Phil Weiss of Mondoweiss has written a troubling article documenting the power of the Jewish community in using its funding to control members of congress concerning their votes on of the flow of money to support Israel. Recent events give illustration to this phenomenon. We quote from that article. Next, our feature presentation this week is a speech by journalist Ian Williams, delivered at a forum sponsored by the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs. It picks up on our examination of the influence of the Israeli lobby on global politics.
This Week In Palestine (a weekly part of Truth and Justice Radio) is an award-winning three-quarter-hour segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. It's a regular part of Truth and Justice Radio, aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, streaming live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; TJR's website, truthandjusticeradio.org, has a link to This Week In Palestine archives back thru 1-6-2008; editions are also accessible by navigating through our playlists. (At this important time, TJR airs occasional Palestine coverage IN ADDITION to that provided by This Week In Palestine.) We hope you'll write to us at tjradio@fastmail.com if you rebroadcast our work, or have questions or comments.
