The U.S. is pushing its colonialist plan, as Israel keeps killing. Mahmoud Abbas is changing election laws to ban Hamas. And a battle is brewing over who speaks for the Palestinian liberation cause.
deception AND illusion, that is all Palestinians have been brutally thrown. as i sit here with afternoon tea the stench of that dead body not yet been buried and the fact that “No proposal has been presented to the Palestinians that grants them any of their rights" so sickens me that i must put down the tea and go for a walk even though it is below freezing out there.
we are ever grateful for your fine work but how you and the Palestinians keep standing given these circumstances........speechless with love and respect
That was explained very well. I have a much better grasp on what’s happening with the negotiations now! Thank you all so much! You’re the best of the best!
More important than ever! The work that the Hind Rajab Foundation is doing will continue to be vital in tracking down and bringing the culprits to justice. This is an ongoing project and worthy of support. Let’s hope they may soon turn their sights on the corporate and governmental accomplices in the west.
He’s practically there right now! Call on Pope Leo XIV to do whatever it takes to save Gaza and stop the bombing, and end the starvation. Let him go to Gaza and stand with the suffering people who are being massacred by Israel and the Western posers. He can go to Gaza right now, and insist aid be allowed in. Then on to the West Bank to end the occupation and apartheid.
Is there anything more important in today's world than this?
I'm not sure that any of the arab states will offer to join a armed force unless it is to establish a Palestinian state. They have no interest in a plan that is outside of international law and that gets rid of UN involvement. Without a mandate, they wont do it. They do not want to be the ones doing Israel's dirty work.
I screamed when Russia didn't veto either. It ruined an otherwise happy birthday. This plan that they voted for, is not lawful. Palestine has the inalienable right to self determination and that cannot be got rid of as it is a fundamental rule of international law. Has nobody recognised how ludicrous it is to demand the victim of an ongoing genocide, disarm. That is bonkers and the US, UK or any powerful country would, if in the place of the Palestinians, not be handing over any weapons. I can't imagine such a ridiculous plan has even been thought up let alone endorsed by lots of countries. None of it would stand up in court. Israel must be told to get out of the smaller Palestine post 1967, preferably get out of the middle east. There is something extremely dysfunctional about not being able to get along with other human beings. They repeatedly prove that they are hateful people that love to lie. I would put them in psychiatric prison and force treatment on them for their dangerous personality disorders
and that's just the current UK Labour Party 😂
But Israel needs to know it is a cuckoo terrorist fascist colonial state. The madness comes first.
Shame on the signatories to the UN charter that created this hot mess in the first place…and all for their ‘interests’ in the Middle East! It’s gotten us closer to worldwide annihilation than we’ve ever been. And those signatories were mostly antisemites to boot! You can’t make this stuff up. The only solace I have is in the fact that what goes around comes around, eventually.
i had been wanting to read up on abu mazen, this corrupt traitor to the palestinian cause. i’m sure you didn’t read my thoughts but your comprehensive, detailed piece on him and on so much more provides invaluable material for discussions with friends and other contemporaries who - in complete ignorance of how palestinians have been, and continue to be, erased from history - still think israel has a right to defend itself. and still think that the global north [thanks to its so-called “rules-based order“] has an almost natural right to impose its will at will.
That is the best thing I have read that has captured the full picture. Thank you, it reminded me of the history.
In case there is anyone that doesn't know, Arafat was poisoned by a radioactive isotope. It took a long time to get permission from his relatives to exhume the body. But eventually they did and an international team of specialists went out and tested it and sure enough he had been poisoned. I wondered at the time, because he had started to look so pale. So Mossad (I assume) bumped him off?

My thoughts succinctly put .
Free Free Palestine
This is such a sad fustrating situation that the Palestinians are still going through. Thanks Jeremy for letting us also feel it in our own way.
Many thanks for this detailed and enlightening article. I hope everyone reads it carefully.

As the current Security Council becomes more and more gutless and hence, pointless, it is way overdue for a re-boot.
