What a joke! The anti-Semitic Palestinian Authority can’t even secure the Gaza Strip – the other half of their ethnically cleansed “state” – from the Strip’s equally anti-Semitic Hamas. And there’s a call to make Israel Palestine? The funny bit is the word “again”. In their convoluted logic, three thousand years of continuous Jewish rule […]

Palestine: a study in uncontrolled addiction
This article was first published in “The Times of Israel” on December 2, 2013. Palestinian Arabs want a country of their own. They want to call it Palestine. Many people find this offensive. Which is strange. When the Palestinian Jews declared the independent Jewish state of Israel in 1948, with the backing of the majority […]
The expensive joke that is the UN
The UN is one of the most underrated – and expensive – comedy shows ever. UN member state the Philippines has been devasted by a recent typhoon, with huge loss of life and the eradication of many communities and population centres. UN member state Syria increasingly resembles an apocalyptic graveyard. UN member state Lebanon is […]
Obsession is the new sanity
Let’s see now: The mad-dog regime of North Korea detonates an underground nuclear device in direct contravention of global opinion – while extorting food aid from the nations of the world. Yawn from the UN and EU. The brutal regime of Assad has breached the 100,000 mark in the number of Syrian citizens murdered by […]

How the Palestinian-Arab refugees came about…
… and why they are still classified as refugees 64 years later. No other group in the world is allowed to inherit refugee status, apart from the Palestinian Arabs.

Sudan elected to UN Human Rights Council!
No, this isn’t a joke in extremely poor taste. Unfortunately. This is how divorced the UN is from reality: it elects – SUDAN! – onto the UN Human Rights Council. Sudan is one of the world’s worst serial human rights abusers. Read here what Human Rights Watch has to say about Sudan. And see the video […]
A view from Sweden: Sullying Raoul Wallenberg’s reputation
(A version of the following article was published as an op-ed in the Jerusalem Post on June 29, 2012) Raoul Wallenberg’s grandnephew Michael Wernstedt’s stance on Israeli policy in the West Bank is troubling. Sweden’s Raoul Wallenberg was the epitome of selflessness, bravery and principle. He refused to be silent in the face of evil, […]
UN inaction costs lives by the thousands
But that doesn’t really matter – UN publicly funded salaries are still paid out regularly so what are a few thousand civilian lives in Syria in the wider financial context, after all? With something like 10,000 deaths in Syria – systematic regime massacres of civilians would be a more accurate description – already documented, the UN continues […]
The truth about refugees in the Middle East

Danny Ayalon, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in Israel, explains why there still are Arab refugees from the 1948 pan-Arab onslaught against the Jewish state. He explains […]
