Violence is the strongest imperative to keep fighting for peace
With no peace process on the horizon, the terrorist attack in Tel Aviv this week is a reminder that we don’t have the luxury of giving up on a future in which Palestinians and Israelis alike can feel secure in their own homes, streets and cafes. Almost six years ago, Hillary Clinton was getting ready…

A colonial addiction: The twisted logic of the Netanyahu government
Charlton Heston has been on my mind recently. That famous call during the NRA conference in 2000 after Columbine, “From my cold dead hands,” has been swirling around my head lately. Why? Because it reminds me of Benjamin Netanyahu. But in my head Bibi isn’t holding a rifle. He’s holding a hammer. A builder’s hammer.…

Between the Lines (Oct 14): Iranian President Visits Lebanon
The Headlines: Hedgehog Day > The headlines today are practically identical to yesterday’s headlines. The rescue of miners in Chile is still the lead story. And here are the results of today’s hyperbole contest: last place – Ha’aretz (“World Celebrates”); third place – Ma’ariv (“Victory of Hope”); runner up – Yisrael Hayom (“Victory of Man”).…

Oct 12: Netanyahu: freeze in exchange for a Jewish state?
The Headlines: The “Jewish state” demand strikes back > Netanyahu offered the Palestinians an extension of the settlement freeze in return for recognizing Israel as the nation state of the Jewish people.

Between the Lines (7 Oct): Disloyalty to the Jewish democracy
Headlines: Disloyalty to Judaism and Democracy Netanyahu has decided to support a proposed bill, which would require new citizens to proclaim their allegiance not just to Israel, as they are required to do right now, but specifically to Israel as a “Jewish and democratic state”.

A question for Bibi, and one for Obama
Two questions need to be answered following Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s reported rejection of a White House incentive package offered in exchange for extending the settlement construction freeze for two more months.

Buy No Evil: boycott settlements via phone app
As everyone knows, the “settlement freeze” – the Netanyahu’s government lame attempt at showing seriousness on the peace process – will expire tomorrow (26 September). There is, however, another way of reminding the settlers they are illegitimate – by boycotting their produce. In the 1980s, an old leftist sneer was that the “entire agriculture of…
