Carrie Fisher's face

Quality graphic design for Carrie Fisher's book cover. Apart from the clever typography I really like the colour AND best of all the daring crop of the face.

The Myth of the U.N. Creation of Israel: Jeremy R. Hammond

FPJ article examining the UN's deliberations on the idea of partition of Palestine in 1947 which were seized upon as a justification for Israel to illegally seize land and declare itself a state, an act immediately supported by the US. As the unjust 'settlement' imposed on Germany after WWI laid the seeds for WWII, similar treatment of Palestine made inevitable the ongoing conflict between the West and the Arab world.

Palestine and the UN vote

Long ago President Obama promised much to the Arab world and at the time some even believed he could deliver, but it turned out to be business as usual. Today was his parting gift; not veto-ing a UN resolution critical of Israel's settlements on Palestinian land. He's about to leave office and the Democrats no longer hold any of the levers of power so the impact will be minimal beyond the short term. If there was ever a time to do the right thing for once while incurring the inevitable fury of the Israel lobby it was now. In reality it's many years too late and means nothing, but even so it is one of those very rare moments in politics it's hard to be totally cynical about. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-38421026 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-38422438
