I was born in Poonch (Kashmir) and now I live in Norway. I oppose war and violence and am a firm believer in the peaceful co-existence of all nations and peoples. In my academic work I have tried to espouse the cause of the weak and the oppressed in a world dominated by power politics, misleading propaganda and violations of basic human rights. I also believe that all conscious members of society have a moral duty to stand for and further the cause of peace and human rights throughout the world.
Why does Israel have virtually no moral standing and legitimacy in the eyes of most of the world’s citizens–except in the United States, where the Obama administration, the congress, the Israel lobby, and the media defend its policies and promulgate its lies? What psychological attributes do the leaders of these two nuclear powers share that put them so out of sync with all the rest? A quick glance at Israel’s behavior in 2009 and 2010 suggests some answers.
