From Washington to Cardiff the ‘red line’ speaks volumes

A symbolic red line, representing all those politicians in the United States and United Kingdom have failed to draw or allowed Israel to cross during the past 12 months, first appeared around the White House in Washington in June after US President Joe Biden had warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in March that he…

‘Bananatrauma’ poor substitute for harm of white phosphorous

Shortly after dawn this morning Hezbollah’s elite Yellow Peril Squadron, armed with sling shots and spud guns, launched a daring raid across the Lebanese border breaching Israel’s Iron Dome and dropping water bombs on the banana plantations and groves of citrus fruit along the outskirts of the northern kibbutz of Hanita in western Galilee. Containing…

You can’t trump a messiah in an election year, not even in the US

Apart from the early years when I’d not long been granted the right to vote, I’ve not really attended the election pantomime in the United Kingdom for the past 40 years having reached the conclusion long ago that politics is a rigged game across the globe. Generally speaking Labour or Conservative, Democrat or Republican the…

Lebanon suffers effects of future ‘game changer of the battlefield’

Soft and silver-white in colour, lithium belongs to the alkali group of metals and is the lightest and least dense at room temperature. Extremely reactive and flammable, it is not found naturally in its elemental form occurring instead in chemical compounds. For commercial lithium production the element has to be isolated through electrolysis from a…

Lebanon and beyond on the road to ‘greater Israel’

As a teenager in the 1970s I’ve little doubt Britain’s Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer was subjected to a similar diet of “shaggy-dog” stories as myself, courtesy of television icons such as Les Dawson, Ronnie Corbett and Max Bygraves, so it puzzles me profoundly that he clings to the nonsense scripted by Mossad’s dream weavers…

It’s fascism when standing up for humanity becomes extreme

Two poignant protests in Cardiff in the past few days in memory of the tens of thousands of innocent women and children slaughtered by Benjamin Netanyahu’s terrorist regime in Israel have been completely ignored by MediaWales newspapers, although Wales On Sunday did carry a report on Charlotte Church’s presence at the Palestine solidarity march in…

One little thing Wales could do that would have a huge impact

Having worked in journalism for more than half my life, days seem to come and go without the dates really registering with me… it applies to birthdays, even my own, Christmas and all sorts of other anniversaries that should have significance but don’t as I struggle to even remember what day it is let alone…

One person’s sacrifice futile in a world that condones genocide

As Israel’s campaign of genocide heads into its sixth month, I’ve heard many people take solace from the knowledge they are “standing on the right side of history” by speaking out about the atrocities and condemning the United Kingdom government’s complicity in the ethnic cleansing being carried out in Gaza by Benjamin Netanyahu’s terrorist regime.…

Only a fool would take Israeli propaganda at face value

I tried to watch Wednesday’s Westminster ceasefire debate over Israel’s campaign of genocide in Gaza but found it such pantomime that I wasn’t able to stomach much and still don’t really know whether the United Kingdom has called for a ceasefire in the Palestinian enclave or not. I’m aware the debate ended in uproar after…

Call for a ceasefire Starmer’s only hope of restoring credibility

Good or bad, for better or worse, one thing we can all be certain of is that life goes on. And right at this moment I’m thankful I have the good fortune that mine is centred in a country that is not under siege by the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) bombing hospitals, schools, universities and…
