Who is a Terrorist?

There is a shrinking group of free people, people who believe in a context with everyone’s equal worth. This group still dreams about a society where everyone is included and for this, one is prepared to struggle.

The hours are not enough. Daddy Obama tries every night to give Natasha and Malia some of his time. The hours are not enough. That is just the way it is. Part of the job, the assignment. Much has been promised and every promise has to be kept.

Freedom Fighters, Terrorists or Schlemiels?

Condi Rice: “What we’re seeing here, in a sense, is the growing birth pangs of a new Middle East.”

Jon Stewart: “Birth pangs? Yes, I believe today’s contraction took out a city block.”

If the pro-war left is dead, what’s next?

Neoconservatism thinking, according to E.D. Kain (via Sullivan), goes like this: The Islamic world is nothing like the Western world. We have few, if any, of the same values and virtually no historical commonality save our shared, centuries-old conflict with one another. The Islamic world, by and large, has none of the laws or customs necessary to develop an organic democratic society the way Western nations have. Therefore, the only way to achieve peace with the Islamic world is for them to adopt our notions of plurality, democracy, and humanism. They won’t do this on their own because of their lack of shared values, and so it follows that we must intervene on their behalf to impose these values, and fashion democracies for them in our image.

Dirty Socks: Who Will Get My Vote?

'I have some good news and some bad news,' the sergeant in the joke tells his men. 'The good news is that you are going to change your dirty socks. The bad news is that you are going to exchange them among yourselves.'

Slow Resettlement for Palestinian-Iraqi Refugees

The start of 2009 offers little hope to the residents of Al Tanf, a refugee camp on the Syrian-Iraqi border housing over 700 Palestinians who had fled persecution in Iraq. No country has given any concrete pledge to take any of the refugees for resettlement in 2009, leaving them to battle the cold desert weather this winter with more despair than ever.

Gaza: the nightmare goes on

Sheffield Palestine Solidarity Campaign | 21-01-2009 10:49 | Palestine | Sheffield

For the moment the bombing has stopped, although we hear that Israeli gunboats continue to shell from the sea and Israeli forces are able to recommence attacks at any moment they choose. The situation for all those inside the Gaza strip remains appalling; the siege has not been lifted and aid convoys continue to be impeded by Israel. More evidence of Israeli war crimes is being uncovered every hour and the response of our Government remains hopelessly inadequate. The lesson to Israel, from most of the world's governments, is that they continue to do whatever they like. Meanwhile there is a growing voice within Israel pleading to the world to support the Palestinian call for sanctions against Israel.

While Israeli children return to school, kids in Gaza sift through rubble to find bodies of friends

Israel in Gaza: Beyond Disproportionate

Marching amid the 50,000 protesters in London bearing witness against the Israeli offensive on Gaza, I spotted a hand-made placard inscribed with the words of the radical Brazilian educator Paolo Freire: “Washing one’s hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral.”

Why Israel won't survive

The merciless Israeli bombardment of Gaza has stopped -- for now -- but the death toll keeps rising as more bodies are pulled from carpet- bombed neighborhoods.

What Israel perpetrated in Gaza, starting at 11:30am on 27 December 2008, will remain forever engraved in history and memory. Tel al-Hawa, Hayy al-Zeitoun, Khuzaa and other sites of Israeli massacres will join a long mournful list that includes Deir Yasin, Qibya, Kufr Qasim, Sabra and Shatila, Qana, and Jenin.
