Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Did you know that the Israeli farmer who shot Arab “intruder” 3 times in back, freed to “home arrest”?

Did you know that Netanyahu uses the words that push US war buttons: “Iran and Holocaust.” Netanyahu knows which strategists and PR people to use to give him the right words (with a little help and $ from his Neocon pals), the right strategy, to push America’s congressional and emotional buttons. Once ousted for corruption, he is coming back. There hasn’t been an Israeli Prime Minister in years who was NOT ousted for corruption. No big deal. (And who could possibly be behind the corruption investigations of Olmert?)

Did you know that Yad Vashem head says “Settler Abuse of Palestinians Recalls pre WWII Anti Semitism!”

Did you know that Israeli army admits that the 44 barriers it said it removed, did not actually exist!!!

Did you know that there is a large rise in number of rapes, date rape drugs in Israeli Terrorist Army? If it’s good enough for the President of the country, it’s good enough for the troops.

Did you know that Israeli army shoots 17 year old in leg and lets him bleed to death?

Did you know that a multi-party committee of MPs is pressing for sanctions over Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians? Time to get serious about Israel…

Did you know the “list of prohibitions” in Palestinian Life? Forbidden in Palestine under a whole, long list of Israeli prohibitions:

Standing prohibitions

Palestinians from the Gaza Strip are forbidden to stay in the West Bank.

Palestinians are forbidden to enter East Jerusalem.

West Bank Palestinians are forbidden to enter the Gaza Strip through the Erez crossing

Palestinians are forbidden to enter the Jordan Valley.

Palestinians are forbidden to enter villages, lands, towns and neighborhoods along the “seam line” between the separation fence and the Green Line (some 10 percent of the West Bank).

Palestinians who are not residents of the villages Beit Furik and Beit Dajan in the Nablus area, and Ramadin, south of Hebron, are forbidden entry.

Palestinians are forbidden to enter the settlements’ area (even if their lands are inside the settlements’ built area).

Palestinians are forbidden to enter Nablus in a vehicle.

Palestinian residents of Jerusalem are forbidden to enter area A (Palestinian towns in the West Bank).

Gaza Strip residents are forbidden to enter the West Bank via the Allenby crossing.

Palestinians are forbidden to travel abroad via Ben-Gurion Airport.

Children under age 16 are forbidden to leave Nablus without an original birth certificate and parental escort.

Palestinians with permits to enter Israel are forbidden to enter through the crossings used by Israelis and tourists.

Gaza residents are forbidden to establish residency in the West Bank.

West Bank residents are forbidden to establish residency in the Jordan valley, seam line communities or the villages of Beit Furik and Beit Dajan.

Palestinians are forbidden to transfer merchandise and cargo through internal West Bank checkpoints.

Periodic prohibitions

Residents of certain parts of the West Bank are forbidden to travel to the rest of the West Bank.

People of a certain age group – mainly men from the age of 16 to 30, 35 or 40 – are forbidden to leave the areas where they reside (usually Nablus and other cities in the northern West Bank).

Private cars may not pass the Swahara-Abu Dis checkpoint (which separates the northern and southern West Bank). This was cancelled for the first time two weeks ago under the easing of restrictions.

Read the complete list here.

Here is a leaked Israeli document gives frightening glimpse of apartheid!

Truth time: Sanctions on Hamas have backfired on Israel & no “Palestinian State”!
