The extraordinary opposition by Israel (and U.S.) to something as tepid and symbolic as recognizing Palestine is due to the fact that Israel’s objective is complete disappearance of Palestinian nationalism and identity

I don’t like to throw around the word evil, I avoid using it. But there are layers to the evil in this prohibition, depths of cruelty, pointless, gratuitous cruelty, and blatant sadism that simply make it impossible to describe it any other way

In yet another act of collective punishment, Israel has now banned all access to the sea across the entire Gaza Strip—prohibiting both swimming and fishing for Palestinians.

Complete erasure of all traces of Palestinian life

"The U.S.-led coalition’s 2017 assault to expel the Islamic State group from the Iraqi city of Mosul was considered one of the most intense attacks on a city in generations. That nine-month battle killed around 10,000 civilians, a third of them from coalition bombardment" www.pbs.org/newshour/wor...

To me this Opdoc shows how we have erased the boundary between reality and fiction and by doing so we have lost our capacity to be shocked by real violence. The way Israeli society, and much of the world, is unfazed by the extermination of Gaza's population is a paradigmatic example

One of the fundamental meta narratives underlying the inability of Western powers to stop Israel's genocide in Gaza, is the degree of financial, technological and military interconnection jacobin.com/2025/06/us-t...

I am trying to help a friend from Gaza apply to university in Europe. Despite Israel's war of extermination, they need to keep some hope alive. Apart from everything else he needs to provide, they are asking for an English certificate and an interview. They dont accept his AMIDEAST certificate /1

Recognition "is now seen as a prize that will emerge from other measures, including a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the release of Israeli hostages, reform of the PA..." This is a prize indeed, for Israel's ultranationalist government and genocidal campaign www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Important FT editoral, Europe must impose sanctions on Israel: 1. Trade and travel, "restrictions on business services and tourism would be highly disruptive" 2. Immobilize foreign exchange reserves, which would "in time be put to compensation due to Palestinians" www.ft.com/content/8a82...

While shocking and morally reprehensibly, the policing of speech around Israel's genocide in Gaza is fascinating, watching all its myriad manifestations and the mechanisms at work, simple and sophisticated. For those of us who survive it

We can safely say that "Le Chagrin et la Pitie", changed the paradigm in 1969. It took that long for people to realize the level of collaboration of Vichy France and the French with the Third Reich. It is an extraordinary document and remains a deeply stirring watch www.nytimes.com/2025/05/26/m...

Si estas cifras son correctas, demuestra el extraordinario fracaso del Ejército israelí en su estrategia de contra-insurgencia, que por otro lado, era predecible por varias razones: elpais.com/internaciona...

Given that the lack of impartiality and independence was obvious to everyone from day one, I assume that Wood’s real reason for defecting is that he figured out that the project is about to fail: they’ll receive no meaningful funding and those involved may be charged with complicity in war crimes.

A friend of mine in Gaza tells me his mother just wants to die. They are being forced out of their home once again and she just wants to die. I know her well. She is my same age, 48. She is a strong woman, physically and psychologically. Note she doesn’t say she wants to leave Gaza, just die
