As antisemitism and anti-Muslim hate flare across the west, Jewish and Muslim communities are being pitted against each other.
If these hatreds rise together, feeding on conspiracy theories and the politics of fear, they cannot be defeated apart. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
The two hatreds have rarely been seen as related dangers. But they overlap even as Muslim and Jewish communities are pitted against each other
US media outlets are willing to butcher the English language — along with common sense and human decency — to avoid stating a basic fact: Israel is expanding its occupation of southern Lebanon
These ‘condemnations’ are nothing more than attempts to avoid talking about sanctions against Israel.
As long as they avoid real measures, everything the French (and others) say about Israel is utterly meaningless.

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stated on Sunday that his country rejects Israel’s occupation of Beaufort Castle and its expanded control over more Lebanese territory.
Trump claims he's "calling all the shots" on Iran. Netanyahu's choices show otherwise.
