Urgent appeal for Israeli peace group Gush Shalom (article) by Latuff 2:56am Thu Aug 8 '02 latuff@uninet.com.br In today's Israel, if you are Jew and fight occupation, you are a TRAITOR! Israeli peace group Gush Shalom needs our support NOW! print article Dear brothers and sisters-in-arts, Israeli peace group Gush Shalom is being targeted by Ariel Sharon and his gang. Since the movement sent letters to many military officers and Israeli media informing that was collecting evidence about war crimes commited by Israel Occupation Forces against Palestinian civilians, Gush Shalom activists has been victims of governmental incitement, including Justice Minister Shetreet refering to them as "traitors". Major Israeli paper Ha'aretz have joined this defamation campaign trying to move Israeli opinion against pacifists, who are among the few voices contrary to illegal and immoral occupation of Palestinian territories by Israel, a nation sinked in a nationalist hysteria. We can't leave those courageous activists alone. I beg you, decent and good sense people worldwide, to send both SUPPORT messages to Gush Shalom and PROTEST letters to Ha'aretz newspaper. Gush Shalom: webmaster@gush-shalom.org Ha'aretz editor: editor@haaretz.co.il Thank you very much! www.gush-shalom.org add your comments

Yes, but let's look into it... by Shabtai 4:36am Thu Aug 8 '02 print comment Latuff: I agree- Gush Shalom needs our support now. They have done nothing illegal (since when is keeping records illegal in a self proclaimed demacracy, such as ISrael), and the whole thing reminds of Salem in the 17th century. Witch hunt. However, before we attack Haaretz (which we will do in a minute), let's remember one thing- Haaretz gave the most favorable report of all. You should have read some of the other papers. Now, let's trash Haaretz. I am not suprised by the editorial. In today's paper there was an advertisment (which those who only read the online version didn't see) for Moledet Party- the group which prides itself with the phrase "transfer will bring peace". A few months back Haaretz printed an ad for "Oslo criminals to justice", which called for the arrest of Yosi Bailin, Shimon Peres, etc., for their part in Oslo. Not because Oslo was a plan that raped the Palestinians, but rather since it "gave them guns to kill us with". Since it gave them hope of a country of their own. Any paper willing to print such advertisment, obviously has no moral value. Hence, the criticizm of Gush Shalom, which is in essence a criticism of democracy, is just like an ad- making money, this time by keeping the readers. Trash the "bad guys" and you won't lose readers. Israel, instead of wasting time and money on frying Gush Shalom at the stake, should use those resources to actually look into Gush Shalom's claims, and jail the officers who are guilty- after, of course, since we do believe in democracy, a court trial. But Israel is all about frying the innocent and pampering the guilty. For more on that read: http://indymedia.org.il/imc/israel/webcast/34735.html In the meantime.... carry on Gush, we are behind you one all the way! And thanks for the artwork, Latuff. Peace in our days! add your comments

Latuff is cynical racist by emma goldman 3:47am Sun Aug 18 '02 print comment LATUFF IS A EXTREMELY CYNICAL ANTI-JEWISH RACIST. IF YOU HAVE SEEN ALL HIS CARTOONS YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN. FOR EXAMPLE ON ONE CARTOON HE MAKES A FUN FROM THE ADL, HE JUST LAUGHIN FROM THE WORD "ANTI-SEMITISM" .THOUGH THE ADL HAVE NOT MUCH TO DO WITH THE ISRAEL GOVERNMENT. .LATUFF MEAN WITH HIS CARTOON THAT ANTI-SEMITISM HAD NEVER EXIST, THIS IS JUST A JEWISH PHANTAZY. HE GLORYFY PALESTINIAN HOMICIDE BOMBERS, CALLED THEM "FREEDOM FIGHTERS", HE'S JUSTIFY HOMICIDE KILLING AND CALL THE PALESTINIAN KILLERS "BRAVE". ONLY ONE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIS ANTI-JEWISH CYNICAL PICTURES AND "DIE STURMER"-ZINE FROM NAZI-GERMANY - ON LATOOF CARTOONS THE JEWS HAVEN'T A TRADITIONAL BIG NOSE. I'M NOT SURPRIZE IF ISRAELI AUTHORITIES SHOULD BANNED ALL LATUFF'S PICTURES. IN MY COUNTRY (SWEDEN) THE SWEDISH AUTHORITIES SHOULD DO MUCH WORSE TO CARTOONIST WHO MAKE A FUN FROM SOME ETHNIC MINORITY'S KILLING. THIS IS ASTOUNDING HOW GUSH-SHALOM IDIOTS CAN BE FRIENDS WITH LATUFF. GUSH SHALOM ARE A REAL SELF-DESTRUCTIVE SUICIDERS. add your comments

Dear retards by ! 8:35am Sun Aug 18 '02 print comment Dear Shabtai, you are either completely ignorant or working for the enemy! Your assersion that activists need to seek approval from the criminals in power when bringing them to justice is ludicrous and unrealistic! gush shalom, with all do respect must pursue its accusations regardless if they are frowned upon by those who would be incriminated by their litigations! Gush shalom, must hire a lawyer ( an ousted contributer to this site) comes to mind when pursuing their case. They have plenty of media outlets that will welcome a dissenting voice from the jewish capital which is Israel! add your comments

gush-shalom get lot of money from Sweden by emma goldman 12:32am Tue Aug 20 '02 print comment to by- what "the jewish capital" you talkin about ? This is a tacist generalisation to connect the word "capital" with some ethnicity. Capital haven't any etnicity. Actually, Uri Avneri has get lot of money from SWEDISH taxpayers, as he took alternative Nobel-prize for his "PISS-activism" at 5-th of december last year in Stockholm. I'm living in Sweden and I was on the meeting with Uri Avneri in Stockholm. add your comments
