It is outrageous to the extreme that the global community would dare to tell a sovereign nation what is – or is not – its capital. What a bunch of pandering cowards the BBC is. The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) issued an apology this week to Muslims for having referred to Jerusalem as being the capital of Israel in one of its broadcasts. The apology came in response to complaints by four Muslim-British organizations:Arab Media Watch,Muslim Public Affairs Committee,Friends of Al-Aksa and,the Institute of Islamic Political Thought. The reference to Jerusalem that drew the complaints occurred on March 24th, when

It’s about time somebody with integrity, grit and resolve did something. From British Academics’ Boycott of Israel Provokes Reaction: Few could have predicted the scale of the backlash to the University and College Union’s resolution to boycott Israel. Tony Blair phoned the Israeli prime minister to reassure him that the motion did not reflect wider public opinion. In Israel, MPs began drafting a bill to label British imports – allowing consumers to stage their own counter boycott. In the U.S., 2,000 American scholars – including at least nine Nobel laureates – have vowed to stay away from any event from

From UK Jihadis Threaten Israel: Radicalized British Muslims continue to pose a security threat to Israel, Baroness Caroline Cox, former deputy speaker of the House of Lords for 20 years, said Thursday. Israel “does need to be concerned” about another attempt by al-Qaeda-affiliated British Muslims to attack the country, as two British Muslims did in 2003 in a suicide bombing on a pub in Tel Aviv that killed three Israelis and injured dozens. “Britain has become a base for training and teaching militant Islam,” Cox declared.

A Different Law for Jews

From A Different Law for Jews: Why are we witnessing a recurrent historical phenomenon, a different law for Jews – a unique and racist law – as opposed to all others? If human rights and human lives were what interested the British, they would devote much greater energy to what is happening in Darfur than to what is happening in the West Bank. The British lecturers know the truth. They know that in Chechnya, for example, Putin’s Russia wiped out tens of thousands of Muslims. They know that the Israeli army is the epitome of humanity compared to the Russian

More boycotts, more British anti-Semitism. Clearly, Britain is trying to assuage its guilt for phucking up the Middle East in the first place. If it weren’t for Britain’s imperialism and love of the Arab, the Jews would have been able to live peacefully in their homeland just as the British Mandate was intended. From UK University Lecturers Vote for Boycott of Israeli Universities: Delegates at the first conference of the new University and College Union in Bournemouth voted by 158 to 99 Wednesday for “a comprehensive and consistent boycott” of all Israeli academic institutions. A boycott might involve refusing to

From Battle for Britain via Daily Alert: Britain has become in recent years the battlefield in Israel’s fight for its existence as a Jewish state. The number of British organizations calling for the boycott of Israel, their public campaigns, and their constant comparisons between Israel and the apartheid regime of South Africa have made the battle for British public opinion particularly significant. In the face of boycott proposals by Britain’s National Union of Journalists, by a group of British doctors and a group of architects, and in the wake of the Anglican Church’s decision to divest from companies cooperating with

An important point that seems to have been lost on many commentators

Amazingly, when the venemous M.P. George Galloway appeared on The O”Reilly Factor and asked why Iran was any different from Israel, O’Reilly failed to give him the following simple answer. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has said Israel’s “policy of ambiguity on nuclear arms has proved its worth, and it will continue”. “Israel has to hold in its hand all the elements of power necessary to protect itself by itself. Israel has never signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), designed to prevent the global spread of nuclear arms. As a result, it is not subject to inspections or the threat of
