Shocking Nakba testimony by former Israeli Palmach fighter

Perhaps the selective amnesia that has afflicted almost all Jewish Israelis has not spared Neumann.

(ROME) - Ethnic cleansing, massacres, colonization and a great deal of racism are all revealed in this shocking video testimony of Amnon Neumann, who fought with the terrorist force (elite of the Haganah), Palmach, during the Nakba of 1948. Neumann reveals that Moshe Dayan expelled Palestinians even as late as 1951!

Despite some moments of remorse, the former member of this terror group tells the interviewer that he refuses to talk about the massacres, in particular, because he participated in them.

Why your government may murder you for profit.

(CINCINNATI) - Terrorism isn’t real. This is a broad generalization but essentially correct. My own estimate, as a “big name” counter-terrorism expert is that 95% of acts we call “terrorism” were done by governments for profit.

Were it not for the dissolution of the free press and secret prisons and mental hospitals for whistleblowers, we wouldn’t have terrorism. Which government? You choose. Of late, Israel has the lead but the US and Russia aren’t far behind. Then we have France and Britain.

Why does this wanton destruction of private Palestinian homes continue unabated?

The comments come after the publishing of a ZimEye article on Zimbabwe’s free circumcision programs.

(LONDON) - Zimbabwe is probably wasting millions from its circumcision drive which critics claim is a waste of money and is also ‘an ineffective and yet invasive attempt to prevent HIV AIDS virus infection’.
