By Ramzy Baroud Source At a talk I delivered in Northern England in March 2018, I proposed that the best response to falsified accusations of antisemitism, which are often lobbed against pro-Palestinian communities and intellectuals everywhere, is to draw even closer to the Palestinian narrative. In fact, my proposal was not meant to be a […] […]
A lot has been written about the pro-Israel, anti-Palestinian lobby over the years. Many take the view that the US and Britain have their foreign policy dictated to them by Israel and its influential lobby groups in the West. I don’t intend to revisit the whole debate over the lobby in this column, but I’ve… via […]
In the ongoing struggle for the rights of the Palestinian people to live in peace and equality, the enemies of such noble aims regularly attempt to portray the search for justice in Palestine as somehow anti-Jewish or, even more inaccurately, anti-Semitic. This sickening approach by apologists for the Israeli death machine ignores the fact that […]
There has much discussion of late concerning the emergence of the far right in the USA as a force to be reckoned with. Sadly, it would appear that this political position has always been to the fore in US politics, but under various guises that made it less noticeable. The US military and agencies such […]
On Wednesday the man regarded as the founder of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement targeting Israel (BDS), Palestinian activist Omar Barghouti, headed to the airport outside of Tel Aviv intending to embark on a U.S. speaking tour and attend the wedding of a relative.

The standard Israeli spiel is that anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism. This catchphrase is used ad nauseum to provide specious cover for the many crimes against humanity perpetrated by the rogue Israeli regime. When, therefore, thousands of conscientious Jews stand against Israel and in solidarity with Palestine, the Zionist message starts to look more than a little […]
Democratic Senator, Kamala Harris, is a presidential candidate for the next run out. She is making waves with her apparently fearless desire to take on the corrupt status quo. But is she all that she would like us to believe? Harris has stated that she will not be prostrating herself (Rebel Voice‘s words) before AIPAC, […]
By Philip Giraldi Source A recent article by Andrew Sullivan in the New York magazine considers how one might discuss the issue of Israel and its powerful domestic lobby without being accused of anti-Semitism. Sullivan is a keen observer of the dynamics of American political power and the article pretty clearly lays out why the […]

Ilhan Omar for speaking critically about the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) — and more generally in defense of Palestinian rights — after smearing her as “anti-Semitic.” This comes at the same time that Omar, […] […]
Marc Lamont is a professor of media studies and urban education at Temple University in Philadelphia. He is also a social activist who appeared as a contributor for CNN. Lamont was removed from his position with the broadcaster after he justifiably condemned Israel during a speech to the United Nations. Ilhan Omar is a Muslim […]
By Caitlin Johnstone Source Well, now we all know what happens when a public official criticizes AIPAC. And of course, that was the whole idea Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has published an apology for making self-evident observations about the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), an immensely influential lobbying firm which, like all lobbying […] via […]
By Ludwig Watzal Source Year after year, the right-wing Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles publishes its shitlist of the top leading “Anti-Semites” or “anti-Semitic” incidents.
