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.

We the Exploited
Americans have become easy prey for hackers, scammers, snitches, spies, and con artists. But don’t be fooled into thinking the government is protecting you.

Viciousness Regnant: Humanitarianism as a Weasel Word
It may be time to reconsider the use of such words as “humanitarian” and “humanitarianism”.
