Contributed by Abuzari. Since its pre-emptive war of 1967, Israel had maintained an aura of "invincibility" and "legitimacy". The first got bitterly crushed in the Summer of 2006 and later in the 2008-9 aggression on Gaza (where Israel failed to neutralize the resistance). As for legitimacy, for Israel it matters most of all in the US. Israel however paid a high price for its inhumane massacres in Lebanon and Gaza because it failed to achieve a clear and tangible victory in these military campaigns (the "birth pangs" of Condi Rice did not yield the desired outcomes which could have been used as justification for Israeli atrocities.) Especially during the Gaza massacre, Israel's image was severely damaged by graphic images and information that got disseminated over internet and through hundreds of protest gatherings in North America and Europe. Israel still had a tighter control on information flow in the corporate media. Due to all of these developments, the entity of Israel is in a deep crisis right now, struggling to survive with whatever means it can, and it may resort to unrealistic steps, including another military warfare. However, what's becoming clearer with every passing day is that it probably won't take too long before this racist entity is finally dismantled like the Apartheid South Africa.

On the first Friday prayers in Ramadan, the Muslim Holy Month, thousands of Palestinians flocked towards the Al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem to attend prayers.
But, as is often the case, many were not allowed inside to pray.
Israeli authorities have put restrictions on who can attend prayers at the holy site, but they say they are trying to accommodate as many worshippers as possible.
Special permits are available but just for women between the ages of 30 and 45 and men between 45 and 50.
Palestinian officials say that such restrictive measures do not respect the sanctity of the month.

Full George Galloway Speech at Trinity-St. Paul's United Church Toronto Canada - Oct
03 2010 - As you may all know by now that the Federal Court ruling has condemned the
efforts of Conservative Immigration Minister Jason Kenney and his Communications
Director, Alykhan Velshi, to deny British MP George Galloway entry to Canada. In a
judgment released Monday (Sept. 27), Justice Richard Mosley found that Kenney’s and
Velshi’s efforts to keep Mr. Galloway out of the country were motivated by
disagreement with Mr. Galloway’s politics, rather than by national security
concerns. So now George Galloway returned to Canada to deliver in person the message
he was forced to deliver by Internet connection in March 2009.
