  • Nakbah 2010

    jeudi 27 mai 2010
    La dépossession du peuple palestinien qui a commencé avec les massacres et les expulsions de 1948 se poursuit aujourd’hui avec le siège de Gaza et la « judaïsation » de Jérusalem et de la Cisjordanie. Tout suit un plan de « nettoyage ethnique », écrit Ilan Pappe dans cette tribune libre. Plus les années passent, plus il devient clair que le plus grand défi auquel nous sommes confrontés est la triste réalité que la Nakbah n’est pas terminée. Et quand je dis « nous » je veux dire tous ceux qui (...) suite suite

  • How Israel was Founded on Ethnic Cleansing

    Thursday 5 February 2009
    The present dismal reality unfolding in the Middle East has clear historical roots and a journey into the past may help to illuminate what lies behind the destructive policies of Israel in both Palestine and Lebanon. Zionism arrived in Palestine in the late 19th as a colonialist movement motivated by national impulses. The colonisation of Palestine fitted well the interests and policies of the British Empire on the eve of the First World War. With the backing of Britain, the colonisation (...) continue continue

  • Israel’s Message

    Sunday 18 January 2009
    In 2004, the Israeli army began building a dummy Arab city in the Negev desert. It’s the size of a real city, with streets (all of them given names), mosques, public buildings and cars. Built at a cost of $45 million, this phantom city became a dummy Gaza in the winter of 2006, after Hizbullah fought Israel to a draw in the north, so that the IDF could prepare to fight a ‘better war’ against Hamas in the south. When the Israeli Chief of General Staff Dan Halutz visited the site after the (...) continue continue

  • Israel’s Righteous Fury and its Victims in Gaza

    Friday 9 January 2009
    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 (...) continue continue

  • Palestine 2007 : Genocide in Gaza, Ethnic Cleansing in the West Bank

    samedi 14 avril 2007
    On this stage, not so long ago, I claimed that Israel is conducting genocidal policies in the Gaza Strip. I hesitated a lot before using this very charged term and yet decided to adopt it. Indeed, the responses I received, including from some leading human rights activists, indicated a certain unease over the usage of such a term. I was inclined to rethink the term for a while, but came back to employing it today with even stronger conviction : it is the only appropriate way to describe (...) suite suite
