Israel’s Mossad Implicated In Assassination Of Palestinian Political Prisoner In Bulgaria
Omar Nayef Zayed signed his death warrant in an Israeli courtroom in 1986. That’s when he and two young Palestinian accomplices pleaded guilty to the murder of Eliyahu Amedi. During a period when Israeli Orthodox schools, known as yeshivot in Hebrew, were moving into East Jerusalem’s Muslim Quarter and provoking violence against Palestinian residents, Zayed plotted an attack against them in retaliation. He organized a cell which traveled from their home in the West Bank village of Jenin, to the city. When they came upon Amedi, a yeshivot student, they stabbed him multiple times and killed him. They were apprehended a few hours later near the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
Speaking for himself and his two young Palestinian accomplices at a trial lasting all of five minutes, Zayed said:
“We don’t regret, nor do I apologize for killing him [Amedi]. This was done in the context of the struggle for the liberation of Palestine.”
From that day forward, Israel’s intelligence agency, the Mossad, vowed to exact vengeance for the murder of Amedi. One agent, Yossi Cohen, took a particular interest in the case, and he waited 25 years for his revenge against Zayed.
That revenge came on the morning on Feb. 26, when Zayed’s blood-soaked body was found in the garden of the Palestinian embassy in Sofia, Bulgaria. http://www.mintpressnews.com/mossad-implicated-assasination-bulgaria/221236/

A Palestinian man was killed and three others were injured by Israeli forces during clashes on Friday east of al-Bureij refugee camp near the "buffer zone" in the central Gaza Strip, and near the Nahal Oz border crossing in eastern Gaza. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774028
More than 90 Palestinians killed by Israel this year(9-11)
Israeli occupation forces shot and critically wounded a Palestinian man in the northern West Bank village of Huwwara on Wednesday.
An army spokesperson claimed that the man, identified by the Palestine Red Crescent Society as 32-year-old Muhammad Amr from the city of Tulkarm, had attempted to stab a soldier, who “responded to the immediate threat with live fire.”
An eyewitness told the Ma’an News Agency that he saw Amr “attempting to cross the road in Huwwara before being shot at by an Israeli soldier who then took out a knife and threw it next to the youth.” https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/maureen-clare-murphy/more-90-palestinians-killed-israel-year

Israeli police detains 2 Jerusalem teens, charges 1 for 'social media incitement'(20-2)
Israel charged one Palestinian minor with “incitement” for posts on social media, Israeli police said on Sunday.
Israeli police spokesperson Luba al-Samri said in a statement that two young residents of occupied East Jerusalem had been detained for maintaining a Facebook page called “Bahaa Elayyan news,” named after a Palestinian who was killed by Israeli forces last year after carrying out a shooting and stabbing attack, for the past two weeks.
One of the two youths, who al-Samri said was 15 years old, was charged with incitement to violence and terrorism. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774056

Guten Morgen vom Twitter-Konto der israelischen Armee
Wie bezeichnet man ein Regime, das jede Nacht Menschen aus ihrem Bett reißt? Wie soll man Massenverhaftungen ohne Mandat bewerten?
Wie difiniert man brutale Hausdurchsuchungen mitten in der Nacht, von denen manche nur als Training gedacht sind?
Wie soll man solche nächtlichen Aktionen bezeichnen, die jede Nacht von der Armee, der Grenzpolizei, und dem israelischen Sicherheitsdienst, Shin Beth, ausgeführt werden?
Wie soll man einen Staat nennen, in dessen Namen sie handeln - eine Demokratie, die einzige im Nahen Osten? Erinnert sich jemand an die finsteren Zeiten lateinamerikanischer Militärjunten, oder wird jemand wegen der Türkei besorgt? Willkommen im israelischen Besatzungsgebiet Westjordanland, Nacht für Nacht, wenige Autominuten von Ihrem Zuhause!
Jeden Morgen berichtet die IDF (Tsahal) stolz über Twitter die Untaten der vergangenen Nacht: "Im Laufe der Nacht haben unsere Kräfte Männer verhaftet, die wegen terroristischer volkstümlicher (!) Aktivitäten und gewalttätiger Ausschreitungen verdächtigt werden. Sie wurden den Sicherheitskräften zwecks Verhörs übergeben". http://www.tlaxcala-int.org/article.asp?reference=19286

Amona: in service of the Judaization of Jerusalem
Israeli municipal authorities in Jerusalem on Wednesday demanded that Israel's High Court retract an order to delay the demolition of over a dozen Palestinian homes in East Jerusalem, and thus usher in a new policy of “immediate dismantlement.”
The impetus for the declaration was the High Court’s rejection of a different request filed by the Israeli government. Last week, the Court refused a government petition to delay the demolition of Amona, an illegal Jewish outpost northeast of the West Bank city of Ramallah, for seven months.
Following the rejection, Israeli Jerusalem mayor Nir Barakat claimed that if Amona is demolished as planned, then “[the city’s] hands will be tied” in regards to Palestinian homes built on land that may have been owned by Jews prior to 1948 in East Jerusalem.
"Unless Amona is legalized, we'll have to destroy hundreds or thousands of houses in Jerusalem too," Barkat clarified. http://alternativenews.org/index.php/features-02/263-amona-in-service-of-the-judaization-of-jerusalem
Israeli Supreme Court rejects Palestinian village's appeal over confiscated land(17-11)
The Israeli Supreme Court rejected an appeal filed by residents of the occupied West Bank village of al-Nabi Elyas over Israel’s confiscation of 100 dunams of Palestinian land, Israeli radio reported on Thursday.
According to the Arabic-language Voice of Israel station, the court ruled on Wednesday that residents of al-Nabi Elyas in the district of Qalqiliya could not prove ownership of land which had been seized to build a road.
The court claimed that the road, whose construction is expected to begin in January, would benefit both Palestinians and Israeli settlers in the area. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774007

Knesset advances bill to legalize vigilante confiscation of Palestinian land
The so-called formalization bill, which would retroactively legalize illegal settlements built on privately owned Palestinian land, passed its first reading on Wednesday afternoon, Haaretz reports.
In essence, the bill rewards Israelis who settle on Palestinian land in the occupied territories by giving them the rights to it. The Palestinian victims of land confiscation are meant to stay quiet and hope for cash from the state.
Members of Knesset (MK) voted on three versions of the bill, all of which included provisions to retroactively legalize settlements. The first version of the bill passed the reading by 58 votes to 50; the second by 57-52 and the third by 58-51. The bill, in whichever version survives, must pass two additional readings in the Knesset before becoming law. http://alternativenews.org/index.php/headlines/262-knesset-advances-bill-to-legalize-vigilante-confiscation-of-palestinian-land
Pro-settler group returns to court to evict 9 Palestinian families in Jerusalem
Ateret Cohanim, a pro-settler Israeli organization, has asked Israeli courts to begin the evictions of nine Palestinian families in the neighborhood of Silwan in occupied East Jerusalem, according to Israeli media.
Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that the total number of Palestinian families the settler group has attempted to evict has risen to 72, all of whom live in the Batan al-Hawa area of Silwan.
Ateret Cohanim is an Israeli pro-settlement nonprofit organization -- receiving tax-deductible donations from the United States through their financial intermediary American Friends of Ateret Cohanim -- which focuses on “Judaizing” East Jerusalem through a Jewish reclamation project working to expand illegal settlements and facilitate Jewish takeover of Palestinian properties across the Green Line into Palestinian territory. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=773999

Palestinian child prisoner Shadi Farrah, 13, to face sentencing on 29 November
Palestinian child prisoner Shadi Farrah, 13, one of the youngest children imprisoned by the Israeli state, will face a sentencing hearing on 29 November, at which Israeli prosecutors’ recommended two-year sentence in addition to the year he has spent imprisoned will be approved by the judge in the case.
Shadi and his friend Ahmad al-Zaatari were seized by Israeli occupation soldiers on 29 December in their village of Kufr Aqab as they walked through the village. They were seized and interrogated for days and accused of possession of a knife with the intended purpose of carrying out a resistance action against Israeli soldiers. The alleged knife was never used or pulled out by either boy; they are accused of having the knife inside their bag. Even this allegation is denied by Shadi’s family. http://samidoun.net/2016/11/palestinian-child-prisoner-shadi-farrah-13-to-face-sentencing-on-29-november/
Palestinian political leader on hunger strike
A Palestinian political leader long targeted by Israel is on hunger strike in protest of his solitary confinement and alleged mistreatment by Israeli prison authorities, his lawyer announced on Sunday.
Sheikh Raed Salah, leader of the Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement, a political party in Israel, refused all meals on Monday.
Guards raided his prison cell and removed food and electrical devices, including his television set and radio. Also confiscated were his writings, which Salah has said are part of a book he is working on.
In late October 2015, Salah was convicted of “inciting violence and terrorism” in a sermon he delivered in a mosque in occupied East Jerusalem in 2007. Salah allegedly called on Muslims to protect Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa mosque from infiltrating Jewish settlers and members of Israel’s parliament, the Knesset. https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/charlotte-silver/palestinian-political-leader-hunger-strike

ICRC expresses worry over deteriorating health of hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners(20-11)
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) expressed worry on Friday over the deteriorating health of two Palestinian hunger strikers, both of whom have now been on strike for more than 50 days in protest of being sentenced without charge or trial in Israeli prison.
An ICRC doctor who has regularly visited Anas Shadid, 20, and Ahmad Abu Farah, 29, who have been on hunger strike for 55 and 56 days respectively, called on the hunger strikers, their representatives, and authorities to “find a solution before the detainees lose their lives or develop irreversible damages to their health.” http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774023
Israeli authorities transfer 14-year-old Ahmad Manasra to Megiddo prison
The Israel Prison Service (IPS) recently transferred 14-year-old Palestinian prisoner Ahmad Manasra to Israel’s Meggido prison, Manasra’s family told Ma’an on Saturday.
Manasra was sentenced to 12 years in Israeli prison earlier this month after he was charged with attempted murder for carrying out a stabbing attack on Oct. 12, 2015 that left two Israelis seriously injured. In addition, the court imposed a fine on his family of 180,000 shekels ($47,187).
Manasra’s family told Ma’an that IPS officials transferred the young prisoner from Israel’s Yarka closed institution -- where he has been held since October of last year -- to Israel’s Megiddo prison following his sentencing on Nov. 7. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774032
Palestinian freed to Mauritania after serving 20 years in US, 9 in Greek prison
A Palestinian man was released from custody in the United States on Friday after he served 20 years, in addition to nine years he served in Greece, on “charges of resisting the Israeli occupation outside Palestinian soil,” the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS) said.
PPS said in a statement, released Saturday, that 76-year-old Rashid Hammad Zghari from al-Duheisha refugee camp in the southern occupied West Bank district of Bethlehem , was released from US custody after serving 20 years.
The statement added that Zghari, who is married with two children, had been jailed for nine years in Greece before he was moved to US prison. He was arrested in Greece in 1987.
Zghari was deported to Mauritania immediately after he was released. http://www.maannews.com/Content.aspx?id=774041
Ex-ambassador: Israel used my father to cover up ethnic cleansing
A former Dutch ambassador was due to plant 1,100 olive trees in the West Bank on Sunday to make amends, he said, for the fact that Israel had exploited his family’s name to “cover up an act of ethnic cleansing”.
Erik Ader, a former ambassador to Norway, said the trees were his way of apologising for a similar number of pine trees planted in Israel in the 1960s to honour his father.
The Rev Bastiaan Jan Ader, who was executed by the Nazis in 1944, was named a “Righteous among the Nations” in 1967 by Israel’s Yad Vashem Holocaust museum. He had helped hundreds of Dutch Jews escape the extermination camps.
Ader said he had been shocked to discover a decade ago that under the small conifer forest dedicated to his father were concealed the ruins of a Palestinian village.
All of the 2,400 Palestinian inhabitants of Bayt Nattif, south-west of Jerusalem, were expelled in 1948, the year Israel was established. The Israeli army destroyed the 350 homes there; none of the villagers has ever been allowed to return. http://www.jonathan-cook.net/2016-11-20/ex-ambassador-israel-used-my-father-to-cover-up-ethnic-cleansing/
The dark side of Jewish consciousness: manufactured anti-Semitism
I dedicate this essay to Hajo Meyer (1924-2014) anti-Zionist, political activist, Auschwitz survivor and hero in the struggle for Palestinian freedom. His words continue to inform me and his actions comfort my sorrow.
“An anti-Semite used to be a person who disliked Jews. I am not anti-Jew. I am anti-Zionist” “Zionism has nothing to do with Judaism. “
Zionism has always equated any criticism with anti-Semitism, delegitimization or worse. It serves as propaganda to maintain the illusion of Jews as “victims.” Ultra Nationalists who believe in their moral superiority create political terror in order to silence and deny. http://mondoweiss.net/2016/10/consciousness-manufactured-semitism/
How Israel Became a Hub for Surveillance Technology
In 1948, the year Israel was founded, the Mer Group was established as a metal workshop.
Today it’s a much different company. It operates a dozen subsidiaries and employs 1,200 people in over 40 countries, selling wireless infrastructure, software for public transit ticketing systems, wastewater treatment, and more. But at the ISDEF Expo, an event held last June to show off Israeli technology to potential buyers from foreign security forces, the Mer Group’s representatives were only promoting one thing: surveillance products sold by the company’s security division. https://theintercept.com/2016/10/17/how-israel-became-a-hub-for-surveillance-technology/

Israel’s new attack on Palestinian culture
A bill being put forward to Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, will, if passed, ban mosques from using loudspeakers to broadcast the call to prayer five times a day.
The bill has government backing and support from a significant number of legislators. And though it is currently being appealed, it is likely to pass should the vote take place.
The backers of the bill, which was originally intended to stop the broadcasting of nationalist messages, now claim that the goal is to curb “noise pollution.”
Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, has stated that “Israel is committed to freedom for all religions,” and the proposed ban serves to “protect [Israel’s] citizens from noise.” https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/jalal-abukhater/israels-new-attack-palestinian-culture
Divide and rule: How the school system sows division among Israel's Palestinians
The education system in Israel is one of the many areas where Arab Palestinian and Jewish citizens of Israel are segregated from each other as the schools are strictly divided into different sectors, based on both religion and ethnicity.
The system in its current form was established in 1953 with the State Education Law which provides the legal framework for the establishment of two sectors: a Jewish secular and a Jewish religious one. While the Palestinian minority is not mentioned in this law, the establishment of an Arab school sector that is separate from the two Jewish ones followed rather inevitably from it. http://www.middleeasteye.net/essays/divide-and-rule-how-school-system-sows-division-among-palestinian-citizens-israel-1534031059
Why Palestinians are unfazed by calls to cut off US aid
Mustafa Barghouti, an elected Palestinian legislator, told Al-Monitor that the United States has already reduced aid to the Palestinian government. “In the past two years, we have seen a steady decline in financial support coming from Washington to the Palestinian government. Some of the remaining aid coming from the United States is going directly to local governments, and the rest is distributed to civil society organizations by USAID [US Agency for International Development].” http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/originals/2016/11/us-aid-reduce-palestinian-government.html
Richard Falk: 'History is on the side of the Palestinians'
“Apartheid, annexation, mass displacement and collective punishment have become core policies of the state of Israel.” Such a clear and uncompromising statement may be unusual for a high-flying academic and former top UN official, but it is typical of Richard Falk.
With his tall, spare frame, neatly trimmed white beard and quiet, scholarly demeanour, Falk appears the epitome of a retired professor. He is indeed an Emeritus Professor of International Law at Princeton University, but "retired’ is not a word in his vocabulary, even at the age of 85.
His pages-long bibliography on issues as diverse and complex as racism, the Iraq war and climate change bears witness to his intellectual energy and the breadth of his political commitment. Still travelling the world speaking on a wide range of topics, his latest book Palestine Horizon: Toward a Just Peace will be published in a few months’ time. http://www.middleeasteye.net/in-depth/features/richard-falk-thirst-justice-Gaza-Palestine-Israel-Occupation-UN-2110362291
Pappé on apartheid, ideology, Chomsky, and the contradictions of “liberal Zionism”
Khalil Bendib (KB): Welcome. For Status Hour, this is Khalil Bendib. Renowned Israeli historian, Ilan Pappé, is the author of numerous books on the history of Zionism, including his seminal work, “The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine: A History of Modern Palestine and the Israel-Palestine Question.” In his new book on Palestine co-authored with Noam Chomsky, Ilan Pappé debates issues spanning from the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement to the one-state solution. I spoke with Professor Pappé about this new work.
Ilan, your most recent book, co-authored with Noam Chomsky, entitled, “On Palestine,” offers a nice contrast between the old and the new left perspectives on the question of Palestine, between two generations of thinking on this question. One of the most marked contrasts is the fundamental question of the so-called two-state solution, which much of the liberal left in this country—following in the footsteps of the revered éminence grise of the American left, Doctor Chomsky—essentially abandons the moral high ground of equal rights for all in the name of pragmatism. You speak of an old conversation versus a new conversation and talk of a paradigm shift. Tell us a little bit more about this. http://mondoweiss.net/2015/09/apartheid-ideology-contradictions/
