"Rogue racist States cannot be tolerated" (Prof. Ilan Pappe)
"It's a living organism that has a very nasty, evil side to its ideology, but it ends there, it begins there and it ends there and we shouldn't, again, exaggerate our analysis of Zionism beyond the fact that from a Palestine perspective, it is a destructive ideology, it's bad enough, it has nothing else to it and nothing else should be added to this."
"They (EU politicians) don't want to talk about Zionism as colonialism, as racism, they don't want to talk about genocidal policies, ethnic cleansing policies, crimes against humanity, war crimes"
"It is the only prison in the world that children are being born in it that have no chance of getting out of it"
![Click on image to see full-sized version Prof. Ilan Pappe](../cache/imagecache/local/attachments/feb2009/460_0___30_0_0_0_0_0_ilanpapped.jpg) Prof. Ilan Pappe Last Wednesday, Feb 11th, in a Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign organised talk in Trinity College Dublin, professional historian and human rights’activist, Ilan Pappe in a packed lecture theatre, savaged Zionism, its EU aiders and abbetors and the corrupt section of academia that provides Zionism with spurious credibility, that weaves the intellectual clothes of a destructive ideology that's threadbare, primitive, racist, colonialist and genocidal. it was a tour de force of conscience and outrage that had me levitating, albeit in a coach, all the way back to Galway that night, all the more sadly so, when contrasted with Archbishop Desmond Tutu's bullshit, pro forma speech in Galway University last night.
Pappe, the Israeli "son of German-Jewish emigrants found himself in the eye of a storm that would lead him to leave the country of his birth and seek sanctuary in the English west country. He has been chair in the history department at Exeter University for the last 18 months. By the time he left the University of Haifa, he had been condemned in the Israeli parliament, the Knesset; the minister of education had publicly called for him to be sacked; and his pictures had appeared in the country's biggest-selling newspaper at the centre of a target. Next to it, a popular columnist addressed his readers thus: "I'm not telling you to kill this person, but I shouldn't be surprised if someone did." http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/jan/20/intervi...orian
His; The Bureaucracy of Evil: The History of the Israeli Occupation is about to be published of which Oneworld Publications says: Following his critically acclaimed investigation of the ethnic cleansing of Palestine in the 1940’s, renowned Israeli historian Ilan Pappe turns his attention to the annexation and occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, to bring us the first comprehensive critique of the Occupied Territories. Based on groundbreaking archival research, NGO records and eyewitness accounts, Pappe’s investigation of the ‘bureaucracy of evil’ explores the brutalizing effects of occupation, from the systematic abuse of human and civic rights, the IDF roadblocks, mass arrests, and house searches, to the forced population transfer, the settlers, and the infamous wall that is rapidly turning the West Bank into an open prison. Providing a sharp contrast with life in Israel, this is a brilliantly incisive and moving portrait of daily life in the Occupied Territories http://www.oneworld-publications.com/cgi-bin/cart2/comm...d=364
Ilan Pappe is Chair of History at Exeter University. He is Chair of the Emil Touma Institute for Palestinian Studies, and is also the author of the bestselling The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine (Oneworld), A History of Modern Palestine (Cambridge), and The Israel/Palestine Question (Routledge).
For the fourth Saturday in a row, activists with the Free Palestine Campaign manned a Boycott Israeli Goods information stall in Shop Street for eight hours whilst another section did a flying picket of five establishments selling Israeli goods and foodstuffs, Woodies DIY, Tesco, Marks and Spencer, Debenham's and Dunnes stores, down from the nine we picketed on our first picket due to the delay caused by the malevolent calling of the Guards by the manager of Woodie's: last Saturday, we "were blocking the entrance," the previous Saturday, the police were called through our "aggressive and abusive behaviour to the customers" and before that they were called as we were on "private property," next Saturday's vindictive "reason" is anyone's guess.?
