Opening Gaza to the Foreign Press Corps
The Fourth Estate may not be in a good way, corrupted and compromised as it is, but in some instances, it remains the only light cast over the predations and ghastliness of power.

Those Who Condemn Hamas Lack Empathy And Humility
Whenever I see someone going out of their way to denounce the Palestinian resistance while expressing some vaguely pro-Palestine sentiment, I take it as an admission that they aren’t capable of basic human empathy.

A Shield of Lies: Netanyahu’s Battle Against the World
It was a sign of someone desperate that his message has failed to take wing and make its way to better lands.
