In my Palestinian grandfather’s story, I find reasons to endure
Like all refugees, Ahmad Badawi Mustafa Ayoub left the world unmoored, his memories rent from the land that made them. But his story, like Palestine’s itself, will matter well beyond the next negotiation. No empire, no flag, or sovereign can change that. The Government of Palestine’s Directorate of Education, from its Samaria branch in Nablus, informed Ahmad…

The American strategic mistake in Syria no one’s talking about
For all the talk of intervention or lack of intervention, there’s one strategic error the U.S. made in Syria that nobody’s discussing — President Bill Clinton’s failure to give full American backing to an Israel-Syria peace deal when it was still possible. By Gilad Halpern The headline “A president is born” is probably being written…

Yair Lapid on Hillary handshake: ‘I met my buddy’s wife…’
Israel’s Mr. Liberal went to the Saban Forum in Washington D.C. and met this woman he’s seen somewhere, a lawyer maybe? Bill’s wife, you guys know Bill. Yair Lapid, leader of the third largest party in the opposition (a far cry from his briefly held title of the great white hope of Israeli moderates, way…

There is no reason to trust Benjamin Netanyahu
Netanyahu can backpedal all he wants, but now it is clear even to his biggest champions that he is no longer interested in the two-state solution. Now it’s up to the White House to take a stand. Prime Minister Netanyahu’s landslide election victory on Tuesday stunned even the biggest pessimists. What looked like a possible…

No, Abe Foxman, America is not out to get the Jews
The U.S. Jewish establishment is starting to say publicly that anti-Semitism is the reason Jonathan Pollard is still in prison. This is sickening slander that reflects a deep-seated psychological problem. Abraham Foxman, long-time leader of the Anti-Defamation League, capo di tutti capi of the Israel lobby, scourge of all scourges of anti-Semitism (real or…

Arms dealers, major capitalists fund Peres’ 90th birthday bash
Israeli President Shimon Peres’ 90th birthday was the central show aired on all three Israeli TV channels Tuesday night. A look into who paid for the extravagant bash? It was an 11-million shekel production dubbed by many as a “North Korea-style event” for the man who brought ‘The Bomb’ to Israel, tried to offer it…

Yair Lapid vs. Bill Clinton: Clash of the musical politicians
Do a politician’s musical talents – or lack thereof – say anything about his political capabilities? I remember the first time I heard Bill Clinton play sax. I mean, I don’t remember exactly where I was, I just remember I was astonished. Pretty much like everybody else, I thought it was pretty cool the Prez…

Fact Sheet: 25th anniversary of the First Intifada
Twenty-five years ago this past weekend, a large-scale popular uprising by Palestinians began against Israel’s then 20-year-old military occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza. Sparked by an incident in which four Palestinians were hit and killed by an Israeli driving in Gaza on December 8, 1987, Palestinian frustration at living under repressive…

Did Bill and Hillary just pull a “good cop, bad cop” on Lieberman?
Bill Clinton is known to pretty much say whatever he wants to, whenever he wants to. He’s not a Joe Biden, but he’s out there. Today he allowed himself to show off his expert knowledge of Israeli demographics and voting habits and claimed that the Russian sector was an obstacle to peace. As reported on…

It’s time the US talked to Hamas
The positive reports coming out of the Israeli-American-Palestinian summit in Sharm el Sheikh– like those which came from Washington a week earlier – shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Diplomacy: Is Obama leading us to a new Camp David?
Last week, the Arab League authorized Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas to engage in direct negotiations with Israel. Abbas is still refusing the talks, but estimates are it’s only a matter of weeks before negotiations will be launched. So it seems that the US administration finally got its first achievement: Palestinians and Israelis will be talking…
