Hypocritic Oafs

This week, “human rights” group Physicians for Human Rights accused Israel of causing the deaths of sick palestinians by manipulating “security reasons” to reject their requests to cross the border for treatment in Israel or elsewhere.
Five Palestinians, including a one-year-old baby, have died in Gaza over the past two months after Israel rejected on security [...]

UN Has No Idea Who is Responsible for Qassams

The UN seemed to have a “flying pig” moment last Saturday when a top humanitarian representative condemned rocket attacks against Israel:
The United Nations humanitarian chief today voiced his concern at the impact of indiscriminate rocket attacks against Israel during a visit to the town of Sderot, an area severely affected by bombardments from the Gaza [...]

Lies, Damn Lies, and B’Tselem’s Statistics

B’Tselem just came out with its annual report on how horrible Israel is, and for purposes of “balance” it threw in some statistics on Palestinian Arabs killing each other.
It comes to the apparent conclusion that even with a reduction of Palestinian Arab deaths at the hands of Israel this year, Israel was responsible for more [...]

The Terror Enablers

The ISM have long tried to represent themselves as supporters of “non-violent”means of resistance only, and as opposing terrorism. For instance, they state on their FAQ page:
Attacks on innocent civilians, be they Israeli or Palestinian, are forbidden under international law. The ISM seeks nothing more for Israelis and Palestinians than implementing international law, and [...]

More Proof of ISM Support For Terrorism

Those “peace-loving” kiddies from the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) have a post to mark the 20th anniversary of the palestinian’s “First Intifada.”
The first Intifada began in a piecemeal fashion with demonstrations and civil disobedience sparked by an increasing number of shootings and human rights abuses by the Israeli occupation.
The Intifada marked an end to passive [...]

ISM Fisking of the Day

I have noticed a considerable drop in site traffic over the past month or so. While it has left me scratching my head – after all, post frequency has not dropped, and I have brought on board some interesting and talented bloggers to contribute – I can only conclude that the reason for this drop [...]

Death of an ISMer

The ISM reports on the brutal murder unfortunate death of one of their members.
Akram Ibrahim Abu Sba’, member of the ISM regional committee Jenin and co-founder of one of ISM’s first permanent presences was killed by members of Islamic Jihad in the north Palestinian city of Jenin.
Akram was killed on duty, when he tried to [...]

What, No Lynch?

The ISM, which claims to be “committed to resisting the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land using nonviolent, direct-action methods and principles,” has reacted to the actions of the PA police officers who saved the life of the IDF officer who mistakenly entered Jenin.
Needless to say, they do not praise the officers for saving the life [...]

More ISM Truth-Avoidance

The ISM have posted the following cartoon.

I do. How about the truth?
“I have received only half of my salary for the last 14 months because the Hamas-led government is receiving less money from overseas since it has failed to recognise Israel, renounce violence and abide by interim peace deals. Also, it prefers to spend the [...]

Celebrating With the Terrorists

When I read this post about the DFLP’s 38th anniversary celebration on the ISM blog, I immediately knew what I had to write.
Then I saw that Meryl had beaten me to the punch. Which is ok, because I think she’s scored a knockout blow.
Last time the ISM were accused of supporting terrorists, they went to [...]
