Jewish Luftwaffe wreaks 6th day of carnage on Palestinians

And a happy New Year to you too, Israel. Revel in these pictures for now, but your turn will surely come; how can the cycle of violence stop while you continue to maintain your inhuman and vindictive siege of Gaza?

Postscript 3 January 2009: On the 8th day of Israeli attacks, the death toll has reached 440 and number of injured 2285. Israeli tanks have been shelling a number of areas to prepare the way for incursions into Gaza from several entry points. A number of civilians have been reported killed as a result of the shelling.

Zionism shaken but not yet stirred

Here's is an interesting article by Shlomo Sand, Professor of History at Tel Aviv University, that shakes the very foundations of Zionism.

An Israeli historian suggests the diaspora was the consequence, not of the expulsion of the Hebrews from Palestine, but of proselytising across north Africa, southern Europe and the Middle East

21st Century Jewish Nazism


Here we go again. Israel's leaders compete among each other in annihilating the greatest number of caged, starved and strangled Gazans, just to make a cheap political point.

Having bombed 270 people out of existence and maimed 700 others in one day, Livni can now claim to be as macho as Netanyahu and any of the other Israeli chieftains.

What is it with Israel's psychopathic leaders and Zionist day-dreamers? They never tire of crowing about the Pogroms and Holocaust, yet if they hold up a mirror against their own faces they will see Swastikas etched deep into their foreheads.

Postscript at 31 December 2008: The death toll has reached over 400, of whom a quarter are women and children. The total injured is over 2000 and the Gazan hospital and emergency services are nearing collapse.
