US media reported it as a horrific crime -- which was correct because it was. When Israeli Soldiers shot Suraida Saleh to death while she was holding her 9 month old baby in her harms, their was not even a peep out of the US media. It did not matter that she was a Palestinian American that was born in the US. Her family was not invited to speak on Larry King Live on CNN. This one small case points out the extreme double standard by...

textBefore Israel was Our Ally, We had NO Enemies in the Middle East by Charley Reese
We are in this mess because the Bush administration foreign policy is based on lies. It is based on lies in order to avoid the politically incorrect truth that our problem with terrorism is solely the result of our outrageously unjust policy of blind support of Israel. Neither Bush nor Congress wants to admit this, so they come up with absurd lies that terrorists are jealous of our free...

textLanguage Of The Middle East by Charley Reese
How little value they place on Palestinian life is illustrated by a sentence an Israeli court gave a Jewish settler. His sentence was a fine and community service. What was his crime? He had knocked down a 10-year-old Palestinian boy, put his booted foot on the child's neck and beaten him to death with the butt of his military pistol....

textCould Mossad have sabotaged the EgyptAir flight that went down in 1999? by Martin McLaughlin
There were 33 high ranking Egyptian officers on board. I remember watching ABC news at the time and was told that the Egyptian pilot had said "I have made my decision now." After Egyptian investigators listened to the voice recorders, that quote was nowhere to be found. Why was that lie televised and why was it never corrected -- leaving the impression that the Egyptian pilot really had committed suicide....

textDe-Nazify the West Bank by Caroline B. Glick
The television camera lens moves with seeming effortlessness from the pictures of suffering and death at the Hebrew University to the carnival in Gaza City, where thousands take to the streets in celebration of the pictures from Jerusalem. Gazing at the revelers on the screen, one strains one's eyes to find an expression of shame, guilt, or remorse on the faces in the crowd. One unconsciously prays to discern anything that would show that those in front of the camera are there by accident or ...

textHatred of Arabs Is So Commonplace, It Usually Goes Unnoticed by Steven Salaita
Yet the extremism about which I speak isn't actually extreme, at least not in the customary definition of the word. The man who wishes all Palestinians would die is better embraced by American analysts than those who argue in favor of international law (i.e., against Israel's occupation and in support of the right to return). With minor variations, decorated commentators George Will, Charles Krauthammer, William Safire, and scores of others say the same thing. They are, in short, odious...
