Israel

The state of Israel was created on the back of the sufferings of Palestinians who were deceived by their Colonial rulers who allowed the Zionist state to take shape. Since its conception Israel has been on a path to eradicate Palestinian Arabs from their historical land and to expand its territory. Every step of the way Israel has acted as the victim instead of the aggressor. It does this to distract from the physical reality of its actions by focusing on the response from its victims, which like most cases of injustice is a sense of outrage and a lashing out.

Since the end of the Cold War, we’re had a lot of very instructive experience in the Middle East. Back in 2010, I compiled the real-time analyses I had made of our policies and their results in a book titled America’s Misadventures in the Middle East. The book holds up well as an explanation for the origins and evolution of most of our difficulties in the region. Unfortunately, both the situation in the Middle East and our position there have continued to deteriorate.

U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump has confirmed with reporters that he will visit Israel after the Republican convention in July and before November’s general election. Israel National News reports: His confirmation came after the Trump campaign on Monday denied an Ma’ariv report last Friday, according to which he will visit Israel, Russia and Germany after the convention. A close adviser to Trump was cited in the report as saying the trip was meant to improve his image and to keep him more abreast of foreign affairs.

Zionist Israel Hides Its Crimes Behind Its Smears of Truth-Tellers

Several years ago two very distinguished American scholars wrote a book, The Israel Lobby.

The book made a very understated case that the Israel Lobby has far more power over the US government and media than is good for America or Israel, as it silences constructive critics who are Israel’s friends. The two scholars were demonized by the Israel Lobby as advocating the return of the Holocaust.

Former London mayor Ken Livingston has said that he believes the creation of Israel to be “fundamentally wrong,” and “a great catastrophe”.  According to Ken, the existence of the country in the Middle East could lead the world into a nuclear war. Timesofisrael.com reports: “The creation of the state of Israel was fundamentally wrong, because there had been a Palestinian community there for 2,000 years,” Livingstone told an Arabic language TV station based in London, in a clip posted and translated by the watchdog MEMRI group.
