Blaming Israel alone for Gaza mental health problems is just another kind of Jew-hatred. Here's why.

The Israeli Gisha NGO concentrates on freedom of movement of people and goods between Israel and the territories, and it issues reports and statistics to that end.It just released a graphics-heavy online report about the impact of Israel's closure of Gaza on the mental health of Gazans:In Their Words: Mental Health Professionals in Gaza on Treating the Effects of Closure“There’s...

Opposition to Ramon Airport plan proves the hypocrisy of "pro-Palestinian" groups

Here's yet another way to know that the biggest self-described supporters of Palestinians really don't give a damn about them.As we've been reporting, Israel is setting up a plan for Palestinians to be able to travel through Ramon Airport in the southern Negev. This will make it easier for most Palestinians to travel internationally. Assuming that the passengers...

Gisha NGO: Even when Egypt blockades Gaza, it is Israel's responsibility

It's always Israel's fault.For the third straight day, Egypt has closed the Rafah crossing, stranding thousands of people on both sides who want to cross the border. Egypt also closed the Salah a-Din Gate from where some truckloads of goods are sent.Egypt's sudden closure is largely assumed to be an expression of anger over Hamas organizing violent protests at a time...

Amnesty and other NGOs actually want Palestinians to die - as long as Israel will be blamed. (And they consider Palestinians to be too stupid to make their own decisions.)

A couple of weeks ago, a series of NGOs including the Amnesty, Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, B'Tselem and even two Palestinian human rights organizations issued a press release demanding that Israel provide vaccines for Palestinians. They use poor arguments, most of which I debunked in last night's webcast, but one of them deserves more attention - because...

Gisha, an Israeli NGO ostensibly concerned with freedom of movement for Palestinians, proves again that its only purpose is to come up with new excuses to slander Israel, truth be damned.This month it released a report that claims that Israel is discriminating against women in its policy on allowing Gazans to travel. Every single example of this supposed discrimination is...

Israel has been expediting allowances of "dual use" items into Gaza for weeks - and no one reports it

Reporters and anti-Israel activists, trying to prove that Israel is not allowing needed medical aid into Gaza, have been referencing the list of "dual use" items that Israel's COGAT publishes. They misrepresent the list as a list of items banned from Gaza. But that was never true: it is a list of items that require special permission to enter Gaza (and, for many...

Unreported news: Israel reduced time for West Bank merchandise imports by 67%; lifts ban on tires into Gaza

When Israel makes life easier for Palestinians, it rarely makes the news. COGAT announced last week when describing a tour of Qalandiya crossing to a group of international visitors: The Civil Administration has advanced its “Door To Door” project throughout the West Bank this past year. Thanks to this unique project, Palestinian trucks can carry merchandise into Israel...
