Israel has issued regulations on opening up society, largely on the basis of a “green passport”, a system by which those who have been inoculated may enter hotels, swimming pools, synagogues, concert halls, and other public places. Those without the green passport can’t enter. This is a huge ethical issue.

The Never Netanyahu parties in Israeli politics only get to about 50 seats in polls for the March 23 elections, which likely leaves Netanyahu in power because opposition won’t work with Palestinian votes! Netanyahu sees a path to a majority of 61 with a deal he forged between Bezalel Smotrich and Otsma Yehudit, or Jewish Power, a racist fascistic party with Kahanist roots.

There are 700,000 Israeli settlers and the number is growing for a simple reason, this is the Zionist process that settled the original Israeli state in 1948: move more Jews on to the land, and push Palestinians aside.

The International Committee of the Red Cross took to social media to point out all the ways the television show “Fauda” portrays Israeli human rights violations. Israeli media outlets, government officials, and assorted apologists were not happy.

Benny Gantz is the “liberal” white knight who was going to save Israel from Netanyahu, by becoming “alternate Prime Minister.” He has been outfoxed again and again and now Israel appears headed to a fourth election in two years with Gantz’s party polling at a miserable six seats and a politician to Netanyahu’s right threatening to become the “Just not Netanyahu” candidate.

German and Austrian cultural leaders are right to insist upon freedom of expression, but they should also actively extend their plea to embrace Palestinians.

On Friday, the Israeli military killed Palestinian teenager Ali Abu Alia, and have attempted to justify it by saying it did not use “live fire” against protesters. Not only did it use lethal force, but it was aided and abetted by the U.S.

Omer Yankelevich of Israel’s Blue White party drops the veil, revealing that Netanyahu’s rivals will run to his right on settlers — “the salt of the earth.” Oh and by the way she’s Diaspora Minister. She looks after relations with American Jews. How do they look on Israel’s never-ending expansion?
