From Harvard University's FXB Center:The Institute of Community and Public Health (ICPH) at Birzeit University, the François-Xavier Bagnoud (FXB) Center for Health and Human Rights, and the World Health Organization in the occupied Palestinian territory have launched the Palestine Social Medicine course. This intensive course is part of the activities of the Palestine Program...

Russia's RT.com pushes one-state solution, insults Israel, US, Canada, Australia

RT.com, the Russian state-funded English-language media outlet, posted what is meant to be a humorous "rap news" piece that purports to give the truth about Israel. The show is created by two Australians. The number of lies and slanders in this 7 minute piece rival anything in Arab media. The piece shows a trigger-happy, kippa-wearing Netanyahu justifying Israel's existence based solely on Jewish suffering, wantonly killing a Hamas leader who...

How PCUSA twists history to justify their hate of Israel

I finally got a copy of "Zionism Unsettled," the Presbyterian Church USA's 80-page "study guide" to teach Presbyterians how awful Israel is that was in the news a month ago. Others have done a good job showing how bad it is - and it is very bad. For example: After describing how much pressure Jews are under to not say anything bad about Zionism, it goes on to quote a hundred...

Fatah publishes The Map That Lies

We've discussed, and taken apart, different versions of The Map That Lies, the ubiquitous and lying set of four maps that purport to show how Israel is taking "Palestinian" land. The official Fatah Facebook page has an even worse version that they tweeted this morning: Mahmoud Abbas is, of course, the leader of Fatah. Every nation has some founding myths. "Palestine"...

Vancouver transit ads show "the map that lies"

From The Province: Jewish groups in Vancouver say they are considering suing Trans-Link for accepting controversial political advertisements showing the "disappearance of Palestine due to Israeli occupation over the past 66 years." On Tuesday, a group called the Palestine Awareness Coalition announced the launch of 15 bus posters and a large mural in a central Vancouver...

From Fox News: Advertisements at train stations in suburban New York depicting shrinking Palestinian territory in Israel are riling some critics who say they are “deliberately misleading and inaccurate,” FoxNews.com has learned. The ads, which were purchased by The Committee for Peace in Israel and Palestine, show the “Palestinian Loss of Land” from 1946 to 2010. An accompanying...

The BDS theme song video!

This is very unintentionally hilarious: It is hard to say what my favorite part is. Is it where they thank the Marrickville Council within the song for voting to boycott Israel? Is it the part where one of them wants to emphasize that she is not against Israel's right to exist right after she sang that "Palestine" runs from the "desert to the sea?" Is it where they decide that the best illustration of the Jewish claim to the area is a...

The map that lies - and one that doesn't

Anti-Israel (and now other*) organizations are fond of showing the following graphic on their websites: This map is a lie. The first panel has the biggest lie: While I presume that the white sections are indeed the land that was privately owned by Jews, the land in green was not privately owned by Arabs. Only a tiny percentage of land in Palestine was privately...
