CrossTalk: Obama Doctrine – with Ramzy Baroud, Stephen Schlesinger, and Brian Becker
How should we describe the Obama administration’s foreign policy – idealistic, pragmatic, neither, or merely erratic? On the one hand, Obama is reaching out to Cuba and Burma, but on the other he’s backing coups in Egypt and Ukraine. Is there such a thing as the Obama doctrine? CrossTalking with Ramzy Baroud, Stephen Schlesinger, and […]

Ramzy Baroud at Al Jazeera’s Inside Story: Seeking a solution for Egypt’s troubled Sinai Peninsula
It has been occupied and fought over, fuelled accusations of lawlessness and neglect, and seen promises made and broken to its people. But ongoing concerns about security in Egypt’s troubled Sinai Peninsula have been answered with successive military responses. And the threat now posed by an armed group linked to the Islamic State of Iraq […]

Is the Yemen crisis increasingly sectarian? The MEE team considers this question – and what consequences this could have for the country and the region. Short version: Full version:
Avec Netanyahou, plus de faux-semblants : fin de la « relation spéciale »
Imaginez qu’un candidat à la présidentielle américaine lance un appel à ses partisans un jour d’élection en faisant la déclaration suivante : « L’administration républicaine est en danger. Les électeurs noirs se rendent en masse aux bureaux de vote. Les ONGs libérales les amènent en autobus ». Même dans un pays où Chris Matthews est […]
Palestinian Nation Has Right to Prosecute Israel at ICC: Analyst
Press TV has conducted an interview with Ramzy Baroud, the editor of the Palestine Chronicle in London, and Richard Hellman, the president of the Middle East Research Center from Washington DC, to discuss the possibility of Israel’s prosecution at The International Criminal Court (ICC) over its crimes against Palestinians. Baroud believes that Palestinians, like any […]
Expert : les raids aériens ne servent qu’à attiser le conflit au Yémen
Le chroniqueur et spécialiste du Moyen-Orient Ramzy Baroud a expliqué dans une interview à RT que les raids aériens contre les positions des Houthis au Yémen ne servent qu’à attiser le conflit.
Debate: Will ICC Charge Israel with War Crimes?
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has welcomed the ‘State of Palestine’ as its 123rd member, a move that can pave the way for Palestinians to prosecute Israel for its war crimes. In this edition of the Debate, Press TV’s guests Ramzy Baroud, editor of the Palestine Chronicle from London, and Richard Hellman, president of the Middle East Research Center from Washington […]
The Roadmap for a Palestinian Strategy
It is not difficult to speak of the Palestinians’ need to surmount ideological, factional and political divides. But the challenge is not as easy as a mere collective nod of agreement that division is indeed at the heart of the Palestinian crisis. Real, urgent action is needed. Firstly, the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) of Mahmoud […]
The Collapse of the Obama Doctrine in Yemen
For a long time, the US seemed invulnerable to what even Yemen analysts admit is an intricate subject to understand, let alone attempt to explain in a straightforward manner. The US drones buzzed overhead independent from all of this. They “took out” whomever they suspected was an al-Qaeda affiliate. President Barack Obama was even revealed to have […]
Baroud, White and Alsaafin: What’s next for Palestinians? (Video Debate)
After Benjamin Netanyahu’s decisive victory in the recent Israeli elections, what’s next for Palestinians? Join our three speakers as they delve into whether or not the Joint List will have any impact in the Knesset, the Palestinian Authority’s stance from Netanyahu’s re-election, and if Palestinians will be to unite under one banner. In this clip […]
Avec Netanyahu, plus de faux-semblants… Que du racisme à l’état pur !
Imaginez qu’un candidat présidentiel américain lance un appel à ses partisans un jour d’élection en faisant la déclaration suivante : « L’Administration républicaine est en danger. Les électeurs Noirs se rendent en masse aux bureaux de vote. Les ONGs libérales les amènent en autobus. » Même dans un pays où Chris Matthews est une célébrité des médias et […]
Red Card Israeli Racism
With Fearless campaigner for Palestine, Baroness Jenny Tonge in Cardiff today, a day in which Wales said it very loudly: “Fair Play for Palestine: Don’t Play with Israeli Apartheid”. My keynote speech went very well, as a large audience and an impressive list of speakers, unionists, footballers .. came to take part in the event […]
Les Palestiniens de 48 sont une composante majeure de la cause palestinienne
Info-Palestine.eu : Le score réalisé lors des dernières élections israéliennes par la Liste Commune – fédérant plusieurs organisations politiques représentant les arabes israéliens (ou Palestiniens de 1948) – place cette liste en 3e position à La Knesset, avec 14 sièges. Peut-on considérer ce score électoral comme un évènement majeur, spécialement dans un contexte de renforcement des […]
Eight Urgent ‘Musts’ Needed for Palestinians to Defeat Apartheid
1. Abbas, Oslo must go First, the most difficult obstacle to overcome is the stronghold of Mahmoud Abbas and his corrupt circle on Palestine’s political discourse at home. This is not an outcome of Abbas’s particular savvy or the genius of his class. The post-Oslo circle only exists to maintain the status quo: US interests […]

Netanyahu the Mythbuster: ‘Special Relationship’ No More
For Netanyahu’s main challenger, Isaac Herzog, Palestinians hardly existed. The occupation was a non-issue for him and for most Israeli political rivals for that matter. His foreign policy programme was either identical to Netanyahu’s or was largely based on deferring foreign policy issues to a later date. The soft-speaking Herzog had no qualms about keeping […]
Teroristički napad zbog mjesta za parkiranje?!
Nedavna egzekucija troje američkih muslimana na Univerzitetu u Sjevernoj Karolini nije bilo obično ubistvo, niti je ubica obični prestupnik. Sama ubistva, njihov kontekst, te reakcije medija i zvaničnika na ovaj strašni događaj su svjedočanstvo ogromnog zla koje se izrodilo otkada su Sjedinjene Države otpočele svoj beskonačni „Rat protiv terora“ protiv nekad određenog, a nekad neodređenog […]
Dalia Khalifa: Gaza’s ‘Unbreakable’ Girl
“Dalia’s face charts the pain of Gaza’s children. But also the unrelenting beauty and courage of a generation that seems determined to withstand the seemingly insurmountable hardships,” commented Ramzy Baroud, Palestinian author and journalist. “The fact that life never stood still for the nine year old girl, that she is back at school, although the […]
Qu’est-il advenu de l’intellectuel arabe ?
Toutes les fois qu’un nouveau poème de Mahmoud Darwish était publié par le journal Al Quds, je me précipitais au kiosque à journaux d’Abu Aymen sur la place principale de camp de réfugiés. C’était un endroit bondé et poussiéreux où les taxis délabrés attendaient des passagers, entourés de vendeurs de poissons et de légumes. La […]
Just Geography ..
One message I received today with the subject line: ‘your geography teacher’, was particularity heartening. The sender is a geography professor in an American university. He simply wrote to thank me for the article: ‘The Secret History of My Geography Teacher, also Cofounder of Hamas’. But what I liked most about the email is that […]
Islamic State as a Western Phenomenon?
Not only is IS to a degree an alien movement in the larger body politic of the Middle East, it also seems to be a partly western phenomenon, a hideous offspring resulting from western neocolonial adventures in the region, coupled with alienation and demonisation of Muslim communities in western societies. By “western phenomenon”, I refrain […]
Search for Moral Authority
When I was younger, and Said was still alive, I always wondered what his impressions of certain events were. His non-conformist political style — let alone his literary genius — did more than convey information and offer sound analyses. It also offered guidance and moral direction. After he promised me an interview, he wrote a […]
The Arab World’s Search for Moral Authority
Has the Arab intellectual been reduced to a bubblehead on some agenda-driven television channel saying exactly what is expected of him or her to say? The number of published Arab authors and higher education degree holders must have grown exponentially in recent years as a result of the proliferation of well-funded universities throughout the Middle […]
The Secret History of My Geography Teacher, also Co-founder of Hamas
Hasanat’s oldest son is Yaser, thus he was “Abu Yaser” – father of Yaser. I have never met Yaser, but I knew Tariq Dukhan well. Both Tariq and Yaser, along with two other teenagers, started the militant wing of Hamas, known as Izz el-Din al-Qassam Brigades. Tariq went to my school in Nuseirat. He was […]
The Arab Intellectual is Resting
A novel by Abdul Rahaman Munif represented the pain of a past generation, and the aspiration of many to come. Language was timeless then. One would read what Tunisia’s Abu al-Qasim al-Shabbi wrote in the 1930’s and Palestine’s Samih al-Qassim much later and still feel that the words echoed the same sentiment, anger, hope, pride, […]
