Bibi is mad dog, armed with nuclear weapons. Until Israel joins the NPT, he'd be better served by keeping his mouth shut. If GW Bush had really wanted to eliminate a rogue nuclear weapons program in the Middle East, he should have invaded Israel. That might be the only solution: a total defeat like Nazi Germany, then a de-Zionisation program to root out the mad-dog fascists. Only then could there truly be democracy and equal rights, along with the end of the slave-state apartheid policies of the present.
The real question: where is the Israeli de Klerk?
Mandela got nowhere until the South African apartheid government realized the game was over. Likewise, the usurping Zionist entity must come to the same realization. Otherwise, the only alternative is total military defeat.
Stallman is kind of a crank, and is most definitely NOT the "founder of Linux" - that would be Linus Torvalds.
Spitzer showed himself to be a truly cretinous dipshit in that interview. He's another Nakba-denier, schooled in Zionist hagiography, who probably would collapse in a blubbering heap if he were subjected to a lengthy, no-holds-barred debate in which all the facts could be presented.
If the Palestinians were to follow Tommy Boy's suggestion about staging peaceful marches, they could always carry signs demanding a one-state solution. That would cause both Netanyahu and Tommy Boy to freak out in unison; although Netanyahu would predictably react with another slaughter.
re: "What is it that makes American leaders gush so cravenly when the subject of Israel comes up?"
1. Money
2. Blackmail
Is it "sad" for him, or was he being sarcastic? Seriously, does Cornel West really think Larry Summers is smart? I don't. I think Summers is a dumbass and a douchebag.
$1 Million bought Israel some Coen hasbara.
Big money flows to illegal racist colonies; while Palestinian charities ("Holy Land Foundation") are declared "terrorist" and those who raise funds (Sami Al-Arian) are railroaded. Zionist occupation, what Zionist occupation?
If you read the Playboy interview carefully, you'll see that the interviewer is the one who deliberately tries to confuse the issue by always switching to "Jews" when Helen Thomas starts talking about "Zionists." If anything, Thomas is guilty of being imprecise; that's hardly enough for ludicrous charges of "anti-semitism."
How often does the media mention the names of Palestinians murdered by the Zionist Occupation Forces; and how often do they caterwaul about such events for days on end?
The answer to this question is obvious, of course, and demonstrates the greatly differing values placed on the lives of Zionist crusaders and the indigenous people of Palestine.
Harris demonstrates clearly that he's an Israeli tool and a traitor to the USA.
Reider has fallen victim the racist idea that only Israeli lives count; and that each one lost in violence must be condemned loudly by everyone. Of course, he doesn't apply the same standard when the actions are reversed.
There will be no two state solution. Zionist greed and selfishness killed that possibility long ago. As Shabtai Teveth makes clear in "Ben Gurion and the Palestinian Arabs," the Zionist plan, from the very beginning, was to take all of Palestine and expel the native population. Any other position was just a temporary dodge to buy time. So that strategy continues with Netanyahu's forthcoming grand announcement, which will be more bullshit and intransigence.
It can end like South Africa ended apartheid, or it can end in a total military defeat. Zionist nuttiness, coupled with overweening messianic self-righteousness, makes the latter possibility ever more likely.
David Remnick is a devoted Zionist who fervently pimped the Iraq War for Israel through his chosen medium, Jeffrey Goldberg.
Goldberg, who, as we all know, served in the IOF, should be considered an enemy combatant. Hopefully he'll receive a full Pollard Award sooner rather than later.
"proponents in the public forums that it is seen, do not advocate clear conditions,"
Clear conditions:
1. Repeal all racist laws
2. Enfranchise all residents and refugees
3. Elections, one state.
4. Vote on new constitution, with equal rights for all
5. Reparations, "truth and reconciliation."
Don't play Sun City.

re: "The important question is “what lessons should Israel learn?” Specifically."
1. That the days of the Zionist Crusade in Palestine are numbered.
2. That they should implement a South African-style plan for equality and full civil rights for all.
3. That refusal to recognize this reality leaves them to slowly wither away as a pariah zombie state.
CTS has "no comment" on why the Israeli flag is there. The receptionist, "Patty" was rather grim-sounding on this point and absolutely refused to say anything. She offered to refer to the voicemail of Don Smith, "CEO" of the company, but one suspects that he won't be returning any calls on this matter.
The real question is, where is the Israeli de Klerk?
The BHL piece you linked to is rather sad in its dishonesty and lies. BHL seems deranged, unable to piece together actual facts, so caught up in his accepted hagiography of Zionist purity. What an addled fellow, and how pitiful that France should be saddled with such a shrunken brain as its alleged philisophical figurehead.
The issue is not democratic elections, per se, but the difference between a political choice by the indigenous population vs. invasion, ethnic cleansing, land theft, massacres, and military occupation by foreigners.
Addendum. I'm not in favor of those Islamic-flavored governments I mentioned, either. Just pointing out the total dishonesty in Burston's bullshit ad hominen claims.
Re:
"That is to say, I believe that it is a totally valid position to oppose the idea of any state holding one religion to be specifically and explicitly the religion of that state. But to say that it's okay for Muslims and not okay for Jews, rubs me the wrong way, and I believe it to be bigotry."
This is a really slimy argument.
The fact is, the people in Iran selected an Islamic government. (One might argue about the fairness, lack thereof, in that process; and would have a valid point. But I'll leave that aside for the moment.) One might also point to Sudan, or Algeria, in which Islamic parties won elections. (Again, one might point to problems in the specifics, or the outcome.)
But the point is that the people in those countries did make a choice, of one sort or another. To compare that to invading Zionists who created an occupation regime is a false analogy. To then claim that anyone who does not agree with this false analogy is the essence of dishonest and sleazy rhetoric.
Of course, Burston does not address this point honestly.
Slime.
BULLSHIT, Broder.
By going to war, the bipolar "Obambi/Bushama" creature we have now will be all Bushama, all the time.
Defend America - defeat Zionism.
Seriously, the only way this giant distortion of our political life will end is through the total defeat of Zionism. Hopefully, it can be done relatively peacefully, in the same way the apartheid regime in South Africa was defeated.
In the old West, horse thieves were executed when caught. Should murderous land pirates be treated any better? They knew they were stealing land; they were proud land thieves, unashamed; they would have stolen more if given a chance. "Civilians?" I don't think so.
Precisely. He's fuckin' nuts.
I recall reading that article when it appeared, and being struck by Chabon's plea for Gilda Shalit's freedom; but not a word about the some 10,000 Palestinian prisoners.
Fuck you, Chabon, you Zionist shill.
By the way, that "Kavalier and Clay" book was pretty fucking lame.
What do you expect from a Zionist plant? Obambi is paying back his paymasters.
There's room in Pollard's cell for Goldberg. Either the man is a Mossad agent in fact; or just in deed.
Noam Chomsky is a Zionist. That is the essential fact that colors his worldview of the conflict.
On a broader perspective, I think of Chomsky as an "accountant" of human rights. He's very good at recalling the history of US imperial adventures and abuses, and linking the facts, the players, and actions of the government together over a period of time.
But this vision is always looking backward. Just as an actual accountant is only concerned with counting out past performance, Chomsky seems only capable of dealing with historical facts.
Looking forward, Chomsky has no creative or innovative solutions. He's simply not a creative thinker; he's stuck in a dry analytical mode, and unable to come up with new ideas or solutions. His solution to every problem is always within the established framework of law and order.
As a Zionist, he reveals the ugly side of his self-styled "morality." He constantly excuses the Israeli government and deprecates the power of the Israeli lobby. He's so stuck in his narrow view, that he's unable to really consider other ideas, let alone come up with them himself.
Hamas & Shas, sittin' in the Knesset!
Before you know it, it will be reality.
After all, Shas and Hamas are natural allies.
The Jewish KKK in action.
Horowitz is a witless whore for Zionist racism.
Petraeus won't miss a chance to betray US to International Zionism.
Hey Biden: Fuck you. If you really want no nukes in Iran, get rid of Israel's nukes. Of course, as a Zionist sycophant and an overall dumbass, this idea will never occur to you.
Whether Hertzberg wants to write or not, Remnick, as an avowed Zionist and unapologetic Iraq war booster, is surely muzzling any access to reality.
Too bad someone didn't beat the crap out of those Zionist terrorists.
Dual loyalty? Please. This lousy traitor is a fucking Israeli, and that's all. This motherfucker should be stripped of his US citizenship pronto. Thanks to a loophole inserted by Congressional scumbags, service in the Zionist terror brigades incurs no penalty; a situation that's unique. Any service in any other foreign military is grounds for loss of citizenship. The U. of P. should be ashamed of promoting this lousy traitor.
The money quote:
"We are not chess pieces," said Tibi. "We did not arrive in this country on planes and we did not immigrate here. We do not want to expel anyone from the borders of this country, but if someone wants to expel us, I will say this: He who got here last leaves first. That way, there will be fewer fascists in Israel."
Pfeffer claims it would A-ok if the Times' Taghreed El-Khodary had a son in the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades. Of course, this ignores the fact that the Times would never hire someone in that position in the first place.

"Ethan Bronner"
Dershowitz is a traitor to the American people.
Obmabi's answer showed just how far AIPAC's fist is thrust up his asshole.
F16, artillery, so what? Either way, Zionist thugs destroyed the flour mill, caused tremendous damage and suffering, and should pay for their crimes. Chalk up another case to be resolved by a future Palestinian Holocaust Reparations Committee.
To clarify, yes, drop leaflets first. Give them as much time as the "Israeli" Occupation Forces gave the people of Gaza. Heck, give them TWICE as much time. But then let them experience what they've been meting out to the Palestinians for DECADES. DECADES. Let me repeat that once more. DECADES of massacres, thefts, ethnic cleansing and apartheid. Let the Master Race of the settlers experience some pushback from their rapacious quest for Lebensraum.
Bomb the settlements.
Not to mention all the industrial espionage. They steal it.
re; "Actually, Chomsky declined to engage with Abunimah and Blankfort"
Chomsky is a Zionist.
Witty is a classic Israel-firster.
When you argue with Zionists and Israelis, they often urge you to come visit Israel.
Of course, they never mention these rapacious indignities to which visitors are subjected.
This horror story, of course, if but one among many.
You're just a witless naif, RW.
This article was a really hateful example of Jewish Supremacism. I read it earlier in the day, and was just astounded (well, not really, knowing Bronner's biases) at the one-sided nature of the article. As if no other culture wants to get back someone held hostage!
Bronner is a slimy propagandist.
"Fleischer" is not a Hebrew name. It's a German name, and in German in means "butcher." Quite appropriate, in my opinion.
The "practical issue" is that small matter of ingrained bias. When both of the NYT's correspondents are hardcore Zionists, the alleged adherence to "objectivity" becomes a farce.
Once again CAPITALIZING doesn't MAKE IT SO.
A typical Likudnik trick. Kind of like David Duke claiming he isn't a racist.
Fine talk from witty the Likudnik.
Oh yes, because wittless CAPITALIZED it, that MAKES IT SO.
No, there is no "jewish people." There are jews, and they are people, but they are not distinct from everyone else. They are just another cult; one that has gained tremendous notoriety due to an ultranationalist separatist splinter movement that practices racism, colonialism, land theft, and jewish supremacism.
This is the kind of article that drives Zionists into conniption fits.
Wow! You used the word Palestine. What do you want, a Kadima Kookie Cookie?
J. Street is Kadima to AIPAC's Likud. No real difference between these Gun Zionist camps.
I only managed to watch the first clip and part of the second. At that point, I overloaded on Stewart's hasbara bullshit. No, Jon, only Shimon Peres threatened to "wipe Iran off the face of the earth," not the other way around. No, Jon, there is no evidence to date that Iran is developing nuclear weapons. There is plenty of evidence that Israel actually has nuclear weapons. No Jon, the European Jews are not "from" Palestine; they are invaders and colonial occupiers. There was more bullshit, but I think you get the picture.
Maybe Stewart's Zionist bias is unconscious, but either way, he's hardly taking an honest point of view. Looks like the freaky trio mentioned above aren't the only ones needing some de-brainwashing.
Of course, you're conveniently ignoring the Zionist attempts to ally themselves with Hitler throughout 1940-41.
Zionism is the Jewish version of the KKK. Except worse. Zionism has achieved an acceptance of its sick supremacist goals that the KKK can only dream of. Zionism has achieved a body count of the hated "untermenschen" that the KKK can only dream of. Zionism has obtained nuclear weapons and threatens the world with them. The KKK has at best infantry weapons. Zionism has captured some 95% of the U.S. Congress. The KKK had Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott, at best.
The pioneers of terrorism in the Middle East: On March, 6, 1936, Zionist terrorists threw bombs in Haifa market, killing 18 Palestinians, and injuring 38. On December, 31, 1937, scores of Palestinians were killed and injured when Zionist terrorists threw grenades in the vegetables' market near Nablus gate in Jerusalem. On July, 6th, 1938, 21 Palestinians were killed and 52 were injured when Zionist terrorists detonated two car bombs in Haifa market. On July 15th, 1938, 10 Palestinians were killed and 3 were injured when Zionist terrorists threw grenades at mosques in Jerusalem when worshipers were leaving. On July 25th, 1938, 35 Palestinians were killed and 70 were injured when Zionist terrorists detonated a car bomb in the Arab market in Haifa. On July 26th, 1938, 47 Palestinians were killed and others injured when Zionist terrorists threw grenades in the market of Haifa. On August 26th, 1938, 34 Palestinians were killed and 35 were injured when Zionist terrorists detonated a car bomb in the suq of Jerusalem. On March 27th, 1939, 27 Palestinians were killed and 39 were injured when Zionists terrorists threw grenades in the middle of Haifa. On June 12, 1939, a Zionist terrorist gang attacked the village of Balad Ash-Shaykh and kidnapped five villagers and later killed them. On June 19, 1939 9 Palestinians were killed and 4 injured when Zionist terrorists threw grenades at a crowd of Palestinians. On June 20th, 1947 78 Palestinians were killed and 24 injured when Zionist terrorists put bombs in a crate of vegetables in the suq of Haifa. And on and on and on.

NPR joins the Judeofacist KKK brigade.
I say, send all the European invaders back to Europe. Send the Poles back to Poland; the Russians back to Russia; and Avi and his goons back to Moldova. Everyone else back where they (or their parents came from). I feel sorry for Brooklyn...oh well!
Whatsisname claimed that:
"There are a lot of different opinions about what, exactly, Judaism is; but one characteristic that most people can agree on is that it is comprised of a cohesive group of Jews."
Ummmm, no. I wouldn't say this is antisemitism, per se; it's more a demonstration of a basic lack of eduction and awareness. After all, as the saying goes, among two Jews you'll get three opinions; if you get a few different denominations together, it wouldn't take much to find "cohesion" thrown out the window. The comment also exhibits ignorance of the fact that there are European Jews; (the ones with zero provable connection to Palestine) African Jews; and Arab Jews. Suggesting that these diverse groups are "cohesive" is just...dumb.
Don't expect anything from Bob Dylan. His feeble political mind produced the Zionist anthem "Neighborhood Bully." A paean full of nonstop hasbara bullshit.
Typically inane MoDo. Not a word about his extreme Zionism, his Israel-first stance, or his pimping for the Iraq war. And nary a mention of his nickname-level friendship with the war criminal killer "Arik" Sharon.
Mark Green is no better than a KKK member. He's a proud member of the Jewish KKK, aka Zionism.
Wow. Arianna threw a sop to the other side. This bagatelle hardly excuses the extreme Zionist slant of her site, not to mention her censorship of opposing views.
Arianna is clearly a Zionist or Zionist sympathizer; and an airhead to boot.
I was wondering what kind of delusional nonsense Witty would post. What a loony tune racist.
The Jewish KKK in action.
The so-called two-state solution has been dead. It's been dead from the beginning; it was never a viable option. The only question is whether the Israelis will nuke the USA once they realize they've lost. The South Africans dismantled their nukes once they realized the game was over.
Obama's nuclear speech today didn't inspire any confidence: not a word about Israel's extremely dangerous nuclear arsenal.
Don't get too excited. Obama talks nice, but isn't willing to use a big stick on Israel. Or even a small one.
Furthermore, as long as Israel's 5th column in Congress is active, loyal agents like Sayanim Schumer will do everything they can to block any movement. What's really sad about Schumer's statement quoted above is that he probably doesn't even realize that he's lying like a sieve.
This so-called report mentions Israel striking "legitimate military targets" in Gaza.
Of course, these targets aren't specified. What are these so-called "legitimate military targets?"
The flour mill? The police academy? Goldstein bent over backwards to provide a "fair and balanced" report. But the end result is like giving equal time to the Nazis.
Only "lite Zionists" and their sycophants think the "only option" is the so-called two state solution. Let's get real here. The U.N. (illegitimately) imposed a "two state solution" over 50 years ago. The expansionist Gun Zionist state has resisted this solution by force ever since, and will never consent to it.
In the end, this intransigence will doom Zionism. I feel sorry for Brooklyn; it will be a much nastier place when all the Jewish thugs return from Palestine.
You know what? It all started when the racist Zionist thugs invaded Palestine. They shouldn't have invaded. They shouldn't be there now. Just as France gave up Algeria, so should the (mostly) European and American Jewish Fascists leave Palestine.
You want to play this "who started first" blame game? Zionism loses every time. No matter how much the hasbara crowd whines and wails, their narrative won't come true.
Zionism is the Jewish version of the KKK. As the massacres continue, the comparison will inevitably devolve downward to Nazism.
J Street vs. AIPAC; it's the Council of Concerned Citizens vs. the Klan. Same racist goals, different outfits.
No matter how noble you pretend J Street is, it will never rise above being a front group for a nation of racists, thieves and killers.
Here is the deal. Israel will continue resisting the two state solution. They'll continue to demand their right to be racist.
Eventually, the state will collapse. The question is whether the collapse will be similar to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Algeria...or Nazi Germany. Of course the nightmare scenario is a defiant mad-dog Israel launching nuclear weapons on the US and Europe. "If we can't get what we want, we'll bring you down too." Since the US Congress is in the death grip of AIPAC, the outlook for the USA is not very good.
