  • Much of the World Awakens to a Decades Long Genocide

    Much of the World Awakens to a Decades Long Genocide

    Several times over the past two decades, I have written about the malevolence of Israel (and by that I mean Zionist Israel, which is predominantly Jewish, although there are likeliest quislings among the Palestinian ranks, e.g., Mahmoud Abbas). Israel is part of Historical Palestine. However, the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine wrested a […]

  • Western Governments’ Submission: From Assisting Israel to Obeying Israel

    Israel’s ongoing destruction of the Palestinian community distressed much of the world but hope and optimism that the destruction had a limit, the oppression would exhaust itself, and the destruction would not reach beyond its present borders contained the anxieties. An overly aggressive and duplicitous response to the October 7 attack changed attitudes from that […]

    “Extremely Harrowing”: British Surgeon’s Gaza Testimony Buried By The “MSM”

    Propaganda by omission is a dominant feature of the ‘mainstream’ news media. Indeed, it is a requirement. Rather than serving the public interest by fully exposing the brutal machinations of power, state-corporate media shield Western governments and their allies from scrutiny and focus the public’s attention on the crimes of Official Enemies. Israel’s genocidal attack […]

  • Gaza Genocide 2.0

    The most widely reported figure currently used for Palestinian casualties in Gaza since October 7, 2023, is more than 35,000 killed and 78,000 wounded. These are only the civilian casualties, reported by the Ministry of Health. More than two-thirds are women and children. Combatant casualties are not included.

    Gaza is our moment of truth

    A protest by students at George Washington University. Probal Rashid SIPA USA) Powerful student movements in the 1960s and 1970s shook the world’s conscience to end America’s slaughter in Vietnam and Cambodia. The moral force of Black people rising together in their pain and rage against legislated racism changed the social fabric of America, ending […]

    The Arsenal of Genocide: the U.S. Weapons That Are Destroying Gaza

    Protesters block the entrance to the BAE factory in Kent, UK. (Photo credit: Reuters) On May 8, 2024, as Israel escalated its brutal assault on Rafah, President Biden announced that he had “paused” a delivery of 1,700 500-pound and 1,800 2,000-pound bombs, and threatened to withhold more shipments if Israel went ahead with its full-scale […]

  • Unfurling Love from the Window

    On April 30, when Columbia University student protesters took over Hamilton Hall, they renamed it “Hind’s Hall,” dropping a large banner out the windows above the building’s entrance. This was a hall famously occupied by students in the 1968 protests against the Vietnam War and against Jim Crow racism in the United States. The students […]

  • A Clubbable Admission: Palestine’s Case for UN Membership

    I find it rather difficult to make it clear to my children why we are not eligible, for from one point of view it isn’t quite clear to me. X, “The Jew and the Club,” The Atlantic, October 1924. It must surely make certain ethnic and religious groups reflect, notably those languishing in minority status […]

  • A Modest Proposal: The UN General Assembly and Palestinian Recognition

    Despite being described in some circles as such, the latest vote in the United Nations General Assembly on Palestine’s status is hardly extraordinary.  For one, it does not vest the Palestinian territories with statehood but burnishes its credentials to join the club.  It pushes those scrappy, desperate entities so despoiled and abused into deeper involvement […]
