Remembering a Genocide in the Midst of Another
This month on 11th July 2024, the UN commemorated the Srebrenica Genocide of 1995 with official statements and speeches by dignitaries, memorial services, moments of silence and designating a day for remembering what has been called the greatest atrocity in modern Europe. What is ironic, however, is the fact that the world comes together to […]

Why Care about Palestinians?
A man who goes by the online moniker of @Travelingisraelinfo headlines his short video very curiously: Why do you care about Palestinians? Even before listening to the video, the answer is so obvious. The Palestinians are humans aren’t they? Shouldn’t humans care for each other? Palestinians are being genocided.

Starmer learnt that the Price of Power was Support for Genocide
By a crushing majority, the 17 judges of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled more than five months ago that Israel was “plausibly” committing genocide in Gaza.

Letter to the Editor

For me, Israel’s recent threats to the chief prosecutor of the International […]

Israel is Dragging the World into Darkness
Israel must be held accountable for the suffering it is inflicting on Gaza (Omar Ashtawy APA images) Israel does not belong in the modern world. It is the child of European colonialism and Europe’s genocidal anti-Semitism, imposed by force and fire and Western guilt on a land already inhabited by an indigenous people. Israel is […]

Can Victims Transform Co-annihilation into Co-existence?
The history of the Holocaust was an important part of my childhood in Holland. One of my best friends was a Jewish-Dutch boy who lived in the house behind mine. I knew that I couldn’t play with him on Saturdays, because he had to go to Hebrew school. I also remember that he had certificates […]
