The United States government will formally designate the anti-Israel boycott movement “anti-Semitic” and immediately start cracking down on groups affiliated with it, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced Thursday during a visit to Israel, calling BDS a “cancer.” “Today I want to make one announcement with respect to a decision by the State Department that we will regard the global anti-Israel BDS campaign as anti-Semitic,” he said, standing next to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a joint statement to the press. “I know this may sound simple to you, Mr. Prime Minister, it...

Trump and Netanyahu’s Plan B
Trump and Netanyahu first tried to bribe the Palestinians into capitulating to the Israeli imposition. But the two men failed. So now they are executing Plan B: bribing the Arab states' rulers to give up even the pretense of championing the Palestinians in their struggle against Israel. In that, the two are succeeding.
Hitman Kills Son of Judge Overseeing Deutsche Bank-Epstein Trial
Now that is some 100-level gangster sh*t right there. You might have thought a federal judge overseeing a case brought by the U.S. Department of Justice was untouchable. But you would be wrong. So did the bank have her son killed? Did Benjamin Netanyahu do it? Or was it Bill Clinton? Or Her Highness's Royal Hit Squad? Think the judge got the message? Did you? Update: okay, well, who knows? -- "authorities" now say the murderer was a lawyer with a parochial grievance. Could be. He's also dead, so there's no asking...
Microchipped Children, Forced Testing, House Arrests; Welcome To The New World
Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”—C.S. Lewis Israel Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu suggested that children should have a microchip sensor that would warn them when people are getting too close: "While speaking at a...
The Evil Benny Gantz Backs Down Before the Much More Evil Benjamin Netanyahu
After all, it's an emergency and everything.
The Evil Benjamin Netanyahu Finally Deposed?
New York Times: Benny Gantz, With Thin Majority, Wins Chance to Form an Israeli Government
Palestinians as Pawns
Trump's "vision" for Palestine well illustrates that in his eyes (not to mention the eyes of Netanyahu, Kushner, and others), the Palestinians are mere pawns to be manipulated in the service of Israel's and Trump's designs. This can be readily seen in an obscure provision of Trump's plan, which "contemplates the possibility" that Israel and the future pseudo-state of Palestine could together redraw their boundaries so that nearly a dozen Palestinian towns within Israel, in an area adjacent to the line separating Israel from the West Bank known as the Triangle, would become part of the...
Trump Lays an Egg: The Israel/Palestine Vision
Trump's long-dreaded diktat to the Palestinians is now public. (See details here and here if you have the stomach for them.) The so-called plan of the century -- the "Vision" -- is pretty much what the early reports described, so I have little to add to what I wrote before. (My articles are here, here, and here. You can find more in my book Coming to Palestine.) Suffice it say here that this "plan" is dead on arrival. The Palestinians will not be bribed by a $50 billion jobs program to give up their hope of full rights, which would never be achieved in Trump's proposed Palestinian...
Israel Will Stay Forever in Areas They Stole in 1967 War
Not that you were so foolish as to believe the Israeli government would ever allow Palestinian independence. But for the record, again: Israel has already de facto annexed the last of Palestine 52 years ago. It is an apartheid state, not a democracy, and is certainly no ally of the USA: Israel liberated Jerusalem, Hebron, Judea and Samaria and the Golan Heights 52 years ago and will stay there forever, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday night at the traditional Jerusalem Day Celebration at the Mercaz Harav yeshiva in the capital. Netanyahu, who began his speech to the cheering...
Benjamin Netanyahu Added to the Terrorist List
Okay, well, he sure belongs there.
