You might wish to call for an end to Israel’s 35-year illegal occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Or you might invoke international law, U.N. resolutions, or the Geneva Conventions. At the very least you might wish to support the deployment of international observers in the region....

About the Deir Yassin massacre which was one of the many massacres designed to force the Palestinians out and allow Israelis to call it "a land for a people for a people without a land." Only difference between this one and all the others is that this one was well documented....

On Oct. 6, an antiwar movement seemed to have blossomed in New York. A sea of people -- newspaper estimates ran from 10,000 to 20,000 -- filled Central Park's East Meadow to protest a possible U.S. invasion of Iraq. And yes, there were the usual suspects, like the girl from the Revolutionary Communist Youth Brigade who donned a kaffiyeh and hurled red-faced imprecations against capitalist tyranny....

The Wichita, Kan., trial of two brothers charged with murdering five people and wounding a sixth in a December 2000 crime spree has local residents and prominent black leaders wondering why the national media have been relatively silent in the matter....

On the eve of Saddam Hussein's re-election bid, the most recent polls of the Iraqi electorate show that the race is still too close to call, with Saddam garnering over 99% support in Tuesday's upcoming 'up-or-down' election....

JIMMY CARTER on Friday won the Nobel Peace Prize that he had lobbied for relentlessly for more than 20 years. (This column has seen no reports that Mr. Carter, 78, hired the two Norwegian public relations firms paid by America’s only other living former Democratic President Bill Clinton to privately lobby committee members to give Clinton the $1 million Peace Prize.)...

As cities around the country hold traditional Columbus Day celebrations, America-haters on today's college campuses will be protesting Christopher Columbus' alleged genocidal megalomania. Mainstream Americans correctly perceive Columbus as the most important explorer in the history of the world, but Leftists in academia see Columbus as Adolf Hitler's evil twin. Why do they hold this psychotic worldview? Though Leftists whine and moan about imaginary genocide, the truth is quite simple: They w...

It can’t be done without attending to Palestine. For years, I would say: Palestine/Israel must be transformed into a democratic state, where Jews and Palestinians will live as equals. But the Democratic State wouldn’t be a Jewish state, people would object. The Jewish state is as bad as the Aryan state, and whoever rejects the Aryan state, should reject the Jewish state, as well. Without the Jewish state, the Jews of the US and other lands will return to their normal life, will fo...

If you want to see a virtual blueprint of the world as it will be when the neocons get through with it, you have merely to take a look at the second half of Ledeen's book, wherein his plans for the Middle East are laid out. Iran, Iraq, Syria, Egypt – all will fall before the power of what he calls America's "creative destruction." That tens of thousands of lives will be destroyed – along with the cultural and material foundations of a civilization far older than our own ...

What if, for example, Ariel Sharon seizes the opportunity of a U.S. war on Iraq to drive all Arabs out
of Israel and the occupied territories? This is not only possible but probable, given Israel’s record of
exploiting American preoccupations elsewhere and Sharon’s special penchant for murderous aggression. So
much for the Palestinian state Bush says he believes in. Israel already has the weapons of mass destruction
Bush accuses Saddam Hussein of coveting, and Shar...

But Bush forgot to mention that almost all the resolutions are years old deflating the immediacy of their enforcement now; that other nations including the US and Israel have not complied with UN resolutions; that the business of enforcement is the responsibility of the UN membership, not the prerogative of a single nation, super power or not; and that opening the door to resolution enforcement requires equity of treatment against all nations that have defied the UN....

A small Gaza girl eyed me with a dark face, suspicious but curious, the last time I walked this area. When I asked to take her picture she simply stood still with the same brooding expression on her face as I clicked the camera. A year later and here she is playing among the ruins; taller and longer haired but with the same knowing look. When she sees me she stops and we both flash a quick smile of recognition. She's not dead, I think....
