From Zionism to fascism – and beyond

October 31, 2025

The poison of nationalism, in certain conditions, mutates quite quickly into authoritarianism and to fascism, an ideology that distils that poison into a form of ethnic/religious/racial superiority. In its most advanced form, fascism, a spawn of nationalism, becomes genocidal nazism. A classic examples, sponsored by global political powers that support the nationalist creed, is the […]

Palestine: the terror continues

October 27, 2025

In a promise just as meaningless as so many he has sprouted and subsequently ignored or actively reneged on, Donald Trump has given his word that Israeli annexation of the nominally Palestinian West Bank, “won’t happen”. Several of his senior lackeys promptly agreed that “America does not support the annexation of the West Bank”. While […]

The propaganda horror of hostages

October 23, 2025

The Zionist state of Israel has illegally imprisoned thousands of men, women and chidren, often in the most appalling conditions, for many years. That is a simple, largely ignored reality that deeply concerned me when the term “hostage” was weaponised after October 7 and disseminated as such by much of the global media. Because a […]

Gaza: can we dream of optimism?

But the brutishly vile motivation behind the carnage in Gaza applies elsewhere as well, and no more so than in the central military region including the West […]

A land of legalised murder and theft

August 15, 2025

Israel has now become a state where Zionist murderers and thieves are not only tolerated, they are positively encouraged . But only if the victims are Palestinian and the crimes are committed in order to steal more , often good farming, land. In the recent past, there was usually at least a pretence of an […]

The only solutions to genocide & statehood

August 3, 2025

European recognition of Palestine is a hollow gesture that lets Israel off the hook. Without sanctions to stop the slaughter in Gaza, it’s not diplomacy – it’s complicity writes Gideon Levy in his latest (August 3, 2025) column in Haaretz International recognition of a Palestinian state rewards Israel, which should be thanking each and every […]

Denying Gaza’s Starvation Is No Less Vile Than Denying the Holocaust

July 27, 2025

Denial is legitimate in Israel, it’s consistent with local political correctness – there is no hunger and descriptions of deliberate starvation in Gaza are an antisemitic conspiracyBy Gideon Levy (Haaretz, Jul 27, 2025) There aren’t many meaner phenomena than the denial of the Jewish Holocaust. Deniers have claimed that it never took place, and that […]
