Update: 3000 ton US arms shipment to Israel postponed/rerouted
January 13, 2009 – 8:25 pm
The carefully-worded caveats surrounding the veracity of our earlier piece were unnecessary: despite earlier prevarication, the Pentagon has confirmed that the US were sending 3000 tons of munitions in 25 containers from Greece to Israel, timed to arrive at the end of January. This volte face obviously had nothing to do with the leaking of [...]

I know nothing at first hand about Gaza so I should stop commenting . . . . . . .
January 8, 2009 – 9:56 am
. . .and it would be a good idea if other people did the same. However, I do know a bit about media. It is pointless of Israel to complain about the possible bias of quoted ‘sources in Gaza’ from the world’s news gatherers if they employ totalitarian tactics (selectively used by the US in [...]

December 29, 2008 – 5:21 pm
“After all, who remembers the Armenians?” (Adolph Hitler). By John J Kelly. Israel is feeling “no real pressure” from the world to end the operation in the Gaza Strip, and the amount of time the international community will sit relatively quietly on the sidelines depends on how things develop, senior diplomatic officials said Sunday. According [...]
UN Resolution 446 revisited and another Neo-coincidence
December 29, 2008 – 12:05 pm
The US and its ‘allies’ pursued an aggressive ‘war’ counter to the 4th Geneva Convention against Iraq on the spurious justification that Iraq had ignored a UN resolution. Israel is in breach of more than 65 UN Resolutions, but the most significant, Resolution 446, passed in 1979 with abstensions from the UK, Norway and the [...]
Update: Israeli F-16s blitz Gaza in a run-up to the February elections
December 27, 2008 – 11:29 am
Forget about sending aid – the previous post has unfortunately been rendered redundant by the news that Israel has attacked Hamas-run security compounds in Gaza, killing hundreds of civilians and wounding others – including the almost-obligatory deaths of two small girls allegedly killed by Hamas – in the process. See Gaza attacks. Although rocket attacks [...]
Inhumanitarian aid to Gaza before the turkey shoot?
December 27, 2008 – 9:47 am
Posted by John J Kelly – story by Sameh Akram Habeeb, supplied by Patrick MacManus The good news is that it has been reported that Israel is allowing 100 trucks with desperately-needed ‘humanitarian aid‘ into Gaza. The bad news is that is is probably part of a publicity campaign to divert attention from incursions into [...]
