during this period to come out and threaten Palestinians working in their

and condoned by Israeli soldiers and police, who often staged a preemptive
presence, even before the settlers appeared.

Commentary: AIPAC and liege fealty Israel is the largest recipient of direct economic and military U.S. aid since the creation of the Jewish state 60 years ago. It also receives its annual aid from the United States at the beginning of the fiscal year so that it can earn interest. Other foreign aid recipients get aid in quarterly installments......Bellicose anti-Iran statements at the AIPAC convention got the biggest hand. Neocon kingpin Richard Perle made another pitch to put Iran next on the terrorist regime hit list.

Banned in the U.S.A. (Almost) I was scheduled to speak at Politics & Prose Bookstore and Coffeehouse last month about my latest book, "Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation." My appearance was canceled when the bookstore owners realized that my book concludes by questioning the viability of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Instead it proposes a single democratic, secular and multicultural state in which Israelis and Palestinians live peacefully as citizens with equal rights.

RFK in Palestine Members of the Irgun, the Jewish fighters responsible for the 1946 bombing of the King David Hotel that killed 91 people, told RFK "that if it weren't for their so-called terrorist activities the British would have remained on in their country...The question, though, in other Jews' minds is whether this compensated for what they have lost in good will by such tactics.".....An early departure of the British has been far more important strategically to the Jews than to the Arabs. Reading through his article excerpts, one can clearly see with which side RFK sympathized.
Israel ponders implications for Jewish state of Obama presidency Some in government quarters are concerned that Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee, might be soft on Iran, pressure Israel to make concessions on the Palestinian track and even change the tenor of the strategic relationship between Israel and the United States.....The consensus was that because support for Israel is so strong in both Congress and American public opinion, no president would take a radically different tack.

Analysis: Growing talk of Iran attack One scenario being discussed by Israeli analysts is that there could be an attack, by Israel or by the Americans, after the US election in November and before the new president is inaugurated in January, with the tacit consent of the incoming president. That might be easier if it is Senator Obama's Republican rival John McCain.
