Nikki Haley’s view of Gaza is through Israeli eyes only
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley came to Israel to see the conflict up close. It’s a shame that when it came to Gaza, she only got one perspective. By Yoni Mendel “We are at the height of an important visit from UN Ambassador Nikki Haley in Israel. We are visiting the towns…

UNESCO’s mistake on Jerusalem
The resolution was yet another shallow attack on identity elements, the same type I reject every time Israel does it to Palestinians. It was also a setback to the kind of UN action that could actually move the bar in a region that desperately needs it. UNESCO has made a startlingly bad move in voting…

There is no ‘day after’ Netanyahu
Short of allowing Palestinians to establish an independent state, there is nothing Netanyahu won’t do to ensure his political survival. Liberal Israeli columnist and Channel 10’s top political commentator Raviv Drucker published a piece in Haaretz Sunday, in which he waxes optimistic about the “day after Netanyahu” and who could possibly take over and bring…

Likud MK: Israeli hikers can help in identifying terrorists
The Knesset is outlawing Nazi references, but stupidity is still legal. [Likud MK] Danny Danon – דני דנון I held an emergency meeting in the Knesset on the Thailand travel warning for Israeli tourists. The Counter-Terrorism Bureau clarified that there are still high alerts. I decided to send a public letterthrough Chabad and other Israeli…

The way to beat the fascists? Let them go wild
Why waste all this energy on small victories against the powerful right? Let them hit the wall. Hard. The social networks today were all abuzz with a big victory for the left over the right. Bank Leumi, the largest bank in Israel, was forced to freeze a charity campaign when customers discovered that money they…

Likud MK gives a nod to his role model: “McCarthy was right”
Likud MK Ophir Akunis defends his aggressive anti-democratic legislation in Channel 10 interview: “Joe McCarthy was right about everything” It’s amazing how just a few words of criticism from U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who voiced fear for Israel’s democracy and women’s rights yesterday, can really make some people show their true face, as…

Israel reenacts ‘Zionist triumph’ of 1948 Palestine partition plan
Today, exactly 64 years ago, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 181 to end the British Mandate in Palestine and partition the territory, giving international legitimacy to the establishment of a Jewish nation-state somewhere in Palestine, as well as the notion of two states for two distinct nationalist identities, one Jewish and one Arab,…

Likud MK can’t decide: Do I support foreign interference or not?
OK, I’m thinking I might have to start writing a Danny Danon daily. His Facebook page is supplying me with material faster than Herman Cain dodges questions on foreign policy. In fact, I think there’s only one question in the world that could make me pause longer than Cain does when asked about Libya (a…

Likud MK: “Delete” Gaza neighborhood for each rocket fired
Likud MK Danny Danon makes me happy. On an almost daily basis. Really. It’s people like him that give me the giggles. And I became an even bigger fan, when he brought over Glenn Beck to Israel. Because Beck actually gives me the giggles more than Danon. When I saw both of them at the…

President Obama to GA: Palestinians & Israelis must work it out on their own
United Nations — Looking wan and dispirited, President Obama addressed the opening of the General Assembly on Wednesday morning. Speaking without passion on a range of issues under the rubric of the pursuit of peace, he conveyed the impression that he was reluctantly reading a politically expedient speech. In the year of the Arab Spring,…

Likud and Glenn Beck: the two-headed monster
There’s much bewilderment about how the ruling party in Israel came to endorse someone like Glenn Beck. But the truth is that they are a perfect match – and while Beck is talking the (crazy) talk, it’s the Likud that’s actually walking the walk. Reflecting on Glenn Beck’s visit, Haaretz puzzles (rather naively): “It is…

Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Courage” rally in Jerusalem ends with a whimper
Could a dull event in Jerusalem, in front of just 1,000 people, spell the end of Glenn Beck? It must have been pretty rough for Glenn Beck to see this: After months of preparations, hours of television and radio talk all geared up for the big day, tons of merchandise manufactured, Glenn Beck could just…

Rightist MKs seek Knesset veto over Supreme Court
This is what an attempt at a fascist coup looks like – Likud MKs enraged by court petitions against the boycott bill are now pushing for legislation granting the Knesset a veto over Supreme Court appointments. Such a law would destroy the separation of powers in Israel – and although it’s likely to fail this…
