Hagada Hasmalit
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hagada Hasmalit (The Left Bank, Hebrew הגדה השמאלית) is an Israeli radical left wing website. First published in Hebrew in Spring 2002, it is one of the most widely read websites among the radical left in Israel. An English version began in March 2007.
Hagada Hasmalit features articles and commentary by Jewish-Israeli and Palestinian writers from an anti-Zionist, Marxist or anarchist perspective. All oppose the 1967 Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, and critique social and economic issues inside Israel.
Hagada Hasmalit supported various campaigns over the years including the campaign to free Mordechai Vanunu, the struggle against the Israeli West Bank barrier in Bil'in, Tali Fahima and the refuseniks.
Hagada Hasmalit is also a club run by the Communist Party of Israel at 70 Ahad Ha'am Street, Tel Aviv. The Hagada club hosts Jazz evenings, film showings, lectures and performances. Some of the members of the club launched the website.
