It is a testimony to this campaign that the government has changed the law of the land in their latest attempt to defeat it. The authorities, from the bean counters at City Hall to government level, have been twisting and squirming as they look for yet another way to make us pay this double tax. read full story / add a comment

For more than 50 years, the plight of Palestinian refugees has remained at center stage of discussions of Middle East politics. The United Nations has passed dozens of resolutions deploring the status of refugees in that region and Arab representatives continue to insist on the Palestinians' "right of return" as a prerequisite to lasting peace between Arabs and Israelis. Lost in this discussion, however, has been the memory of another flood of refugees created for the most part at the same time as the original Palestinian refugees left their home. This "forgotten exodus" of Jews from Arab lands involved just as many displaced people, and in some cases resulted in the virtual extinction of historic communities. read full story / add a comment

This recent report outlines the reality of the plight of Palestinian prisoners. The draconian measures Israel is perpetrating make any comparison with British internment of Irish activists tragically laughable. The media is currently holding the line that Israel is making serious concessions by contemplating releasing a small number of prisoners. Reports by Amnesty and Stop the Torture shed light on the list of human rights abuses Israel has been carrying out for decades and which have led to the recent Intifada.

According to former soldier and syndicated journalist Brian Cloughley, The 3rd Infantry division has gone on a pillaging spree in Baghdad airport taking comfy seats, breaking windows in the terminal, taking what they want and leaving it in a state that "would make the Aegean Stables look like a Tiffany’s window." In an article in the Daily Times of Pakistan, he compares and contrasts their oafish looting and destruction to Mary's action -which involved no theft. read full story / add a comment
