Kerry’s Coup from Mediator to Antagonist
11-12-2013 11:25
Kerry’s shuttle diplomacy during his current trip seems more aimed at controlling the damage his “ideas - proposal” caused than at facilitating the deadlocked Palestinian – Israeli bilateral talks.Does Israel Have a Right to Exist?
06-12-2013 19:00
This question has been asked many times, and more often than not in a merely selective interest rather than from an absolute position. By its own definition Israel is a state entity and therefore it cannot have any of the qualities of a natural person. Material constructs do not bear absolute rights. These are singular to the natural being – nature has a right to exist – and can only be lost but not gained by force – no conqueror of nature can obtain them by taking them away from it. The wording of the question is expressing a conceptual aberration on the matter of hierarchy analysis and it should be rephrased according to the situation in which it might appear. But that it is being asked in this specific form indicates a distortion of meaning within the concept of statehood: There are states which are nothing but functions of other states. The false totality bites itself. Certainly this is a historical footnote on the absurdity of trying to avoid Anarchy. In the misguiding ideology the planet is expected to burden itself with the failing hierarchies of the state, even if they would break it. Does Israel have a purpose on the way out of this capitalist misery or is it no better than the false totality statehood brought about?Syria, Egypt Reveal Erdogan’s ‘Hidden Agenda’

Erdogan obviously is seeking to recruit Muslims as merely “soldiers” who will fight not for Islam per se, but for his neo-Ottomanism ambitions. Early enough in December 1997, he was given a 10-month prison sentence for voicing a poem that read: “The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers;” the poem was considered a violation of Kemalism by the secular judiciary.Say “No” to the Israeli sponsored film festival

Drying up Ideological Wellsprings of Arab – Israeli Conflict
30-10-2013 10:07
The “wellsprings” of “perpetual wars” and “extremism” in the Middle East during most of the past twentieth century until now could easily be detected in the unholy combination of real politics and the “radical ideology” of the secular - turned - religious Zionism.Bedouin As Well As Palestinians Suffer Under Netanyahu's Rule

Me, Gilad Atzmon and the'Truth'

Housekeeping: This article is by an IMCista. It does not easily fit the Indymedia uk guidelines, but we did discuss it as a collective, and agreed it could be posted. I have put much thinking into its writing, and I am clearly identifiable as a result of putting so much of myself into it. It will make some people very uncomfortable and it is likely to generate some hostile responses and trolling. If people choose to troll or attack anonymously, they should expect their posts to be hidden. If people are disrespectful they should expect the same.
____________________________________________________Whilst thinking about the issues in this article, I also discussed it with some people. One person noted in a discussion that:
Feeling that you are set apart by historical experiences and by a sacred text can allow for that defensive feeling to seem justified.
It isn't a big step from realising that to realising that:
Understanding that you are set aside by historical experiences and by a sacred text can allow for that defensive feeling to be overcome.
I thank them for that, and ask that you think about this whilst trying to understand the points I have struggled to express here.
This piece could also have been called "We need to talk about (and with) Gilad."
