12-16-06 - 5. PALESTINE PEACE NOT APARTHEID, by Jimmy Carter
12-16-06 - Last Word: Jimmy Carter The word apartheid?did you agonize about that?
Not really, I didn't agonize because I knew that's an accurate description of what's going on in Palestine. I would say that the plight of the Palestinians now?the confiscation of their land, that they're being suppressed completely against voicing their disapproval of what's happening, the building of the wall that intrudes deep within their territory, the complete separation of Israelis from the Palestinians?all of those things in many ways are worse than some of the aspects of apartheid in South Africa. There is no doubt about it, and no one can go there and visit the different cities in Palestine without agreeing with what I have said.

12-16-06 - My Name is Rachel Corrie closes today
12-16-06 - Neocons: We expected Israel to attack Syria Wurmser says that what most frustrates her is hearing people close to decision makers in Israel asking her if the US would have let Israel attack Syria. "No one would have stopped you. It was an American interest. They would have applauded you. Think why you received so much time and space to operate. Rice was in the region and Israel embarrassed her with Qana, and still Israel got more time. Why aren't they reading the map correctly in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem?"
Naturally, neocons consider themselves blameless in the Iraq debacle.

12-16-06 - Jimmy Carter vs. Jimmy Carter I know full well why Carter doesn't want to engage in the 'debate' that Dershowitz seeks. It's because it would require that Carter unravel the 'Big Lie' - a lifetime of myths and untruths about tbe foundation of Israel and it's so-called 'democracy'. And there isn't much of a debate when it comes to the Israel-defenders. From personal experience, it boils down to a p'ing match which muddies the waters and gets so far off topic with the usual pro-Israeli tactics (deny/dismiss/deflect/etc), that the real message gets lost (which is the point of these tactics). Their side of the story has been the ONLY side of the story that Americans have been allowed to hear for nearly SIXTY YEARS. Let someone else have the floor (for a change).
