POPSUK medics go on Hunger Strike: Prevented from giving aid!!! The cardiac surgeon took a month's holiday from work to take part in the mission for the Manchester-based charity Palestine International Medical Aid (PIMA) "This is very important for us," he said. "There are loads of people with heart disease . They can't get here , they can't get to Israel. If it's this hard for us to get to, how difficult is it for the Palestinians to get out?" PIMA's director, Dr Ahmed Almari, said: "It's unbelievable. They're a group of doctors, they went for education and teaching, to set up a cardiac unit. It's unfair and sad that it is only as a result of a hunger strike that anybody pays attention. There's no reason to stop them from crossing."

POPSAgain Blood-Money Returned. Not worth One Gaza Child's Life. UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Palestine condemned ‘the recent wave of eviction orders and demolitions of Palestinian houses’. Israel’s ongoing crimes include the murder of unarmed protesters, the burning of olive groves and other farmland, the continued imposition of a brutal siege of Gaza, and the extension of its apartheid Wall, declared illegal by the International Court. It is unbearable that EIFF should accept sponsorship from such a Government.

POPSYou Be The Judge "Similarly, it is acceptable to argue that Israel's offensive in Gaza was wrong -- but it would be anti-Semitic to criticize Israel on the grounds that Jews are dirty, greedy or sinister. The Foxmans and Dershowitzes say that comparing Israelis to Nazis is, in the final analysis, anti-Semitic because it is so demonstrably untrue and so patently disingenuous. Even Israel's fiercest critics, they argue, ought to concede that the country's actions have been taken in its own defense -- even if one believes that defense was misguided or disproportionately violent or even criminal. Further, they say that the number of Palestinian deaths during the 60-year conflict can't begin to compare to the 6 million Jews who died in the Holocaust. To suggest a moral equivalency is anti-Semitic because it's so absurd."

POPSShame USA: Tactics worthy of Goebbels/Zionists Goebbels and the Zionist favourite tactic is to blame the victim for their own deaths. Without ANY evidence, the US military's response was to blame the Taliban for the HUGE number of civilian fatalities in Afghanistan!!! Is the logic that if it worked in Gaza, why not for the US in Afghanistan? If any independent investigation shows evidence of this monstrous charge, I'll never ever clip anything about the US army or Goebbels! I Promise.

POPSBBC: US Afghan strikes 'killed dozens' <Video> There is also a mass grave to be seen on TV as there were mainly only bits of bodies to bury. It's very difficult to focus on the massacres in Gaza by the Zionists when the US military spokespersons attempt to justify the killing of children using similar language as the Nazionists. Do they all attend the same 'PR' school?

POPSHa'aretz: "UN demands payback for Gaza damages" Ban Ki-moon accused Israel yesterday of lying about attacks on the facilities, including one said to have killed more than 40 people outside a school compound, and formally demanded compensation. He said a UN investigation found conclusively that Israel was responsible for attacks on several schools, a health clinic and the organization's Gaza headquarters. Some of the weapons used in these attacks contained white phosphorous ... Ha'aretz

POPSUN accuses Israel of Gaza 'negligence or recklessness' It found the Israeli military's actions "involved varying degrees of negligence or recklessness", and that the military took "inadequate" precautions towards UN premises. It said the deaths of civilians should be investigated under the rules of international humanitarian law. The UN should take action "to seek accountability and pursue claims to secure reparation or reimbursement" for UN expenses and payments over deaths or injury to UN staff and damage to UN property where the responsibility lay with Israel, Hamas or any other party, the report added. In total, more than $11m worth of damage was caused to UN premises. The inquiry looked in detail at nine incidents, in which several Palestinians died. It found the Israeli military responsible in seven cases where it had "breached the inviolability" of the UN. ... Guardian

POPSHa'aretz: "Sadly, Israel is no longer democratic" The long-term evidence of abuse by soldiers against civilians at the checkpoints - including repeated instances of expectant mothers who are forced to give birth in the middle of the road, surrounded by armed soldiers who laugh wickedly -is no secret either. Day after day, year after year, the most moral army in the world helps to steal lands , uproot trees, steal water, close roads - in the service of the righteous "Jewish and democratic" state and with its support. It's heartbreaking, but the State of Israel is no longer democratic. We are living in an ethnocracy under "Jewish and democratic" rule. Our sages have said: "Don't be overly righteous." And there is absolutely no question that dropping cluster bombs in an area populated by civilians, as we did in the Second Lebanon War, does not testify to great righteousness. The same thing can be said of using phosphorus bombs against a civilian population. ... Ha'aretz

POPSJTA distorts "to imply that anti-Zionism is anti-Semitic" Zionists and their panderers are enemies of the entire human race!!!! Zionism is nothing other than ethnic Ashkenazi Nazism, and it is simply racist to believe that Jews of all people on the planet could not be Nazi!!! Most of the anti-Israel leaders and activists on-campus are Jewish!!!! ... fta

POPSHa'aretz: "Experts say he was shot while sitting. Point blank."!!! Death was extensive bleeding!!! Abu Hashhash rushed to the hospital and saw the body: He says he noticed handcuff marks on the wrists. The entry wound was in the stomach and the exit wound was in the thigh. Experts say Temeizi was shot while sitting. Point blank . An autopsy was performed at the Abu Dis pathology institute and Abu Hashhash received the results; he said the reported cause of death was extensive bleeding. ... Haaretz Why shoot a bound man? Why not? Because they could, with impunity, while their buddies were targeting children in Gaza. So, why not.

POPS"If you do something for long enough, the world will accept it" Goebbels? Israel's campaign to rewrite international law to its advantage is deliberate and knowing. As the former head of Israel's 20-lawyer International Law Division in the Military Advocate General's office, Daniel Reisner, recently stated: ... sfgate George Bisharat is a professor of law at Hastings College of the Law in San Francisco, and writes frequently on law and politics in the Middle East.

POPSABC: "UN to Probe Alleged Israeli Crimes in Gaza" "Israel refused to say if it would cooperate" which translates so NO cooperation, as usual. With Goldstone being a Jew, will this be classified as a whitewash or will he too be another 'self-hating Jew'? Extraordinary choice! He cannot win. A poisoned chalice?! You would have to wonder.

POPSOMG. Zionist are SORRY. Whatever next? No Child Killing? If things keep going like this, no one will have anything to atone for when Yom Kippur comes around... Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, is many months away, but it seems as if everyone is saying sorry to everyone else. ... McClatchy A start. Now if the beggar-bowl was dumped, and the hate-crime hoaxes stopped, then the REAL victims of Zionism might receive justice.

POPSAP: "Interviews support Israeli army misconduct in Gaza" "The accounts, published in two Israeli newspapers last week, further fueled international outrage over the Gaza offensive. Israel, which invaded Gaza to end years of rocket attacks by Hamas militants on Israeli towns, is already under international scrutiny about whether it used disproportionate force and failed to protect civilians. Gaza's Hamas rulers have been criticized for targeting civilian areas and using Palestinians as human shields. Senior military officials have acknowledged using massive firepower in Gaza to deter Hamas gunmen and prevent casualties among Israeli forces. The offensive was unprecedented in its deadliness, and contrasted with the smaller, pinpoint operations of the past in Gaza." ... AP

POPSJPost: "Israel has rarely looked this bad in European eyes"!!! British supermarkets are being pressed by critics of Israeli settlement policy to initiate a new labelling practice, whereby goods from Palestinian and Israeli producers are respectively marked as such, so that British consumers will know whether they are buying Israeli or Palestinian products. What begins in the UK, the activists with whom I spoke this week further noted, could quickly spread to Europe - where, incidentally, there have already been some extremist-organized consumer protests against the sale of Israeli products, and where Sweden will soon be succeeding the notably more sympathetic-to-Israel Czech Republic as president of the EU. ...JPost

POPSBrilliant Cartoon. Anti-Semitic or anti-Zionist?! Oliphant's political cartoon about the Israel-Gaza conflict has sparked a predictable uproar from ADL, who see the cartoon as anti-Semitic. How does one respond to the sight of a Star of David mutant with giant teeth and one evil eye fixated on a defenceless tiny woman, holding a baby? I'm confident that its message is anti-Israel, not anti-Semitic. Israel is obviously the jack-booted headless figure carrying the sword and Star of David as weapons. The jack-boots and goose-stepping are meant to provoke the reader with comparisons to a Nazi storm-trooper. Right?

POPSHaaretz:" Netanyahu, Lieberman 'struck secret deal for West Bank construction''" Fascist Zionist conspirators pull the US chain really hard. America's sob to a two state solution is sunk. How much US taxpayers will be needed to build these illegal settlements? How many years before the US pays again to demolish and rebuild these wandering thieves fortresses as in Gaza? Would not the Chinese be right to pull the plug on the waste of their money with NO return and no end to the Zionist beggar-bowl?
