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

(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.

INDIA: Three Men Tortured and Killed in Controversial Encounter with 23rd Assam Rifles

Human Rights Ambassador William Nicholas Gomes writes to the Prime Minister of India over military murders of surrendered combatants.

(SALEM) - Another letter of appeal over appalling treatment of human beings in India; this one worse than most; the murder of surrendered disarmed prisoners.

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.
