''Not again'': Eyewitness Joe Smith writes about the killing of Tom Hurndall "There was one boy, however, that Tab noticed was too frightened to move. Instinctually, he quickly removed him from the area, as he observed shots land around the small and fragile innocent. After successfully evacuating him, he was about to leave when he noticed two small girls down in front of the roadblock, right in the line of fire. He was going to help them escape when the Israeli soldier in the tower took his aim, and fired a large calibre sniper bullet directly into Tab's head.&q...

Michael Neumann: Address security concerns by switching sides in the Israel/Arab conflict Only one fundamental shift in US policy can both undo the damage being done, and rapidly address America's security concerns. Proposing this shift is the only way the left can address the real concerns of the American people. The left needs to demand, as it should have demanded a long time ago, that the US switch sides in the Israel/Palestine conflict. This means that the US should ally itself with the Palestinians and with the Muslim world, against Israel, to secure prompt, unconditional and...

Dave Kersting: Racism inherent in 'Jewish State.' Equality should not be negotiable The major "anti-war" organizations, such as A.N.S.W.E.R. and United for Peace, have have also shown morally fatal compromise with racist violence, in their systematic downplay of the Zionist ethnic-cleansing at the root and core of US-Israeli provocation and Middle East destabilization. Nearly all the old-school "anti-war" leadership groups have either been dominated by Zionists, or have made the explicitly racist error of silencing any anti-racist position, which might &q...

Pictures of Thomas Hurndall. Shot in the head by the IDF murderers Friday, April 11, 2003. Hurndall, age 21, from Manchester, England, had been standing between Israeli troops and Palestinian children when Israeli soldiers opened fire, according to a fellow activist from the International Solidarity Movement who witnessed the scene. He was declared brain dead after arrival at a Gaza hospital. I guess it's now open season on Arabs and anyone who cares about them....

Israeli Troops Murder British ISM Activist After Telling Palestinians To Learn From Iraq 
The US is massacring thousands of Iraqis leaving cities without clean water and allowing hospitals to get looted while protecting the Iraqi Oil Ministry. Israel has told the Palestinians to "learn from Iraq" which suggests that IDF attacks on civilians will only get worse. Today the IDF killed a citizen of the UK who was in Gaza to promote peace. Everyday innocent Palestinians die and the world hardly notices....

Hypocrisy and Racism of Iraq War I find it amazing that you use a tank to respond to a sniper at a building you know houses journalists. And the excuse that "We are at war" doesn't seem to hold water when non-Arab civilians are killed, such as in Israel.
I can only imagine what would happen to any American official who dared respond to news about a killing of Israeli civilians with the arrogant, insensitive response, "We are at war." The Israeli-controlled American media would have their heads and spec...

Robert Fisk: Is there some element in the US military that wants to take out journalists? The Americans responded with what all the evidence proves to be a straightforward lie. General Buford Blount of the US 3rd Infantry Division – whose tanks were on the bridge – announced that his vehicles had come under rocket and rifle fire from snipers in the Palestine Hotel, that his tank had fired a single round at the hotel and that the gunfire had then ceased. The general's statement, however, was untrue....
