781 Petition: Take away Shimon Peres's Nobel Peace Prize -- rank: 1000

This was published onto our site. Thought it might interest: Shimon Peres is one of the most cynical and immoral politicians of our times, a true Machiavelli disciple , who plays such a key role in enabling the current catastrophy to happen. As a Nobel Prize Laureate - with all his international connections and special status in Europe, Shimon Peres secured all along a European Umbrella for the Sharon Government. Thus he made it possible for this criminal government to go as far as this. It is ...

785 Indymedia Israel is being attacked by right-wing hackers -- rank: 1000

Dear all, Ever since an official complaint to the Israeli Police was filed against IMC-Israel, accusing us of incitement againt Sharon (March 24), we have been under a concerted attack by right-wing hackers who are publishing numerous comments with code which either sends someone to a pornographic website, changes text, locks up their computer, etc. Our techies have been trying to find ways to disallow publication of such code, but it has not worked in any complete manner of yet. If there is any ...

786 Question for anyone in the ME -- rank: 1000

I heard him say that he would be happy to go out as a martyr if the Israelis killed him, but I didn't hear any "like in Netanya". One can never really know how much pre-knowledge he has of any specific bombing (my guess is not that often when it is Hamas or Islamic Jihad....and who knows when it is Tanzin or something). The logical presumption is that Arafat's ability (and perhaps willingness) to prevent suicide bombings and such has much to do with the specific Israeli/Palestinian pol ...

790 "The Time To Act Is Now" By Sam Bahour and Michael Dahan -- rank: 1000

The Time To Act Is Now By Sam Bahour and Michael Dahan* It is impossible for the human mind to fully comprehend the tragedy resulting from the attacks in New York City and Washington D.C. It is doubtful whether there are any words in the collective human lexicon to describe horror of this magnitude. Our thoughts and prayers join those of millions of people around the world, which are directed to the victims and their families. Yet there are those that are more than willing to make cynical use of ...

792 on the whole CNN Palestinian Videotape hoopla -- rank: 1000

I just wanted to say that it really surprised me when I read the section in Counterpunch about the article on our site. We at Indymedia Israel were cautious not to put the article in the feature section specifically because there is no evidence of the accusations given by Carvalho...no e-mail, no name of his professor that we could contact. We have a democratic publishing system and it is up to the reader to be conscious of the danger of accepting an article at face value (much in the same way ...

About a week ago, I asked Sergiey Sandler, from New Profile (Israeli Conscientious Objector Organization) to write an article summerizing the C.O. situation in Israel right now, so that I could use it for a feature on the IMC-Central site. Anyway, he sent it to me today and I thought it would be interesting for you people also.

>From what I remember yesterday (watching it live from Israel here on the BBC TV and CNN), it wasn't much more than 30-45 minutes from the second plane to hit, than the first of the towers collapsed. And not much longer after that the other tower collapsed. If the elevators weren't working, then that is a hell of a lot of people in the stairwells. Maybe my remembering of the times is a bit off, but it was not 3 hours. Bryan Atinsky IMC-Israel English Editorial Coordinator ----- Original Mess ...
