Jewish Group Urges Israeli Model Bar Refaeli not to marry Leonardo DiCaprio and dilute the Jewish race Is Zionism racist? Of course not. It’s just a gentle Jewish cultural and spiritual association of like-minded thinkers! And pigs (kosher of course) can fly. In most countries you will find clubs and societies which are allied with…

First Dershowitz now Kramer – Harvard University Just Loves Academic Racists There must be something about the air in Massachusetts these days. They’ve just gone and elected a Republican Senator in a State where a donkey could get elected if it wore the Democratic colours (some say it has already!). Now it’s flagship University, Harvard,…

‘The Only Democracy in the Middle East’ Attacks Another Human Rights ActivistDespite its pretended opposition to terrorism (apart from its own of course), what Israel most fears is a mass non-violent peaceful protest by Palestinians. Palestinian ‘terrorism’ is easy to deal with since Israel is far more powerful than its adversaries and terrorism has always…

Brighton’s First Organised Trade Union Demonstration for over a Decade Class struggle in the workplace had declined immensely in the past two decades as trade unions ability to defend their membership has been significantly weakened. New Labour came to power in 1997 with Tony Blair boasting that he would preside over the most restrictive anti-union…

Is National Liberation Contingent Upon Socialism? I am happy to reprint Moshe Machover’s speech to the SOAS Conference on the Left & Palestine/ Palestinians and the Left.

Academic Left Conference on Palestine Fails to Match Up to Expectations The weekend of 27-28th February saw the holding of a quite unique conference on the Left and the Palestinian Question. I cannot remember a similar attempt to hold such a conference in the past. It is therefore doubly unfortunate that there was no attempt…

A Conference not to be missed! And certainly not something that Britain’s Palestine Solidarity Campaign could organise given its slavish adherence to a 2 State Solution and the PA’s diplomatic strategy of reliance on the West. At a time when we have seen Hamas, an avowedly sectarian organisation, rise to the leadership of the Palestinians,…

Last summer whilst on holiday I took a copy of Francis Nicosia’s Zionism & anti-semitism in Nazi Germany for light reading! An appalling apologia for the collaboration of the Zionist movement in Germany with the new Nazi government, I said that I would do a review of that book and its predecessor, The Third Reich…

Martin Kramer is President-Designate of Shalem College as well as being a fellow of Harvard University, alongside fellow racist, Alan Dershowitz. Shalem College is supposed to be Israel’s first ‘liberal’ arts college. Clearly the Israeli and non-Israeli definition of ‘liberal’ have different meanings. As the excellent article on Electronic Intifada makes clear, the Kramer’s (&…
