2026: Remembering Sharpeville
(Available for free publication, 21/03/2026) Today , March 21, Human Right Day, we remember the 1960 massacre at Sharpeville. As we do so, let us demolish one myth and recall also the vital role played by principled journalists at the time. The myth is that 69 people died and several were injured. The confirmed reality: […]

Zionism, anti-Semitism and eugenics
March 18, 2026
The conflation of the religio-nationalist ideology of Zionism not only with Judaism and the nation state of Israel, but also with antisemitism, continues to be widely promoted.

Gaza: can we dream of optimism?

Gideon Levy of the Haaretz newspaper sees the latest 20-point ceasefire deal regarding Gaza as a time to have, at least, dreams of optimism; of hoping that the international world has finally taken on its responsibility to remove the “Israeli boot” from Palestinian necks.
