Supporters of IsraelIf you listen to supporters of Israel, they essentially act as if Americans criticizing the Jewish nation is akin to committing treason against the United States.

Sorry, folks. Israel, no matter how close an ally of America, should not expect the United States to act as if everything it does is fine.

The decision by the Israeli government to announce the building of 1,600 homes in the disputed area of East Jerusalem while Vice President Joe Biden was in the country to move forward the Israeli-Palestinian peace process was a slap to the United States. (more…)

Israel Land GrabContinuing to build settlements (illegal settlements) in the West Bank, and even housing in disputed East Jerusalem, is sheer madness. Yasir Arafat accepted that Jewish suburbs there would be under Israeli sovereignty in any peace deal that would also make Arab parts of East Jerusalem the Palestinian capital. Israel’s planned housing expansion now raises questions about whether Israel will ever be willing to concede a Palestinian capital in Arab neighborhoods of East Jerusalem — a big problem.

Israel has already bitten off plenty of the West Bank. If it wants to remain a Jewish democracy, its only priority now should be striking a deal with the Palestinians that would allow it to swap those settlement blocs in the West Bank occupied by Jews for an equal amount of land from Israel for the Palestinians and then reap the benefits — economic and security — of ending the conflict.

You cant really be surprised at a conservative magazine spewing anti Latin American rants on its pages or online. remember , they are mainly republican/conservatives writers and if you look at the republican rants from the GOP and with  its xenophobia against immigrants you would not be as surprised by it.

Fake Catholic Tony Blair Working For Israel

Israel has deliberately sabotaged peace in the region with its murder . It is for this reason that, should Interpol’s’ investigations reveal that Mossad was involved in the assassination of Al-Mabhouh, Israel should immediately apologize to the Emirate and to the people of Israel for deceiving them.

In spite of being frequently hailed as the only democracy in the Middle East, Israel does not believe in trials, judgments, convictions and sentencing – it acts as judge, jury and executioner.

And now the fake new Catholic Tony Blair said on Saturday he hoped Israelis and Palestinians would resume peace negotiations within weeks. (more…)
