Deal with Iran strengthens fight against injustice

Posted on July 15, 2015July 15, 2015 By rayhanania No Comments on Deal with Iran strengthens fight against injustice

American led deal with Iran will bring security and justice to the Middle East region. And that’s why Israel’s government is so against it. Israel’s government doesn’t want security. It wants tension. Tension and the threat of conflict justifies their fear-mongering and strengthens their ability to bully Americans to support their needs, and turn a blind eye towards Israel…

Posted on July 14, 2015September 24, 2018 By rayhanania No Comments on Paris company releases new Yom Kippur war game app
Paris company releases new Yom Kippur war game app

The 1973 Arab-Israeli war briefly changed the dynamics of Israel’s hegemony over the Arab World, and pushed Israel to address its intransigence and refusal to recognize Arab rights. But it didn’t take long for Israel to compromise Egypt’s President Anwar Sadat with false promises of negotiating a comprehensive peace that would include a Palestine State….

Time to Control Israel’s Nuclear Hypocrisies

Posted on April 13, 2015September 24, 2018 By rayhanania 2 Comments on Time to Control Israel’s Nuclear Hypocrisies

Time to Control Israel’s Nuclear Hypocrisies Israel is doing everything it can to undermine any deal on nuclear energy with Iran, not to make the world safer but to preserve its hegemony in the world. Conflict is the engine that sustains and drives today’s Israel, which is governed by extremists and fanatics who thrive in…

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…

Racism plays hard in Israeli elections

Posted on March 19, 2015March 19, 2015 By rayhanania No Comments on Racism plays hard in Israeli elections

Netanyahu’s party took the most seats in the Israeli Knesset election by using a last minute racist push that is similar to the efforts to prevent Blacks from winning office in America. But the key is while Obama and Europe have stood up to Netanyahu’s racism and Apartheid-like policies, where is the Arab World to stand…

Bias of American mainstream news media on Israel and Iran

Posted on February 23, 2015February 25, 2015 By rayhanania No Comments on Bias of American mainstream news media on Israel and Iran
Bias of American mainstream news media on Israel and Iran

You can better appreciate the bias of the mainstream American news media when you look closely at the issue of Israel, Iran and Nuclear weapons. No country has been more violent than Israel and yet Israel wants you to look closely at Iran. And while Israel wants the world to closely scrutinize Iran’s nuclear ambitions,…

Israel Provoking Violence as a Political Weapon

Posted on December 1, 2014September 24, 2018 By rayhanania 1 Comment on Israel Provoking Violence as a Political Weapon

By Ray Hanania There is absolutely no justification for terrorism. And the terrorist attacks committed recently in Jerusalem — all of them by Israelis and by Palestinians — should be denounced. But unfortunately, that is not the case. The only terrorism being denounced are attacks by Palestinians against Israelis, including the recent killing of Jewish…

Palestinians can’t condemn Israeli atrocities if they don’t condemn their own

Posted on November 21, 2014September 24, 2018 By rayhanania 2 Comments on Palestinians can’t condemn Israeli atrocities if they don’t condemn their own

Without condemning Palestinian atrocities against Israelis, the Palestinians lose the moral high ground and weaken their ability to condemn the many atrocities committed by Israelis. Arab fanatics, however, argue that Palestinian atrocities are not atrocities at all, and the only atrocities are committed by Israelis. That false logic undermines the powerful cause of the Palestinian people….
