No more pressure cooker
What to do when
The bloodshed is over?
To continue the siege
Until an even
More terrible war?
Only a flourishing Gaza,
Part of sovereign Palestine,
Can provide us with
A quiet border. • More...
|
 |
|
|
New hope for the future
It is not enough
To reach a cease-fire
And keep intact
An intolerable situation -
The siege of Gaza
Must be lifted
And Inhabitants of Gaza
Must get free access
To the outside world
And a new hope... • More...

Another round
Those who refused
To accept Hamas
In a Palestinian government
Negotiating with Israel -
Get Hamas
In another
Futile and useless
Round of war. • More...

Infernal carousel
Attack and revenge,
Revenge and attack,
Kidnapping and killing,
Killing and kidnapping…

Definitely not
Everybody in whom
A human heart beats
Still hopes that
The three boys
Will come back
Alive and well.
Does this
Make the world
Forget that
Israel occupies
Millions of Palestinians
For 47 years? • More...
|
|
|
|
It does not
Does the arrest
Of the Speaker
Of the Palestinian Legislature
Help in locating
The abducted boys?
Netanyahu, too, knows
It does not. • More...

Force feeding
The force feeding
Of hunger strikers
Contrary to
Medical ethics
Will not diminish
Their struggle.
Worldwide protest
Against detention without trial
Will only become louder. • More...

47 years old
The occupation is
47 years old.
Forty seven years of
Hatred and bloodshed,
Enormous waste of resources,
Corruption of our society.

Free itself
Of the occupation! • More...

Palestinian Unity - good for us, too
Gush Shalom
Congratulates the Palestinian People
On the end of the split

A day later
The Pope made
A call for peace,
Striking a chord
Also with
Non-Christians
A day later:
“Jerusalem Day”
Netanyahu crying
“Forever ours!” • More...

Occupation for ever
Maccabi Tel Aviv
Won a European Cup
And the crowds
Went wild
In the streets.
But with no peace in sight
And occupation for ever -
How long will
The gates of Europe
Remain open to us? • More...

Legislation barrage
A panicking Netanyahu
Starts a legislation barrage:
Blocking prisoner release -
In case peace

And abolishing

Is shaking. • More...

A death trap
The talks have

The occupation
Goes on,

Turned into
A death trap. • More...

Is something very different. • More...
