In the weeks remaining before Joe Biden’s inauguration, Donald Trump is taking actions — including aiding and abetting murder — to prevent his successor from pursuing diplomacy with Iran. On November 27, Israel assassinated Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, Iran’s top nuclear scientist. International law expert Richard Falk called it “an outrageous act of state […]

National interests will outweigh public’s pro-Palestinian views if Sudan ends up signing a peace pact with Israel, believes a Khartoum-based journalist. But an agreement is still remote, given the fact that the current transitional government doesn’t have the authority to decide on such paramount issues. As Israel boosts its ties with two Gulf countries, a report has emerged stipulating that another nation is on its way to establish official relations with the Jewish state. Several days ago, it was reported that the Sudanese Sovereignty Council decided to go ahead with the normalisation process, following alleged US pressure that gave Khartoum 24 […]
The Medinet Habu temple was built in honour of pharaoh Ramses III, considered to be the last great monarch of the Egyptian Empire. Ramses III played a key role in Egypt’s victory over invaders known as the Sea Peoples. A mural that has been recently discovered in an Egyptian temple sheds light on the Kingdom of “one of Israel’s greatest enemies” – the Philistines, said Tom Meyer, professor of Bible studies at Shasta Bible College and Graduate School in California. According to Meyer, the 3,200-year-old mural gives an insight “into the fashion, employment, clothing, weaponry, instruments, modes of transportation and livestock […]
Secretary-General of the Arab League Ahmed Aboul Gheit has condemned Israel’s move to approve the construction of around 2,000 new housing units in the settlements of the occupied West Bank. In comments released on Thursday, Aboul Gheit noted that the resumption of illegal settlement activity comes despite the Israeli government’s claims that it is seeking peace in the region. The approvals remain a formidable obstacle to the implementation of a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, he said. “[The] Netanyahu government’s insistence on moving forward with settlement activity to satisfy the extreme right wing reflects its rejection […]
A debate in Parliament recently on the Occupied Palestinian Territories drew some very silly remarks from the ‘usual suspects’. It was opened in commonsense vein by Stephen Kinnock who said: “It is so vital and urgent that the rule of law be brought to bear as the foundation upon which a viable and sustainable Palestine can be negotiated and built—a Palestine that protects the rights of its citizens and lives in peace with its neighbours. “The illegal Israeli settlements…. cause violence on a daily basis and they are a flagrant breach of international law, yet they continue and expand. In 2018, […]
Israel’s hospital system is overwhelmed and on a fast track to collapse, according to the nation’s top experts responsible for COVID-19 patients. At an extraordinary press conference, Dr. Avishai Elis, the secretary of the Israel’s Internal Medicine Association, warned the public of an imminent disaster and the “tragic implications” of the paralysis which has taken hold of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government regarding the nation’s hospitals. Two weeks ago, Israel became the first country in the world to impose a second nationwide lockdown, but there is no comprehensive policy in place to fight the novel coronavirus. In a direct swipe at […]
The Covid-19 per-capita death rate in Israel is higher than that of the United States for the first time since the outbreak of the pandemic, that country’s military intelligence reported on Tuesday. Israel’s daily Covid-19-related death rate was 3.5 per million people compared to the US rate of 2.2 per million, according to task force, which is a part of the Israel Defense Forces Military Intelligence Directorate. The daily deaths per capita are calculated by the task force as an average of the previous week. Israel also has a higher infection and mortality rate per million people than the US, France, […]

Earlier in the day, Netanyahu announced a new three-week nationwide lockdown beginning this coming Friday due to resurgence of coronavirus cases. “Netanyahu is indicted in several cases, but he chooses to lock down the country for three weeks — which is madness — and […]

The satellite, built by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), was launched in early July, joining at least two others which the Israeli military already has in orbit. IAI and the Israeli Defence Ministry have unveiled the first images taken by Israel’s new Ofek-16 satellite, with the snaps showing Palmyra, Syria, the UNESCO World Heritage Site which came to international prominence in 2015 during its partial destruction by Daesh (ISIS)* terrorists. The highly-detailed black-and-white photographs show Palmyra’s ancient Roman amphitheater, and the remnants of the Temple of Bel, the holy site consecrated to the ancient Mesopotamian god Bel.

Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor, interviewed by Press TV Mike Pompeo has been leading the charge in the Trump administration to try to trigger the snapback provisions in the Iran nuclear deal, the JCPOA. And this has led to a chorus of derision and mockery from all over the world, not just from sources one would expect, like Foreign Minister Zarif from Iran, but from elsewhere as well even including from John Bolton, who was (Pompeo’s) former extremely hawkish anti-Iran colleague. Everybody is laughing at Pompeo at this point because Pompeo’s position is that even though the United States has left the […]
Last week, Israel and the United Arab Emirates struck a historic deal that established diplomatic relations between the two states. But for some, the agreement is just a sign of a coming doomsday. The Israel-UAE peace deal may be linked to Biblical prophecies that describe events leading to the end of the world, observers from the Bible Prophecy – Signposts of the Times blog claimed. As the United Arab Emirates became the first ever country in the Persian Gulf to normalise ties with Tel Aviv, conspiracy theorists rushed to link this development to what is known as the Gog-Magog alliance, the […]
Israel has been dealing with a renewed COVID-19 outbreak, with the Health Ministry urging to avoid the northern Arab Israeli town of Yarka where cases almost quadrupled over the past week, registering one of the highest rates of infection in the country, according to Haaretz. Israel’s National Coronavirus Project Coordinator Ronni Gamzu sparked outrage on Sunday after remarking that the country’s Arab community had almost carried out a “terror attack” with its behavior resulting in a surge in COVID-19 cases, reported The Times of Israel. “The Arab community has committed in the past fortnight, since Eid al-Adha, almost a terror attack […]
Israel’s new unity government was sworn in on 17 May 2020, following a deal made by political rivals Benjamin Netanyahu, leader of the Likud party, and Benny Gantz, leader of the Blue and White Party. Under a power sharing agreement, Netanyahu will remain as Prime Minister for 18 months, before Gantz takes over in October 2021. Israel’s coalition chairman, MK Miki Zohar, said that the country’s government is unable to function and is about to fall apart, due to the main coalition parties’ disagreements on a number of issues. In an interview with local radio station Kan, Zohar said that “The […]
…by Jonas E. Alexis Hollywood actor Seth Rogen has recently stirred the Zionist pot by saying that Israel’s existence simply “makes no sense” at all. “If it is for truly the preservation of Jewish people, it makes no sense, because again, you don’t keep something you’re trying to preserve all in one place – especially when that place is proven to be pretty volatile, you know?”[1] Rogen is not saying that Israel needs to be annihilated. No, he is positing the claim that Israel’s existence was born out of the blood of Palestinian men, women and children. Rogen is obviously right […]

A perfect storm of grievances has enveloped Israel just as a second coronavirus lockdown appears inevitable and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu seems close to losing control of his government. Protests were held in more than 200 cities and highway junctions all across Israel on Saturday night, and on Sunday, Netanyahu said money from the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was funding the mounting demonstrations. Hard-liner Netanyahu heads a rickety coalition formed only in May with former rival Benny Gantz, a centrist former army chief, following a year and a half in which Israelis went to the polls three times, never giving either […]

TEL AVIV (Sputnik) – The Israeli Health Ministry’s director for public health services Siegal Sadetzki announced on Tuesday she would step down over criticism of the government’s way of handling the coronavirus outbreak amid a sharp increase in new cases. Sadetzki commended the way the government handled the outbreak before the reopening of the economy, but was very critical about what happened after. “[…], I have reached the conclusion that, given the new conditions that have been created, in which my professional opinion is not accepted, I can no longer effectively assist in halting the spread of the virus”, Sadetzki said […]
Israel is currently in a “state of emergency,” in the wake of the alarmingly high number of new coronavirus cases, PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said. The country has smashed past the 10,000 active cases mark and the growth continues. Speaking during the weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday, Netanyahu called on the country’s legislators to work faster on a new package of anti-coronavirus measures. “We’re in a state of emergency. We cannot delay the legislation – we must move forward with it to stop the spread,” the PM stated, referring to the ongoing spike. We’re in the midst of a renewed coronavirus […]

As crowds of demonstrators marched in Palestinian territories on Wednesday, sympathy protests took place across the world, including in the United States, the main foreign backer and enabler of Israel’s West Bank plans. A Palestinian solidarity march took place in Brooklyn, New York on Wednesday, with some protesters warning of a new global conflict should Israel go ahead with plans to take over parts of the West Bank. Protesters chanted “Occupation is a crime” and “From Palestine to Mexico, all the walls have got to go”. Many of the marchers waved Palestinian flags and carried banners reading, “Free Palestine” and “End […]
