Israel, Right or Wrong

Paul J. Balles explains why Zionist scaremongering and distorting of history, as manifested in the writing of Israel apologists such as the Washington Post’s Richard Cohen, only increases fear by Jews and disdain by others.

(BAHRAIN) - "If I were an Israeli, I'd be worried. If I were an Arab, I'd be insulted. If I were a critic only of Israel, I'd be ashamed." Thus concluded Richard Cohen in The Washington Post.

What Cohen would be worried about is what he perceives as anti-Semitism in the Arab world, fuelled in World War II by the Muslim cleric Haj Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem.

Military Action Against Gadaffi is Not the Solution

Bottom line: military action in Libya is not the solution nor is it the solution in Afghanistan/Pakistan or Iraq.

(SEOUL, Korea) - The no fly zone has allowed America and the coalition forces to attack Gaddafi forces, if Gaddafi retaliates with NATO causalities this can very possibly lead to a full scale war and Libya can very quickly become the next Iraq, but even worse than Iraq and will become a terrorist breeding ground, allowing Terrorist groups to Network from Libya and attack Israel.

Israel will become the biggest causality of this ridiculously stupid move by the UN approving a no fly zone.

Europe Turns Against Israel

It is embarrassing how lame academia has become.

(LONDON) - A German think-tank affiliated with the Social Democratic Party issued a new report last week that revealed “high levels of anti-Semitism in Germany, Poland and Hungary.”

A researcher from the University of Bielefeld told The Jerusalem Post that the study showed a strong presence of anti-Semitism linked with Israel and is hidden behind criticism of Israel, and is not neutral.

Gaddafi`s Fake Supporters and Fake Casualties of Western Air Strikes

Painful truths about the conflict raging in Libya.

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - Libyan police reports about casualties from the western air strikes are a complete lie.

We do know that telephone and internet communications with Libya have been cut off by Libyan dictator Mu’ammar Gaddafi.

The West is Doing the Right Thing in Libya

Libya’s wellbeing can be safeguarded only by having a democratic, accountable government.

(LONDON) - As a Libyan who has witnessed at first hand how the Gaddafi regime evolved into its present murderous self, I can only welcome the start of this military action.

My only regret is that it did not take place earlier and thereby spare the lives of thousands of innocent civilians murdered by Gaddafi’s hired hands.

Battle for Libya

Battle against Gaddafi...

(PASO ROBLES, Calif.) - Here’s a thought that could more quickly put an end to the forces loyal to Gaddaffy against the insurgency:

Avoid the armament of pro-Gaddafi troops, and go after the source of their remuneration. If the pro-forces aren’t paid, I’ll bet they will stop fighting. It’s a rule among mercenaries; no gold, no fight! And that ought to open the flood gates for the insurgents to capture Tripoli with little or no further assistance from the International Community. Isn’t that what we really want?
