The Jewish population in the settlements, meanwhile, has grown to 310,000, tripling in less than 20 years.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this wide-ranging interview, Rashid Khalidi has some harsh words for President Barack Obama, describing his UN speech in September as the worst ever by an American president. Khalidi also reviews the way in which US policy toward the conflict was transformed over decades, and discusses why AIPAC (the American Israel Public Affairs Committee) is far more effective today than it was in the 1970s and 1980s. Although he sees no hope at present for a just US policy, this could change if public opinion – which is much more enlightened than that of U.S. policy makers – is expressed through the media and at the political level.]]></description>

If you still believe that - you have to have your head examined.”]]></description>

But I never assumed that this would be someone who would be able to break the whole mold of American politics. And he didn’t. Quite the contrary.

Of course Israel's defenders will say 'oh, the law is ambiguous', but we can very easily show that it's not. The law is very clear. There is no respectable institution or organisation in the world today which says that the settlements are legal. You go from the International Court of Justice to human rights organisations... you can't name one.]]></description>

They're angry because he doesn't bother to cover up the gap between the words and the bulldozers. It makes it harder for them to conceal the falsehood in US and European policy. A policy which supposedly seeks peace in the region and a state for the Palestinians; in practice, one that collaborates with Israel's aim to impose a capitulation arrangement on the Palestinians.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ross has played a crucial role in crafting Middle East policies that have prolonged and exacerbated the more than six-decade conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. His efforts contributed significantly to the growth in the number of Israeli settlers in the occupied Palestinian territories from well under 200,000 in the 1980s to nearly 600,000 today. It is in no small measure due to him that the two-state solution is all but dead.]]></description>

This is a reversal of history: in 1948, the US regarded the prospect of an Israeli declaration of independence as a threat to its interests in the region, and the State Department, Defence Department and CIA were worried about such an outcome.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[US cooperation with Israel [includes] various security concerns, from Israel's undertakings of tasks the US might not be willing to do, to sharing intelligence and missile defense cooperation, to the Israeli expertise in cyber security that has already benefitted U.S. banking, communications, transportation and utilities.

<font color="#C60202"><strong><em>IOA</em></strong></font> <strong>Editor:</strong> The full report on which the article is based, entitled <i>Israel: A Strategic Asset for the US</i>, can be downloaded on the article page. Highly recommended by Moshé Machover as "an antidote to the widespread thesis that the Israeli/Zionist tail is wagging the US dog. The US imperialists are not innocents coerced or manipulated by the evil Zionists. In fact, they are senior and junior partners, respectively."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like thwarted spoiled bullies, both Israel and the US reacted with theatrical pique and fury. The US, never applying sanctions against Israel’s decades- long war crimes in Gaza and the OPT’s by suspending its steadfast cornucopia of billions in aid and arms, immediately withdrew its $80 million contribution to UNESCO as a collective punishment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<strong>Moshe Dayan:</strong> Fundamentally, a Palestinian state is an antithesis of the State of Israel… The basic and naked truth is that there is no fundamental difference between the relation of the Arabs of Nablus to Nablus and that of the Arabs of Jaffa to Jaffa… And if today we set out on this road and say that the Palestinians are entitled to their own state because they are natives of the same country and have the same rights, then it will not end with the West Bank. The West Bank together with the Gaza Strip do not amount to a state… The establishment of such a Palestinian state would lay a cornerstone to something else… Either the State of Israel — or a Palestinian state.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A gang of thugs, the forum of eight senior [Israeli] ministers, decided on the steps to punish the man who dared to act contrary to the desires of the familia. They're building another 2,000 housing units in the settlements, which are for the first time being characterized as punishment. And they're stealing the Palestinians' tax money and canceling some of their leaders' VIP passes.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The responsibility of the solidarity movement ... is not to get caught up in wonkish or wishful “one-versus-two-state” disputations, but to do everything we can to advance the bottom-up struggle where we are. This is all the more important because, while gains can be won now to get the occupation’s foot a little bit off the Palestinians’ neck, no lasting solution seems possible in isolation from a broader democratic revolutionary transformation of the region.]]></description>
