Subservience to Zionism’s fanatical desire to suppress freedom of speech lies behind CNN’s decision to sack one of its most popular commentators. On 28 November, Marc Lamont Hill addressed the United Nations in support of justice for the Palestinian people. On the following day, the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, CNN announced “Marc Lamont Hill is no longer under contract with CNN”.
We asked Mr Peters for a clear and reasonably prompt response to our questions concerning the alarming tenor of Bolton’s speech and present US policy regarding US relations with the ICC.

Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu has described the Palestinian founders of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) as “classical antisemites in modern garb”.

Some Zionists assert that there is no such thing as Palestine, going so far as to deny its culture and history.
