Abbas’s Palestinian Authority Betrayal of Palestine

Mahmoud Abbas’ outrageous betrayal of the Palestinian course by deferring the United Nations Human Rights Council Goldstone Report is a vindication of MEDIA REVIEW NETWORK’S contention over the past few years that the Palestinian Authority, led by Abbas, Sa’ebErakat and Yasser Abed Rabbo and a handful of quislings, do not represent the aspiration of the Palestinian people.

The fact that Libya insisted on the Goldstone Report be debated at the UN Security Council and Abbas’ belated order to "investigate" the "mistake", cannot hide the PA’s complicity with Israel and USA to oppress its people.The threat to abort a massive Israeli-PA Watani cell-phone deal with Abbas’ son, was used to blackmail the PA if it did not do Israel’s bidding.

Dark underbelly of Isaraels security state

What is misleadingly being called in Israel the "Anat Kamm espionage affair" is quickly revealing the dark underbelly of a nation that has worshipped for decades at the altar of a security state.

Next week 23-year-old Kamm is due to stand trial for her life — or rather the state’s demand that she serve a life sentence for passing secret documents to an Israeli reporter, Uri Blau, of the liberal Haaretz daily. She is charged with spying.

Blau himself is in hiding in London, facing, if not a Mossad hit squad, at least the stringent efforts of Israel’s security services to get him back to Israel over the opposition of his editors, who fear he will be put away too.
