  • Israel’s Genocidal Antisemitism Against the Arab Civilians of Gaza

    “It should never have happened,” an elderly Holocaust survivor of a Nazi death camp told the New York Times. He was referring to the colossal failure on October 7, of Israel’s touted high-tech military and intelligence operations that opened the door to Hamas’ attack on Israeli soldiers and civilians. In many parliamentary countries, the government ministers […]

  • Gaza Water 2023

    Gaza Water 2023

    Before the genocide, Palestinians in Gaza struggled to access clean water, with 97% of Gaza’s freshwater resources contaminated due to the Israeli blockade and repeated bombardments. Many families in poverty were forced to spend a third or more of their income to purchase water from unregulated sources, with the hopes that it is safe. Now, […]

  • From Gaza with Rage

    The repeating Israeli airstrikes on the Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza are beyond my own comprehension.  For at least 10 of the last 40 days, missiles have rained down on the most densely populated refugee camp in all of Gaza. And it is not just the days; it is also the nights. The bombing is […]

  • Genocide is Israel’s Strategy

    Israel is losing the battle. They cannot afford to remain fully mobilized this long, even with unlimited US financial support. It is estimated that despite limited commercial flights, more than a quarter million Israelis have left the country. This is also the number that have evacuated settlements in both the south, in a large radius […]

  • Showboating for War: Johnson and Morrison in Israel

    Banished Prime Ministers are an irritation.  They clog the airwaves of punditry with their views about how things were and how things should be.  But even there, degrees of severity and competence should be observed.  The more noble sorts would pursue the goals of peace, even as they bag large wads of cash in stating […]

  • Denying the Security of the Oppressed Imperils the Security of the Oppressor

    Denying the Security of the Oppressed Imperils the Security of the Oppressor

    Presumably, if Israeli Jews were not occupying the majority of historical Palestine, laying siege to Gaza, oppressing, humiliating, dehumanizing, liquidating, and refusing statehood to the Palestinian people that Hamas, a Palestinian resistance, would not have been driven to launch an attack on Israelis. Placing the Palestinians under oppression, occupation, and siege was an undeniable denial […]

  • What the BBC Fails to Tell You about October 7

    What the BBC Fails to Tell You about October 7

    The BBC’s Lucy Williamson was taken once again this week to view the terrible destruction at a kibbutz community just outside Gaza attacked on October 7. As we have been shown so many times before, the Israeli homes were riddled with automatic fire, both inside and out. Sections of concrete wall had holes in them, […]

  • With Hamas gone, Gaza still wouldn’t be free

    With Hamas gone, Gaza still wouldn’t be free

    It shocks me that in my threads I keep coming across variations of the following tweet: The Palestinians have it within them to rise up against Hamas to free themselves. Or Hamas can willingly surrender. Two real choices there. This view isn’t just being promoted in bad faith by Israeli apologists. It seems to resonate […]

  • Mass Media Needs to Probe Deeper into Israel’s Invasion of Gaza

    In the midst of extensive coverage of the war in Gaza, there are questions that the U.S. mass media should address: 1. How did Hamas, with tiny Gaza surrounded by a 17-year Israeli blockade, subjected to unparalleled electronic surveillance, with spies and informants, and augmented by an overwhelming air, sea and land military presence, manage […]

  • Gaza: Its Not a War; Its Genocide

    It is carnage in Gaza. Over 5,700 Palestinian civilians are currently estimated to have been murdered by the relentless Israeli assault, 2,055 are children. More than 15,000 people have been injured, including 5,364 children. In the West Bank around 100 have been killed and at least 1,650 injured. The Israeli bombardment has so far destroyed […]
