Od Yosef Hai Yeshivah (Jewish study seminary) based in the Yitzhar settlement in the West Bank, is suspected of carrying out terrorist ‘price tag’ attacks on Palestinians.

Dr Khouri-Machool (C) Paul Crofts The Racist Backwash from Freiburg’s ‘Free Speech forHolocaust denier’s’ Conference & The Political Vacuity of Palestinian Functionary Samir Abed-Rabbo At the same time as we were planning the disruption of the BBC Proms Concert featuring the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra on September 1st, Gilad Atzmon and his supporters were planning a…

Murdoch’s Support for Zionism Hasn’t Harmed Relations With Squalid Prince Walid ben Azziz There a number of academics and others who should know better, who argue that the support of the USA for Zionism and Israel is a result of the ‘Zionist Lobby’ or even the Jewish vote.

As readers of this blog will know, I carried a few articles on the Freiburg conference last Sunday 11th September which was purportedly about the silencing of the Palestinian voice in history, but also involved Gilad…
