Waging Peace: An American Jewish Woman Finds Occupation...
Rated • 2 reviews • politics • wrmea.com
From article: "POLITICAL ACTIVIST and author Anna Baltzer spoke to a full house at the Holy Land Christian Ecumenical Foundation Conference on Oct. 25 at the National Presbyterian Church in Washington, DC--and it was obvious from the start that she struck a chord with her audience. Baltzer has toured the United States spreading the word about what she saw during her eight months in the West Bank, as well as promoting her book which documents that journey, Witness in Palestine: a Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories (available from the AET Book Club).
She went to Palestine to see for herself the conditions for the Palestinians living under Israeli occupation, Baltzer explained. What she found was very different from what she had learned growing up a Jew in America. "I didn't want to believe it," she said. "I wanted to believe that Israel was being virtuous and the Arabs in the area were the ones preventing peace." However, she discovered, this was not the truth. "

We Are Very Violent: Israeli War Crimes Mount | | AlterNet
Rated • 1 review • politics • alternet.org
From article: "Pierre Wettach, a Red Cross spokesman, called Israel's delay in allowing a medical evacuation "shocking" and "unacceptable". He added: "The Israeli military must have been aware of the situation but did not assist the wounded."
Physicians for Human Rights in Israel added its voice, criticising the Israeli authorities for repeatedly ignoring requests to move seriously wounded civilians.
The UN suspended its aid operations on Thursday after two of its drivers were killed and others wounded by Israeli fire directed at one of its relief convoys during another three-hour ceasefire."

ei: Israels blonde bombshells and real bombs in Gaza
Rated • 1 review • politics • electronicintifada.net
From article: "Israel's oiled propaganda-machine was further lubricated by its self-acknowledged decision to select women as their masbirim (misinformation spokespersons) so as "to project a feminine and softer image." To add some cool glamour to Israel's hot lies, Tzipi Livni, the state's foreign minister and a natural blonde, announced, in response to calls for truce: "There is no humanitarian crisis in the [Gaza] Strip, and therefore there is no need for a humanitarian truce." The blonde offensive, led by the rising star of Israeli politics, was fortified by a team of peroxide blonde Israeli women, whose sex, lies and video games decorated TV screens worldwide. They explained to the sympathetic world the hardships endured by the nuclear-armed Israelis threatened by the crude rockets. After all, one Israeli was killed in the last six months, while three other Israelis (one of them a Palestinian citizen of Israel) were killed by rockets since Gaza has been turned into a slaughter-house by the silk gloves of the Israeli army."

Home / World Wide / U.S.A. / How Israels...
Rated • 1 review • politics • mediamonitors.net
From article: "6). Deny, deny, deny. When events and reality break through, contradicting the Israeli-established narrative, creating stories that run counter to the imposed story line, the propaganda machine works overtime to deny, deny, deny (saying quite boldly, "Who do you believe, me or your lying eyes?"), and/or concoct a counter-narrative that shifts the blame ("We didn't do it, they made us"). In this instance, that means asserting that the death of Palestinian civilians is always the fault of someone else, or that reporters or their opponents are staging the photos of grief (as if to say, "Arabs don't really grieve like we do")."

Palestine: the Architecture of Apartheid | The Dominion
Rated • 2 reviews • politics • dominionpaper.ca
From article: "In the 2007 publication "Hollow Land", Eyal Weizman, the Israeli-born, London-based architect, reconceptualized geopolitics in the Occupied Territories. The political space created by Israeli apartheid is a web of total domination and control over Palestinians. The architecture and urban planning inside the territories demonstrate a late-modern colonial occupation. Israel owns the subterranean aquifers beneath Gaza and the West Bank, controls the airspace above, and has weaved a web of Israeli only settlements, highways, and security perimeters throughout the West Bank, while turning Gaza into an open-air prison.
According to Weizman, the natural and built features of the landscape function as weapons and ammunition for the conflict. The Occupied Territories have become a series of layers and territories, each manipulated by the Israeli authorities. Borders are porous for Israelis but solid for Palestinians. Checkpoints are a source of humiliation."
