Terrorism is Israel's only excuse for everything.
Bomb a hospital - "Oh there were terrorists inside!"
Bomb a school: "Oh there were terrorists inside!"
Gun down civilians in an aid convoy: "Oh they were terrorists!"
They bulldoze houses and neighborhoods, shoot civilians and bomb schools and hospitals, and as soon as someone tries to fight back they say: "Oh everyone! Look, terrorists!"
israel is very dangerous for world.. they have nuckeer bombs and they belive that every body is their bondman.. and dont believe humanity and international HUMAN law..

I love how neutral this panel is. That's sarcasm for the dimwitted ones here. "Democracy Now" is pure liberal left-wing trash, even FOXNews puts a token liberal on every panel so there's at least an opposing point of view. What garbage.
no Israel is not going faschist israel is based on terrorism and ethenic cleansing and mass murder from day one. i love democracy now but this question is really lame. no more shit. its been 60 years of zionist lies lies and usa and euro covering and paying and rewarding the theft of PALESTINE.
I bet Amy's standards call the rebels in the Warshaw concentration camp fascists too.
To call Liberman's party fascist is a complete joke. His plan is not only to give the Palestinians a country but he proposes to give them the land on which Arab villages WEST of the green line together with the Arab brothers and sisters.
Only a complete Israel hater and in the closet Islamonazi can call that fascist.
good points! To call Israel "fascist" is ridiculous. Likud is a right-wing party but they are not "ultra-Nationalist." there are ultra-nationalist parties in Israel but they have negligible support. Its a different story in Gaza which has elected an openly fascist party, Hamas!
In general I am a fan of Amy Goodman but when it comes to the Israel-Gaza conflict, she needs to 'wake up and smell the coffee.'
Liberman is not a member of the Likud party but the Israel-Our-Home party. Neither one of them is Fascist as the definition requires the support of a dictator. Both of them support democracy.
More over, if we analyze stereotypes, Fascist parties either want to wage war and occupy more land or kill people based on race. Again, both these parties voted "yes" for living the Gaza strip, the Likud gave about 70% of Israel's land - Sinai, to Egypt for peace.
You are correct, of course, that neither of those parties are fascist, and that Israel's decision to leave Gaza would never have been made by a fascist government. In fact I've heard people argue against the withdrawal from Gaza, because it could be seen as an attempt at "appeasement" of the Arab Nationalists, similar to the appeasement of the Nazis by Neville Chamberlain- who had the same hope of exchanging "land for peace"
I agree completely. To dispute the genocidal motives behind the invasions of Israel (in 1948 and 1967) is absurd. At the very least it is a mark of a profound ignorance of history; at worst it represents a deliberate ignoring of the facts.
There are two Arab tactics employed since the 67' - one is to destroy Israel from the outside by several armed forces which is, by any standard, a Fascist way exemplified both by the Pan-Arab secular movement as well as the Jihadists.
The second tactic is the Fatah and the extreme left in Israel - the Salami plan devised by Arafat, ultimately to make the country implode from within by injecting it with "the right of return" and taking pieces of land at a time.
Pan-Arab Nationalism is like extreme Nationalism everywhere: racist, xenophobic and aggressive, all the tell-tale signs of fascism. I am frequently disturbed by the lack of concern about this, especially in leftist circles which are so often critical of Israel, but which seem to ignore completely the fascist trends in extreme, right wing Palestinian and Arab Nationalism.
To dispute the genocidal motives behind the invasions of Israel (in '48 and '67) is absurd. At the very least it is a mark of profound ignorance of history; at worst, it is a deliberate ignoring of the facts. Its impossible to accurately understand or interpret what's happening now, without taking into account the events which led to it (namely, Nationalist aggression and the denial of Israel's right to exist.)
To talk about peace with the Arabs without admitting that the 48' and 67' wars were failed genocide against the Jews is the mark of a fascist. Being a socialist is one thing and being a genocide supporter as some of the extreme leftists are, is quite another.
Israel is not just the home country for the Jews but also the only reservation (with some similarities to the Indian reservations in the U.S).
I hope Goodman will be prosecuted for what she is in a court of law.
Israel is fascist shit, they're stopping all the near countries from progressibng or being free, totlatarian stalinism IMO. all middle eastern countries needs to stop the goverment and majority who believes in the current goverment.
If fascism had a smell I would say that too many in Israel's political parties have a moral cold and can't smell how the odor of their fascism, because they are intoxicated with their nationalism. News flash- the Germans didn't think about non-Christian born Jews so much because they were focused on those who were Germanic. Palestinians have the same ancestries, but they are not Jews. Jewish nationalism is important, not human rights.
Amy I think you are a good person who means well. So let me help you out. Israel has been fascist for a long time. And many of the things wrong with US foreign policy are due to fascist in Israel. Oh Amy our foreign policy in the 80's in Central America... made by the NEOCONS....
- I should much rather see reasonable agreement with the Arabs on the basis of living together in peace than the creation of a Jewish State. Apart from practical considerations, my awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish State, with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power, no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain... -

Really?
The Palestinian population has increased ten fold in 61 years, despite being a hostile entity. The Jewish population in Europe was wiped out in less than 5 years.
In 1948, 160,000 Arabs stayed in Israel, now they are 1.5 million Arab-Israelis living in the freest nation in the region.
In Germany there were NEVER Jewish terrorist groups firing rockets, blowing up buses and shooting people in cars. Sane people know that there is no comparison between the Nazi regime & Israel
I think people in the occupied terroritories if not Israeli Arabs would disagree with you on that one! 4 million people are treated like slaves with no human or democratic rights whatsoever! And you call this the freest nation in the region?
Every crime committed by Ariel Sharon & Israel has been supported and paid for by the USA! And when the UN Security Council convenes to condemn Israel's genocide & crimes against humanity, the USA steps in to veto!
Maybe most Americans dont know this, but every Muslim in the world has it engraved in their heart as the most grotesque injustice & unfairness & unbalanced policy anywhere in the world: This unending & bottomless support the American government gives to Israel!
6 wars 4 million Palestinian Refugees 3 million Occupied 254 km of an Apartheid Wall 562 Humiliation-check-points 20K Political-prisoners 468,831 new settlers on an Occupied land Disappearance of Palestine Destruction of 350 Churches & Mosques World Leader in UN Violations: 69 Has Killed more innocent civilians per capita than any other country 50,000 Has Imprisoned more civilians per capita 250,000 Has rendered more civilians Handicapped per capita 50,000
I'm somewhat relieved that Livni won, although there really isn't any more than a hair's difference between the three candidates. If Lieberman somehow managed to win, then I would say that Israel has already gone fascist. He's proposed "loyalty tests," which could be used to revoke the citizenship of Israeli dissidents.
in the future they'll call us either fools, devils or cowards. hopefully we'll be deemed as ignorant fools rather than the apathetic devil-cowards we all are.
Israel is a marxist,zionist and terrorist state. It is a state run my the military and racism is acceptable. Jews are destroying America and Europe.
