• La reconstruction de Gaza tributaire de la politique
  2 mars 2009
  Amertume et résignation : les deux termes résument l’état d’esprit de la délégation européenne appelée à participer, lundi 2 mars, à la conférence de soutien à l’économie palestinienne et à la reconstruction de la bande de Gaza, à Charm el-Cheikh, en Egypte. Après l’offensive militaire israélienne de trois semaines, cette réunion des donateurs présidée par l’Egypte et la Norvège réunira, outre l’Union européenne (UE), l’ensemble des bailleurs de fonds internationaux qui viennent en aide aux (…)
• My message to the West – Israel must stop the slaughter
  18 January 2009, by Ismail Haniyeh
  I write this article to Western readers across the social and political spectrum as the Israeli war machine continues to massacre my people in Gaza. To date, almost 1,000 have been killed, nearly half of whom are women and children. Last week’s bombing of the UNRWA (UN Relief Works Agency) school in the Jabalya refugee camp was one of the most despicable crimes imaginable, as hundreds of civilians had abandoned their homes and sought refuge with the international agency only to be (…)
• صدامات أم الفحم: نموذج أوَّلي لتصفية القضية
  28 آذار (مارس) 2009, بقلم د. عادل سمارة
  حتى لو بدأنا قراءة الصراع العربي-الصهيوني من مذبحة غزة، لكان ذلك كافٍ لرؤية الخطر المحدق والخطر القادم بتصميم من مختلف الأطراف الرسمية تجاه حق الشعب الفلسطيني والأمة العربية ومستقبلهما. وهو خطر ينقسم إلى مستويين وليس نقيضين: – في المستوى الأول مشروع صهيوني رقم (أ) بطرد فلسطينيي ١٩٤٨ إلى الضفة الغربية والأردن، وهذا ما تقبله الأطراف العربية الرسمية، دون إعلان، على أمل أن يكتفي الكيان الصهيوني بهذا ويمنح سلطة الحكم الذاتي ما يقارب دولة! – وفي المستوى الثاني، أن هذا الطرد هو مقدمة لطرد كل من (…)
• 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 (…)
• A PRE-PLANNED AND PRE-MEDITATED EFFORT FOR ETHNIC CLEANSING AND LAND THEFT
  28 February 2009, by Nizar Sakhnini
  PROLOGUE: The Zionist propaganda began with a big lie claiming that Palestine was a “land without people for a people without a land”. Palestine, however, was not a ‘land without people’. Accordingly, creation of a ‘Jewish State’ with a ‘Jewish Majority’ implied getting rid of its indigenous population and stealing their homes and lands. The pre-planned and pre-meditated Zionist efforts for Ethnic Cleansing and Land Theft started in 1948 and never stopped to this date. HISTORICAL (…)
• Liban, un massacre pour quoi faire

• Fear Not
  19 August 2010, by Israel Shamir
  1. Crying Wolf So many people have circulated so many warnings of the forthcoming US-Israeli attack on Iran that it is hard to ignore them. A piece written by a few ex-spooks warning of a new round of war is one of these messages. In our view, spooks, ex or not, are not the most reliable people, and the CIA is not the best reference. However, this item fits with the dire predictions and accompanying Israeli U-boats to the shores of Iran. Rumours of Israeli advance forces being placed in (…)
• The time of the righteous
  10 January 2009, by Gideon Levy
  This war, perhaps more than its predecessors, is exposing the true deep veins of Israeli society. Racism and hatred are rearing their heads, as is the impulse for revenge and the thirst for blood. The "inclination of the commander" in the Israel Defense Forces is now "to kill as many as possible," as the military correspondents on television describe it. And even if the reference is to Hamas fighters, this inclination is still chilling. The unbridled aggression and brutality are justified (…)
• Victorious, but vilified: Israel has ’destroyed its image and its soul’
  18 January 2009, by Donald Macintyre, Kim Sengupta
  After three weeks of carnage in Gaza, there were tentative signs of a ceasefire last night. But the bitter legacy of the past 22 days for Israel is that, while it declares victory on the battlefield, the country’s reputation has rarely sunk so low. Yesterday the United Nations called for a war crimes investigation after two children, aged five and seven, were killed when, it claimed, an Israeli tank shell hit a school sheltering some of the more than 40,000 internally displaced refugees. (…)
• Israel’s Righteous Fury and its Victims in Gaza
  9 January 2009, by Ilan Pappe
  My visit back home to the Galilee coincided with the genocidal Israeli attack on Gaza. The state, through its media and with the help of its academia, broadcasted one unanimous voice — even louder than the one heard during the criminal attack against Lebanon in the summer of 2006. Israel is engulfed once more with righteous fury that translates into destructive policies in the Gaza Strip. This appalling self-justification for the inhumanity and impunity is not just annoying, it is a subject (…)
