    Will Trump End or Escalate Biden’s Wars?

    A boy sits in rubble in Gaza. Photo Credit: UNICEF When Donald Trump takes office on January 20, all his campaign promises to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours and almost as quickly end Israel’s war on its neighbors will be put to the test. The choices he has made for his incoming […]

  • In Gaza, the West Extols the Suffering of the Executioners

    In Gaza, the West Extols the Suffering of the Executioners

    A CNN article on the suicide of an Israeli soldier who served in Gaza laments the psychological toll of the horrors inflicted by the occupying army — but not from the victims’ perspective, only that of the perpetrators. It even goes so far as to pity the soldier’s inability to eat meat after bulldozing over […]

  • The EU’s Legal Stance on Goods from Israel’s Illegal Settlements

    Never let it be said that the European Union, whose officials self-advertise as staunch defenders of international law, that some bending can take place.  Take, for instance, the recent revelations in The Intercept about legal advice sent to the EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on July 22 on how to respond to the International […]

  • Macron’s Arms Embargo on Israel Crumbles Under Scrutiny

    Emmanuel Macron and the macaron have many similarities. Both the French President and the French dessert are airy and insubstantial and are loved by the rich elite. For these reasons, it was a surprise to many when Macron announced his support for an end to arms deliveries to the Israeli terrorist regime. For a neoliberal […]

  • An Honest Terrorist List Would Include Israel Military

    An Honest Terrorist List Would Include Israel Military

    The Canadian government needs to put the Israeli military on its terrorist list. And no Canadian should assist that organization in any way. Over the past year the IDF has committed a holocaust in Gaza. The IDF has destroyed most of the occupied coastal strip’s buildings, water sources and agricultural land. According to the UN […]

  • The more definitive the proof of Israeli atrocities, the less they get reported

    The coverage of Israeli soldiers pushing three Palestinians off a roof in the West Bank town of Qabatiya – it’s unclear whether the men are dead or near-dead – is being barely reported by the western media, even though it was videoed from two different angles and a reporter from the main US news agency […]

    How the war on Gaza exposed Israeli and western fascism

    Nearly a year into the world’s first live-streamed genocide – which began in Gaza, and is rapidly expanding into the occupied West Bank – the establishment western media still avoid using the term “genocide” to describe Israel’s rampage of destruction. The worse the genocide gets, the longer Israel’s starvation-blockade of the enclave continues, the harder it […]

  • The Canine and the Refugee

    The Canine and the Refugee

    Emad, a thirty-five-year-old Palestinian man, has a dog named Shuhaybar. He’s a small, white fluffy guy with hair hanging over his eyes. Americans call him a West Highland White Terrier. Emad calls him a friend. He looks completely out of place in Gaza, yet somehow he fits. Maybe it’s Emad’s handmade chamois sombrero that he […]
