Care and Feeding of the Holocaust Elephant in the Room (spiced up by Ahmadinejad)

By Mary Rizzo • Oct 11th, 2009 • Category: Features, Hasbara Deconstruction Site, Israel, Newswire, Palestine, Resistance, War, Zionism

While Netanyahu and the West rant and rage about the alleged sins of Iran’s President in order to help Israel stay on the top of the game, we see another really bizarre trend in this “constant reminder of the Holocaust”. Surprise surprise, it’s not only the main theme for those whose purpose for existing is to enable Israel who are keeping the “constant reminders of the Holocaust” in the place of prominence. It is also the committed anti-Zionists who like to keep this fil rouge of Ahmadi and the Holocaust running.

From Aggression to Victimhood: David Aaronovitch (or How the Mighty Fall)

By Mary Rizzo • Apr 25th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Counter-terrorism, No thanks!, Gilad Atzmon, Internet and Communication, Israel, Newswire, Religion, Resistance, War, Zionism

WRITTEN BY MARY RIZZO Like anybody, we love to watch false idols crumble, and when rabid Zionist and war advocate Aaronovitch hit the floor with a crash, it was actually one of the most amusing moments in recent political public events. We got to hear, and in some cases, to see the man who considers [...]



Dima Omar – So what did we learn about anti-Semitism?

By Guest Post • Apr 6th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Education, Gilad Atzmon, Hasbara Deconstruction Site, Israel, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Religion, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, War, Zionism

Well, not much really…. Just that when you invite people who don’t consider each other to be “within the pale”, as British columnist David Aaronovitch said, then the discussion on anti-Semitism turns into character assassination.  
No one expected a calm discussion during the debate entitled “Anti-Semitism – Alive and Well in Europe?”, which was organised by [...]

INTERVIEW BY Sebastian Scotney
"Are you a Londoner now?" , I asked Cricklewood resident Gilad Atzmon.
He paused for thought. And for a very brief moment, I imagined I had achieved the impossible and caught him short of an answer.
Atzmon is one of the most articulate, confident and powerful communicators around. Not just as a musician, but [...]

Speech delivered by Nadine Rosa-Rosso at the The Beirut International Forum for Resistance, Anti-Imperialism, Solidarity between Peoples and Alternatives, held from January 16 to 18, 2009. 
The key question in this forum is how to support resistance against imperialism across the world. As an independent Belgian communist activist I would like to focus on the position [...]



They never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity: Secular "Anti-Zionist" Jewish groups echo Zionist groups

By Mary Rizzo • Feb 2nd, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Features, Israel, Mary's Choice, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Religion, Resistance, War, Zionism

WRITTEN BY MARY RIZZO – A very strange thing is happening at this moment within a circle of people who like to consider themselves at the cutting edge of the struggle for the Palestine, and we are referring to the individuals who classify themselves as Secular Anti-Zionist Jews, and consider themselves to be the "independent" [...]



PTT pride: Erdogan at World Economic Forum cites our editor Gilad Atzmon

By Mary Rizzo • Jan 30th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Biography, Counter-terrorism, No thanks!, Features, Gilad Atzmon, Israel, Middle East Issues, Newswire, Palestine, Religion, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, War, Zionism

The World Economic Forum at Davos had an incredible moment of truth… After Shimon Peres was allowed to justify the wanton killing that the Jewish State engaged in over the territory they have strangled with their inhumane blockade, (and received applause for it by the men and women waiting for their champaign glasses to be [...]
