Middle east - In pictures: Thousands stage peaceful pro-Palestinian rally in Paris
In France, the hatred against Jews keeps growing, Jews are attacked, the synagogues threatened, and there are too many massive demonstrations that go far beyond mere protest to expressed hatred of Jews and violence. How is it that the seeming majority of french favor an internationally recognized terrorist organization, Hamas and now equate Israel and the Jews with Hitler and the Third Rech? Much can be attributed to the increased Muslim population in France who now don't even bother to conceal their hatred of Jews. BUT, ...the French! ...the French themselves have now revealed for all the world to see their deep rooted anti-semitism which may well encourage and result in much of the Jewish diaspora fleeing to Israel, one state in the world that will welcome them. And, what will France be left with? An increasing radical Muslim mob that will in turn threaten the very fabric and character of France. In the end, they themselves will likely fall prey to France' far right and expulsion or continued political, religious and civil strife not seen since WWII. France,..you will reap what you yourselves have sown.

The interview - Exclusive: Israel's US ambassador speaks to FRANCE 24
@Pierre2008 I can only agree! it's absurd how can humanity be that perverse and biased when it comes to facts and take responsibility for its mistake... sometimes with all these pro-israeli medias I wonder if I were the only one thinking that Israel is exterminating these Palestinians?

France - Suspected French-Moroccan 'jihadist' detained at Charles de Gaulle airport
Lucky break for you! However, you can bet the ranch there will be many more who immigrated to France and England but were enticed by jihadists to fight in Syria and Iraq; and, sooner or later these "chickens will be returning home to roost."

Middle east - Hamas denies capturing Israeli soldier as Egypt seeks new truce talks
"It was like an action movie -- explosions everywhere, cars flying up in flames, people crushed under houses that were bombed. It was a miracle I escaped the area. It's another miracle I didn't die of fear." -- Bassim Abed, on Israel's retaliatory bombardment of Rafah. In the meantime Congress was busy replenishing Israel's arsenal with another $225,000,000 worth of munitions for "defense." All is well that is deemed well by those that count.

The interview - Exclusive: Israel's US ambassador speaks to FRANCE 24
Is this an objective interview made by a respectful journalist? I don't think so!! Where are the questions that should reveal the truth ? Do you think that you are talking in private by telling the guy "no need to say you know all these details"! he knows very well but your western audience do not know what his army is doing to innocent people! your interview doesn't worth a penny! you should quit ! letting him talking like he was right for living in a country which is not his, for killing people claiming and defending their land ... Palestine. Israel is just another version of the western occupation in the Middle-East... Soon or later it will vanish, according to history ... see crusades.

Middle east - Hamas denies capturing Israeli soldier as Egypt seeks new truce talks
Hamas has broken every ceasefire and continually lies about what it does even when there are eyewitness reporters for example seeing Hamas rockets hit the Shifa hospital and terrorsits rusging to the scene to clean up the evidence. Of course Netanyahu is not going to agree to another ceasefire anytime soon. If I were he, I would take over Gaza and destroy any terrorists who resist. Hamas can NEVER be trusted and should be destroyed.

Middle east - Kerry, Ban announce 72-hour humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza
An Italian journalist who until Tuesday was embedded in Gaza has backed the IDF’s account of a rocket strike on a school playground in central Gaza’s Shati refugee camp on Monday. At least 10 people were killed in the attack – most of them children – and some sources claimed the death toll was as high as 30. Palestinian sources were quick to blame Israel, claiming that an Israeli fighter jet fired missiles directly at the playground and nearby hospital. Israel denied the accusations, saying that Hamas rockets aimed at Israel from the area misfired, and struck both the school and the hospital. Returning from his stint in Gaza, and safe from what he ominously referred to as potential “Hamas retaliation”, Italian journalist Gabriele Barbati on Tuesday afternoon broke the media silence by tweeting the following message, confirming that Hamas terrorists rushed to cover up evidence of what was indeed errant rocket fire aimed at Israel: Out of #Gaza far from #Hamas retaliation: misfired rocket killed children yday in Shati. Witness: militants rushed and cleared debris His claims raise some uncomfortable questions about the objectivity of reports coming from Gaza
