Hats off to Eric Joyce MP
A Good Man (sort of) Fallen Amongst Thieves Yes I know there has been much tutting about Eric Joyce MP, who clocked a few Tories in the Strangers Bar of the House of Commons, as well as a Labour MP and whip Phil Wilson (a Tory in all but name). But every cloud has a…
Read MoreRossman-Benjamin – the Face of a Police State Academic
Rossman-Benjamin: A Good Example of the Low Academic Standards of US Zionist Jewish-Holocaust Studies Departments It would appear that I trod on some sensitive toes when I wrote an Open Letter to one Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, the Zionist academic, who has been trying to ban a somewhat more distinguished academic, Professor Ilan Pappe, from speaking at…
Read MoreZionist Attempts to Prevent Ilan Pappe Speaking at University of California Fail
Zionism’s McCarthyite Supporters Rebuffed – Academic Freedom at California State University Defended Tammi Rossman-Benjamin is an academic at the Santa Cruz campus of the California State University, albeit not one with an international reputation, unlike Professor Ilan Pappe who she has been trying to get banned.

Read MoreThe Tragedy of Norman Finkelstein – Time to Say Goodbye
From anti-Zionist to Supporter of a ‘Jewish’ StatePragmatism in the Service of Imperialism[this is a brilliant refutation of Norman’s position, Ilan Pappe, e- mail 18.2.12.] Norman Finkelstein, at the beginning of his career, was the brightest star in the firmament.

Read MoreIsrael’s Theft of Palestinian Water
One of the main reasons as to why Israel refuses to give up the Occupied Territories is water.

Read MorePilger: From the Chagos Islanders to the Drones – a War on Freedom
Another excellent article from John Pilger. Pilger is one of that very small band of journalists such as Robert Fisk, who don’t bend a knee to power. Whereas most journalists see their role as to mystify and beautify the ruling classes, Pilger tells it as it really is – the drones that operate without a…
Read MoreIsrael – the most hostile of all western countries to refugees & asylum seekers
Israel may be many things, but it isn’t a slouch when it comes to jailing refugees and asyum seekers.

Israel has enough ‘demographic…

In this article Lenni…
