The murder of Osama Bin Laden by US navy seals is a matter of supreme indifference. That the man and all he and Al Queda represented were repugnant beyond words hardly needs emphasising (except to the 100 Al Muhajaroun idiots and Ahmed Chaudry demonstrating outside the London US embassy yesterday. Al Quaeda itself could best…

Tamimi is an Islamist but this is nonetheless an important article and shows the dilemmas of Hamas, which relies on its Syrian sanctuary but cannot afford to support the people of Syria. In microcosm this was always the dilemma of the PLO and they resolved it in such a way as to hand back their…

This excellent talk, delivered by Israeli journalist Gideon Spiro hardly needs any elaboration. It details the cynical way that Israel uses the holocaust for the purpose of repression.

Atzmon blowing his own trumpet Atzmon Humiliated Atzmon is beginning to realise where holocaust denial and his virulent brand of anti-Semitism leads. At present it is the status of a leper, with all 3 fellow panellists deserting him. His explanation for Palestinian Ghada Karmi not attending is that she sent him an e-mail: “I’m delayed…

I was sent a post yesterday by a French comrade who asked why it was that British left-winger John Rose of the SWP and Ghada Karmi were speaking alongside an open anti-Semite and holocaust denier, Gilad Atzmon. I must confess I didn’t know. I therefore e-mailed a number of people making them aware of this…
