Author: Jafar Ramini

Jafar M Ramini is a Palestinian writer, commentator and analyst on Middle Eastern affairs living in London. He was born in Jenin, northern Palestine, was educated in England and spent the early years of his working life in the Arabian Gulf and Saudi Arabia. He has traveled far and wide, searching for the answer to a question that still eludes him. Why does the United States of America support the Zionist line in such a blind folded way while ignoring the legitimate rights of the indigenous Palestinian people? Particularly as the Palestinian people harbour no ill feelings towards America and its people nor has ever caused them any harm. It is, Jafar says, a conundrum. Email him at: [email protected]

A home denied: the Zionist ethnic cleansing of Palestine

A home denied. Looking back at the truth of Zionism and its leaders in ethnically cleansing Christian and Muslims from Palestine to create their exclusive state, Israel. By Jafar M. Ramini They came uninvited. The Zionist zealots arrived on our shores with the Bible in one hand and a machine gun in the other. They…

The Real Nakbah

Posted on May 14, 2015May 19, 2015 By Jafar Ramini No Comments on The Real Nakbah

By Jafar M Ramini These are very difficult times for us. We Palestinians are going through an emotional upheaval that stirs our hearts and squeezes our tear ducts. For it was on May 15th 1948 that the Jewish terrorist armies attacked many villages and towns in Palestine destroying over 600 of them and driving around…

Palestine Endgame: Confront Israel, peace not achieveable

Posted on March 22, 2015 By Jafar Ramini 2 Comments on Palestine Endgame: Confront Israel, peace not achieveable

By Jafar M. Ramini It took the Zionists with all their money, political power and influence around the world over a century to steal Palestine from us, the legal owners. They used every trick and every guile in the book to convince the world that they were the only victims and they deserved all the…

Future of Middle East: Between a rock and a hard place

Posted on February 10, 2015February 18, 2015 By Jafar Ramini No Comments on Future of Middle East: Between a rock and a hard place

By Jafar M. Ramini I am in a quandary, torn like no other time before between throwing in the towel and calling it a day or continuing on the same path with no end in sight. What brought this state of confusion and uncertainty in my mind and heart is the wall-to-wall media coverage of…

The Death of Reason: American bias when it comes to Justice

Posted on January 21, 2015January 21, 2015 By Jafar Ramini No Comments on The Death of Reason: American bias when it comes to Justice

By Jafar M. Ramini The late John F. Kennedy, the only President of the United States of America since WW2 with any integrity, once said about justice, “We cannot negotiate with people who say what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is negotiable.” (The White House, July 25, 1961) Let’s try to equate this with…

Zionism is the cause of Middle East violence

Posted on January 12, 2015January 12, 2015 By Jafar Ramini 2 Comments on Zionism is the cause of Middle East violence
Zionism is the cause of Middle East violence

By Jafar M. Ramini In the last 125 years, Zionism has enjoyed what I would call ‘a golden age’. They had a plan. They had the finances. They had the cunning. They had brute force and they were not bashful about using it. A group of Atheists looking for a destination to put down roots…
