The Palestinian industry of lies
The Muhammad al-Dura affair has been one of the cornerstones of a lengthy delegitimization campaign against Israel, whose sole purpose is to portray Israel as a nation that kills children and perpetrates genocide. Once this premise has been accepted, at least by some among the Western elite and the international media, acts of terror against Israel have been legitimized all the more forcefully.
CIF Watch: A blood libel is born: Fisking the Guardian’s original report about Mohammed Al Durah

South African MP: Pro-Palestinian ads misrepresent apartheid
On my recent trip to San Francisco, I was deeply disturbed to learn about the posters in The City accusing Israel of apartheid. As a black South African who lived under apartheid, this system was implemented in South Africa to subjugate people of color and deny them a variety of their rights. In my view, Israel cannot be compared to apartheid in South Africa. Those who make the accusation expose their ignorance of what apartheid really is.

Church of Scotland 'Revision' Report 'Old Wine in New Bottle'
The Church of Scotland's "revision" of its April report "The Inheritance Of Abraham? A Report On The 'Promised Land'," is insufficient and continues to rely on the anti-Israel group Sabeel, said Jerusalem-based research institute NGO Monitor.
"The revised report is the same tainted wine in a new bottle," said Yitzhak Santis, NGO Monitor's Chief Programs Officer. "Though some of the more hurtful language was removed from the main body of the report, much of its original offensive theology and ideology remains."
Berlin Anti-Semites Seek to Destroy Remembrance Project
Anti-Semites in Berlin have been intimidating community and local officials who are behind a project to preserve the memory of Holocaust victims who lived in the city.
The project entails the placing of the names residents on monuments on the sidewalks of streets where they lived before being deported by the Nazis to concentration camps. The project is several years old, and was undertaken with the full cooperation of the municipality and the Jewish community.
Z Street IRS case to be heard in court
Z Street, which is intended to counterbalance the left-wing group J Street, has claimed that IRS officials delayed approving its status because its views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict contradict those of the Obama administration.
Israeli Exports to Turkey Hit All-Time High
Although there is still plenty of tension in the relations between Israel and Turkey, Israeli exports to the country reached an all-time high in the first quarter of 2013.

Acquisition gives Mellanox ‘speedy’ tech for data centers
In a twist on the usual scenario, Israeli networking equipment manufacturer Mellanox will be opening a research and development facility in the United States.
