My day started off in the worst possible way today. As I walked out to the main road to catch a taxi to work, I was met with poster upon poster upon poster of Abbasshole’s ugly face, staring at me from every lamppost, billboard and wall. They were everywhere, in the hundreds, pasted overnight in [...]
The ascension of the most right-wing government in the Zionist entity’s history to power has produced yet another demonstration of the gulf between reality and the world of dictators and collaborators that have controlled the Palestine-Israel conflict. Here on the ground in Palestine, the suffering and oppression at the hands of the Israeli occupation continues [...]
Some advice: avoid female settlers dressed in Green. Weiss posted another gem today, “In NY synagogue, Israeli settler leader calls for assassination of Abbas — and tax-deductible contributions” (or hear the recording): In a speech at a New York synagogue Wednesday night, Nadia Matar, a leader of the Israeli settlers’ group “Women in Green,” called [...]
“Awww, Hamoodeh, come give mama a hug…” Offer your caption in the comments section.
The puppet controls the puppetmaster. Abu Mazen you sly fox!

This should come as no surprise as Fatah has had few successes – if any – during their decades-long reign over the Palestinian national movement. In recent times, Fatah has produced a string of [...]
Today, the 14th day of the slaughter unleashed by Israel on the destitute refugees of the Gaza Strip, is meant to be a day of rage and solidarity with Gaza across the world. As the number of Palestinians murdered in the Strip closes in on 800, protests erupted across the Arab and Islamic world, with [...]
It has been three days since Israel began raining indiscriminate death carnage on Gaza, and three days of deliberately terrorizing the civilian population there: 350 killed, over 1,600 wounded, 200 in extremely critical condition in overstretched and understocked hospitals. The numbers don’t seem real anymore. It is hard for the sheer scale of the murder [...]
Israel used a ceasefire to starve Gazans and turn them and others against Hamas, making Israel’s goal of eliminating Hamas less objectionable to the international community and congruent to those of Abbas’ PA, and the governments of Jordan and Egypt. Long term planning for the operation included a visit to Egypt by Israeli Foreign Minster [...]
