Much like Orwell’s Big Brother in 1984, the Israel Advocacy Machine demands complete allegiance, compliance & submission. And it often goes to extraordinary lengths to silence & discipline those who question or reject its deceptive & deceitful propaganda. www.counterpunch.org/2026/04/20/b...

Big Brother and the Israel Advocacy Machine

Israel and its staunch supporters are losing ground on all of these public relations fronts. Despite the killing of hundreds of journalists and media workers, heart-wrenching reports from Gaza, includ...

I’ve written a new piece —"The American Psychological Association and the Weaponization of Antisemitism"—in which I describe APA's failure to (1) reject the weaponization of antisemitism, and (2) stand strongly in support of Palestinian rights, dignity, and freedom. royeidelson.com/the-american...

It is not antisemitic to support Palestinian rights, and scholars should know that.

The dangers posed by the antisemitism of white nationalists and similar groups encouraging violence against Jews are very real and should not be ignored or minimized. Unfortunately, however, more prom...

UN rightly calls for the release of Abu Zubaydah. There should be no such thing as a “forever prisoner”, never charged and never tried in a democracy. The two are fundamentally incompatible. www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...

Over the past year, I’ve been dismayed by 1) the weaponization of false charges of antisemitism to silence pro-Palestinian activism & 2) the failure of many within the psychology profession to combat this destructive silencing.

The Guantánamo (yes it's still open) prisoner population is now 27; 3 were transferred out in the last few days. Of those remaining, 15 were cleared for release many years ago, 4 "forever prisoners" have never been tried, 2 are serving sentences, and 6 are on trial. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/18/u...

The prisoners were airlifted from Guantánamo Bay in a secret operation nearly a year after they admitted to serving as foot soldiers for the accused Indonesian terrorist leader Hambali.

I have found Israeli historian Lee Mordechai’s efforts painstakingly documenting and analyzing the horrors that Israel has inflicted on Gaza over the past 14 months to be essential reading. This week he issued an updated version and it’s available here: witnessing-the-gaza-war.com/wp-content/u...
