FORGET ABOUT THE STATE OF PALESTINE – TRUMP, NETANYAHU, HOLD THE CARDS
This week’s sudden bombardment of Gaza by the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) on the instruction of the Jewish State’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu leaves too much to be desired.

GAZA’S DEMISE IS NOT ON ISRAEL’S BRUTALITY, IT IS ON THE WATCH OF THE US, PERIOD!
The US has correctly gained international reputation as a dishonest peace broker. There is no need to look beyond Gaza, the epicentre of the failure of global diplomacy.

ROGUE STATE ISRAEL DETERMINED TO PULL DOWN THE US IN ITS INTERNATIONAL DECLINE
Israeli’s daring bombardment of Qatar this week revealed more than meets the eye.
