  • Israeli elections and exchanged accusations

    Israeli public opinion polls suggest that Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to win about 30 seats in the next Knesset elections in April. Netanyahu does not feel reassured about this, and he recently allied with two far-right parties, the Jewish Home and Jewish Power (Otzma Yehudit), if they...

  • While Israel kills, the US condemns Hamas

    Last week, the United States submitted a resolution to the UN General Assembly condemning Hamas for attacking Israel. The resolution was supported by 87 countries but opposed by 57, with more than 30 abstentions, and so was not adopted because it did not get the two-thirds majority required. “The...

  • The world condemns Israel

    My opinion of the terrorist Benjamin Netanyahu is well known and I have expressed it several times in my articles. Today I will refer back to the UN and six resolutions against Israel that were supported by the international organisation’s member states. The most important resolution is related to...

A terrorist wing, led by Netanyahu, exists in Israel and settlers and strangers claim that Palestine is their historical homeland. Some...

  • Trump has given Israel a licence to kill

    We know that President Donald Trump has banned citizens of seven countries from entering the United States; the majority of those affected are Muslims. He also supported the far-right in the Charlottesville clashes because that is his end of the political spectrum. What’s more, he has allied himself with...

  • Netanyahu believes that the two-state solution is off the table

    I have finally found an editorial in the New York Times with which I agree. Headlined “Israel Digs a Grave for the Two-State Solution” it talks about the extremist parties in the Zionist state that want it to extend from the River Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea. Such a...

  • Washington holds every country to account, except Israel

    Reading a report by Amnesty International on the number of executions carried out last year, I saw that of the top ten countries with the highest number of executions, eight are Muslim states. However, the number of executions in the first and second countries alone totalled many more than...
