Israel is not a democracy, to think otherwise is complete rediculessness. Zionism is racism. Nazism gave German specials rights, and for the formerly oppressed to now oppress another, has made the world see that Israel (a.k.a. Judenreich) is a racism hyprocritical democracy, similar to America before the civil rights era in the 1960's. Israel won't practice 'real democracy', because with a one person one vote democracy anywhere in the Middle East, Israel would have to use its WMD's (a.k.a....

The road map, in other words, is not about a plan for peace so much as a plan for pacification: it is about putting an end to Palestine as a problem. Hence the repetition of the term "performance" in the document's wooden prose, - in other words, how the Palestinians are expected to behave, almost in the social sense of the word. No violence, no protest, more democracy, better leaders and institutions, all based on the notion that the underlying problem has been the ferocity of Pale...

Seven Apache missiles fired on Palestinian people is the Israeli idea of a cease-fire. If Hamas tries to retaliate (a difficult task against nuclear capable Israel), one can sadly be certain that only then will the international community and media consider that the "cease-fire" has been broken....

Israel's efforts to derail the road map intensified with an attempt to murder Hamas spokesman Abdul 'Aziz al Rantisi, which left him and his son injured, and a woman bystander dead. Later the same day, Ha'aretz reported that Israeli tanks and helicopter gunships fired toward "a Palestinian residential area in the northern Gaza Strip on Tuesday, killing three Palestinians and wounding 30." The three dead were identified as a 16-year-old girl and two 19-year-old men, who lived between...

Dear reader, as Israel slides ever deeper into a morass of racism and ethnic solipsism, please do not lean too heavily on Haaretz to understand how or why this "light unto the nations" has grown so dim....

I have sadly come to the conclusion that, given the scale of the atrocities and collective punishment waged by the Israelis against the Palestinians, I have no choice but to boycott Israeli products. On reflection, whether Jewish or not, you might decide to do the same....

'The Palestinian intifada is a war of national liberation. We Israelis enthusiastically chose to become a colonialist society, ignoring international treaties, expropriating lands, transferring settlers from Israel to the occupied territories, engaging in theft and finding justification for all these activities ... we established an apartheid regime.' Michael Ben-Yair, Israeli attorney general in the1990s, quoted in The Guardian (U.K.), April 11, 2002...
