ABBAS' VILLAGE LEAGUE
By Arjan El Fassed, The Electronic Intifada, Sep 10, 2007

For as long Palestinians have resisted violent Israeli
policies against them, successive Israeli governments have
tried to undermine Palestinian unity and foment divisions.
A principal strategy has been to try to foster alternative
leaders willing abandon fundamental Palestinian demands
for justice and focus on an agenda with which Israel is
comfortable. EI cofounder Arjan El Fassed parallels the
Village Leagues established in the 1970s with the current
system of Palestinian "self-rule" that instead serves to
subcontract the occupation.

ARCHITECTS PROTEST BROWN'S JNF PATRONSHIP
By Susannah Tarbush, The Electronic Intifada, Sep 10, 2007

When Architects and Planners for Justice in Palestine
(APJP) sent a letter to the new British Prime Minister
Gordon Brown two weeks ago describing as "disturbing" his
decision to become a patron of the Jewish National Fund
(JNF), this was another example of the active campaigning
of this international pressure group. The letter says:
"Your becoming a patron of JNF-UK can be seen as a tacit
acceptance of an unacceptable status quo, and also places
you in the position of not being an unbiased mediator in
the peace process." Susannah Tarbush reports.

BOOK REVIEW: "THE ISRAEL LOBBY AND US FOREIGN POLICY"
By Michael F. Brown, Institute for Middle East Understanding, Sep 7, 2007

The Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy by professors John
J. Mearsheimer and Stephen M. Walt weighs in with 106
pages of endnotes. The controversial tome challenging the
might of the pro-Israel lobby is nonetheless accused of
"shoddy scholarship" -- much as when the authors' shorter
paper on the subject in 2006 unexpectedly burst the bubble
of a lobby unaccustomed to challenge and reprimand.
However, EI contributor Michael F. Brown finds that the
heavy-hitting academics did not suddenly lose their
intellectual acumen in penning this well-reasoned
criticism of the Israel lobby.
