  • A Chance to Hold Israel and the US to Account for Genocide

    A Chance to Hold Israel and the US to Account for Genocide

    The International Court of Justice. Photo credit: ICJ On January 11th, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague is holding its first hearing in South Africa’s case against Israel under the Genocide Convention. The first provisional measure South Africa has asked of the court is to order an immediate end to this carnage, […]

  • Tall Tales and Murderous Restraint: Blinken on Gaza and Israel

    The role of the US State Department regarding Israel’s continued obliteration of Gaza is becoming increasingly clear.  As the actions of the Israeli Defence Forces continue, the Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, is full of meaningless statements about restraint and control, the protection of civilians, the imperatives of humanitarianism in war.  As the war continues, […]

  • Killing Australians in Lebanon: Selected Targets; Selective Morality

    The killing of an Australian-Lebanese national Ibrahim Bazzi, his Lebanese wife Shorouq Hammoud, and his brother Ali Bazzi by the Israeli Defence Forces in a missile strike in southern Lebanon, has been an object exercise in selective outrage, selective ethical concern, and, generally speaking, selective morality. The strike took place on a home in the […]

  • The View from Washington: Let the Killing in Gaza Continue

    Bloodletting as form; murder as fashion.  The ongoing campaign in Gaza by Israel’s Defence Forces continues without stalling and restriction.  But the burgeoning number of corpses is starting to become a challenge for the propaganda outlets:  How to justify it?  Fortunately for Israel, the United States, its unqualified defender, is happy to provide cover for […]

  • Palestine’s Days of Glory

    Just two months ago, no one could have predicted the earthquake of October 7, which was by no means a massacre, but a spectacular military operation that decimated the Gaza Brigade in less than 3 hours. And after the deluge of iron and fire that fell on the besieged Palestinian people, in a real war […]

  • Israeli Government’s Mass Terrorism Fortified by Biden and Congress

    Israeli Government’s Mass Terrorism Fortified by Biden and Congress

    A letter to President Joe Biden, dated October 24, 2023, on the Israel-Hamas war by international law specialist Bruce Fein and me, prompted this form letter Biden response: Apart from the usual saying one thing and doing the opposite (e.g., standing for the protection of civilians and a two-state solution while fully arming and backing Israel’s […]

  • The Israeli Mind and the Ultra-Right

    A few days of truce allows a few days to ponder events and examine apartheid Israel’s response to Hamas’ October 7 attack. Engaging in talks and achieving mutual agreements that release captives prompts the question of why wasn’t this done much earlier, before the entire population of Gaza was subjected to brutal bombardments that killed […]

  • Toronto Police Arrest Palestine Activists, Should Target Heather Reisman

    Aggressive pre-dawn police raids on homes and charging individuals with hate crimes for posting social justice messages is legal overreach at best and “thought crimes” reflecting creeping fascism at worst. Truth is Heather Reisman, not those putting up posters, is the one who should have been charged with breaking Canadian law. Between 4:30 and 6 […]

  • Pallywood Tactics: Al-Shifa Hospital and Israel’s Propaganda Effort

    It resembles a chronology of desperation, shifting narratives, and schoolboy howlers. From the outset, the mass lethality of Israeli strikes against Gaza and the collective punishment of its populace needed some justification, however tenuous. If it could be shown, convincingly, that Hamas and its allies had militarised such civilian infrastructure as hospitals, they would become […]
