Israel Continues to Refuse Humanitarian Aid to Jenin
No wonder the American papers say there is no massacre -- the Israelis are offering "guided tours" of Jenin, but denying access to aid organizations and human rights workers. THIS IS A HORRIFIC CRIME SCENE AND ISRAEL IS DESPERATE TO COVER IT UP...

Israel Frames Arab Knesset Member Azmi Bishara
Israel is not only viciously attacking Palestinians in Palestine, but it is also framing members of the Knesset (MK) who represent the 1 million Palestinians in Israel, including Azmi Bishara, who has had his parliamentary immunity removed so he could be tried for political actions....

Over 100,000 Rally in Washington to Support
Israel (the multimillion $ funded machine)
To put this in perspective - this is not 100,000 ‘ordinary people’ coming out to demonstrate. This was an extremely well organized campaign funded by a milti-million dollar pro-Israeli coalition. The people who attend are a large number of extremely well known people - Israel's former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Rudolph W. Giuliani, Elie Wiesel and Natan Sharansky, Representative Dick Armey of Texas, etc....

April 15: World Press & Witnesses on Israeli War Crimes
The world press and eyewitnesses continue to document the evidence in writing and in audio from radio programs of the war crimes of Israel, the US puppet state, protecting US oil profits from any nationalization movement and any other progressive struggle. The murders, torture, imprisonments, looting and destruction of civilian homes and the horrors of 24-hour curfew, depriving cities of food, water, electricity, medical care and burial services are being recorded....

RED CROSS FUCKS-UP

How the Media Smears Israel
The fact that Palestinian violence is aimed at Israeli liberals sitting in Tel-Aviv cafes (rather than, say, at Israeli settlers or soldiers) is seen by Israelis as proof that all this is not about the Israeli occupation, but about the existence of Israel. The Palestinians were already offered a state but they want the Right of Return, which means Israel's right not to exist as a Jewish state....

THE INVASION
If Shavit insists, I am ready to oblige: Israel, this Jewish apartheid state, deserves to disappear. Its sovereign institutions indeed should be dismantled. And its supporters elsewhere turn themselves into participants of the war crimes, and into combatants to their own peril. They would not be able to claim their neutrality. The chasm is not an ethnic or religious, as proven by Jerry Levin of Alabama....

Palestinians and the American People
The Palestinian people have no grudge against the American public. We never did. As a matter of fact, if one resists the media spin and takes a closer look at what the Palestinians have been struggling for during the last two weeks--let alone the last thirty-five years--it will be revealed that the Palestinian Intifada is a very American struggle. After all, it is a struggle for national independence, civil liberties, human rights, as well as a struggle to establish an open market in an in...

April 14-15:Tell Congress No US Aid to Israel
April 15 is Tax Day. Your tax dollars are being wasted at $8 million per day so Israel can murder Palestinians to protect US oil profits. It is long overdue that you inform Congress that you want all US aid to Israel cut now and you want your tax dollars spent on social services, schools, housing, medical care and public transportation here at home. Their phone numbers are listed in your phone book and at http://www.house.gov and http://www.senate.gov/...
