NB: Imagine! what would Biden and Trump and good Christian MAGA faithful and Keir Starmer etc., say if this figure were registered for their citizens for EVEN ONE DAY, rather than 710 days? They have sunk so deep in the mire of blood and tears which they have created (since 1948, when they terrorised 760,000… Read More ‘We took the gloves off’: ex-IDF chief confirms Gaza casualties over 200,000.

Israel’s War in Gaza Is Nothing but a War of Annihilation

Iris Leal It is, of course, not the first instance in history in which a regime builds a community of crime, as historian Adam Raz has described, and expands it to the entire nation: war crimes, annihilation of life-support systems, killing 20,000 children Smoke rises as a residential building collapses after an Israeli air strike,… Read More Israel’s War in Gaza Is Nothing but a War of Annihilation

Israel’s Assassination of Memory

The campaign of erasure banishes intellectual inquiry and the dispassionate examination of history. It celebrates magical thinking… The Israeli government bans public commemorations of the Nakba… a day of mourning for Palestinians who seek to remember the massacres and expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians carried out by Jewish terrorist militias in 1948 for this reason. Palestinians… Read More Israel’s Assassination of Memory

The singularity of the Israeli campaign in Gaza lies in the asymmetry of power, its intensity, its enclosure, its direct connection to a settler colonial project. All this leads us back to the 1940s and Raphael Lemkin’s definition of genocide, which he modeled on Nazi-occupied Poland. That line of thought should not be dodged, or… Read More Bulldozing Gaza
