  • Belgian campaign targets bank financing Israeli settlements
    5 April 2009, by Adri Nieuwhof
    In a remarkably short period of time, activists in Belgium have built a strong basis for the campaign "Israel colonizes — Dexia funds," asking the bank to divest from its subsidiary Dexia Israel because of its financing of the expansion of illegal settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The Israeli settlements violate Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, prohibiting the Occupying Power to deport or transfer parts of its civilian population into the territory it occupies, (…)
  • Ethnic Cleansing and Israel
    4 March 2009, by Conn Hallinan
    One of the more disturbing developments in the Middle East is a growing consensus among Israelis that it would acceptable to expel—in the words of advocates “transfer”—its Arab citizens to either a yet as unformed Palestinian state or the neighboring countries of Jordan and Egypt. Such sentiment is hardly new among Israeli extremists, and it has long been advocated by racist Jewish organizations like Kach, the party of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, as well as groups like the National Union, (…)
  • الهندي الجديد يستنسخ في فلسطين
    25 أيلول (سبتمبر) 2009, بقلم فهمي هويدي
    انتابني شعور بالهلع حين سمعت مصطلح الفلسطيني الجديد لأنه بدا استعادة لتجربة صناعة الهندي الجديد، التي تعد احدى الجرائم التاريخية الكبرى. — ١— الذي تحدث عن الفلسطيني الجديد هو الجنرال كيث دايتون الذي يتولى رسميا وظيفة المنسق الأمني وهو يقيم في تل أبيب ملحقا بالسفارة الأمريكية هناك. أما وظيفته الفعلية فهي الاشراف على تهيئة الأوضاع في الضفة الغربية بحيث تتوافق تماما مع الرغبات والمخططات الاسرائيلية. وهي المهمة التي يحتل رأس أولوياتها تهدئة الهواجس الأمنية الاسرائيلية. من خلال تخليق جيل من (…)
  • L’Onu somme Israël de cesser les démolitions à Jérusalem-Est
    1er mai 2009, par Douglas Hamilton
    Selon un rapport du Bureau des Nations unies pour les affaires humanitaires, 1.500 démolitions de maisons sont programmées dans la vieille ville arabe, officiellement parce qu’elles n’avaient pas bénéficié de permis de construire. Si ce plan, qui suscite des tensions intercommunautaires en ville, était mené à bien, ce serait quelque 9.000 Arabes qui seraient chassés de Jérusalem-Est, occupée et annexée par Israël à la faveur de la guerre de 1967. Les projets de démolition, qui ont l’aval (…)
  • Israël envisagerait de doubler le nombre de colons en Cisjordanie
    2 mars 2009
    Le gouvernement sortant israélien a préparé des plans de colonisation intensive visant à quasiment doubler le nombre de colons en Cisjordanie occupée, selon un rapport publié, lundi 2 mars, par le mouvement anti-colonisation La Paix maintenant. Ces plans de colonisation, élaborés par le ministère de l’habitat et qui doivent encore être soumis par le prochain gouvernement de droite, prévoient la construction de 73 000 logements dans les prochaines années, dont 5 700 dans des quartiers de (…)
  • Barak Approves More Settlement Units Before Heading To Talk “Peace” in Washington
    30 June 2009
    Hours 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 (…)
  • What about the Arabs’ natural growth?
    2 July 2009, by Akiva Eldar
    It seems that never before has so much been written and said about the "natural growth" of so few. The issue of construction in the West Bank settlements for the sake of the future generation is threatening to sabotage Israel’s relations with the U.S., or undermine Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s relations with the settlers and their representatives in the Likud and Israel’s right wing. Maybe it is no coincidence that the government spokespeople insist on describing the homes for "sons (…)
  • If I were a Palestinian
    27 avril 2009, par Akiva Eldar
    In 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 (…)
  • Israeli plan for settlement building angers US
    5 September 2009, by Steven Gutkin
    Israel said Friday it will construct hundreds of new housing units in West Bank settlements before any slowdown in building, an announcement that drew harsh criticism from Washington, which demands a complete settlement freeze as a prelude to renewing Mideast peace talks. Israeli officials painted the move as a concession to the U.S. demand because it might bring a temporary halt to other construction. But since it would also mean building the new units and finishing some 2,500 others now (…)
  • Devouring Jerusalem
    1 May 2009, by Khalid Amayreh
    In its increasingly rabid efforts to consolidate control of traditionally Arab-East Jerusalem, Israel this week moved to suppress Palestinian cultural activities associated with the city being declared the capital of Arab culture for 2009. On 19 March heavily armed paramilitary police violently dispersed a meeting at the Ambassador Hotel in East Jerusalem, confiscating posters, leaflets, placards and computers. Israeli police also raided schools, social clubs and community centres to (…)
