    Open Letter To The American Media By May Ibrahim July 27, 2006 Dear Members of the American Media, I have been following your coverage of the Israeli attack on Lebanon, and I am appalled to see the lack of information provided to your audience on the ACTUAL escalation of events that has truly led to this inconceivably unjust and criminal military onslaught onto Lebanon and its citizens by the government of Israel.
    Lebanon and the Lebanese population will suffer for months, if not (…)

    "I Came Over Here Because I Wanted To Kill People" By Andrew Tilghman Sunday, July 30, 2006; B01 " I came over here because I wanted to kill people."
    Over a mess-tent dinner of turkey cutlets, the bony-faced 21-year-old private from West Texas looked right at me as he talked about killing Iraqis with casual indifference. It was February, and we were at his small patrol base about 20 miles south of Baghdad. "The truth is, it wasn’t all I thought it was cracked up to be. I mean, I thought (…)

    All The Killings With All Those Weapons Given By Americans Essa bin Mohammed Al-Zedjali, Arab News Monday, 31, July, 2006
    The US administration continues to provide Israel, its closest ally, with the most advanced weapons including the sophisticated Smart and Cluster bombs to be used in its continued war against Lebanon in much the same way they are being used against innocent civilians in the daily bombardment of Palestine.
    According to a report in the New York Times last Monday, the US (…)

    Lebanon: Some Primetime Lies From US Media Jonathan Cook, Arab News Monday, 31, July, 2006 Last week I had the pleasure to appear on American radio, on the Laura Ingraham show, pitted against David Horowitz, a “Semite supremacist” who most recently made his name under the banner of Campus Watch, leading McCarthyite witch-hunts against American professors who have the impertinence to suggest that maybe, just maybe, Arabs have minds and feelings like the rest of us.
    It was a revealing (…)

    The Costs to American Taxpayers of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: $3 Trillion
    By Thomas R. Stauffer
    Conflicts in the Middle East have been very costly to the U.S., as well as to the rest of the world. An estimate of the total cost to the U.S. alone of instability and conflict in the region?which emanates from the core, Israeli-Palestinian conflict?amounts to close to $3 trillion, measured in 2002 dollars...

  • US - ISRAELI UN RESOLUTION HYPOCRISY
    31 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    US - Israeli UN Resolution Hypocrisy - by Stephen Lendman
    Two nations stand out above all others as notorious serial abusers of UN resolutions - the US and Israel. Over the last half century, the US has used its Security Council veto many dozens of times to prevent any resolutions from passing condemning Israel for its abusive or hostile actions or that were inimical to Israeli interests. It’s also voted against dozens of others overwhelmingly supported by the rest of the world in the UN (…)

    Friends True and False
    Israel Shamir - Shamireaders July 26, 2006
    After two weeks, the war settled down comfortably in the Middle East, like an old aunt on a regular visit to her nephews. It came to stay for a while, and as the first shock of the battle for Lebanon is over, the picture clears up. First, the news. Despite the awesome, crushing might of the Israeli onslaught, despite its unprecedented viciousness and brutality, the steadfast warriors of Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah held their (…)

    TO THE UN General Secretary: Are you keeping silent or justifying the massacre in Lebanon?.
    The Israeli war on Lebanon is an obvious act of massive destruction. In its first week, bridges, airports, electric power stations and residential areas were deliberately targeted. The UN nation, represented by its Secretary General, failed to act according to its character. The UN security council has failed, by the American veto, to stop the war or even to issue an order for that. Mr. Coffi Annan (…)

  • Mayor Martin O’Malley Pimps for Israel Lobby

    “Don’t wait for the Last Judgment. It takes place every day.” - Albert Camus
    Oh, what will these politicians do to get elected to public office? Are there any limits? Take for example, Martin O’Malley, a Democrat. Presently, he holds the office of mayor of Baltimore City, but he also wants to be the next governor of Maryland. So, when the call went out to him from the wheeler dealers in the Israel Lobby to show up for a “Baltimore Stands with Israel” rally, on July 25, 2006, at the local (…)
