There has been a lot of debate over the years as to the accuracy of comparing what is happening to Palestinians in Gaza to what happened to the Jews in Nazi Germany during the 1930’s. How legitimate is this comparison? The latest remarks made by Matan Vilnai, the Deputy Defence Minister of Israel, and Ehud Barak, the Defence Minister of Israel, should answer this question once and for all.
To be able to put the present situation into context, we must first go back to Germany during 9 (…)

The following speech, transcribed by Democracy Now!, was delivered by Chomsky in Massachussetts at an event sponsored by Bikes Not Bombs.
Not very long ago, as you all recall, it was taken for granted that the Iraq war would be the central issue in the 2008 election, as it was in the midterm election two years ago. However, it’s virtually disappeared off the radar screen, which has solicited some puzzlement among the punditry.
Actually, the reason is not very obscure. It was cogently (…)

Operation Canned Goods By David Glenn Cox History is written by the victors, that much is true. Not only are the valiant deeds of the victors made public but the crimes of the vanquished as well. The Spanish American War was predicated on the premise that Spanish radicals had planted explosives on the American battleship, USS Maine. The American ambassador described the negotiations, in his diary of that day, as going well and exceptional progress being made. But with the death of the (…)

I Know! Let’s Rape Grandma! By David Glenn Cox
With the current subprime crisis, most lenders don’t sleep well at night. For years they lived an idyllic life style, lending out a dollar and getting back a buck and a quarter. Come in late and leave early; only a pimp had it better. But bankers never had to contend with the cops or wayward hookers. Like a drug dealer they just stood on the corner and waited for the suckers to come to them.
Not that bankers don’t do good things for a (…)

by Rory McCarthy in Jerusalem
Israel’s deputy defence minister yesterday warned his country was close to launching a huge military operation in Gaza and said Palestinians would bring on themselves a "bigger shoah," using the Hebrew word usually reserved for the Holocaust.
The choice of vocabulary from Matan Vilnai, an often outspoken former army general, was unusually grave - the word is not normally used for anything other than the Nazi Holocaust of the Jews.
Vilnai was speaking about (…)
