Israel’s Message: ‘Don’t Feed the Palestinians or You Will Die’
Andrew Mitrovica | Aljazeera - TRANSCEND Media Service, 15 Apr 2024

7 Apr 2024 – The invading Israeli army ought to have erected signs throughout Gaza that read: “Don’t feed the Palestinians: Punishable by death.” The killing of the seven aid workers in Gaza is a direct consequence of Israel’s brutal ‘rules of engagement’.

Green Gaslighting: Another Face of Climate Denialism
Vijay Kolinjivadi | Aljazeera – TRANSCEND Media Service, 31 Jan 2022

25 Jan 2022 – All the talk about ‘net zero’ measures and ‘climate resilience’ investments is just a mass deception. According to the Oxford Dictionaries, the word “gaslighting” means “the action of manipulating someone by psychological means into accepting a false depiction of reality or doubting their own sanity”.

Brazil: Peace in the Favelas
Aljazeera – TRANSCEND Media Service, 15 Nov 2010

For decades Brazil’s favelas – or shanty towns – have been a deadly battleground, where thousands died in the turf wars of rival gangsters and drug lords. But two years ago – in anticipation of the football World Cup in 2014 and the 2016 Summer Olympics, the Brazilian government launched a new initiative. Since then the Police Pacifying Units (UPP), have moved into 12 favelas, freeing 150,000 people from the control of the gangs and bringing a new calm to embattled neighbourhoods.

No More Rage against the Machine
Mark LeVine - Aljazeera, 8 Nov 2010

Where is the anger at the horrors revealed in the latest Wikileaks Iraq war logs? Dishearteningly unsurprising. This somewhat awkward phrase is, to my mind, the best description of the emotional and moral impact of Wikileak’s release of 400,000 classified US military documents.

Colossus: The Giant Gazan Prison
Larbi Sadiki - Aljazeera, 8 Nov 2010

Gazans need to reclaim their state of dignity and humanity before reclaiming the seemingly illusionary hope of a Palestinian state. A peek inside the ‘big prison’ reveals the blockade to be multi-layered – affecting economy, polity, diplomacy and security. For most Arabs, that Israel imposes a de-humanising blockade may be easy to explain, but Egypt’s role in the blockade defies logical explication. The music one hears from the Egyptian regime and other Arab states about adherence to international agreements convinces neither Arabs nor Westerners.

And the real enemy is …
Lamis Andoni - Aljazeera, 1 Nov 2010

The US will continue to fail to convince Arabs that Iran, not Israel, poses the greatest threat to regional stability…. Washington is truly delusional if it thinks it can defeat Iran by convincing Arabs that its pro-Israeli agenda could bring peace and stability, let alone justice to the region.

US: The Dishonest Broker
Avi Shlaim – Aljazeera, 25 Oct 2010

There are many reasons for America’s failure to broker a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians but the most fundamental one is that it is a dishonest broker. As a result of its palpable partiality towards Israel, America has lost all credibility in the eyes not only of the Palestinians but of the wider Arab and Muslim worlds. The so-called peace process has been all process and no peace. Peace talks that go nowhere slowly provide Israel with just the cover it needs to pursue its expansionist agenda on the West Bank. The asymmetry of power between Israel and the Palestinians is so great that only a third party can bridge the gap.

The Tragicomedy of Iran Sanctions
Massoud Parsi – AlJazeera, 24 May 2010

The public relations coup scored by Brazil and Turkey was far greater than a search for solutions to the West’s attempted siege of Iran’s economy.
