POPSIsreali Envoy to US disciplined for telling the truth An Isreali envoy in Boston has been recalled to Isreal and publicly disciplined for saying that Netanyahu's imperial expansionist policy in Palestine has hurt its relations with the US. How long are people going to keep pretending that Israel is the "Good Guy" in the Middle East?

POPSIsreali Propaganda Cartoon There's a certain irony that someone from a nation that's actively stealing land from other people should hint that their victims have imperialistic intentions. Projecting much, buddy?

POPSDoes Palestinian Have a Right to Exist?
I find it interesting how empty is the pro-Israel propaganda, such as the constantly repeated statement: "Does Israel have a right to exist?" How about Palestine having a right to exist? Or, the empty pro-Isreali statement: "Israel has a right to defend itself." How about Palestinians having a right to defend themselves? So this pro-Israeli propaganda, empty of content because it can be applied to every person on the face of the earth...without need to even say it is a "right," because it's more like Natural Law to defend yourself from attack, false imprisonment, starvation, destruction of your homes, seizing of your lands, destruction of your property, etc. The empty article and USA & UK recent comments also never mention the Israeli blockade that has slowly been starving to death a million and a half people in front of our eyes. It's appropriate to fight back against being starved to death. A blockade is an act of war. Hamas wants the blockade lifted, Let's t

POPSUN General Assembly calls Israel an "Apartheid State" For those of you who are old enough to remember the time, what did you do and where did you stand on the issue of South African Apartheid? I know where I stood then and still do now. I'm with the UN Declaration of Human Rights . South Africa was forced to change when the civilized world turned it's back on them and enforce embargoes and divestment on them. Everything old is new again. Go to IfAmericansknew.org for more details on what manner of Apartheid our American tax dollars buys in Occupied Palestine.

POPSJoe the Plumber Agrees: Obama would "bring Death to Israel."
This is just another sample of the hostile and extreme inflammatory language that has been a sick part of the anti-Obama campaign Obama the terrorist. Obama the Muslim Obama the member of a Black 'hate church,' Obama the socialist, the communist, and now: Obama the imminent cause of "The Death of Israel." AIPAC, other Jewish lobbying groups, Isreali leadership and others also feel the same way: Quite an oh so dramatic claim. Like the false claims and distortions of Israel and the Jewish lobby keep saying Iran wants to "Wash Israel into the Sea." Their feelings are so intense that if you rationally try to point out actual policy positions many Jews react as if you're a personal friend of Hitler, or something. (Even though your family fought against Hitler...it makes no difference). Even though Obama went to Jerusalem, put on a skullcap, visited the Holocaust Museum, spoke directly to AIPAC and promised Israel everything they want OTOH McCain does want to bomb Iran, t

POPSSaudis Pushing U.N. Démarche Against Israel The dispute over oil appears to be part of a larger rift between the two countries, with a London-based Al-Quds al-Arabi reporting recently that relations have reached their lowest point in years. The Saudis seek strong American backing against Iran," Mr. Gold, a former Israeli U.N. ambassador who has written extensively on the kingdom, said. "They don't want to hear from Condi Rice about diplomatic progress between Abbas and Israel. They want to know what America is doing about Iran." The Saudis, he said, base their policies on their strong alliance with America — or on Arab consensus. When the Israeli government earlier this month announced that it was planning to build nearly 900 new housing units in Jerusalem, ecretary-General Ban issued a strong statement: Israel's "continued construction in settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory" violates international law and Israel's obligations under the road map and the Annapolis process.

POPSFamous Zionist Quotes: StepAside sexually active Israeli president Moshe Katsav, for the moment, as more pressing thoughts to bother him just now. Strange that he speaks of "do not belong to our continent". I do not believe that the Zionists know that they are in Asia and NOT Europe. The Arabs have been there for ever.

POPSLabanese army offers tea to Isreali Troops during war. "In the video, two Israeli tanks roll up to the gate of the Marjeyoun garrison, where a white surrender flag flutters outside the barracks. Inside, Lebanese soldiers hold trays with glasses of tea, which they offer to the Israelis. The encounter appears merely social."

POPSBook: The Palestinian People If you want to inform youself on this subject. Read this book. It takes a very dispassionate look at the history of the Palestinian People and how they came to be classified as a people, and also at their relationship with the Isrealis. With what is going on today I recommend this book and as I said, this book is dispassionate, you will not be screaming at this book about Isreali bias or Palestinian bias.
