The Settlement That Broke the Two-State Solution

Ma'aleh Adumim symbolizes why Middle East peace may no longer be possible.

MA'ALEH ADUMIM, West Bank — When you drive out on the highway to the West Bank settlement of Ma'aleh Adumim from Jerusalem, you're driving through big sky country. After passing Jerusalem's new Jewish neighborhoods and old Arab villages, all you've got on either side of you are the soft hills of the Judean desert.

Stanley L Cohen’s Speech at the ICC Conference in Zurich Dec 2012

I am pleased to speak to you here today at this important gathering. As an American, I want to address a global-historical fact you already know about, from your direct experiences in your home countries, but perhaps without seeing the full picture.

Amira Hass: The anti-Semitism that goes unreported

Tens of thousands of people live in the shadow of terror

Here’s a statistic that you won’t see in research on anti-Semitism, no matter how meticulous the study is. In the first six months of the year, 154 anti-Semitic assaults have been recorded, 45 of them around one village alone. Some fear that last year’s record high of 411 attacks – significantly more than the 312 attacks in 2010 and 168 in 2009 – could be broken this year.

Noam Chomsky: Palestine 2012 – Gaza and the UN resolution

An old man in Gaza held a placard that reads:
“You take my water, 
 burn my olive trees, 
destroy my house, 
take my job, 
steal my land, 
imprison my father, 
kill my mother, 
bombard my country, 
starve us all, 
humiliate us all 
but
 I am to blame: I shot a rocket back.”1


EU threatens to withdraw support for Israel over settlement plans



UN not happy with Israel's settlement news

Was it UK Hague who said that;  "... in 1947? we created you and in 2012 we'll banish you? or in similar words and dates...?  Israel is getting its holocaust wish very soon if it continues provoking Palestine.

The E1 plan and its implications for human rights in the West Bank

This past weekend, the media reported that Israel has decided to advance the planning of thousands of apartments in the settlement of Ma’ale Adumim, as part of the E-1 plan, in the area connecting the settlement to Jerusalem.

Genocide at the Service of Greater Israel

Israeli Terror: The “Final Solution” to the Palestine Question

Genocide at the Service of Greater Israel

In Israel, almost an entire people – over 80% of Jews – support, with varying degrees of intensity,  the terror bombing and slaughter of the people of Gaza.  Setting aside the profound sociopathic disorders of the raging and racist multitude in Israel, what is politically more significant are the totalitarian rants of leading Israeli public figures, published as editorials, in such newspapers as the respectable Jerusalem Post:

A Synopsis of the Current Situation in Israel/Palestine

Fortunately, the American media cover many events in Israel with great detail and thoroughness. Therefore, we are not repeating that coverage here. Instead, we are attempting to fill in the many important news items – most of them about incidents in the Palestinian territories – that are not available in the U.S. media.

Israel's Violence on Palestenians

Right to Defend itself

Israel has always cried 'holocaust' tears to the world while singing the old tune of "Defending itself and its citizens". How do they do it? By banning or killing international journalists by bribing their supportive governments. Palestine is destroyed as a State so is Gaza. Meanwhile the "chronically suffering Israel" has developed to a point it does not need Uncle Sam anymore, see their infrastructure, see their military development up to nuclear programs... and they are the eternal "poor" in need. -- --
