The Palestinians march towards an open People Unarmed Revolution
Despite all the obstacles that the Israeli occupation put in the way, the Palestinians continue to struggle for their rights. Although the ways are different, the vision of achieving the Palestinian dream of independence is what unites the whole Palestinian in their struggle for freedom and Human rights.
The Israeli government that is leaded by right and Netanyahu had to face in the last week another challenge and that was the Egyptian anger after the death of five Egyptian soldiers that were killed by the Israeli army on the borders. Hundreds of Egyptians demonstrated for two days in front of the

Some like. But the great majority appear to be increasingly apathetic, if they even care at all.
What else can we call it when less than 10% of American Jews contribute anything to the Jewish Federation, a United Way-type organization that sends a significant portion of its 750 million dollar budget to Israel? Where is the interest if far less than 5% of Jews give to AIPAC, the preeminent pro Israel
The Bomb Israel Should Be Most Worried About
In my last column I wrote about the need for Israel to focus on its Haredi, Arab and ultra-nationalist population bomb, a bomb that threatens Israel’s [singlepic id=425 w=320 h=240 float=right]economy as well as its internal and external Jewish support: ”(Unfortunately, many American Jews) see a Jewish state, yet they recognize their Judaism much more within America’s borders than within Israel’s. Considering Israel’s current demographic trends, this feeling is unlikely to change absent significant internal changes within Israel.
Struggles over terrorism, loyalty oaths, the ultra-Orthodox (Haredi) defining who is a Jew, Israeli Arab housing and education deficiencies, separation

U.S.A policy in Iraq Afghanistan and Israeli Palestinian conflict…Success or Failure?
Once a great power decides to invade another country it makes sure to find someone who will be able to lead the country occupied later.

In its war in Iraq and Afghanistan the United States did not succeed in preparing the countries for the after war period. The American intelligence and political teams thought that the Iraqi opposition which has been outside Iraq since tens of years will succeed in controlling the country after a complete American occupation which was supposed to be ended shortly after the Iraqis take the lead.
