Amira Hass in Haaretz explains: How embarrassing. While solidarity activists are planning new protests against the blockade of the Gaza Strip, the Hamas government is adding to limitations on Palestinians’ freedom of movement. One might justifiably ask: What are a few high school students Hamas refuses to allow to travel to the United States to…

Wikileaks reveals Israeli company loving “war on terror” (aka targeting Muslims makes us good money)
9/11 happens. An already large privatised security industry massively expands. Israel is the supposed expert on such matters (being good at racial profiling and killing Arabs whilst damaging the security prospects and future of the state). Wikileaks releases a document from March 2008 that highlights just one company looking to make a fortune from this…
Dishonest media continues lies over BDS to smear support for Palestine as anti-Semitic
The rot continues in Murdoch’s Australian. After Greens Senator Lee Rhiannon defended her right to be pro-Palestinian and not anti-Semitic (a leap of logic only made by desperate Zionists and hack media), a flurry of letters ensued. This was yesterday: While those behind the boycott of Israeli products will claim that this is not anti-Semitic,…
Robert Fisk remembers the war mongers who longed for Muslim blood post 9/11
And the veteran Middle East journalist utters one of the key reasons the terrorist attacks happened; Israeli occupation of Palestine: By their books, ye shall know them. I’m talking about the volumes, the libraries – nay, the very halls of literature – which the international crimes against humanity of 11 September 2001 have spawned. Many…
Newsflash; Greens politician isn’t anti-Semitic but…
Those cuddly fools at Murdoch’s Australian. The paper has spent the last months (and years) finding any way possible to smear individuals who back Palestine. It’s failed miserably, of course, as the rights of Palestinians has never been more understood globally. Last week Greens Senator Lee Rhiannon was forced to write a letter stating she…
This is what Israel loves doing (building illegal colonies)
One more nail in the coffin of the Jewish state: With the end of the building freeze, construction has started up in Judea and Samaria (Yesha) communities. In fact, said the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), building jumped 660% in Judea and Samaria during the first half of 2011, as compared to… the previous… year. While the…
The gospel according to Tony Abbott (future Australian leader?)
The Liberal Opposition leader Tony Abbott is interviewed in today’s Murdoch Australian by Greg Sheridan, a man who never saw a war he didn’t love to watch (from a distance). The message? Abbott loves America, Israel, the West, the “war on terror” and anything Washington asks. That’s not a foreign policy; its sycophancy: I ask…
While the Wikileaks revelations continue, questions to be asked
One: The US and Australia schemed unsuccessfully in 2005 to block Mohamed ElBaradei’s election to a third term as head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), a newly leaked US diplomatic cable shows. Both countries were unhappy with Mr ElBaradei’s “unhelpful” response to Iran’s nuclear program, but the bid to prevent his re-election to…
Memo to Murdoch hacks; supporting Palestine is legitimate so deal with it
In what is becoming a daily obsession by Murdoch’s Australian newspaper, today sees yet more articles comparing BDS for Palestinian rights akin to Nazi Germany, the 9/11 attacks and extremism. First the “news” story: Victorian unions have voted to embroil the ACTU in a controversial campaign targeting Israeli-owned businesses. This came as the Boycott, Divestment…
