Unlike some previous proposals for the creation of a Palestinian state, the recent U.S. peace plan leaves the easternmost area of the West Bank under Israeli control. This arrangement also strengthens the security of the Kingdom of Jordan, writes Efraim Inbar, which has itself long seen the Palestinian national movement as a threat: Israel and Jordan share various interests, including support for the American presence in the region, opposing pan-Arab and pan-Islamic movements and, of course, fighting the rise of radical Islam, Sunni or Shiite

By Joseph Massad for Middle East Eye Western and Israeli propaganda never tire of telling the world of the age-old Israeli quest for peace, and how much Israel longs to be accepted by Palestinians and the rest of the Arab peoples as a Jewish state an oasis of European civilisation lodged smack in the middle of the Arab world. Indeed, the racist wisdom of former Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban (born in South Africa as Aubrey Solomon Meir) that Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity for peace was recently reiterated by US President Donald Trumps son-in-law and adviser, Jared Kushner. Kushner, speaking of Trumps deal of the century, declared on CNN that if Palestinians reject the plan, theyre going to screw up another opportunity, like theyve screwed up every other opportunity that theyve ever had in their existence.

By Omri Boehm / Special to The Washington Post The announcement of President Trumps Middle East Deal of the Century this week basically cedes the West Bank to Israel, allowing the country to seize land that would otherwise have constituted a Palestinian state. Since Palestinian representatives were not invited to the White House for the policys announcement (Trump told reporters last week that the details of the program had been discussed with Palestinian leadership only briefly), the policys significance seems to lie outside the formal proposal; that is, in how Israel, backed by the United States, will respond once the Palestinians reject the offer. In all likelihood, the response will include massive one-sided annexations, empowered by the claim that the Palestinians had refused to compromise

By: David Ben Hooren As the maddening world around seems to have us fixated in historic impeachment hearings, potential military engagement with Iran, and the third Israeli Knesset election in less than a year, most American Jews are now in for yet another shocking revelation on the political landscape. For those not in the know, the time has arrived once again for a conglomeration of Jewish organizations to compete against one another in the frenetic voting for the 38th World Zionist Congress. The Jewish Agency of Israel building in Jerusalem.

Senator Bernie Sanders and his wife Jane appear on stage with their grandchildren after a campaign rally in San Francisco, California. (Stephen Lam / Getty Images) Subscribe now for as little as $2 a month! This week, the Democratic Majority for Israel (DFMI), a new pro-Israel organization founded by AIPAC-affiliated politicos, launched its first major ad buy just ahead of the Iowa caucuses: a nearly $700,000 salvo against Senator Bernie Sanders.Ad Policy Part of whats notable about the ad by the pro-Israel group is that it doesnt mention Israel, Palestine, or foreign policy at all. Instead, the ad casts doubt on an issue very important to all Democrats: the possibility that Zayde Bernie (Grandpa Bernie) might beat Donald Trump in the general election.

In this week where the 75th Anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz is remembered, it seems that memory and taking lessons from history are sometimes, at odds. The efforts to stifle free expression, a foundational threat to any free society, are waxing. The good news is that there is a growing ability to push back against such expected and well-funded efforts.

President Trump has hardly attempted to hide his contempt for the Palestinian people. His unveiling of the Deal of the Century on Tuesday revealed in the clearest way possible what he thinks of the millions of Palestinians in the occupied territories, inside Israel, and in the diaspora who would be affected by his peace deal.

In a detailed study of the origins, activities, successes, and failures of the movement to boycott, sanction, and divest from the Jewish state (BDS), David May shows that economic warfare against Zionism dates back nearly 100 years: During the Fifth Palestine Arab Congress in 1922, Arab leaders encouraged an official boycott of Jewish businesses, as they would at subsequent conferences. . . . On December 2, 1945, three years before Israels founding, the newly formed League of Arab States sought to address the Zionist danger by enacting a general boycott of the Jewish presence in Palestine
