Enabled by the USA, UK & servile Arab states, Israel has slaughtered an average of 122 Palestinians EVERY DAY for 629 days

The international political-economic system is not just a disgrace, its a corrupt and vicious murder machine. This is genocidal mania in broad daylight. No one will do anything to stop this massacre. We can only watch the IDF (which styles itself ‘the most moral army in the world’), bombs hospitals, refugee camps, schools, and ‘safe… Read More Enabled by the USA, UK & servile Arab states, Israel has slaughtered an average of 122 Palestinians EVERY DAY for 629 days

You can oppose Israel’s policies without killing Jewish people

NB: Most of what this author writes is rational and humane. The violent attacks on Jewish Americans simply for being Jews is a horrible crime. The concepts of collective guilt and the inter-generational transfer of guilt are poisonous doctrines. Antisemitism is one of these, and began as a Christian form of bigotry.

Israel Will Have to Pay a Heavy but Inevitable Price for Hostage-release Deal

After talking about ‘total victory’ for months, Netanyahu folded under Trump’s pressure. The emerging deal means Israel will forgo the obliteration of Hamas’ regime, leaving the terror group free to entrench its position in Palestinian society – but there is no choice: the hostages and soldiers being killed in Gaza for no reason are out… Read More Israel Will Have to Pay a Heavy but Inevitable Price for Hostage-release Deal
