  • A Moral Principle: Denounce the Bigotry of In-Group Members before Criticizing the Bigotry of Out-Group Members

    Contempt for the Arab population is deeply rooted in Zionist thought. — Noam Chomsky, The Fateful Triangle: The United States, Israel and the Palestinians, 1983, 2015. This is the holiday season for various groups of people. Some people will celebrate Xmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc during the winter season. Others will celebrate just because celebrating is […]

  • Latin America and the Caribbean stand with Palestine

    The countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, with a few notable exceptions, have been critical of Israel’s ongoing campaign of genocide in Gaza. Perhaps more than any other region, they have expressed their solidarity with Palestine. Most recognize that the partnership between US imperialism and Israeli Zionism applies not only to Palestine, but also […]

  • Israeli Government’s War Crimes

    Israeli Government’s War Crimes

    The humiliation of the U.S. government, which is actively complicit in providing the weaponry, funding, and UN vetoes backing the Israeli government’s attack on the civilian Palestinians/Arabs in tiny Gaza, is in plain view daily. All in the name of the unasked American people and taxpayers. Earlier this week, at a House of Representatives’ hearing, […]

  • Genocide: The Gaze from the Abyss

    Genocide: The Gaze from the Abyss

    Left-progressive websites don’t always get it right. Take Media Lens, for example. In October, we discussed the corporate media invention of so-called ‘disinformation experts’. We lampooned the claim that although journalists are ‘working within profit-maximising, billionaire-owned, advertiser-dependent, government-subsidised media, they are nevertheless exposing “disinformation” without the slightest trace of bias’. Last May, the BBC unveiled […]

  • Your Enemies Destroyed One Palestine; My Wounds Populated Many Palestines

    Malak Mattar (Palestine), A Life Stolen Before It Had Begun, 2023. The indecency of the phrase ‘humanitarian pause’ is obvious. There is nothing humanitarian about a brief interlude between bouts of horrendous violence. There is no true ‘pause’, merely the calm before the storm continues. We are witnessing the bureaucratisation of immorality, the use of […]

  • Gaza: The Masks are off

    As the genocide in Gaza resumes, it becomes ever more clear that the Operation “Al-Aqsa Flood”, launched by the Palestinian Resistance on October 7, and the events that followed, have not only destroyed the prestige of the Israeli army: they completely unmasked the hypocrisy of the West, who is not only silent but accomplice of […]

  • Palestine’s Days of Glory

    Just two months ago, no one could have predicted the earthquake of October 7, which was by no means a massacre, but a spectacular military operation that decimated the Gaza Brigade in less than 3 hours. And after the deluge of iron and fire that fell on the besieged Palestinian people, in a real war […]

  • The Israeli Mind and the Ultra-Right

    A few days of truce allows a few days to ponder events and examine apartheid Israel’s response to Hamas’ October 7 attack. Engaging in talks and achieving mutual agreements that release captives prompts the question of why wasn’t this done much earlier, before the entire population of Gaza was subjected to brutal bombardments that killed […]

  • A New Mood in the World Will Put an End to the Global Monroe Doctrine

    A New Mood in the World Will Put an End to the Global Monroe Doctrine

    Tagreed Darghouth (Lebanon), from the series The Tree Within, a Palestinian Olive Tree, 2018. Every day since 7 October has felt like an International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, with hundreds of thousands gathering in Istanbul, a million in Jakarta, and then yet another million across Africa and Latin America to demand an end to the brutal attack being carried out by […]

  • Toronto Police Arrest Palestine Activists, Should Target Heather Reisman

    Aggressive pre-dawn police raids on homes and charging individuals with hate crimes for posting social justice messages is legal overreach at best and “thought crimes” reflecting creeping fascism at worst. Truth is Heather Reisman, not those putting up posters, is the one who should have been charged with breaking Canadian law. Between 4:30 and 6 […]
