  • Obama Warned on Syrian Intel
    9 September 2013

    Exclusive: Despite the Obama administration’s supposedly “high confidence” regarding Syrian government guilt over the Aug. 21 chemical attack near Damascus, a dozen former U.S. military and intelligence officials are telling President Obama that they are picking up information that undercuts the Official Story.
    MEMORANDUM FOR: The President
    FROM: Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS)
    SUBJECT: Is Syria a Trap?
    Precedence: IMMEDIATE
    We regret to inform you that some of (…)

  • Mahmoud Abbas and Barack Obama: tragic hero vs political prostitute
    24 September 2011, by Uri Avnery

    A wonderful speech. A beautiful speech.
    The language expressive and elegant. The arguments clear and convincing. The delivery flawless.
    A work of art. The art of hypocrisy. Almost every statement in the passage concerning the Israeli-Palestinian issue was a lie. A blatant lie: the speaker knew it was a lie, and so did the audience.
    It was Obama at his best, Obama at his worst.
    Being a moral person, he must have felt the urge to vomit. Being a pragmatic person, he knew that he had to (…)

  • The End of History
    20 October 2010, by Layla Anwar

    The Universe, the Cosmos, Awareness, Consciousness, Love, Hate, Friendship, Life...the triumph of Love over Death....All is made of many levels...so is History.
    There is the Beginning and there is the End. There is the beginning of Civilization and there is the end of Civilization...and there are the gray areas in between, the pangs of Death and Rebirth.
    History’s many levels are made of beginnings and ends...and those gray areas. Some beginnings illuminate the world and some of its (…)

  • State of recognition
    24 September 2011, by Joseph Massad

    Whether the UN grants the PA status as a state or refuses to do so, either outcome will be in Israel’s interest.
    What is at stake in Barack Obama’s vehement refusal to recognise Palestine as a mini-state with a disfigured geography and no sovereignty, and his urging the world community not to recognise it while threatening the Palestinians with retribution? What is the relationship between Obama’s refusal to recognise Palestine and his insistence on recognising Israel’s right to be a (…)

  • The Fake Moderation of America’s Moderate Mideast Allies
    4 February 2011, by Asli Bâli, Aziz Rana

    As the Mubarak regime turns to violence in a vain attempt to repress the peaceful protests that have swept Egypt’s streets for over ten days, the risks associated with current U.S. strategy for Egypt and the wider region continue to grow. In its response to the events, the Obama administration has subtly shifted its message, incrementally increasing pressure on the regime over the last week. But the more important story is the remarkable continuities reflected in the administration’s (…)

  • عودة «الاخوان المسلمين» الى الحضن الاميركي
    9 تموز (يوليو) 2011, بقلم ريمون عطاالله

    يجمع المراقبون على انه لم يعد سراً ان ادارة الرئيس باراك اوباما في واشنطن تجري اتصالات ومفاوضات مع جماعة «الاخوان المسلمين» في مصر، وربما في غير مصر. هذه الاتصالات تجري على صعيد البيت الابيض نفسه، وعلى صعيد وزارة الخارجية، وعلى صعيد اجهزة الاستخبارات الوطنية. لكن هذا الموضوع ما زال مدار خلاف داخل الولايات المتحدة وداخل مصر، خصوصاً مع شباب «ثورة ٢٥ يناير» التي اطاحت نظام الرئيس حسني مبارك.
    برزت ملامح هذا الخلاف في واشنطن خلال مناقشة لجنة الاستخبارت الوطنية في مجلس النواب قبل اربعة اشهر (…)

  • Le lobby pro-israélien et la politique étrangère américaine
    17 novembre 2007, par John Mearsheimer, Stephen Walt

    Le pouvoir politique du lobby ne vient pas de son poids sur les déclarations des candidats à la présidentielle pendant la campagne, mais de son influence considérable sur la politique étrangère américaine, en particulier au Moyen-orient. Les interventions américaines dans cette zone hypersensible ont d’importantes conséquences sur les habitants des quatre coins de la planète, et surtout ceux de cette région. Voyez seulement à quel point la guerre en Irak de l’administration Bush a affecté le (…)

  • Israel’s Constant Crisis
    31 December 2008, by Justin Raimondo

    As the Israelis continue to pound Gaza, killing Hamas cadre, traffic cops, and civilians alike, Americans shake their heads and wonder: why can’t they all just get along? Why must we be involved? The answer to both questions lies in understanding the peculiar nature of the Israeli state and its "special relationship" to the West, specifically the U.S.
    Defenders of the Israeli government and its policies often complain that Israel just wants to be treated as a "normal country," like any (…)

  • Netanyahu, Obama et l’épreuve du changement
    8 mai 2009, par Emilie Sueur

    Le 30 avril, Barack Obama passait le cap des 100 jours de sa présidence. Chiffre symbole qui a donné lieu à toute une série d’analyses sur la politique du nouveau président. Le vrai test néanmoins, le cap au passage duquel il sera intéressant de juger la politique étrangère d’Obama et sa volonté, revendiquée lors de la campagne, de « changement » par rapport à l’administration Bush, aura lieu dans quelques jours, lors de sa rencontre, prévue à la mi-mai, avec le Premier ministre israélien, (…)

  • Logique de purification ethnique à Gaza
    6 janvier 2009, par Dominique Eddé

    Quel est le bénéfice attendu par Israël, au terme de cette énième entreprise de bombardement, "Plomb durci" ? Sécuriser les citoyens israéliens. Anéantir le Hamas. Connaît-on un cas de figure ayant prouvé, par le passé, que la méthode pouvait marcher ?
    L’opération "Raisins de la colère", accompagnée du massacre de Cana, au Liban, en 1996 ? Elle a renforcé le Hezbollah et s’est soldée par le retrait des troupes israéliennes du Liban sud en 2000. L’opération "Rempart à Jénine", au printemps (…)
