Britain to Shield Israeli War Criminals
(source:Abdel Bari Atwan's Website)

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is implementing changes to British Law aimed at protecting Israeli war criminals implicated in atrocities carried out by Israeli soldiers in the Gaza Strip from arrest and prosecution.This step follows on from a pledge made by Brown to Tzipi Livni after a warrant for her arrest was issued by a British judge should she step foot in the UK [in December 2009].

That the British judiciary should be so flagrantly compromised to satisfy Brown's Israeli friends -whose hands are stained with the blood of Palestinian women, children, and innocent people whose bodies were torn part by Israeli rockets and phosphorus bombs - is a historical disgrace which casts shame on British democracy, the principle of separation of authorities, and the value of championing the downtrodden and victims of crime.

Diplomatic Row Brews in Hunt For Assassins
Cops leave airport empty-handed

Saturady Star - March 06, 2010 Edition 1

By Bianca Capazorio

Claims that OR Tambo International Airport was used as an escape route for Mossad assassins could reignite old tensions between the South African security establishment and Israeli airline El Al, which has close links to the Israeli government.

The airline had already missed a February 28 deadline to clean up its act at South African airports when it became known that at least two of the alleged killers of a Palestinian arms smuggler in Dubai last month had left the Arab emirate on a flight for Joburg. Once there, they caught an El Al aircraft for Tel Aviv.

All 26 suspects left Dubai within 12 hours of the killing of Mahmoud Mabhouh on January 20. Mabhouh, believed to be running guns into Gaza for Hamas, was found dead in the five-star Al Bustan Rotana Hotel. It is believed that he was stunned before being suffocated.

Book Review
My Father was a Freedom Fighter: Gaza's Untold Story. Ramzy Baroud. Pluto Press, London: 2010.

By Deepak Tripathi

(source: Palestine Chronicle)

book cover

In the foreword to Ramzy Baroud’s book, Palestinian scholar Salman Abu Sitta refers to a bold assertion by David Ben Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister, in June 1948 – soon after the declaration of the state of Israel and in the midst of large-scale cleansing of Palestinians from their homeland. “Not one refugee will return,” proclaimed Ben Gurion, “The old will die. The young will forget.”

To some living at the time, it would have sounded like a hasty prediction. Not only has the Palestinian tragedy lasted six decades and more, its consequences today go beyond Palestine, the Arab world, even the Middle East. It lies at the heart of a much wider and far more serious crisis facing the world. How wrong Ben Gurion was. There cannot be another conclusion.

The seeds of the Palestinian tragedy had been sown while the Ottoman Empire was collapsing under British and French pressure almost a century ago. In a covert pact stitched in 1916, known as the Sykes-Picot Agreement, Britain and France, with the assent of Imperial Russia, determined the fate of Palestine as a largely internationalized territory.

For The Record - Star

iqbal jassatharrath

January 27,2010 Edition 2

The Star reported yesterday in an article headlined "DStv channel chief executive granted interdict in Tunisian extradition case" that newspaper reports in the UK claimed that Media Review Network chairman Iqbal Jassat worked for Scotland Yard as an adviser on preventing terrorism. This is incorrect. In fact, reports in British newspapers suggested that Mohamed Ali Harrath, the chief executive of the London-based Islam Channel, worked for Scotland Yard.
