‘We Just Kept Walking’: Artistic Depiction of Palestinian Displacement
By Ramona Wadi “We just kept walking”. To listen to a statement repeated with both assertion and vagueness imparts a sudden realization of walking through terrain which bore lacerations of its own. The displacement enforced upon Palestinians during the Nakba is depicted from afar in this watercolor painting, with the intent to portray the contradictory […]

Baroud in Gulf News: Israel’s Legacy of Terror and Ethnic Cleansing
Zionist colonisation in Palestine began in earnest in 1881, when the leaders of the Zionist Movement in Europe eyed Arab Palestine as an exclusive home for Jews, paying little heed to the indigenous inhabitants of the land. These early ambitions culminated to a bloody, and well-orchestrated terror campaign in 1947-48, resulting in the creation of […]

Radio: Dr. Ramzy Baroud unpacking Trump’s Recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s Capital

Baroud in TRT: Trump’s Move to recognise Israel could overturn US Role in the Region
When then Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump delivered his famous speech before the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in March 2016, he revealed the type of politician he truly is. By Washington’s standards, he was a “good politician”, devoid of any values. In his speech he made many promises to Israel. The large crowd […]
Baroud in Rebelión (traducido): 70 años de promesas rotas. La historia no contada del plan de partición
En una charla reciente ante el grupo de expertos de Chatham House en Londres, el primer ministro israelí Benjamin Netanyahu abordó el tema de un Estado palestino desde una perspectiva intelectual. Antes de que pensemos en establecer un Estado palestino, reflexionó, “es hora de que reevaluemos si el modelo moderno que tenemos de soberanía y […]
Baroud in Al Arabiya: Israeli hands in the American ‘fear industry’
There are about 70 massive walls erected all across the world with the single aim of separating countries and communities from each other. It is all done under the pretext of ‘security’, with the real intention often quite the opposite. Several of these walls are built or are in the process of being constructed by […]
Ramzy Baroud in Middle East Monitor: The Untold Story of the Partition Plan
In a recent talk before Chatham House think-tank in London, Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, approached the issue of a Palestinian state from an intellectual perspective.

Ramzy Baroud in Al Jazeera: How a missing ‘the’ enabled Israeli occupation
When the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 2334 in December 2016, Israeli leaders seethed. Their fury was duly understood to stem from what they perceived as an unprecedented betrayal by the United States. But that was not it at all, since Resolution 2334 – which asserted that Israeli settlements have no legal validity and […]
Baroud in Middle East Monitor: How Israel is exporting its occupation to the US
Israeli footprints are becoming more apparent in the US security apparatus. Such a fact does not bode well for ordinary Americans. US Senate Bill S.720 should have been a wake-up call. The bill, drafted by the Israel lobby group, American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), as part of its “2017 Lobbying Agenda” is set to […]

Baroud in Washington Report on Middle East Affair: The Balfour Declaration Destroyed Palestine, Not the Palestinian People
SOME PROMISES ARE made and kept; others disavowed. But the “promise” made by Arthur James Balfour in what became known as the “Balfour Declaration” to the leaders of the Zionist Jewish community in Britain one hundred years ago was only honored in part: it established a state for the Jews and attempted to destroy the […]

Ramzy Baroud (Tradotto per NenaNews): Cosa c’è dietro l’accordo Fatah-Hamas
L’entusiasmo mostrato dall’Egitto nel mediare tra Hamas e Fatah, le fazioni palestinesi in lotta tra loro, non è il frutto di un’improvvisa presa di coscienza. Il Cairo, infatti, non ha mai esitato a sfruttare le divisioni tra i palestinesi con conseguenze a volte devastanti, e a tenere chiuso il valico di Rafah. L’azione dell’Egitto è, […]
Ramzy Baroud (Traducido del inglés para Rebelión): Las grandes del petróleo, una democracia fallida y los falsos profetas
Hasta cierto punto, Aung San Suu Kyi es un falso profeta. Glorificada por Occidente durante muchos años, se convirtió en un “icono de la democracia” al oponerse a las mismas fuerzas militares que siguen hoy controlando su país, Birmania, en una época en que la coalición occidental dirigida por EEUU mantenía en aislamiento a Rangún […]
Baroud – Al Jazeera Centre for Studies: No Good Options in North Korea
In a barrage of tweets from his New Jersey golf course, US President Donald Trump formulated his country’s foreign policy in the strangest way possible.

Ramzy Baroud (Translated): Big Dil, Demokraci e Dështuar dhe Durpi i Dotës në Mjanmar
Aung San Suu Kyi, “humanitaria e madhe”, ngjan ta ketë humbur integritetin teksa OKB-ja konfirmon më në fund se ajo çfarë po ngjet me muslimanët rohingia të Mjanmarit është spastrim etnik. Suu Kyi nuk ka patur madje kurajën morale për të thënë ca fjalë keqardhjeje për viktimat. Në vend të kësaj, ajo mund të thoshte […]
Ramzy Baroud (tradotto) – Il genocidio dei Rohingya: grandi compagnie petrolifere, democrazia fallita e falsi profeti
Aung San Suu Kyi ha svolto il suo ruolo come previsto, ottenendo l’appoggio della Destra e l’ammirazione della Sinistra. Per questo ha ottenuto il Premio Nobel per la Pace nel 1991: è entrata nel gruppo degli ‘Anziani’ ed è stata pubblicizzata da molti giornalisti e da vari governi come una figura eroica che si doveva […]
Ramzy Baroud (Translated): Η γενοκτονία των Rohingya: Πετρέλαιο, αποτυχημένη δημοκρατία και ψευδοπροφήτες
Ως ένα βαθμό η Aung San Suu Kyi είναι μια ψευδοπροφήτης. Η δύση την εκθείαζε για χρόνια, μετατράπηκε σε «δημοκρατικό ίνδαλμα» γιατί εναντιώθηκε στις ίδιες δυνάμεις στην χώρα της, την Βιρμανία, την ίδια περίοδο που η δυτική συμμαχία υπό τις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες απομόνωναν την Ρανγκούν για την συμμαχία της με τη Κίνα.

Baroud su NenaNews (Traduzione): Tre anni dopo la guerra: parlano i giovani di Gaza
La guerra ha lasciato Gaza in rovina, in quanto più di 17.000 case sono state totalmente distrutte e migliaia di altre strutture, compresi ospedali, scuole e fabbriche sono state demolite o gravemente danneggiate. La guerra ha totalmente distrutto qualunque parvenza di attività economica avesse la Striscia di Gaza. Oggi l’80% di tutti i palestinesi di […]
Baroud in Arab News: Big oil, failed democracy and the world’s shame in Myanmar
Aung San Suu Kyi, the “great humanitarian,” seems to have run out of integrity as the UN finally confirms that what is happening to the Rohingya Muslims of Myanmar is ethnic cleansing. Suu Kyi has not even had the moral courage to utter a few words of sympathy for the victims. Instead, she could only […]
Ramzy Baroud en Monitor de Oriente – El terrorismo que viene: La historia del Daesh aún no ha terminado
La segunda mayor ciudad de Irak, Mosul, ha quedado reducida a escombros. Al fin ha sido conquistada, arrebatada de las manos del Daesh, después de meses de bombardeos despiadados por parte de la coalición de guerra estadounidense, y de una masiva guerra terrestre. Pero ‘victoria’ no es el término que podría asignarse a este momento. […]
