• Occupy Wall Street and the struggle over Israel/Palestine
  • andrewfelluss November 10, 2011 at 1:45 pm

    For DS, the Nakba was worth it for his precious fantasy about "jewish self-determination". Take the pigeon shit out of your eyes.

    I was there at the EIR Keffiyeh day, and we were all complaining that the "Yehudi" dude should shut up.. He was told to do so in english and farsi before some zionist made a whole scene accusing EIR of supporting his statements.

• Supporting the Other Israel Film Festival is not 'good news'
  • andrewfelluss November 15, 2010 at 12:16 am

    Mobius, this is a very presumptuous comment, and I think you miss the point. Palestinians are asking for people to recognize ALL of their rights, not just witness their oppression so that NIF board members can sleep at night.

    The PACBI guidelines clearly state: "All such events and projects that bring Palestinians and/or Arabs and Israelis together, unless the Israeli side is explicitly supportive of the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and unless the project/event is framed within the explicit context of joint opposition to occupation and other forms of Israeli oppression of the Palestinians, are strong candidates for boycott. "

    Couple that with the JCC's continuous shilling for Brand Israel and the various Israeli sponsors, then this is an obvious case for boycott.

    Also, to presume that there isn't a wide chasm between those in the "Pro-Peace" movement and those who are 100% committed to BDS (and universal human rights) is to fear leaping across.

• Put the settlements in your pocket
  • andrewfelluss September 20, 2010 at 8:39 am

    pondering the occupation's navel.

• Sec'y Clinton seems to equate criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism
  • andrewfelluss July 16, 2010 at 1:36 pm with 1 replies

    Israel is inherently antisemitic.

• Has he no shame?
  • andrewfelluss May 11, 2010 at 1:08 pm

    Dershowitz arrogantly thinks he can sway public opinion to win the case for Zionism. However, in his arrogance he fails to notice that while juries are dismissed, justice can wait for a long time.

• Why 'hafrada' shouldn't replace apartheid in our discussions about Israel/Palestine
  • andrewfelluss April 20, 2010 at 8:21 pm

    thanks for clearing that up Kadi :) Apartheid is a clearly defined crime against humanity which Israel violates daily, not only in the Occupied Territories, but with it's denial of refugee rights and 2nd class citizenship for "non-jews". South Africa was the precedent, but not the exclusive domain. If Israel doesn't like the term, then STOP PRACTICING IT!!

• Gehry... Santana... chain reaction?
  • andrewfelluss February 5, 2010 at 11:57 pm

    On topic: here's to chain reaction: link to artistsagainstapartheid.org

• Al Jazeera show on Jerusalem shows the future of the Israel/Palestine debate
  • andrewfelluss December 8, 2009 at 6:40 am

    great points Ahmed..
    euphemisms confuse the general public, and give too much credibility to Zionism..

• 'Tikkun' dares readers to imagine one-state future
  • andrewfelluss November 27, 2009 at 12:25 am with 1 replies

    Witty says 'The diminishment of “legitimacy” that Ali Abunimeh and Philip describes is not accurate.'
    I'm not sure of Witty's age, but I sense that those who may remember 1967, might think of the occupation as a state of abnormality, which must be unclenched to restore to an Israel that is more accepted, with maybe a few more settlements than they started with. I was born in 1973, and have no recollection of a more "tame" Israel that didn't occupy and dispossess Palestinians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, or Gaza. Therefore, I have no sentimentality for its legitimacy... and feel that any it may have had has been forfeited by decades of zionist oppression, and failure to meet obligations to the UN, its expended friend.

• Delegitimization is moving fast. What next?
  • andrewfelluss November 25, 2009 at 8:55 pm with 1 replies

    something I heard from my filipino friend: there were Muslims in the south BEFORE the spanish colonial era. so in a sense, they are still resisting occupation.

• The situation, in a nutshell
  • andrewfelluss November 21, 2009 at 12:48 pm

    tree, i like the micro-zionism analogy.. Guess Who's coming to dinner: Benjamin Yahoo!
    sorry for the typo 'guarantee'..
    it's amazing how people will cherrypick the parts of Israel they like (or would like to see), without looking at the big picture: Continuous Transfer.

    carnas, this idea of yours called Zionism (to create a Jewish State in Palestine) is a failed idea, and with good reason. You can't just push people off their land and then try to negotiate a "final status" of injustice... The cost of pursuing this awful idea is more Palestinians lives and land, less Jewish safety... you can't guaranteed freedom from persecution by persecuting other people. It just doesn't add up buddy, sorry you've been brainwashed.

• US-Israel identity crisis
  • andrewfelluss November 13, 2009 at 10:49 pm

    the difference is that State-backed terror is sold by the media as defending our freedoms... while rogue terror is used as an excuse to take them away. thanks alot OBL Bush, Cheney and Olmert.

• Daniel Levy clarifies re boycott
  • andrewfelluss November 13, 2009 at 9:20 am

    people seem really scared of getting associated with BDS. (remember semantics about boycott language re: Toronto Declaration) good for BDS! bad for Zionism. Ni!

• Anti-anti-semitism (Colonist rabbi issues book giving rules on when it's cool to kill gentiles)
  • andrewfelluss November 9, 2009 at 11:42 pm

    i agree, seems like the settlers are delusional warm bodies being used as pawns to pioneer the landgrab under the watchful eyed of the IDF. another function they serve is to assist in the persecution of the Palestinians, maintaining the "transfer" pressure.

• Gasp-- Clinton praises Netanyahu as he destroys more Palestinian homes
  • andrewfelluss November 1, 2009 at 11:17 am with 2 replies

    ...and yes to BDS! Witty would drain all of our energy with rhetoric that we could be using on BDS campaigns.

  • andrewfelluss November 1, 2009 at 11:13 am with 5 replies

    Phil, i would consider being called out like that as a badge of honor. J Street might just be a fabrication to provide context for white-house policy, which seems to be: aggressively seal deal with uncle-tom to sell out Palestinians, retain a zionist state, and create bantustan-west bank . There's little concern from the white house that Abbas has no credibility, let alone the ongoing flagrant oppression of Palestinians in all quarters.

    The real left acknowledges "jewish democracy" as an oxymoron.

• The Toronto Declaration hits Canadian airwaves, continuing the debate

• Birthright gone wild
  • andrewfelluss September 4, 2009 at 12:25 pm

    puke-o-rama...
    that's a pretty twisted campaign to prop israel up as a progressive fountain of falafel. more like cauldron of hate.

• dog days (and feverish nights)
  • andrewfelluss August 18, 2009 at 8:40 am

    I have to agree with #12, you guys are on the pulse of things, and a beacon to journalism. With the amount of traffic, there are several ways to monetize, even just renting banner ads.

• Israeli diplomat: Israel is endangering American Jewish support by challenging Obama
  • andrewfelluss August 7, 2009 at 11:05 am

    I don't think Benny Yahoo is exactly bashful.

    Obama promised a Jewish state, "easing up the throttle" is pragmatically what those realist zionists in the USA see as the strategy to pull it off. still they can't hold back the pitbulls...

• Clinton minces words for the E. J'lem atrocity
  • andrewfelluss August 6, 2009 at 6:43 am

    maybe obama, mitchell, clinton, et al.. will realize that it's hard to negotiate with war criminals

• 'I am homeless' 'This is a Jewish country' (voices from the evictions in E. Jerusalem)
  • andrewfelluss August 3, 2009 at 3:15 pm

    These families are now twice refugees. OK, the Israeli supreme court is "enforcing" this likely-bogus property claim on occupied lands from the Ottoman era!!
    link to americanchronicle.com
    but what about property claims of Palestinian refugees from post 1948, where the Israeli supreme court actually has legal jurisdiction?
    We don't have to dig too deep to find the inherent bias in Zionist courts.

• The ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem continues
  • andrewfelluss August 2, 2009 at 8:13 pm

    new article in NYT misses E Jerusalem evictions.. (or omits as 'unhelpful')

  • andrewfelluss August 2, 2009 at 4:25 pm

    shame, shame, shame... the whole world is watching.

• Define 'success' (in the era of the Israel lobby)

    that is so Harvard
