The United Nations is compensating Lebanon for the war started by the Hezbollah but they seem somehow to have neglected to notice that Israel has suffered major financial and social damage from the same war.

100 Israelis to testify in Florida trial of alleged Jihad fundraisers By Roni Singer and Nathan Guttman, Haaretz Correspondents Some 100 survivors of terror attacks, relatives of those killed, police investigators, Magen David Adom paramedics, and ZAKA volunteers will testify in what American authorities regard as the most important terrorist trial in the United States since the September 11, 2001 attacks. The group will be flown to Tampa, Florida early next month to serve as prosecution witnesses in the trial of four Arab-Americans accused of belonging to Islamic Jihad and raising funds to finance terror attacks, including some that took...

This is the fifth time in total that Maccabi Tel Aviv has won the title. The match in Moscow ended in triumph for the Israelis.

Family of would-be bomber demands PA probe The family of a Palestinian teenager who was killed earlier this week when an explosive belt he was wearing exploded prematurely is demanding the Palestinian Authority find out who recruited their son to carry out a suicide attack. Iyad al-Masri, 17, of Nablus, was killed and no one else hurt on Sunday in the northern West Bank as he was on his way to carry out a suicide bombing inside Israel. Iyad's brother, 15-year-old Amjad, was killed by the IDF two weeks ago during clashes with stone-throwers in Nablus. Hours later, during the...

KILROY: BEEB HAS GIVEN IN Television presenter Robert Kilroy-Silk says the BBC has "given way" to a lobby demanding his resignation. The Corporation has suspended his talk show while there is an investigation into anti-Arab comments in a newspaper report. Mr Kilroy-Silk said he had hoped the Corporation would have "kept the programme going and dealt with the criticisms". The 61-year-old caused a furore last week in his Sunday Express column by describing Arabs as "suicide bombers, limb-amputators, women repressors". Speaking on Tonight with Trevor McDonald, on ITV1 tonight, Mr Kilroy-Silk admitted he was in a "difficult position". However, he...

Interim solutions By Israel Harel For a year-and-a-half, from September 2000, we suffered one terrorist attack after another. We suffered and demonstrated self restraint. We wanted "to prove to world public opinion," as if it cared, how cruel the Palestinians are. "The Palestinian Authority," said the prime minister and his ministers after every attack, "must fight terrorism." Until Operation Defensive Shield came and cut the succession of attacks. Yesterday, instead of launching another such operation, "the most senior sources" once again reiterated the jaded mantra: "The Palestinian Authority must finally make a decision to fight terrorism." Those who are morally...

Israel a state or an illegal enitity? Ethnic cleansing Israeli style Arnie as Governor !! What a joke Blackout shows US is totally vulnerable Will America now apologise to France Reasons to leave the UK Why is religion difficult for Europeans? Legitimate 'antiZionism'? The Middle East Who's the most beautiful woman ?

Oxford University on Saturday issued a statement apologizing for the behavior of one of its professors, who told an Israeli candidate for an internship that he refused to employ those who have served in the Israel Defense Forces. Professor Andrew Wilkie from Oxford University's School of Molecular Medicine sent Amit Duvshani, who recently completed his graduate degree in biology at Tel Aviv University, an e-mail, in which he accused Israel of "gross infringements of the Palestinians' human rights, simply because they want to live in their own land." He added that he is not the only British scientist with similar...

Want to make yourself really, really unpopular if you’re a Jew? Try saying that the world is witnessing a terrifying firestorm of hatred directed at Israel and the Jewish people, in which the British and Europeans are deeply implicated. Since it is now a given in many circles that Israel is a threat to the world equal to North Korea, and that Ariel Sharon is a cross between Martin Bormann and Hendrik Verwoerd, you will find yourself accused of using the Holocaust to avoid any criticism of Israel’s behaviour. Because, well, you know, you Jews always stick together and are...

Subject: Canada has changed its mind...refuses to accept Magen David Adom. Jan. '03 Canada decided to decertify Magen Dovid Adom (Israel Red Cross) as a charity eligible to receive aid from Canadians. Magen Dovid helps people regardless of their religion or ethnic background. On the other hand, the Red Crescent (the Moslem Red Cross) which only helps Muslims in the Middle East, will continue to be a recognized charity by the Canadian government. This is clearly a political decision and we need to voice our objections to it. The decision can be reversed if enough pressure is put on the...

According to the police and State Prosecutor's Office, the suicide bomber had met Bakhri on the bus and had instructed her to get off, saying that "something bad is going to happen."...

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/shalvatz/petition.html To: The United Nations Secretary-General Mister Kofy Annan In the name of a broad community and more than a hundred professors in different fields from many countries (America, Europe and Israel) I turn to you, as a Nobel Peace Prize Winner and ask you to organize a Public International Trial for Those Who Encourage Terror by Suicide Bombers. If the United Nations Organization does not address this immediately, then the peace and stability of the whole world will be daily undermined and shattered. I believe an International Trial could be a highly effective and humane way of dealing with...

Last update - 21:05 27/06/2002 U.S. diplomats continuing contact with PA officials By The Associated Press WASHINGTON - U.S. diplomats are meeting with top Palestinian officials, even as the Bush administration calls for Arafat's ouster. Among the diplomats is Ronald Schlicher, who heads the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem, the main contact point for the Palestinians with the United States in the absence of formal relations. A senior U.S. official said Schlicher was likely to have "a full range of contacts" with the Palestinian Authority whether or not he sees the Palestinian leader. Bush called Monday for Arafat's removal, saying the...

24, 2002 Column One: Israeli victims don’t count at State By CAROLINE B. GLICK Americans this week have been swamped with dire pronouncements by their leaders warning that additional terrorist attacks on US soil are a foregone conclusion. From Vice President Richard Cheney to FBI Director Robert Mueller, Americans this week were told it is only a question of time before they will again experience mass murder similar in scale to the September 11 attacks. Also this week it surfaced that on March 27, the very day the Arab League convened in Beirut to discuss the much touted Saudi "peace...

*John Loftus is a former federal prosecutor and author of several books, including The Secret War Against the Jews. He is an Irish-Catholic. John Loftus, who is the President of the Florida Holocaust Museum, has instituted a lawsuit to expose the Saudi-funded terrorist network in Florida below. It is so incredible, that it is almost unbelievable. For twenty years I have served without compensation as a lawyer for federal whistleblowers within the US intelligence community. In the last year, I have received highly classified information from several of my confidential clients concerning a Saudi covert operation. The Saudi relationship is...

<p>WALSH: I have been profiling terrorists. I had the honor of profiling, being asked by the White House and Attorney General Ashcroft and Colin Powell to come to the White House after September 11 and do the World's Most Wanted Terrorists, the 22 most terrorists. As a matter of fact, I meet with the president last Tuesday. He thanked "America's Most Wanted" for profiling the terrorists because we've gotten information on guys in different parts of the world.</p>

AN APOLOGY THAT WASN'T -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- May 7, 2002 -- I MUST have missed it. I waited more than a week, sure that I'd see it. But somehow I must have missed the worldwide outcry against the three Palestinian gunmen who attacked the Adora settlement April 28, on the Sabbath, and killed four people, including a 5-year-old girl as she lay in her bed. I must have missed Amnesty International's announcement that it was rushing to the scene of this new incident, which it would no doubt characterize as a "massacre." I must have missed Kofi Annan's statement to the United...

Tuesday, May 07, 2002 Iyyar 25, 5762 Israel Time: 12:40 (GMT+3) Tank crew under fire for children's deaths in Jenin By Ha'aretz Staff The IDF's preliminary investigation into the killing Sunday of three Palestinians by a tank east of Jenin, has uncovered serious failings on the part of the soldiers involved. The investigation has revealed that troops from the army's armored division opened fire on the Palestinians without first ensuring that the targets were indeed terrorists. All this was preceded by the mistaken assumption that the soldiers had come under attack from an incendiary device. Yesterday, Colonel Dan Hafetz held...

: DavidBlumberg@blumberg.hostpilot.com Friends, I am attending the Israel Venture Association annual conference in Tel Aviv and was introduced to Andrea Koppel from CNN as we were waiting for Prime Minister Sharon and Secretary of State Powell to finish their discussion Sunday evening at our hotel. While we were chatting, an American-born Israeli joined us to tellAndrea about his perception of media distortion in that the pressthat stresses moral equivalence between Israeli civilian deaths caused byPalestinian terror and Palestinian civilian deaths caused byIsraeli miIlitary actions. He argued that Israel has tried to engage in a peace process since Camp David and...
