Bernie Sanders’ Jewish Outreach Director Suspended for Blunt and Honest Criticism of Netanyahu Government

The US presidential campaign of Bernie Sanders has suspended its new Jewish Outreach Director over the tone of her past criticism of Israel, for daring to speak the truth!

‘Simone Zimmerman, a former J Street student activist, was recently hired by the Sanders campaign. She wrote last year on Facebook,
“Bibi Netanyahu is arrogant, deceptive, cynical, manipulative, according to the Washington­ based Free Beacon.”
She continued:
“F— you, Bibi, for daring to insist that you legitimately represent even a fraction of the Jews in this world, for your consistent fear­mongering, for pushing Israel in word and deed, farther and farther away from the international community, and most importantly, for trying to derail a potentially historic diplomatic deal with Iran and thus trying to distract the world from the fact that you sanctioned the murder of over 2,000 people this summer.”
And that neatly encapsulates the truth. It is timely that a Jewish American has dared to stand up to AIPAC to boldly speak the truth ­ and to refuse to be intimidated by the all-too-powerful, Likud Zionist propaganda of the Israel lobby.

Now we need a Jewish Londoner to stand up and be as equally blunt and honest about the Netanyahu government; its hundreds of undeclared WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) and its illegal settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories that continue to violate the Geneva Conventions and international law in its attempt to prevent the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.

The world must support the global BDS Campaign to apply economic pressure in order to achieve human rights for 5 million dispossessed, indigenous Arabs. Just as in South Africa against the apartheid regime, ordinary people worldwide must continue to persuade Western governments to apply sanctions to achieve democratic rights for the entire people of former Palestine.

EDITORIAL: Be Careful Italy

Ne News 2 June 2018 As you may be aware, there was a constitutional crisis in Italy following the decision to make a Eurosceptic Italian Finance Minister, which resulted in the Italian President to dissolve the government. Just a couple of days ago, this was resolved. However, it is worth noting that one of the parties in this coalition is the far-right wing Northern League, as well as the Five Star Movement. However, the people of Italy must be careful, especially in regards to the Northern League, as they may be the party to destroy Italy’s sovereignty and hand it over to the unelected and unaccountable European Union, which is increasingly becoming a fascist police state. That’s right, despite denying it and claiming that they are Eurosceptics, the Northern League may actually be the most pro-European Union party in the Italian Government. Throughout the world (and in particular the Western World), we are seeing the rise of far-right wing parties who claim ...

The French “Patriot Act”: Why is France Extending Its State of Emergency? From Pseudo-Democracy to Dictatorship

Guillaume Kress Global Research 19 February 2016 President Francois Hollande, whose legitimacy stems from nothing but a fraudulent multiparty electoral system , has repeatedly abused his authority  since taking office in 2012 by waging illegal wars in foreign countries (i.e., Mali, Syria) without consulting his electors. [1] He  recently failed to confer with them when his Socialist government responded to last year’s terrorist attacks in Paris by adopting Orwellian domestic policies – policies that have allowed the Hollande administration to spy on citizens , block websites containing “terrorist related content” , strip convicted “terrorists” of French citizenship , and criminalize activism against Israeli occupation .[2] These policies prevent the spread of information which may expose the government’s criminal activities. We should note, here, that the state of emergency greatly facilitates political corruption. [3] To put it briefly, the state of...

Afghanistan, Iraq. Hollywood’s Complicity: How Soon the Suckers Forget!

Philip A. Farruggio Global Research 12 May 2018 Featured image: George W. Bush with Ellen Degeneres, backstage after the former President appeared on “Ellen” and was hailed by her as a good friend (Source: @theellenshow/Instagram) How many lies and how many innocent lives have been sent out into the ethers by men like Junior Bush and his Bush/Cheney Cabal? Too many is the answer. Yet, as with the case with the Irish singing star (and humanitarian) Bono, Junior Bush has been ‘Born Again Philanthropist’. Well, good for him, but… that should not and DOES not absolve him from his war crimes. Screenshot AVC News, May 27, 2017 The real shame of all of this is just how short a memory do Ms. Ellen Degeneres and Mr. Bono have? I mean, come on you two  Media stars , have you both forgotten what transpired beginning in October of 2001? Does this writer need to once again review the  horrific  damage we,  and  our NATO led coal...
