Apology to Warren Kinsella
On February 2, 2017, Dissident Voice published this article by Yves Engler that stated “In 2014 Kinsella applauded Israel’s killing of 2,200 Palestinians in Gaza.”
As soon as Mr. Kinsella informed us that he objected to the wording of this sentence, in consultation with Mr. Engler, we removed it.
We apologize unreservedly to Mr. Kinsella for the original wording of the article.

One cant understand the Palestinian-zionist conflict without bringing the whole geopolitical context that happened for half a century (and even beyond that) before the actual ethnic cleansing of Palestine:
First, Palestine was inhabited by the native Palestinians (regardless of their religion) for Thousands of years before the zionist thought to build their “jewish state” in Palestine.
