Israeli Soldiers Killed 15 Protesters in the Same Place They Shot Aysenur Eygi
Month: September 2024
But the romantic farming scenes belie an agenda that goes beyond fruit picking, and is in practice often about patrolling land to cement Jewish-Israeli control — on both sides of the Green Line. It isn’t the only organization doing this: last week, the United States announced sanctions against Hashomer Yosh, another Israeli NGO that sends volunteers to farming outposts in the occupied West Bank and facilitates the violent theft of Palestinian land.

Harris, Trump & the Race to Oblivion

If journalists are not going to accurately mediate politics for their audiences, what is the point of journalism?
Telling the truth about Trump has never been more important

Israel’s IDF will NEVER say “We killed them” but will always say “They Killed them”. If Israeli witnesses stand up and speak accusatively they are conveniently silenced and that list is growing. Where is Noa? Where is the Adbash Family? Where are the witnesses from Kibbutz Be’eri?
Israeli army says ‘high probability’ its strike killed three Gaza captives
Investigations into Israeli soldiers’ attacks on civilians rarely lead to prosecutions.
The killing of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, a 26-year-old American-Turkish activist in the occupied West Bank, has once again brought a troubling issue into the spotlight: Israeli forces targeting civilians.
Despite international condemnation and calls for justice, questions linger about whether anyone will be held accountable.
Why does the Israeli army get away with killing foreign activists?
Current responses to the Gaza “war” would seem to suggest that antisemitism is the priority issue, not the unending slaughter of Palestinians.
Ron Kampeas at the Jewish Telegraph Agency asked both the Harris campaign and the Trump campaign if the candidates considered themselves a Zionist. Neither replied with an easy “yes.”
Asked by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency if Vice President Kamala Harris considers herself a Zionist, a campaign aide replied:
“The Vice President and Governor [Tim] Walz have been strong and longstanding supporters of Israel as a secure, democratic homeland for the Jewish people. They will always ensure Israel can defend itself from threats, including from Iran and Iran-backed terrorists such as Hamas and Hezbollah.”
Told that the first sentence of that response would meet perhaps the most common definition of “Zionist,” the aide replied that beyond the statement she relayed, she had “nothing for you.”
The United Nations’ core human rights agency is mandated to produce a
database, updated annually, of businesses involved in Israel’s unlawful
policy of establishing Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank,
including East Jerusalem.
Time to End Business as Usual in Unlawful West Bank Settlements
The participation of four Israeli arms companies in the Land Forces International Land Defence Exposition in Melbourne is a clear instance of the Australian Government aiding and abetting the commission of an ongoing war crime in Gaza.
Harris is embracing her new right-wing fan club.
Do Kamala Harris’s Neocon Supporters Just Hate Trump, or Is There Something More to Her Appeal?
Thousands of protesters have been out in force in Melbourne last week to disrupt the Land Forces International Land Defence Exposition, where defence companies from around the world are showcasing their latest designs in weapons and technology.

A man in Boston reportedly lit himself on fire outside the Israeli consulate in Boston on September 11, making him the third person in the U.S. to self-immolate outside an Israeli consulate since the Gaza genocide began nearly one year ago.

Renegotiate Trade Agreements
Australia must push to renegotiate trade agreements that lock in neoliberal principles. By removing provisions like ISDS clauses, Australia can regain control over its economic policies and introduce reforms that help its citizens rather than multinational corporations.
Challenge Military Spending
Australians can call for a reduction in defence spending, especially in areas that directly help the U.S. military-industrial complex. By reallocating these funds to healthcare, education, and social services, the government can begin to address the needs of its citizens instead of prioritizing foreign military
Walling Off the Truth
Journalists in the US and UK have paid little attention to what is happening to their colleagues in Palestine. It is another indicator of the racial hierarchy by which western media assign the status of victimhood (see Sussman 2022). The state and mainstream media collaboration of the US and UK with the Israeli propaganda apparatuses and their operatives in Britain and America make a farce of the notion of “freedom of the press.”

Israel was created as a rampart of “Western civilisation” in the barbarous east, but now the rampart is at risk of being overwhelmed.
A wave of censorship – Israel is the last collapsing rampart of ‘Western civilisation’
To hell with the “International Rule of Law” – praise the Lord and send more munitions, all in the name of “defence”.
It is hard to decide, taking the long view, which is the greater iniquity: the almost unspeakable atrocities being cast by the Zionist Government and the virulently pro-Zionist IDF upon the Palestinians, or the repercussions that will inevitably blight the future of Israel and Jews world-wide for many decades.
Appeasing Benjamin Netanyahu and his Zionist coterie is an appalling, inexcusable, malignant, immoral and utterly stupid action on the part of every government guilty of such malfeasance.
Of which the current Australian Government is one. Poor Fellow My Country, indeed.
What will it take for our government to stop parroting the ludicrous assertion that Israel’s genocidal erasure of Gaza and its people constitutes self-defence? When will our government fulfil its obligations under the Genocide Convention, and take meaningful, concrete measures to prevent further Palestinian deaths and ensure Israel’s accountability for its grotesque violations of international law?
In addition to billions in weapons, the U.S. military is renovating an air base in the south of Israel, according to a new contract.
A recent investigation by The Intercept disclosed that Site 512 is just one of more than 60 U.S. bases, garrisons, or shared foreign facilities in the Middle East. These sites range from small combat outposts to massive air bases in 13 countries: Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen
