Le lobby pro-israélien et la politique étrangère américaine
17 novembre 2007, par John Mearsheimer, Stephen WaltLe 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 (…) -
Gaza, remember?
19 April 2009, by Gideon LevyAlyan Abu-Aun is lying in his tent, his crutches beside him. He smokes cigarettes and stares into the tiny tent’s empty space. His young son sits on his lap. Ten people are crammed into the tent, about the size of a small room. It has been their home for three months. Nothing remains of their previous home, which the Israel Defense Forces shelled during Operation Cast Lead. They are refugees for a second time; Abu-Aun’s mother still remembers her home in Sumsum, a town that once stood near (…) -
Gideon Lévy : une épine dans le flanc d’Israël
18 décembre 2006, par Sylvain CypelUne épine dans le désert". Le 25 août, quand les médias israéliens n’évoquaient que le "séisme" généré par l’"échec" de la guerre au Liban, Gideon Lévy, lui, rédigeait sous ce titre sa "story" hebdomadaire dans le supplément du quotidien Haaretz. Un reportage à Shoka - "épine", en arabe -, un village miséreux de la bande de Gaza. En un mois, quand tous les regards se portaient vers le Hezbollah, dix-sept Palestiniens y avaient été tués par l’armée israélienne. Gideon interroge les (…) -
Barak Approves More Settlement Units Before Heading To Talk “Peace” in Washington
30 June 2009Hours before he took off to Washington for talks with the US administration on peace and settlements, Israeli Army Minister, Ehud Barak, approved the construction of a new settlement in the so-called Benyamin region. The approval came as part of a deal with the settlers who were evacuated from the illegal Migron settlement outpost. The settlers would move into a new settlement of 250 houses after they evacuate their outpost built on privately owned Palestinian land. Migron is inhibited (…) -
1948 ne fut que le premier chapitre
19 décembre 2006, par Sylvain CypelLa scène se passe en février 1982. La paix avec l’Egypte a quatre ans. Ministre de la défense d’un gouvernement dirigé par Menahem Begin, leader historique de la droite nationaliste, Ariel Sharon est en visite au Caire. Comme à chaque déplacement, Shimon Shiffer, chroniqueur du quotidien populaire Yediot Aharonot, est du voyage. "Chaque soir, raconte-t-il, Arik appelait sa vieille maman au village. "Comment vas-tu ? Comment vont les vaches à la ferme ? - Bien, bien", répondait-elle. Et (…) -
The Joke in Annapolis
27 November 2007, by Uri AvneryThe Annapolis conference is a joke. Though not in the least funny. Like quite a lot of political initiatives, this one too, according to all the indications, started more or less by accident. George Bush was due to make a speech. He was looking for a theme that would give it some substance. Something that would divert attention away from his fiascos in Iraq and Afghanistan. Something simple, optimistic, easy to swallow. Somehow, the idea of a "meeting" of leaders to promote the (…) -
If I were a Palestinian
27 avril 2009, par Akiva EldarIn a moment of candor, Ehud Barak once said : "If I were a Palestinian of the right age, I would join, at some point, one of the terrorist groups." If I were a Palestinian, of any age, I would declare an all-out war on all terrorist groups and fulfill the demand of the Jews to recognize the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish people. Furthermore, as a present on the birthday of the Jewish people, as it completes 61 years of existence, I would announce that I also respect its (…) -
Criminalizing Criticism of Israel
8 May 2009, by PAUL CRAIG ROBERTSOn October 16, 2004, President George W. Bush signed the Israel Lobby’s bill, the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act. This legislation requires the US Department of State to monitor anti-semitism world wide. To monitor anti-semitism, it has to be defined. What is the definition? Basically, as defined by the Israel Lobby and Abe Foxman, it boils down to any criticism of Israel or Jews. Rahm Israel Emanuel hasn’t been mopping floors at the White House. As soon as he gets the Hate Crimes (…) -
A racist Jewish state
19 April 2009Every day the Knesset has the option of passing laws that will advance Israel as a democratic Jewish state or turn it into a racist Jewish state. There is a very thin line between the two. This week, the line was crossed. If the Knesset legal counselor did not consider the bill entitled "the Jewish National Fund Law" as sufficiently racist to keep it off the agenda, it is hard to imagine what legislation she will consider racist. In 1995 the Supreme Court rescued the state from callously (…) -
U.S. drops spy charges against two ex-AIPAC officials
3 May 2009Federal prosecutors moved Friday to dismiss espionage-related charges against two former pro-Israel lobbyists accused of disclosing classified U.S. defense information, ending a tortuous inside-the-Beltway legal battle rife with national security intrigue. Critics of the prosecution of Steven Rosen and Keith Weissman of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee accused the federal government of trying to criminalize the sort of back-channel discussions between government officials, (…)
