Oppositie tegen geweld Israel is geen antisemitisme
“Oppositie voeren tegen Israëlische geweld is geen antisemitisme”
Zweden die demonstreerden tegen de Israëlische aanvallen zijn geen antisemieten. Hun uitschelden is een poging om de kritiek op het Israëlische beleid tot zwijgen te brengen. Dit stelt de in Stockholm wonende Palestijn Alaa Kullab.
In een artikel deze week gepubliceerd in The Local, stelde de Israëlisch journalist David Stavrou dat veel Zweedse kritiek op de Israëlische acties in Gaza in antisemitisme veranderd waren. Bron / lees verder, The Local (Engels).

Canada neemt diplomatie voor Israel over, althans in Venezuela
Canada becomes Israel
The government publicly supported Israel's brutal assault on Gaza and voted alone at the UN Human Rights Committee in defense of Israel's actions three weeks ago. Now Canada has taken over Israeli diplomacy. Literally.
In solidarity with Gaza, Venezuela expelled Israel's ambassador at the start of the bombardment and then broke off all diplomatic relations two weeks later. Israel need not worry since Ottawa plans to help out. This means Canada is officially Israel, at least in Venezuela.

ISRAELI ‘HUMAN SHIELD’ STORIES PART OF MASSIVE PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGN TO COVER THE DELIBERATE KILLING OF GAZAN CIVILIANS
The stories now emerging out of the Gaza less than three weeks after the Israeli ground withdrawal suggest that rather than Palestinian fighters using civilians as human shields, it has been Israeli soldiers that have been deliberately, callously and indiscriminately shooting to death surrendered civilians, including very young children, in situations and circumstances where no Palestinian fighters have been in the vicinity.

Johann Hari: The nightmare of Netanyahu returns
This is the man calling for the re-occupation of Gaza to 'liquidate' its elected government
Israel is about to make a misjudgement as disastrous – and deadly – as the attack on Gaza. In a few days, it looks as if it could elect Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister once again. This is a man who says he will "never" negotiate over Jerusalem, or the Golan Heights, or control of the West Bank water supply.
Israeli army "subcontracted" by extremist settlers
Extremist rabbis and their followers, bent on waging holy war against the Palestinians, are taking over the Israeli army by stealth, according to critics. In a process one military historian has termed the rapid "theologization" of the Israeli army, there are now entire units of religious combat soldiers, many of them based in West Bank settlements.

Palestinian and Israeli views on the war in Gaza
A Palestinian View
Dramatic consequences may be opportunity for US administration (by Ghassan Khatib)
As predicted, the three-week long Israeli war on Gaza ended with only one definite result: an eventual renewal of the previous six-month ceasefire for another year, give or take. Other military and political outcomes are less obvious and are still being shaped, with the indirect ceasefire negotiations in their infancy.

Hamas emerges defiant (by Mustafa Abu Sway)
The latest phase in the history of the Zionist colonial project in Palestine is marked by the unprecedented brutality of Israel's military attacks on the Gaza Strip and by the nature of the war crimes that Israel is committing in an area that is still under its occupation and, therefore, under international law, an Israeli obligation to protect civilians.

AN ISRAELI VIEW:
One entity or two (by Yossi Alpher)
The ramifications of the Gaza war for Israeli politics do not appear to be profound. In contrast, they could be very significant for Palestinian politics, and this in turn could redound heavily on Israeli-Palestinian relations.

AN ISRAELI VIEW: A unique opportunity (an interview with Gilead Sher)
bitterlemons: Can we speak in isolation of a specific political aftermath in Israel or Gaza following the war?
Sher: I think the IDF operation in Gaza enhanced the understanding that the problems of the Middle East are interconnected and that all the issues have a larger perspective. http://www.bitterlemons.org/issue/isr2.php
