Pro-Israel lawyer faked graffiti attack

Matthew Berlow lied that Palestine solidarity group was culprit.

electronicintifada.net

A pro-Israel lawyer is facing a fine from the Scottish regulator after helping fabricate a graffiti attack on his home in Glasgow.

Using a fake “pro-Palestinian” persona, a fellow pro-Israel activist claimed on Facebook in January last year that there had been an attack on Matthew Berlow’s home.

“A certain Jewish lawyer woke up this morning to find ‘Free Palestine’ spray painted rather prominently – no idea who was responsible,” the imposter wrote under the fake name “Stevie.”

Smearing the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Berlow replied in a comment underneath that the graffiti was “Typical SPSC behavior. Criminal.”

But Berlow has now admitted the attack never took place – and that he knew the “Stevie” poster was fake at the time.

The Zionist Campaign Against Free Speech On Campus

For more than 40 years, the Washington Report has published insightful analysis of the political, economic and historical realities of the U.S.-Middle East relationship. Our magazine is packed with special reports on the Israeli- Palestinian peace process, current Middle East issues, and...

At the same time, however, the avalanche of attacks on free speech reveals the lobby’s insecurities over the extent to which Palestinian advocacy has entered into mainstream organizations and especially college campuses. “It has become less of a taboo to advocate for Palestine,” Mattar explained, as the “bonds between Palestine advocates and mainstream organizations are becoming more acceptable. Despite all these attacks and harassment, it is rooted in a just cause and nothing can change that reality.”

“As the movement grows in the United States, so does the effort at suppression,” LaHood noted. The pro-Israel lobby “exerts pressure on schools to crack down.” Tactics include urging donors to threaten to withdraw funding as well as threats to spread publicity that might weaken community support for universities.

JVP Joins Successful Campaign for Omar, Squad Reelection Bids

Waging Peace
Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) conducted a grassroots promotional and fundraising campaign this summer in support of incumbent pro-Palestinian “Squad” members facing Democratic primary elections.

JVP Action, a year-old political arm of the progressive Jewish advocacy group, secured the support of high-profile pro-Palestinian activists on behalf of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s landslide victory on Aug. 11 over Antone Melton-Meaux, who was heavily funded by the Israel lobby. Angela Davis, Naomi Klein and Omar herself were among the participants in JVP-sponsored fundraising webinars just prior to the primary election in Minnesota’s fifth congressional district.

“Those luminaries were showing up for Ilhan,” the most targeted and heavily vilified member of the Squad, JVP Executive Director Stefanie Fox noted. Other Squad members include Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)—both of whom cruised to victory in this summer’s primaries—as well as Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), who was unopposed.

Nevertheless, the landslide victories of the Squad, as well as the triumph of like-minded newcomers, headlined by pro-Palestinian Jamaal Bowman—who crushed 16-term incumbent and Israel lobby stalwart Eliot Engel in New York’s 16th congressional district—underscores growing pressure on the uncritically pro-Israeli Democratic mainstream.

Jewish settler torch agricultural land in W. Bank town of Mikhmas

A group of Jewish settlers on Saturday set fire to swaths of agricultural land belonging to Palestinian citizens in Mikhmas town in the northeast of Occupied Jerusalem.

english.palinfo.com

According to local sources, a horde of settlers were seen touring an area near Mikhmas town before entering a Palestinian-owned grove and then setting trees ablaze.

Eyewitnesses said that the settlers fled the area and ran towards illegal settlements near the town.

Many olive trees were burned in the fire after the local residents experienced difficulty in extinguishing and controlling the flames due to the rugged nature of the area and the presence of Israeli soldiers who prevented them from reaching some plots of land.

Search for new director of U of T law faculty’s International Human Rights Program leads to resignations, allegations of interference

After the dean is accused of rescinding an offer to a prominent international academic under pressure over her views, the university says no offers were revoked.

www.thestar.com

The faculty advisory board of the International Human Rights Program (IHRP) at the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Law has resigned following a controversy over the hiring of a new director for the program.

Edward Iacobucci, dean of the prestigious law school, has come under fire, accused of rescinding an offer of directorship to prominent international academic Valentina Azarova.

Several national and international scholars wrote to the university to express their consternation that the reversal came after reports of pressure from a sitting judge — a major donor to the faculty. He reportedly expressed concerns in private over Azarova’s past work on the issue of Israel’s human rights abuses in Palestine. All the letters mentioned here have been seen by the Star.

Up to 1 in 4 US Jews sees Zionism as racist, colonialist apartheid movement! (says rightwing Israeli thinktank)

Despite Jewish organizations’ efforts to smear Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, rightwing Israeli thinktank finds that 31 percent of US Jews would vote for them.

mondoweiss.net

One quarter of American Jews express intensely critical ideas about Israel and Zionism, including that Israel is racist, colonial and apartheid. More than that, 31 percent, would vote for Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar regardless of Israel lobby smears of the two congresswomen as antisemitic. Despite the efforts of Israel lobby organizations to blame the left for antisemitism, American Jews don’t buy it: 51 percent see the right as the source of antisemitism, while only 12 percent see the left as playing an equal or greater part in promoting it.

These are the findings of a survey by a rightwing thinktank, the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, titled, “American Jewry in Transition: How Attitudes Toward Israel May Be Shifting. Released in July, I only saw the poll now because J Street liked its conclusion that liberal American Jews can be pro-Israel and alienated by the rightwing Israeli government.

The most interesting discovery is that Palestinian solidarity is increasing inside the Jewish community. And as many as one fourth of the 700 American Jews the JCPA surveyed are anti-Zionist!

(COMMENT)

FIRST: As far as what will be discussed and what will NOT be discussed is inconsequential. You have a voice, so speak. But, as I always have to remind you, PLEASE check your facts.

In A/RES/3379 (XXX) (Elimination of all forms of racial discrimination) (1975) states: "Determines that zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination." Upon reflection, and for a number of different reasons, the UN General Assembly should not have come to this determination. And what the pro-Arab Palestinian Movements fail to present is that A/RES/46/86 (Elimination of racism and racial discrimination)(1991) "Decides to revoke the determination contained in its resolution 3379 (XXX)." This question about the connection (if any) between "Zionism" and "racism" has been asked and answered. The fact that the Arab Palestinians today, some three decades later, are making a bid on this claim once again, is ridiculous. It is tantamount to purposefully misrepresenting the information.​

SECOND: Investigation of "War Crimes."

​

war crimes Generally defined as violations of the laws or customs of war. Thus, art. 6(b) of the Charter of the (Nuremberg) International Military Tribunal of 8 August 1945 ( 82 U.N.T.S. 279 ) included within the Tribunal’s jurisdiction ‘ War crimes: namely, violations of the laws or customs of war. Such violations shall include, but not be limited to, murder, ill-treatment or deportation to slave labour or for any other purpose of civilian populations of or in occupied territory, murder or ill-treatment of prisoners of war or persons on the seas, killing of hostages, the plunder of public or private property, wanton destruction of cities, towns or villages, or devastation not justified by military necessity.’ War crimes are the earliest instances of international criminal law—and form the core of international humanitarian law. See Freidman, The Law of War: A Documentary History ( 1972 ); Dunlap, Pritchard, and Carey, International Humanitarian Law: Origins 2003.​

A list of the Customary and International Humanitarian Law Rules (C&IHL Rules) are the keys to understanding "War Crimes." The selective enforcement of the C&IHL Rules (only Investigatinging Israel) is in itself the exact opposite of the intent of the fair and justice concepts.

​

Probably more than 90% of the civilian fatalities could have been avoided if the Arab Palestinian Leadership followed these to rules in particular.
There would have been "NO CLASH" between the opponents if the Arab Palestinian Leadership had not chosen to employ thousands of civilians to charge the Israeli Border Perimeter. The question here is: Is any country permitted to defend its borders?

The Canadians have to ask themselves: Does the "Arrow of Law" run only in one direction? Should the Arab Palestinians be given a free pass, but the Israels must be prosecuted for defending their sovereign territory? How do Canadians want to be perceived in terms of the application of the law?

Finally, what do the Canadians expect to accomplish?

International law does not enforce itself. It is enforced by the countries of the world. When those countries are in bed with the criminals, civil society must coax those countries into action.

Should the Arab Palestinians be given a free pass, but the Israels must be prosecuted for defending their sovereign territory?

Of course that is a load of crap. Israel is defending its settler colonial project.

Israeli soldiers invaded, on Sunday afternoon, the ath-Thahrat area, north of Douma village, south of the northern West Bank city of Nablus, and confiscated a bulldozer while Palestinian workers were preparing for paving a new road.


Ghassan Daghlas, a Palestinian Authority official who monitors Israel’s colonialist activities in northern West Bank, said the bulldozer is owned by Mousa Zeineddin, and that the soldiers informed him that they will keep the bulldozer “until further notice.”
