I am now reading Ilan Pappe’s book about the ethnic cleansing of Palestine by the racist Zionist movement. You can also read about it on wikipedia and see all the sides and sources of the history of the 1947-49 war. It makes me furious to read in such detail how deliberate the Zionist policy was [...]

No peace so long as Israel continues to play roughshod
Posted in Foreign Affairs, tagged Israel, Lebanon, Middle East, Palestine, Peace, Refugees, United States on April 28, 2009 | 5 Comments »
As long as Israel continues to flaunt the basic rights of the Palestinians and so long as it does not rectify the basic injustice committed when the state was established in 1948, peace in Lebanon and the region will never be. We will always suffer from instability. Why? Because we will have the forces supprting [...]
One day, Israel will pay the price
Posted in Foreign Affairs, tagged Israel, Palestine, Peace on February 13, 2009 | 6 Comments »
Israel was created by shear shrewdness and utter disregard for the rights of a people, the Palestinians. Zionism found unimagined success in their efforts to create a Jewish state in Palestine. Thanks to a strong PR effort combined with well-organized military plan and international support, today Israel is a powerful country and the Palestinians an [...]

I have often been asked what Israel should do in order for the Arab countries to accept Israel in the region. Here is a very general overview of what is needed. In order to achieve peace in the Middle East and end the long lasting Palestinian-Israeli dispute, here is what Israel needs to do:
Admit the [...]
The US condemns Russia… or itself?

The Russians today recognized the independence of the two breakaway Georgian regions. According to the BBC:
US President George Bush warned his Russian counterpart, Dmitry Medvedev, that his “irresponsible decision” was exacerbating tensions in the region.
Now, why is the US reaction to such an act of “emancipation” so gloomy? If it’s in Iraqi Kurdistan, the US [...]
Israel’s demise

Anything for Eretz Israel!
Killing, lies, forced transfer, theft, expropriation, all in the name of a dream for a Great Jewish State. What happens when its achieved? What then? After all the region’s people have been defeated and forced to live by Israel’s rules, where then? Israel can live in peace in a desolate world of [...]
No land, no peace!

The land for peace principle underlying any talks between the Israelis and the Palestinians means, so long as there is no land returned, there will be no peace. And no peace, well that means war. So, as long as the Israelis do not leave the Occupied Territories, Palestinians will continue to fight them, period.
Today we [...]
National dilemma

The Lebanese are living a national dilemma today, at least as far as I can tell. The dilemma is the split we feel between wanting to support resistance to Israeli interests on the one hand, and wanting to live an “ordinary” life on the other.
Hezbollah’s program supports resistance; in fact, it puts what seems all [...]
Why not naturalize the Palestinians in Lebanon?

Someone posted this today on Naharnet. I second this opinion. And I am not a Wahhabi!
Let us be logical guys, everyone is using the Palestinians and naturalization as a scare-crow or be3boo3. You know what, they deserve it more than the thousands of garbage that Michel Murr and the government have naturalized in [...]
More Arabs poses a "problem"

Here is what the BBC had to say in a recent article on Israel’s policy of granting citizenship to all Jews who apply:
“Analysts say facilitating immigration of the larger number of Jews to Israel is a key factor in countering the demographic challenge posed by the growing Palestinian Arab population in Israel and the Israeli-occupied [...]
