Israel has created a false death toll debate that relates only to those who were killed directly by its bombs and gunfire — not the genocide it is waging by other means.
As the Israeli government continues its horrific genocide of Palestinians and the destruction of housing and infrastructure in Gaza, in the third attack on the 42-ship Global Sumud flotilla, drones struck multiple boats in international waters.
Former Green Beret Anthony Aguilar says that so-called aid distribution in Gaza is a trap for Palestinians intended to drive them into concentration camps.
The ship symbolizes the spirit of Palestinian resilience and the growing global resistance to Israel’s collective punishment and starvation policies, says Ann Wright.
Estimates are that it will take 80 years to rebuild Gaza, writes Jonathan Cook. How is a “sovereign and viable Palestinian state,” or a “better future,” going to emerge out of ruins on that scale?
The huge package of documents that South Africa submitted to the ICJ for its genocide case against Israel already needs updating. Every day brings more horrendous news.
In the long term, this indiscriminate violence waged by Netanyahu and those driving Middle East policy in the White House creates adversaries that, sometimes a generation later, outdo in savagery — we call it terrorism.
Hundreds of civil servants have written to David Cameron urging the government to publish its legal advice on whether its support to Israel breaches international law, writes Matt Benson, a former aid official.
There is no ambiguity about Israel causing Gaza to suffer occupation, apartheid and genocide. To counter Israeli denialism, here is a short primer on why these terms are accurate.
