Palestinian Solidarity Campaign disrupts Israeli Concert. Yeah!!!

Decent people don't include Zionists who rob and murder Palestinians. Israel will never be a "decent" nation so long as it continues to rob, oppress and murder Palestinians.

Actually, there is good historical evidence to support your claim. In 1953, MI6 backed by Central Intelligence, overthrew the constitutional government of Iran.

The main reason negotiations so commonly fail, is that American Presidents don't seem to care that Israel's governments negotiate in bad faith, and their experience is that they don't have to negotiate in good faith. The west has taught Israel that it can get away with playing these games.

Jaw Jaw means putting pressure on Israel to talk to Hamas. The only precondition should be an immediate ceasefire. All this talk of Hamas' stance on Israel's right to exist is just a smokescreen. A five year ceasefire would be a good start.

Once again, an injustice done to one does not legitimize injustice done to another. Sneering about how aboriginal Americans were treated does not alter that the sins of Europe before and during the Second World War do not justify the injustices done by Zionists in Palestine. Prating in a shallow manner about realpolitik doesn't alter that the situation will only be resolved when a significant approach is made to justice for the Palestinians.

I wasn't going to post this, since it is sort of inflammatory for arguably good reason, but, hey -

from the San Francisco Chronicle today (yes, foof, there is another city or two out there besides New York) - but getty photos are all over the press.

No, your paranoia, resentment and hatreds notwithstanding, injustice done to one does not legitimie injustice done to another.

As for power politics, if Israel one day pays the price of the arrogance and hubris of its successive governments, i don't doubt i'll be able to hear you howling from here.

Do you really think that this image is inflammatory?

The young girl is alive and notwithstanding the trauma of having all of her fanily's possessions thrown into a pile, it hardly compares to the trauma of Israeli settlers having their children gunned down by Palestinian zealots.

The settlers are in the wrong place.

Substantially more Palestinian children have been gunned down by Israeli zealots than the other way round.

...because he is just like you, a hate-filled right-wing troglodyte. ...

First off that photo looks dreadfully staged.

Another letter from prominent Jewish mp Gerald Kaufman in today's Guardian.

Quote:

President Abbas is to be congratulated on persisting in applying for Palestinian statehood at the UN (Report, 9 September), despite all the pressure and blackmail trying to force him not to. The quartet has never done anything meaningful to give the Palestinians their independence. If the US uses its veto at the security council, this will prove the smug windbag Obama to be the puppet of Aipac. The hypocrisy of those countries which vote against or abstain at the general assembly will similarly be exposed. This brave Palestinian move will change the entire environment of the Middle East and tell the Israelis that they must negotiate meaningfully if they wish to be one of the states in a two-state solution.

ISA 20:4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and
the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their
buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.

And as soon as the Palestinians join the ICC, it will be time for Israel to start sending Palestinian terrorists to The Hague for prosecution.

Now that's for the first time, I really applause here: you suggest that Israel should become a state party to the Statute of the Court - great.
