The Disintegration of The Jewish State Has Begun
Israeli Generals expressed dismay yesterday over a violent assault on a senior Air Force officer perpetrated by a gang of soldiers.
Ynet reported yesterday that Maj. A., deputy commander of a squadron at the northern Ramat David Airbase was attacked near his home within the airbase.
An Israeli military source confirmed yesterday that three soldiers, who serve in a technical support unit, assaulted the officer over the weekend after he issued a complaint over their reckless driving on base premises, in violation of strict military regulations.
The three soldiers, apparently outraged by the pilot’s decision to lodge a complaint with their commanding officer, initially threatened to kill him at the presence of his children. They later attacked him outside his home, located on base, with wooden clubs until he nearly lost consciousness.
Ynet reported that Israeli army elite are in shock. “No one can believe that soldiers dared to strike a senior officer”
According to Global Times Senior IAF officers have previously complained about having to deal with soldiers from harsh socioeconomic backgrounds. “With all due respect to the notion of the people’s army, my feeling is that the balance has been violated.”
Good Israeli Education
Only French subtitles so far.
The Israeli youngsters are more than happy to share their lethal military and bloodthirsty fantasies.

Telling the truth about Israel
"The add is antisemitic" says Jewish journalist David Efune
"It paints the Jews as aggresors, imperialists, people who are stilling or taking land from others"
David should get A Star, he clearly grasped the message on the wall

Israel Summer is Hotter Than Ever
Israeli man sets himself on fire during Tel Aviv social protest yesterday.
Protester in serious condition after he poured gasoline on his body and set himself on fire; in letter he left behind, he says, 'the state of Israel robbed me.'
Moshe Silman, a 57-year-old, is probably correct. The Jewish Sate has been robbing its citizens for decades let alone the indigenous people of the land.
It seems as if the Jewish State embodies the ultimate possible form of Jewish tragedy

How We All Became Palestinians - William Cook's "Decade of Deceit"
Book Review by Gilad AtzmonWilliam A. Cook’s ‘Decade of Deceit’ is a collection of spectacular articles written by a man who has gradually awakened to the disastrous meaning of the Zionification of our universe. Being an authentic and unique poetic voice, Cook manages, layer by layer, of to unravel the hypocrisy that has contaminated every aspect of our life – morally, culturally, spiritually and politically.
But Cook is not only a superb poet, he is also an English Professor and it is this synthesis between the aesthetic and the academic that makes this book such a staggering and fascinating spiritual text. It is this unique shift between scientific precision and creative beauty that makes ‘Decade of Deceit’ a must-read.
Collections of articles can be tedious, but sometimes they can also provide us with a glimpse into the workings of a sharp and astute prophetic mind. ‘Decade of Deceit’ introduces us to an ethical thinker and the ways in which he has formed his thoughts about Israel, Palestine, the USA, contemporary politics, and ourselves – the witnesses of our own emerging tragedy.

Hasbara today -Activists or Lobbyists – Who Profits from BDS?
An Israeli Hasbara site suggested today that Norman Finkelstein and myself are BDS’s biggest ‘profiteers’, well ahead of Omar Barghouti, Ali Abunimah and Ben White. The Zionist behind the site probably doesn’t realise that Finkelstein and myself are both subject to BDS’ harassment and I am subject to a call for disavowal by the three lesser earners on the list - Abunimah, Barghouti and White. Maybe it is all about envy...
Note – all my activities for Palestine & human rights are all free of charge. I make a living being a Jazz artist.
