Ramzy Baroud – Fatah: A New Beginning or an Imminent End?

By Ramzy Baroud • Aug 13th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Features, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance

This is hardly the rational order of things. An overpowering military occupation was meant to be resisted by an equally determined, focused and unyielding national movement, hell-bent on liberation at any cost and by any means. This is the unwritten law that has governed and shielded successful national liberation projects throughout history. The Fatah movement, [...]



Interview with Khalida Jarrar, Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine

By Mary Rizzo • Aug 5th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Interviews, Israel, Mary's Choice, Newswire, Palestine, Religion, Resistance, Zionism

Let’s start with the PFLP opinion about the Obama administration and the new Israeli government. Do you think that the new US administration will bring any change to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?
We do not think individuals can do a lot for the policy of a country. I believe that Obama will not bring any substantial change, [...]



Kawther Salam – Confrontation with Eyal from Ben-Gurion Security

By Kawther Salam • Aug 3rd, 2009 • Category: Features, Israel, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, Zionism

I received a hateful comment from an Israeli calling himself “Eyal”, which goes far beyond the usual hateful rubbish which these people write. I wonder why “Eyal” from the Systems Security of the Israeli Airport Authority (Ben-Gurion Airport) left a comment on my articles “Names and Photos of the Israeli War criminals”. “Eyal” appears to [...]



Adel Samara – What if Palestinian Feminism was Class Oriented?

By Adel Samara • Jul 23rd, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Culture and Heritage, Features, Israel, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Religion, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, Zionism

(In the picture, all woman march in Bil'in, poster says, "We will protest the wall till it falls!") While writing my coming book about women, I had the opportunity to read two books published in Arabic and dealt with Palestinian women in West Bank and Gaza Strip (WBG).
What I offer here is not a review of [...]



Sami Jamil Jadallah – Diaspora Palestinians: Act Now Before It Is Too Late!

By Sami Jamil Jadallah • Jun 8th, 2009 • Category: Action Alert, Culture and Heritage, Israel, Newswire, Palestine, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, Zionism

If no actions are taken and taken soon, the Diaspora Palestinians – all without exception – would have forfeited their inalienable rights to qualified and professional representations in the final peace negotiations that will take place soon between the Palestine Liberation Organization, the Palestinian Authority Israel and the United States.
 
I understand and know there are [...]



The Palestinians; The Right of Return and the Right of Choice

By Sami Jamil Jadallah • May 21st, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Israel, Nakba and Right of Return, Newswire, Palestine, Zionism

Today, May 15th marks the 61st anniversary of the Nakba, or Exile of Palestinians from their homes, villages and farms: driven out by the raging Jewish terrorist groups in their mission to establish the State of Israel. 45 years also passed since the establishment of the PLO as the Palestinian Liberation Organization dedicated to the [...]



Sami Jamil Jadallah – The Forbidden Debate

By Sami Jamil Jadallah • Feb 7th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Features, Israel, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, War, Zionism

In the US and the West, we are able and free to debate God and HIS/HER existence, debate Jesus, Moses, Mohamed, debate America, its failures and its successes, debate our constitution and its interpretations. We are free to debate George Bush and his stupidity, his crimes against America and the world, and his many failures. [...]



Nicola Nasser – Gaza New Siege Mechanism

By Guest Post • Feb 4th, 2009 • Category: Analysis, Features, Israel, Newswire, Palestine, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, War, Zionism

The rebuilding of Gaza has become the latest siege weapon. The Israeli occupation, the US that had backed its offensive, and the EU which did nothing to stop it are conspiring to turn the reconstruction process into a means to produce a suitable "peace partner" while the Arab summit in Kuwait hopes to use it [...]



Sami Jamil Jadallah – Sabra and Shatilla, Time to Bring the Guilty to Trial

By Sami Jamil Jadallah • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Middle East Issues, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, War

Perhaps it it time to bring criminal and civil charges against the PLO, USA, Syria and Lebanese Forces for the massacres in Lebanon.
By Sami Jamil Jadallah
As was expected, the Palestinian leadership sitting in Ramallah and around the world did not make a mention of or remembers the massacre of some 5,000 Palestinians civilians massacred in [...]



Yousef Abudayyeh – It Was Never About Borders

By Yousef Abudayyeh • Oct 15th, 2008 • Category: Analysis, Culture and Heritage, Features, Israel, Newswire, Opinions and Letters, Palestine, Quotes, Resistance, Somoud: Arab Voices of Resistance, Zionism

The Palestinian-Zionist conflict is not about disputed borders, it's about the very existence of the indigenous inhabitants of Palestine. The Zionist invaders came to Palestine because according to the Zionists, Palestine was a land with no people and needed to be filled with "people who have no land."
Unless the whole world and especially the Arab [...]
