any people [Jews] that has been persecuted for two thousand years must be doing something wrong

Henry Kissinger (who is Jewish)

Throughout my career, the political ruling elite has been enacting piecemeal a version of “universal” healthcare coverage to satisfy the demands of an increasingly vocal, but also increasingly disenfranchised citizenry. Our overlords, of course, have been more motivated by enhancing corporate bottom lines and enriching themselves, than in genuinely helping the peasantry.

Robert S. Dotson, M.D.

The [Christian] church is the reason America is losing its liberties.

Chuck Baldwin, Baptist minister [10 min 5 sec]

Why Hamas Rejected the Cease-Fire

Submitted by Guest on Wed, 07/16/2014 - 00:19

The Real News

Hawaii Political News introduction: Lia Tarachansky is a Russian Jew and Paul Jay, head of The Real News, is also Jewish (personal email from Paul).

Lia Tarachansky is an Israeli-Russian journalist with The Real News Network reporting on Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories. Born in the Soviet Union, Tarachansky grew up in a settlement in the occupied West Bank. She is the director of On the Side of the Road, a documentary on Israel's biggest taboo - the events of 1948 when the state was created. Tarachansky previously worked as a Newsroom Producer in The Real News' Washington D.C. and Toronto Headquarters, and her work appeared on BBC, Al Jazeera, USA Today, Canadian Dimension Magazine and others.
Precis

On Monday night the press became aware that a ceasefire proposal was being crafted by the Egyptian government in negotiation with Israel and the former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The proposal was delivered to the Hamas leadership shortly before the deadline was to take into effect, and did not include the demands the Hamas party put forward already on the second day of the fighting, conditions that would score the group political capital, namely - the release of its rearrested members, jailed in recent weeks by Israel, the lifting of the 8 year-long blockade on the strip, and the end of fire. When Hamas' main political rival - The Islamic Jihad - announced they reject the Egyptian proposal, Hamas followed suit, leading to international criticism. The Real News' Lia Tarachansky spoke to Gaza-based blogger Nalan al Sarraj.
