Opinion/Editorial
AMERICA DEAF TO PALESTINIAN SCREAMS
Fareed Taamallah, The Electronic Intifada, 19 June 2006

The screaming of 11 year old Palestinian Huda Abu
Ghalia from Gaza seems not to have reached American
officials. Huda's parents and five siblings were killed
before her eyes last week when Israeli artillery
crashed onto the beach as they picnicked. The US was
the only major power which not only refused to condemn
the incident, but described it as "self defense."
Afterwards, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called
Israel's army the "most moral" in the world.
Palestinian Central Election Commission Salfit
coordinator, Fareed Taamallah, comments.

Israel Lobby Watch
FORMER DUTCH AMBASSADOR CALLS FOR SANCTIONS IF
ISRAEL REFUSES TO COMPLY WITH INTERNATIONAL LAW
Adri Nieuwhof, The Electronic Intifada, 19 June 2006

Some weeks ago I heard Jan Wijenberg, a retired Dutch
Ambassador, speak about what the International
Community could do to break with its complicity to the
ongoing violations of international law and human
rights by the Israeli regime. Wijenberg served over a
decade as an ambassador for the Dutch government in
Jemen, Tanzania and Saudi Arabia. He regularly writes
to Dutch ministers and politicians to remind them of
the responsibility of the Dutch government and the EU
to hold Israel accountable to international law. His
views are expressed in this article.

Development
THE (ANTI-) PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY
Joseph Massad, The Electronic Intifada, 18 June 2006

One of the most important measures that the Israeli and
Palestinian architects of the Oslo agreement took in
order to guarantee the structural survival of what came
to be known as the Oslo "peace process" was the
creation of structures, institutions, and classes, that
would be directly connected to it, and that can survive
the very collapse of the Oslo agreement itself while
preserving the "process" that the agreement generated.
This guarantee was enshrined in law and upheld by
international funding predicated on the continuation of
the "Oslo process"...
