Attacks on Palestinian shepherds

mardi 2 mai 2017 à 02:00

Extremist "settlers" repeatedly attacked Palestinian shepherds, driving them off their land. Israeli thugs naturally did nothing to stop this. When nonviolent Israeli activists came to support the shepherds, the "settlers" attacked them too.

On one occasion, they attacked Israeli thugs as well. But that is no longer necessary; the thugs have learned their lesson and now blatantly give the Israeli terrorists full support.

Israel selling natural gas

mardi 2 mai 2017 à 02:00

Israel is selling natural gas from a field underneath Israel and Palestine. Naturally it isn't giving Palestine any say or any share. Basically that is theft.

However, the most important thing about fossil fuel deposits is not who gets to burn them, but avoiding burning them at all. If the pipeline from Israel to Europe is actually put to use at the scheduled completion in 2025, Israel and Palestine will both be doomed. There is no possible good in spending money to build a pipeline in these circumstances, regardless of who will get paid for a while.

Nonviolent Palestinian protest

mardi 2 mai 2017 à 02:00

Israel can't cope with nonviolent Palestinian protest and opposition except to smear it as "support for terrorism".

Marwan Barghouti, one of the leaders of the prisoners' hunger strike, was convicted in Israel of murder -- but the Inter-Parliamentary Union says his trial was unfair and that his guilt is not established.

The article describes how unfair trial, even pretrial torture to extract false confessions, is standard practice in Israel when dealing with accused Palestinians. More information about that.

Israel has blocked lawyers from meeting with the hunger strikers.

Could Barghouti Become Israel's Peace Partner?
