  • Echoes of Conflict

    Europe was burning. Or so I had heard in many media outlets before I boarded a flight to Europe. According to various hysterical outlets in the West, philistines were surging up through Gibraltar and other southbound nodes of ingress to destabilize European culture, that high-flown redoubt of wine and song and literature and art.

  • Why does Israel destroy hospitals?

    Hospitals are prime strategic targets of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza. The Nasser hospital in Rafah is the only major one still standing, along with a handful of smaller ones.

  • Absence of Evidence: Israel’s Case Against UNRWA

  • Western Media and Politician Complicity in US-Israeli Massacre of Palestinian Children

    The 2023-2024 Gaza Massacre has continued now for nearly 4 months while the World looks on.

  • Not All of the Genocide is Being Livestreamed

    The Palestinian victims of genocide in Gaza are vastly underreported. The figure commonly used will soon top 30,000. But these are only the verified and named victims killed directly by Israeli weaponry. The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor is perhaps the only authoritative source that reports more than 35,000, by adding a (conservative) estimate of those […]

  • NY Times LIED About October 7th R@pe Story!

    The New York Times recently published a piece describing the horrible rape and murder of an Israeli woman who attended the Nova Music Festival that came under attack by Hamas.
