Israel`s Nuclear Whistle Blower`s June 6 Appeal Seeking Revocation of Citizenship as the Way to Freedom from Israel

"This administration tells me I am not allowed to speak to foreigners, the Media, and the world." - Vanunu

(JERUSALEM) - Eileen Fleming, author, reporter and now a candidate for US House of Representatives from Florida, began documenting the ongoing saga of Mordechai Vanunu, Israel's Nuclear Whistle Blower, in June 2005.

In 1987, Vanunu was convicted of espionage and treason. Fleming contends he was only guilty of revealing Israel's nuclear Facility at Dimona.

Response to the 60 Minutes Segment on Israel

This program was an extreme disappointment. I thought 60 Minutes had more integrity and courage.

(WEST KINGSTON, R.I.) - On Sunday 60 Minutes did a rather disgraceful segment to please Zionists. I was sufficiently disgusted to send the following hasty response via their web site.

Tonight’s segment on Israel (May 20, 2012) gave a totally distorted picture of the Middle East conflict.

Important Call to Action: A Message From Moira Jilani

None of our children are safe in a world in which the children of Gaza can be imprisoned and bombed.

(GAZA) - My beloved husband, Ziad Jilani, was executed by Israeli Border Policeman, Maxim Vinogradov on June 11, 2010.

There is undeniable evidence that my husband was lying unarmed and wounded on the ground, posing no threat when Israeli Border Policeman Maxim Vinogradov shot him point blank in the head.

The Dictator-A Film Review by Gilad Atzmon

(LONDON) - On the face of it, Baron Cohen’s The Dictator is a horrid film. It is vulgar, it isn’t funny and if it has five good jokes in it, they appear in the two minute official trailer.

In short, save your time and money – unless of course, you are interested in Jewish identity politics and neurosis.

Nakba Actions

As I say to my students: do your own homework because you should form your own opinion based on facts and solid information.

(BETHLEHEM) - For the global community, there is nothing more consequential than the catastrophic failure after World War II to learn the correct lessons.

Instead, the world continued with the business of war as usual (and war is business). One of the most destabilizing forces in the world was created and sustained for 100 years before the USA took on nurturing it after WWII. I am of course speaking of Zionism.

The Incompatibility of Nakba and Neutrality

Al-Nakba is the Arabic word for “the catastrophe”.

(CHICAGO) - Neve Gordon, a 47-year-old Israeli-born professor and author, greeted this year’s 64th anniversary of the Nakba with an essay for CounterPunch that included this revealing confession:

"I first heard about the Nakba in the late 1980s, while I was an undergraduate student of philosophy at Hebrew University. This, I believe, is a revealing fact, particularly since, as a teenager, I was a member of Peace Now and was raised in a liberal home..."

Gaza`s Ark: Building Hope

With your support, the work on Gaza's Ark will start this summer.

(BEARSVILLE, NY) - The Canadian Boat to Gaza, in cooperation, with international initiatives in the US, Australia and other countries, is launching a new initiative to challenge the illegal and inhumane Israeli blockade of Gaza.

This new initiative: Gaza's Ark, will build a boat in Gaza, using existing resources.

Israel as Popular as North Korea According to BBC Poll

74% of Spanish respondents (an increase of 8% from last year) and 56% of French respondents (an increase of 9%), see Israel in a negative light.

(LONDON) - Ha'aretz reported yesterday that, “Israel, Iran, Pakistan and North Korea were ranked most negatively by 24,000 people surveyed in an annual BBC poll.”

It would appear that in spite of the extensive Hasbara campaign and the Jewish lobby buying every morally lax living politician, people of the world increasingly see Israel for what it is.

Nakba Anniversary

We now have 12 universities inside occupied Palestinian.

(BETHLEHEM) - On this 64th anniversary of the Nakba we mourn the ethnic cleansing that began in 1948 and that continues today with silent transfer, home demolitions, land confiscation and more.

But we also celebrate an amazing resilience and success of the Palestinian endogenous people against incredible odds:
